Hurray for internet drama! And other stuff, boring.

'Kay den, well, that stalker-ish guy took my stuff down off his site; that was decent of him at least. I can't say I'm thrilled with the RPF aspect and the whole "post stuff about the band's family!" thing he does, but at least he took my stuff down. That was nice. Now I'll tell you a little something wack, but I could be wrong. It's INTERNETz DRAMA so it's going to be pretty fun. I got the heads-up on this when someone posted a thread about this Jared-stalking guy and the OP also made a link pointing out all of the nabbed pictures and stuff. She (the OP - I'm assuming it's a she by the name,) also said that she was pretty sure that person posted on the board, too.

I've mentioned recently that there's one guy there who's got a huge problem with me and posts all of this nonsense all over the board in general, right? He's the one I mentioned a few posts back, who posted that stuff with the N word, that awful cartoon. He does something like that pretty much daily, actually--he's got a problem with black people. (And Indian people, and women, and whatever else.) Anyway, he seems to have a love-hate thing with the band, like for instance, he once jumped all over me for criticizing their silly award performance, (yeah, it was pretty silly!) yet he does a fair amount of bashing himself. It's really weird. In every thread he posts in, he tries to turn the conversation around to "fangirls" even if no one has said anything. He insists that people are saying vulgar things about Jared when no one actually has, then he'll make up things that he thinks people are talking about--clearly it's all in his head, but he seems to think it's really going on. And it seems, well, a little proprietary sometimes, actually. And not just a little creepy.

Anyway, so someone PMed me tonight to tell me that this same guy had made up a few more forum names (he's got over a dozen by now, and everyone knows it's him because his avatars are usually Japanese porn,) which is weird, since he's always freaking out about this one other troll who has tons of screen names. Anyway, so someone PMed me to tell me that this guy had made up a few more screen names, one of which is a kind of take-off on my screen name (he's even signing off the way I do,) and in the other ones, he's bumping my old threads, and starting other threads saying things he thinks I've said (most of which I haven't.)

So all of a sudden, it starts to come together a little bit. The OP saying the Jared-stalking guy posts on the board ... the creepy regular poster with his weird Jared possessiveness and love/hate thing going on ... me getting on that guy's case for taking my pics ... and now this guy on the board freaking out over everything I post all of a sudden and pretending to be me. Coinkidink?

The guy is preeeetty weird. And, there's my INTERNETZ DRAMA for today. For the year, hopefully. ;)

So anyway, I was glad to hear this morning that my Mom hadn't caught whatever godawful 14 hour virus I'd gotten yesterday, and off they went on their 35th anniversary vaca today, good for them. As for yours truly, well I had told Sifu on Saturday that I wouldn't be in today. Which left me with the whole day free for playing snook-ah for doing whatever I wanted. I figured I'd play some Twilight Princess (and let me just stop myself for a second to say that I wish I didn't have to write that out everytime, but it makes me cringe to type "TP" so, well...) but then I realized how close I am to the end and I don't want to finish it just yet. Then I figured I'd write instead, because I have a really good scene coming up. I did neither. I honestly just looked at stuff on the internet most of the day. I busted out Ye Olde MovieMaker for a bit to see if I couldn't get back into the swing of making videos. I did, a bit, but MovieMaker crashes every five or so minutes, so that just frustrated me. I did laundry. I microwaved dinner. I took a shower. I did some situps and leg lifts.

GOD! I even bored myself today. Here and I had been aching for some days off in a row, since I'd literally been out of the house each day of the week for months, and now I've got those days I just don't know what to do with myself and I find myself wasting this time that I wanted so desperately. Trying to figure out INTERNET MYSTERIES!!111 ;D

Tomorrow? Oh, yes with the writing! I will get on that. I have the mojo; it's there. I was on a roll Saturday, actually; all the puking yesterday kinda knocked it out of me, but it will come back. I promise not to writer-ism and have everyone vomiting. ^_^

Right now a little reading and then bed. I will not fight sleep. For realz.

Underneath The Rotting Pizza, or: FF7, a retrospect in squeeing

Final Fantasy VII is ten years old, people. This calls for a celebration in my brain blog.

FF7 is how I met shikei_and_cz, balyn and derumi about seven years ago, mostly through FF7 art. Mostly through CZ's art. (Back then, to me, she was ChocoZell or, less often, Amano-chan.) Since I've got keiki 'ohana on my blog these days, I can't exactly discuss the art itself, ;D but god, the talent. Blew my mind, still does. So I have Sephiroth to thank for you guys, because he was my first Final Fantasy love. Next came Reeve, and then, towards the end of the game, my fannish adoration of Cloud Strife. To the point of attempting my own ( crappy fanart. )

I could never do him justice. >_> But I liked to try.

So now let there be a time of sharing, caring... of love, of laughter, of healing... of communal squealing and squeeing. Let us all band together and share our fannish loves, our dear memories of Final Fantasy VII. Tell me what first poqued your interest:


Tell me what thrilled you:


And why, once you met Clod, you could never go do someone else:


And why you couldn't refuse:


How did you feel about going from this:


To this:


Tell me: Gloriosa Generosa, or hareu no hanekata? "You look like a bear wearing a marshmallow" or, "This guy are sick"?

Some of my own fangirling> My notes on watching Advent Children for the very first time. (Warning: INTENSE fangirl squeeing in that one.) My thoughts on first watching Last Order. My small screengrabs from Advent Children. HUGE screengrabs. And something I actually took some time to write up: Final Fantasy VII: the whole complicated story. Also, the stuff I loved most about Final Fantasy VII.

Now you! Ganbatte! Celebrate, do whatever ... whatever YOU want, Daddy! But I wanna see some fanpoodling around these parts!
