    Likes cheesecake unironically.

    This winter is way too warm. It's one thing that it hasn't snowed so far, but this total lack of sub-zero temperatures is a bit much. It's more like an extended autumn. Or as if the seasons skipped winter and went straight to spring.


    I probably should be glad, since I don't tolerate coldness that well (but in turn can better endure heat), but it makes me a bit uneasy.

    Read discussion in the IJBMer Updates thread about sex and Moe.


    Next page has a discussion on linguistics.

    I assure you I meant that in an amused, nostalgic sort of way. :)

    I know, I was just kidding. Besides, I'd never use "Oh noes" seriously. :P

    I (finally) have an appointment with my doctor on Wednesday to see about getting a referral to someone who can help me out with my issues a bit. Hopefully this works. :)


     


    On a lighter topic, fuck shoveling. The one time so far where we get out of a scheduled swim practice this year, and I have to get all sweaty anyway. >:/

    So, mom insisted that I leave my car at school and have her help picking it up later, getting a ride with my cousin. We went back to get it, and found that someone had wiped my car off for me a while ago. That made me a little happier. The mounds of snow around my car didn't.

    I don't think I've seen snow since 2010.

    If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.

    Yeah, that's about how it was back when I lived in Tuscaloosa. I live somewhere suited for human habitation now, though.

    Something I read just now:


    http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/NetorareGenre


    >As one might effortlessly predict, many people seriously detest this genre/trope. It might have to do with the oft-idealised nature of relationships in the anime/manga culture, along with the fanbase's obsession with purity — a phenomenon apparent by the popularity of tropes like Sacred First Kiss,Lolicon, Yamato Nadeshiko, or Moe. That is to say, Otakudom seems to have a strong connection with a specific, sugary perception of romantic relationships, built around pure, sincere, genuine commitment. Hence Netorare, being at the opposite side of the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism, tends to rub people the wrong way.


    Basically they're saying "otaku's conception of relationships is way too pure and sugary, and that's why cheating bothers them". Am I the only one who's put off by this? Like, "people with healthier and more realistic conceptions of relationships aren't bothered by cheating?"

    I just got to Cave Johnston's lemons speech in Portal 2.


    God, I love this game.

    Yeah, that's... silly.  That person you quoted seems to be thinking waaaaaaaaaay too hard about this.  NTR bothers people because most people don't like being cheated on and also most people don't have a fetish for it, which amounts to absolutely no reason to be interested in it.  It has absolutely nothing to do with how people expect relationships to be portrayed at all.

    Just finished Portal 2.  I loved that game so much.


    I think I honestly liked it better than the first game.

    That's the only thing that puts you off about that page? The constant assumption that everyone visiting the site is an anime-obsessed loser was one of the reasons I got fed up with the site. And they can't resist putting in those DAMN lesbianism references, could they?
