Dear Television Advertising,

Why was John Lydon trying to sell me butter last night? I mean, I'm not one to get all "OMG SELLOUT!", because whatever, but ... butter? What? My flabber is officially gasted, here, people. o_O

Also, what the shit is this? Are you serious?

Now I'm boggled and despairing for humanity. Thanks a lot, douchebags.

Going back to her NaNovel,
Melle

women should lose their own identity when they marry and become a part of the man and his family

When I got married I became my husband's spleen. I wanted to be his appendix, but I was afraid I'd get inflamed and have to be removed.

Disclaimer: I don’t own any of the characters in this story; they belong to their creators/actors/whatever at thatguywiththeglasses.com and cinemassacre.com. Also, none of this actually happened (as should be obvious to you since I assume you’re not currently hiding from the slavering zombie hordes, and if you are, don’t you have better things to do than read fanfic?), and none of it is intended to be taken overly serious.

In other words, if you’re reading this and getting angry at the very concept of fanfic about internet personalities, just close the tab, move on, and repeat to yourself: "It’s just a story, I should really just relax."

Dedication: To Amy, for beta services and putting up with my flailing panic about this damn story.

Anli & Laura's Lesbian Gamer Geek Wedding

The offbeat bride: Anli, data analyst

Her offbeat partner: Laura, public servant

Location & date of wedding: The Old Stone House, NSW Australia — 5 September 2009

What made our wedding offbeat: We wanted a ceremony that reflected our geeky, romantic, pink aesthetic, while at the same time being profound and meaningful. Our ceremony was themed around the video game Portal and the anime series Revolutionary Girl Utena.

We incorporated lots of geeky details, from the table names (Revolution, Sierra, Katara and GLaDOS) to the choice of music. We also kept several traditional elements such as bouquets, dresses and bridesmaids. However, we both walked down the aisle unaccompanied and skipped the garter/bouquet toss.

...

And we walked down the aisle to an obscure piece of music from Utena.

I HAS A FLAT!!!!1!one!!

THERE IS NOT ENOUGH CAPSLOCK IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW, PEOPLE! \o/ regular access to a computer -- my computer! Quite possibly proper internet access again! Not to mention all my stuff! I could cry right now, honestly.

The one downside -- well, okay, there's a couple, like that everything including cooker and heating is electric, but whatever. The one thing that currently makes me flail is that I'd be moding in during the second half of November, so right during NaNo crunch time. Because I wasn't already flailing hard enough about NaNo, obviously.

But: FLAT! \o/

... Excuse me while I go and make lists of things I need to do and get and fill out before then, argh.
