sticky post, but not friends only

Photobucket 

This journal? It's only "friends only" once in a blue moon. Pretty much if I just talk about personal stuff. I'm not overly picky about who reads most of my stuff...if you don't like my opinions, you don't have to read my LJ, and I see little reason to keep myself from making new friends on the off chance someone will leave a nasty comment because they don't like my opinion. I do, however, like knowing when I get friended, or when someone wanders in from a mutual friend or community. I'm always up for another person to squee over something with, or to have a debate with, as long as it's a respectful debate that keeps a person and their opinions separate. (In other words, if I loathe a character you adore, or I adore a character you think is wretched scum and should die, that's cool, just keep in mind that liking or disliking that character is one of several thousand qualities and opinions each of us has.)

My interests range from classic movies to urban fantasy, to mysteries, to us comics, to fantasy, to anime and manga, to 18th-19th century british romances, to asian live action dramas and more...essentially, if it interests me, I'll probably check it out, and I'll probably post on it.

The posts themselves range from two or three line comments to pages of squeeing and meta or massive(or smaller) posts of picspams and youtube vids.

Mosts of my posts are about whatever I'm into at the moment-of late, primarily-but not exclusively-anime, manga, YA and adult fantasy, fiction in different genres set circa 1800-1940s, and live action asian dramas.

As a fair warning, while it is typically plot, humor or action that will draw me to something, if there's a canon pairing I like, then 9 times out of 10, that's what I'll end up talking about the most. On the flipside, if it's all about the angst, romantic or otherwise, with the plot as an excuse, then it'll probably put me to sleep.

Hi! I did that maybe 15 minutes ago, so hadn't commented yet.

Mostly Gen X, Deadpool and Gargoyles(though I see you also have Darkness in your interests.)

Yay Gen X fans! (Penance/Chamber OTP)
I miss Gargoyles but I haven't bothered with the new comics.

As for the Darkness, the first series was great, but the second and this new third one...I'm not impressed.

You know, I'm sure that, when the series was first running, I shipped something in GenX, possibly several something, but all I can think now is "platonic OT7."

Ditto on Darkness. The second series had some high points, but too much of it was serious angst(and not the fun angst of the first series.) I haven't read any of the current series yet except the preview issue and what's shown up on scans_daily. The drug thing is a serious turnoff, and Jackie having sex with the creation kinda ruins the whole point, though I do get twisted!evil!angst!lostlove!joy out of his trying to make the creation be just like Jenny.

I couldn't get into Darkness vol2 past issue ...9 or so. The scans_daily scans made me go WTF?

Even today the main GenX ships seem to be Jubilee/M, Paige/Jono, Paige/Jono/Angelo or Jono/Angelo.

There seems to be a good bit of resurrected Jubes/Jono going around, and some Ange/Jubes/Jono, though I'm sure that's at least in part because of New Warriors.

That they don't know about Penny being in LA (or whereever she is now...I haven't read the last issues of Loners yet) DEPRESSES ME. Come on, Marvel...will I ever get my GenX reunion story?

You do not want to know what they did with Penance! *Headdesk headdesk headdesk*

THEY HAD HER TOUCHING PEOPLE AND KISSING AND TALKING!!! That alone was bad enough...

Oh. So you do know.
*Sigh*
