ben, the prize, birds

[oiran]

I interrupt my coding project to bring you randomness.

I walk in on Mr. Glove watching Daredevil. Colin Farrell has some weird compassy thing embossed on his forehead. Jennifer Garner is dressed for pole dancing...or rooftop knife-fighting, I suppose. Ben Affleck is IN THIS MOVIE, which means it sucks. I ask Mr. Glove: Does Ben have special powers? We don't know--Mr. Glove hasn't been paying enough attention. It seems like he should, though, since he floats a little when he leaps. In fact, he floats a lot. Because he's a fucking gasbag/Ben Affleck, that's why. Jennifer is wearing ridiculous hair extensions and awful bubblegum pink lipstick. It's a totally wrong color for her. She has such amazing, strong bones--she'd look better with a little bit of dirt and grease rubbed around on her face (seriously!) than this girlie shit. Ben is wearing puffy pec pads. Don't the costuming people think about what it says about the superheroes when they have fake muscles sewn into their sekrit identity suits? Vain, vain, vain and kinda gay in a gym-rat way. Colin Farrell should not be bald. I don't find him attractive anyway, but this is really bad. And the embossed thing...I'm not even going to ask what or why.

Mr. Glove was glad when I left the room and took my commentary with me.

Dana, aka shaggirl, thinks I've promised her a sequel to The Prize, but I haven't done any such thing. I've said I'd consider it. Consider, ponder, mull over, and maybe then I'll plan to do it. I've got other things I actually want to do, but I have a hard time resisting a challenge. It's not something I'd necessarily enjoy doing, but I look for my growth experiences in all the wrong places. PLEASE: If you're someone who would want to read such a thing, let me know with a comment. I do wonder what sort of audience exists for extreme Clark abuse, outside of shaggirl and nerodi.

Don't tell the rest of my birds, but these little parakeets are the darlingest things ever.

And I am teaching myself Flash, and so far it is actually really easy once you understand the interface. Which means I might have a marketable freelance skill soon.

Now back to coding.

I'm a stranger here, found isagel somehow and then read her praises of you. I've never seen Smallville but I'm just beginning to explore this verse and adore the fanfic that it inspires. Yours is wonderful and I would read anything you write, but find a special niche in my heart for extreme abuse.

Welcome, and thank you for your kind words! (and you read the story isagel just posted, right? It's genius)

I'll put you down on the list of dirty!wrong-thinking people ;)
