Mock. Mockmockmock. Mockity-mock-mock

11:24am: A Rose by any other name would still be as spoilery.
The new Doctor Who series is scheduled to be shown in the UK at the end of March. However, an un-tidied-up copy of the first episode has already been leaked onto the internet. The Beeb are annoyed.

Hence, the inevitable spoiler wank (and, yes, here be spoilers):

Damn Americans and your spoilers!

How dare you post spoilers behind a cut tag that I inevitably must click on because I have no will power?!

Note to computer: Download faster, goldangit!

11:46am: It's been far too long since there was Wicked wank
I'm not a racist or anything, but are, like, black people taking over Wicked? Oh, and can you all please give me information so I can do a school report on it, too? kthnxbai!!!

And the cries of "HAS WICKED TAUGHT YOU NOTHING?!?!?!" begin.

Quick! Before the delete-happy mods get to it!

ETA: Too late! Deleted. Copy here. not all of it, but most. Also, geocities, so be gentle with it.

4:26pm: Plagerism? Plagarism? Oh, Plagiarism!
Anyone want more plagiarism wank?

So, many months ago, a fellow named Ozmandayus (Shawn) was outed. See, he'd spent the past few years plagiarizing from X-Files fandom in Buffy, Smallville, Dark Angel, and Power Rangers. The linked web site apparently contains evidence that he'd plagiarized some 30 authors in 9 stories.

And for some reason, after months in hiding, he suddenly returns.
( The Return )

( The rebuttal . . .  )
And thus, the responses:( We LOVE your stories Shawn, and don't really care that they were plagiarized . . .  )

( Incorporating both the fan fiction-writers-are-all-plagiarists theme, and the threats-against-the-anti-plagiarism website idea )

I also wanked, because I couldn't believe that I was seeing praise of stories that have been proven to be plagiarized, and acknowledged to be plagiarized, but I have withdrawn. Apparently, I'm in the minority for believing that praising an author for stories that are known to be plagiarized is inappropriate.

6:49pm: From the Ice Princess boards
IMDb is my foremost choice for sex ed.


princeofenemies: It appears her cute little butt takes a real pounding in this movie.

optims129: i know id love to give her cute little butt a real good pounding!!!

Both_Ways: Then you are an immoral pervert. Having heterosexual sex outside of marriage or some sort of legal and binding commitment to your partner, leads to single-parent/teen-parent/fatherless homes and underprivileged children, and is a scourge upon the lives of babies and children.

Most teens do that these days only to prove to other people that they are not gay, and that is a pity. You'd be better off using homosexuality as a recreational sex outlet, and only using heterosexuality for the purposes of reproduction within marriage. Just imagine a child living a life of 70 years or more with only one or in fact no parents, and put yourself in that child's shoes, and see if you would not prefer two loving and nurturing parents instead, and the benefits that come with that.

Remember: Trevor Blumas (Teddy Harwood) once said to me in a private e-mail that "having heterosexual sex outside of marriage is irresponsible."

Everyone else: WTF?

Remember: Only queers screw before marriage!*




* - Could this be why gay marriage isn't yet legal?

9:59pm: stealing is okay if it's all for your children!
First wank report! And oh, it's a good one.

The man thief in black fled across the desert internet, and the fan artist followed...

Our story begins...

Once upon a time, there was a Cowboy Bebop/anime fan named bigbigtruck. bigbigtruck liked to draw pretty fan art, among other things. She was particularly well known in the [relatively] small CB fandom for her distinctive fan art style. She also made that funny video "Failed Experiments In Video Editing," which probably every vidder on amv.org has seen.

Well that sounds all fine and dandy, so where's the wank?

Well, one day bigbigtruck happened to stumble across the a surprise not entirely unlike finding your planet is about to be demolished to make way for a hyperspace bypass: A company called ANIMEGINATION decided to steal her artwork and sell it without permission on shitty t-shirts promote her artwork on eBay.

This "RARE COWBOY BEBOP ANIME MANGA TSHIRT T-SHIRT" is sitting pretty at US $23.98, with no bids as of yet. Apparently, you can "find the same image on a t-shirt for less money, however, you get what you pay for."

bigbigtruck, as you might guess, is pretty indignant about this whole thing. She contacts the sellers, and even gets a reply. And believe you me, someone paid to write for a living couldn't come up with stuff this rich:


"So far, I’ve sold one shirt at $18.98 and advertised it about 20 times so I’m actually at a net loss right now. So, does that mean you owe me money? ;0)"

"Actually, I’d be happy to send you a shirt so that you can show off your artwork at no cost to you."

"I actually am a one person operation who hand makes each shirt to fund my kids’ anime needs."


And then, a secret twist is revealed!

ANIMEGINATION is two-timing poor bigbigtruck in her "it's all for the children!" thievery! It seems one dizziness has already had her fan art stolen and sold on t-shirts as well! Where does it stop?! Is no fan art safe from those vulter-like t-shirt dealers?


What's next, Charlie Brown?

Well, someone suggests hiring a 'team' to take care of it.

But there's always all that crap you have to go through to get somebody's auction cancelled.

One industrius commenter finds and posts the seller's personal information (nabbed from ebay, I assume), although the email link doesn't work.

Is she perhaps a diaper-drug-smuggler too?

Or just your average internet asshat worthy of new and creative words I've never heard before, like 'chode'?


It's a sad day in Mudville, when your kids' anime needs can't be met through moral, honest, and upstanding ways of money making. You know, like writing dirty stories for porn magazines, or telemarketing.
