Mock. Mockmockmock. Mockity-mock-mock

12:56am: Can't we just buy you an IPod
Remember the good olde days when people on your friendslist just hinted around for you to buy them IPods and paid LJ time?? Well, I'm sorry, but that is so 2004 and we have inflation to contend with!

Now you can buy a fanfic writer a WHOLE YEAR OFF WORK so she can finish her WIPs for a show that's been off the air for a few years now. Someone should let Joss Whedon know, or at least contact the other writers who helped her write it in the first place. Will they all get a share of the profits?

Oh, and big surprise, no comments allowed on her post. Don't worry, cutie. If we can't flame you there, we'll flame you here.

UPDATED: A response from Cousin Jean aka OH, the unmitigated gall!

Updated again: The original post begging for cash has been deleted, so Yay for Fandom Peer Pressure! And a smart fandom_wanker preserved the post in a C&P so we can continue to mock! And if she's only taken it down in order to revise it and repost, I will of course link to any further stupidity that she cares to share with all of fandom.

Update No. 3: Second post has been edited. Here's the C&P of the original version.

Update No. 4: New Post: Goodbye, Cruel Internets!!

Update the 5th? The Fallout:

Elynross has a round-up of amusing links referring to the wank of the day. I'll direct you to her post instead of linking them myself since I'm lazy and I've been working hard all day to keep you updated (why aren't you bitches paying me???!)

Cesperanza has some commentary which might be wank-worthy itself just by virtue of being serious ;)

If you come across anything else interesting, let me know and I'll add it to the main post.

6:32am: The War of the Bumps?
As many Adult Swim fans might know, National Lampoon posted a parody of the AS bumps basically making fun of the AS line-up. People are not amused as the parody isn't that funny and rather uncalled for. Attack of the Show, on the G4 network, calls them on it. Look carefully amongst the comments on this post as a writer from NL (SN is JayPink) responds to the post. And of course, Adult Swim themselves eventually respond on air to the parody. Bump can be seen here.

The entire thing is summarized at Metafilter in which people comment to defend and/or ridicule AS and NL.


The comments aren't particularly wanky, just the situation in general.
