This is a disgusting abomination. What on earth could you have been thinking, FictionAlley admins? Have you no shame? Have you no self-awareness?

J.K. Rowling would be appalled by you. The woman writes Harry Potter apocrypha that makes millions of dollars and she donates it all to charity. Actual, deserving charity. She's become famous for her philanthropy. You embarrassments don't deserve to associate your collective identity with her creations.

I had actually heard of the Pepsi Refresh Project before, but when I first went there I was so overwhelmed by the breadth of deserving proposals that I was paralyzed by indecision and then decided that, whatever, I'm gonna go do other things now, since whoever wins that money will obviously be worthy. But since that is no longer true, I think I will actually have to find some proposals to vote for.

People have been speculating on what a Law & Order/Boston Legal/Phoenix Wright take on the JKR vs. SVA lawsuit would look like since the news first broke months ago, but even though I can resist the (awesome and surprisingly easy to imagine) mental image of a J. K. Rowling sprite, the idea of Franziska as one of her lawyers just WILL NOT LEAVE ME ALONE. Bless Curse you, Fandom Wank!



Oh my god, she is totally about to let him have it.

Today was productive.

1. I got a haircut and highlights, which I normally wouldn't do for myself, but it was a Christmas gift from my parents, so.

2. I saw a friend who, until she tells me what she would prefer to be called here, shall be known as R, and got her into Death Note. WOOHOO! Somebody else to bore silly with tinhatty diatribes on L and Light's Big Gay Love! We watched the first seven episodes of anime, and I left the first few volumes of manga with her. Must remember to make sure she sees episode 15. "YAGAMI-KUN!!! Konnichiwa," will NEVER NOT be funny FRIGGIN HYSTERICAL OMG I just watched it again to make sure I had the right episode number and it is making me laugh until I CRY over here.

Also, I got her somewhat into FMA. Mostly I seem to have convinced her that I'm pretty much a nutcase who entertains delusions of marrying Hawkeye on the astral plane. If the shoe fits, you know? BUT she is interested, so I left the first few volumes of that with her, too. FMA is just so good; I'm so happy to be getting it some potential new fans. It makes rewatching the first two episodes, which totally could have been called "Much Ado About Dead Birds: Parts I and II," completely worth it.

3. I wrote up my first LJ post of 2008. Excuse me for being lazy.

Ummm. Just so I can have some content in this post, here, have some ramblings on which Hogwarts Houses I think Phoenix Wright characters would have been Sorted into. (I did one for Death Note characters, too. They were all in Slytherin.)

A: Two movie passes.
Q: See, being geeky is good for something, isn't it?
A: It sure is.
