Winnie the Pooh wishes to wish you.

It's Saturday the 13th in my part of the world, so let me be the first to wish just_ruth 



Hope you have a great 'un, you awesome lady! *****HUGS***** 

How To Become Filthy Rich and Gain a Batshit Fandom.

Gakked frommadlori . Take a look at this:




By the same logic, Luke Skywalker is also King Arthur, Frodo Baggins, Aragorn and Sam Winchester. Except for the John Williams bit. 

I wonder what it is about trope that clicks so well with the collective human psyche. The patterns never seem to change. It's almost mathematical. 

Orphan  + Unique gift + Mentor + Access to hidden world + Universal acceptance of formerly misunderstood hero + Evil Nemesis + Psychic foretelling gobbledegook + Sidekicks + Love interest + Hero's journey + Dramatic Geneological Backstory Reveal + Final confrontation + Triumph of the Hero = Literary phenomenon + AM IN UR BANK, ROLLIN' IN DOUGH, BITCH! 

Excuse me, I'm off to create my college fund now. 

Attention Americans! You has nyoo candidate!

Bart for VP!
 

 Of course, he is not without his detractors. Voter lxbean points out: But how do I know Bart isn't just riding a cynical wave of pseudo-dog-liberation, disguising himself as a "dogist," as it were, while advocating for an anti-dog reversion to the days of dog catchers for the mixed breeds and cold kennels for the working breeds while he and his fellow East Coast Elites sit around swilling lattes and eating hotdogs dipped in peanut butter?

How do I know Bart's not just selling me a fantasy in the tradition of movies like "A Dog's Life in the White House" and "Puppy Goes to Washington"?

However, abnormalsanon soon puts these fears to rest:  Because he has experience and he was a POW in the pound. Isn't that enough for you? Are you un-American or what??

Frankly, he is the best choice I've seen so far. I hope you do your duty, America!

Think of the children. No seriously.

They're teaching Twilight in the 8th Grade: Lesson plan.

Apparently it's true.

WTF?!

There is not enough Horror in the world. What kind of fucking retards do they have have running the school system?

Dear God. Those book may be good enough for grown women to laugh over, but I'd never let it get within 500 feet of a fourteen-year-old's impressionable grey matter. And now they're force-feeding this sexist tripe to the poor kidlets.

Here's a tip, idiots. What a thirteen-year-old (boy or girl) really needs is a foundation course on Women's Studies, which explains exactly what constitutes sexual assault and how to keep away from abusive relationships and how to lose a control-freak boyfriend who sabotages your car to try and stop you meeting your friends. After you've fed him his own sparkly peen. 

U.S, you have now officially crossed over from batshit country and are now speedily approaching the horizon of FUBAR. (Seeing as I'm in SL, I'll probably be there to meet you when you get there.) 

For the first time in the history of book publishing, you actually do need to think of the children and this is what happens.
