So, in light of this (don't read if you don't want to know about stupid batman spoilers) I decided to give you a post on why Grant Morrison is stupid. I'm not sure where my dislike started. It was probably Animal Man, though. Goddamn fucking Animal Man. Whether he was comparing the seal hunt to ripping out dolphin fetuses and using them for toys, turning entire storylines into nonsense about Animal Man being a comic character until I was so bored I just didn't give a fuck about the plot anymore, or dedicating an issue to talking about his dead cat when they finally fire him, Morrison didn't exactly please me on that title.

Admittedly, he's still above Garth Ennis because it'd be damn hard to suck worse than Thor: Vikings(of which I swear I wrote a review for, but it seems to have disappeared? Goddamnit. I'll write a new one), which is -1000 points in writer rankings.

Anyway, in-between making bestiality jokes about Morrison because I'm classy, it descended into references to one of my very first contributions to scans_daily.

It was Animal Man.

This thread is lovely and notable as well as a good example of why I don't like Grant Morrison through the eyes of his fans.

John: do not let your eagle daughter hang out with him
Ann: D: D: D:
John: although that's more a warning for colbert and his eaglechild
Ann: Stephen jr is a boy.
John: would that stop morrison?
Ann: D:
John: he'd probably make it wear a little eagle dress
Ann: Shut up.
John: then he'll write a comic about it. And the eagle will realize it is a comic character and not stop talking about it.
John: people will praise it as a work of genius.
John: while mating with another eagle, the dialogue will say 'we fell like fighting superheroes'

So there's a new Issue (expansions, kind of?) city of heroes coming out and with them comes special free stuff for each character on your account.

As a result, I'm in a push to create new characters so they'll have the free stuff saved up for when they're higher levels. I've only got one left that I'm considering right now, so \o/.

My latest are:

Bai Feng was just an ordinary lab assistant when she volunteered to be the test subject for the very unorthodox gene cataloguing machine her boss had made. Shortly after it had all gone wrong, she was still a mild-mannered lab assistant, but now one with mental powers far beyond that of a normal student.

Now she does what she can to help the people of Paragon, in-between working on her degrees and planning what she can do to help with SCIENCE.

Reflective Peace is an illusion/forcefield controller with a mutation origin.

Richard Dawar/Star Pupil hasn't really got a bio yet. He's going to university on a football scholarship, studies astronomy, and is a mutant as well. The gloves he wears helps control his powers.

His powers are gravity/kinetics and he's also a controller. He can lift shit and fling it at peoples heads (he's doing that in one of the shots, but I didn't manage to get the object in the screencap). His best shot was a toilet to the head of a flying boss, bringing them crashing to the ground.

GUYS GUYS GUYS I've always been jealous of Bernie and his 'bear' friends so I made myself a bear character in city of heroes after being inspired by this other guy and his called Psioni Cub and it's totally cool.

Meet...

Xuan Xuan, the helpful spirit panda. I have no idea what her entire deal yet is, except she's magic, she's probably not actually a panda, and she once helped out a little girl before becoming a hero.

She's sonic/sonic (that means she can give people special orange sonic shields to protect them and she hurts people with sonic shrieks. BECAUSE THAT MAKES SENSE) and her name with the proper accents over the letters can mean noisy. I am probably fucking up a verb somewhere. Or tense. Something.

I think she looks a lot more bear-y than those guys bears. They all just look like big hairy men, they don't even use the teddy bear ears.

Oooh. I like this meme. THIS IS MY ONLY BOOK ICON

2008-11-17T04:42:12Z

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 56.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next seven sentences in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

"You tell wonderful stories. You can do all the voices and make it exciting and then funny..."
Mo crossed his arms over his chest as if hiding behind them.
"You could read me Tom Sawyer," suggested Meggie, "or How The Rhinoceros Got His Skin." That was one of Mo's favourite stories. When she was smaller they sometimes played at having crumbs in their clothes, like the crumbs in the rhino's skin.
"Yes, an excellent story," murmured Mo, turning his back to her again.

Inkheart, by Cornelia Funke, found under a pile of dvds beside my foot. I thought I was going to have to figure out how to do a Schlock Mercenary collection which was on a hatbox about four feet away.

I KEEP TRYING to remember to tell you guys about what new wacky signs the church by my sister's house has put up. When we last saw them, they were making me worry about having to fight off zombie Jesus as the snow came down.

Their delightful halloween sign was this:

NO MASK CAN HIDE
YOUR SINS FROM
GOD

Just FYI, I guess.

ps: I may have had a 'moment' in regards to mcity.

