Girl Gamers just announced the winner of their layout contest. purplemoon16 and lady_vice both have a problem with this.

I'll admit it's small, but we're having fun with it.

Uhh... *waves hand* Tank Girl fan, here. If you're the only person who knows about it, then why is it featured on someone else's layout? Ahh, logic! Is there a law about mentioning your status in an obscure fandom in order to seem special and elite? If not, there should be.

I and all my mindless 16 year old girl minions from the One Tree Hill fandom agree completely.

Although I do enjoy purplemoon16's lavish claim that she is the only person (in perhaps the known universe) who is a Tank Girl fan I still have to give more credit to lady_vice who completely misses timetokill's sarcasm in the comment: "You do realize that ALL girls like (and only like!) Final Fantasy, right?" and responds with: "ALL girls do not like and ONLY like Final Fantasy. I don't know where you heard that, but I'd like you to bring me proof."

WHERE IS YOUR EVIDENCE?!11 The prosecution demands to see your evidence! Where have you heard such horrible rumors??!

Bonus Wank also awarded for "I should get a say in this even though I didn't vote!" and "Maybe you're right and I am choosing to only see what I want to, but does that make me wrong?"

I'm in serious need of a "Bitch, please" icon. This chick claims that she's the only one who's heard of Tank Girl? Jesus on toast points. I've heard of Tank Girl and I'm not a gamer.

I was introduced to the FF series by...

Ready for this?

A MAN!!! Someone of the male species introduced this female to FF (and FF6 to be exact-actually FF3 in Japan). I don't think SquareEnix really went out to make FF a female RPG. Then again, I think that's exactly what they did with FFX-2 but that's neither here nor there.

It's definitely a girly game (I love it, love it, love it - except for the dress spheres (lame name; skill spheres would have been better)) but I was most amused by people claiming the lack of clothing was a girl-focused thing.

Um, hello? Fan-service? Guys like half-naked women? Most gynophiles do. ;)

Now if only they'd give us more of the half-naked male... MMmmm... Tidus. Feed the androphiles, people!

I keep seeing your icon and my brain perversely kindly supplies images of... ice lollies. Don't ask me why, your icon is and forever will be a strawberry/vanilla ice lolly for me.

It's legs isn't it?

Fun! I tend not to go with the whole girl-gamer bit - I'd rather just be a gamer thankyouverymuch, and not make a gigantic fucking deal out of the fact that OMGOMGOMG I'M A GIRL AND I'M PLAYING GAMES! I R TRAILBLAZER! < /wank >

...but the humor here has me tempted to befriend it anyway. Decisions, decisions. ;)

I like how people take FFX-2 SO DAMN SERIOUSLY, when anyone who's played the game knows it's the most cheesey peice of fluff ever. The game KNOWS it's a sparkly Charlie's Angels in Space kinda thing, and mocks itself constantly. Every now and then something a plot will jump in and make itself known, but the game's all about the pretty, and they know it.

My boyfriend is an FF die-hard. He's even inculcating my little nephews into it! He also loves kitties. (I feed them to my dog, shhhh). And the best part about him? If someone wants to call him a girl-gamer or a feminist? He'll say thank you and laugh.

Ah....labels...

I'm starting to get the impression that FFX-2 was born to spooge. Almost every little aspect of it causes wank. Even conceptional art on a livejournal layout.
