So, part of me wants to watch FMA. But part of me also remembers how FMA fandom destroyed any interest I had in that show. I don't like rabid fangirls. I also didn't like how it was considered a GOD AMONG ANIME just because it had more exposure and did better ratings-wise than other anime. I like FMA, it's fun, but I can't get into the ZOMG FMA'S BACK THIS IS THE GREATEST DAY OF MY LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFE mentality of so many. I may wait a few episodes and then stream.

Winning quote of the day:
"I think rape is when the rapist is the unappealing villain so the victim has no chance of loving him, and non-con is when the rapist is attractive and sympathetic so the victim gets into it and falls for him by the end. That's just my rudimentary understanding, though."
-yaoi fangirl rationalizing warnings for posted yaoi manga

Wow, fangirls, just wow.

That quote also applies to any romance novel written in the 80's and early 90's.

I could not enjoy a lot of the crap I love if I payed attention to the fandoms. And yes, I do mean Twilight. Speaking of Twilight, my brothers got really drunk and are now watching the movie.

Off topic: Yay for Wednesday being a Benry centric episode of Lost. Those are always made of awesome.

Oh I'd believe it.

My roomie and her buds tried to make me watch Twilight. Emphasis on TRIED. It's not happening. Ever.

Mm Benry. Maybe it will make up for the suck of last week.

The past few weeks the only good parts of the show were the scenes with mini Benry. And the scene where Sayid was complaining to Sawyer about the chicken salad sandwich. Also, my Jack hate has grown and I didn't even think that was possible.

I will get you to watch Twilight. It will happen.

Yes, Jack hate has reached an epic level. And I do love mini-Benry. But everything else was the suck.

No it won't. I will DRIVE AWAY.

I will hold you captive with baked goods.

There is very little food in existence that can compensate for watching Twilight.