The purchase of Pinwheel. Watch as he frantically scrambles to Hobble, ensconced in Doc's arms.

I ended up being dropped off at a coffee shop on my way home instead of well, at my house so I made do with the fact I was weighed down by about three little bears.

Hobble, Mason, and Pinwheel enjoy their expresso cups which are filled with imagination by a very entertained barista.

After they arrived home, all but Mason promptly joined the Teddy Bear Mafia. Mason still believes in justice, poor little furry bastard.

So every twenty or so minutes I check my lj flist and usually end up having to go through two pages just to catch up. With few exceptions, it looks like everyone is really really happy.

That's pretty awesome.

Strawberry turtle speaks for me.

IN OTHER NEWS, the people have spoken and by spoken I mean someone said 'go for it' when I mentioned the whim, so say hello to my newest resident:

Yeah, Aayla ppopped him one in the arm. He went to hide with Asajj after that. Casa Sith will be built within the month, I hope.

BONUS: My kitty:

For an idea of her size, compare to that cd she's behind.

Sorry for the incoherence of this post, I've been throwing up all night from anxiety. I'm not all here.

For Halloween I decided to skip out on dressing up for the third time this fall and curled up with chinese food to watch Dr. Who and play with my friends.

I think I made the right choice.

Here I am on the last episode of the first season of the new stuff:

Seppicus: DIE, ECCLESTON
Seppicus: DIE ALREADY
Sparky: HEY BE NICE TO ECCLESTON
Seppicus: I HATE HOW YOU LOOK. GIVE ME THE PRETTY DOCTOR
Sparky: >:\
Sparky: BAD SEP. BAD.
Seppicus: *is very shallow when it comes to men*
Sparky: as am i. i don't really blame you for wanting the pretty doctor. he IS very pretty. and has glasses. and licks things.
Seppicus: see, I want that
Seppicus: why can't I have that?
Seppicus: Why am I stuck with the elephant man?
Sparky: no pretty doctor for you ever if you keep talking that way
Seppicus: he just keeps surviving the episode
Seppicus: THERE HE GOES
Seppicus: OR HE'S HAVING A BABY
Seppicus: I'M NOT SURE
Sparky: PUSH, DOCTOR, PUSH!
Seppicus: ROSE WILL BE AN AWFUL FATHER
Seppicus: oh, he's on fire
Seppicus: it's probably dea--MY GOD HE TURNED INTO A FERRET

This was after Rose was briefly an angel or something and totally failed to sprout wings. Goddamn you, show. DELIVER ME MY WISHES.

So there's this church I pass on my way to my sister's/home from work and it has a sign out front right now that says:

Winter Is Coming
So Is The Lord
Are You Prepared?

Which I admit makes me feel less filled with love for the almighty and more concerned I should get a shotgun, what with Halloween coming up.

Aayla is sad* but I'm not!

I spent a good bit of time playing Balderdash online with my friends. Me and Snacky alternated between asking the questions. I came in second!

I think that was a good use of my time.

*Don't worry, it's entirely related to that dress she's wearing.

To the side you can see a horrified Vork who is torn between disgust and elation that they have probably forgot they were going to ground him for shining Mace's head to mirror-like finish. Why did they do it? The clonelings will not talk. But they may be rebelling over the padawan I picked out for Kit...

In other news, a family conversation.

My mother cannot read without her glasses.

Herr Muther: "What's these little words right here? *points at the calendar*"
Me: *squinting to read her horrible handwriting* "Fall Retreat ... Returns: The Retreatening"
Herr Muther: "Stop helping."

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PUI. HAVE A DALEK.

So I'm taking a digital photography class (I will not be surprised if you guess why) and my first assignment is five photographs of 'colour'.

The first subject I chose was Roomba, my golden Dalek.

Help me choose which one of these to use.

Next: Captain Marvel fights in a tree.

suggestions for more interesting things to do with Roomba welcome. I do want to keep something with blue and gold though.

So I decided today that Casa Jedi needed a way to get around the bustling toy suburb that is my wing of the house. As the pink barbie jeep was already taken up by Bishop and Fizzy and the pink van was claimed by actual barbies, I had to take the unopened box that had been at the top of my wardrobe for five years and open it to see what miracles were inside.

It was a red suv.

Mace is less than happy.

What the fuck?

Because 'small animals love running into cardboard tubes' is a less likely answer than 'so people can stick them up their butt!'

I'm deeply confused.
