LIVE, one night only!

My worst habit; I'm constantly falling in love with long dead fandoms. Ohh and I fall hard.

The latest one, My So-Called Life. It is not my fault though; it is entirely the fault of 30 Seconds to Mars. I am so upset at Jared Leto for not completely sucking as a singer/song writer. I don't know why but I really expected and wanted him to, maybe even needed him to. Otherwise there's no sense of fairness or justice to the universe and the walls of this reality should collapse inward because our existence is as poignant as spam... yet still, he does not suck.

Damn fucking pretty boy... guh, I've no stomach for this! The powers that be need to divvy up some of that talent in more equal measures. s'not fair, s'all I'm sayin'...
"Edge Of The Earth.mp3" [6.33MB] " from their Self-Titled Debut [30 Seconds to Mars]
"The Kill.mp3" [6.63MB] " from their Subsequent Release [A Beautiful Lie]

for the sake of comparison
(Live Version) Acoustic - Echelon.mp3 [7.2MB] / (Studio Version) Echelon.mp3 [7.99MB]
And the fandom part of it? I wrote fic for it because it was an amazing show, because it was an iconic part of my youth, because it's been over ten-years, because I just got the DVD box-set as a pick me up due to a rather heartless domestic miscalculation... because I am just pathetic that way.
"LIVE, one night only! [FF.Net Link] However this is not the reason why I now pimp this fic. Someone reviewed, stating adamantly, they hated the fic because, and I quote; "you only like mentioned brian once"

People, when reviewing, say something, anything constructive. Tell me I can't spell, or I mix metaphors, or I always write 'too' instead of 'to' or I missed a hundred punctuations, plague my prose with run on sentences and that I've got no plot or sense of story-telling. All of which is very likely, but do not hate because of you're idiocy. I mean seriously, pick your battles, nimrod.

x-posted, because today I'm rant happy! :)

Man, my starved-for-new-music mood is creeping up on me again. But on the highest of high notes; my skechers are on their way. No more curb-side disservice for this clumsy elf, no siree.

Quickdump hates me, and I am sad. I'll try again later.

(Apologies for being such a useless beta lately, I should wave a sign that says "Will try harder" or something, because I always mean to and keep failing for one reason or another. My own brain, for example. Oh well, Brian's hiding didn't disturb me, there is that, but then I've only seen the first three episodes, so... Maybe I should make you let me watch more when I'm over. Which will be April 8th till the 11th, incidentally.

Hey, catching up with friends via lj comments, it's the done thing.)

Quickdump hates on me a lot as well but it last fucking forever, so you can either try to hit it continuously til it works or use the mirrors while I have them up. They should work... goddammit they better!

It isn't that Brian's hiding, it's that it's Ten-Fucking-Years later and it's not like everyone is inseparable. It's miracle they even keep each other in mind. Reality, bitches!... plus, the reviewer [I think, I can't remember exactly] states that Brian is their favorite, hence they hate my fic, which has me laughing, you don't know how hard XD

I have BOX-Set and I'm always up for obsessive viewing. You should know this. My April plans were sort of pooped on due to familial illness and impending death. What can ya do?

Oh, right, yes, there's also the links, right there. *sigh* Got them, thank you.

I should find a similar random reason to hate on it, even though I'm not nearly well-versed enough in the show to come up with something appropriate. Once I've indulged in some of that obsessive viewing I'll see what I can do. If you're around for this, that is good, although if it's because of that kind of thing, less so. I must try to work as a distraction, or something.

Hate on which? The fic, the show or the music? :P

OMG I'd totally forgotten about that series! Until you mentioned it.

God it's taking me forever to type that one sentence I am so giddy. Should I ever make it back over to you, and I will, one day...we must watch freakishly lots of episodes...yep.

the shows just amazing that way, memorable but entirely forgettable. ^^;

Heh yeah but with your one post, it suddenly all came flooding back :)

Also I liked This Life but don't know if you know that - finally after 10 years they've brought the 2nd series out on DVD...the videos were going for £50 on eBay at one time - I should have sold mine off in preparation for the DVD but then was worried BBC might suddenly change their mind!
