sorcyress: A character from a comic about the maintenance workers of the universe, holding a thumbs up and saying "MOOP!" (Zonker-MOOP!)

Some sundries that I have found entertaining lately:

*Jane Austen's Fight Club is the current best thing on YouTube. Cosplaying Fanny might just be enough to get me into a Regency gown. Pass the bruise make-up, please. (Warning, a little violent, girls hitting girls. It's fight club with Regency dresses.)

*A Skeptic's View of Love, which should be required reading for everyone that gets all moony about the fact that, when you meet your TWOO WUV FOREVER, you will instantly be in love with them and that's that.

I honestly find it *more* romantic to consider that good relationships are not based on some emphereal concept of a soulmate (hint: I have yet to find someone who meets all my myriad and occasionally contradicting needs --if I have a soulmate, I have not yet met them) as much as they are based on shared experiences and revealing the hidden layers of yourself to your partner. But I'm far more practical than romantic, most days.

*Superheroes vs the Westb*r* B*ptist Ch*rch --from Comicon, so you've probably already seen it.

*Legend of Neil has started its third season! Decidedly NSFW, but fairly hilarious regardless! For the unknowing, it's a web-series that consists of this dude Neil who...um...accidentally transported himself into the game "Legend of Zelda" somehow. And by somehow, like I said, NSFW. It's funny, and stars Felicia Day as the fairy, and I'm glad they got their third season, since I really like web-based media.

*So, [livejournal.com profile] rm linked to this dude [livejournal.com profile] xtricks, who offers up a guide for young and stupid sexy-fanfic writers. Mainly focusing on the fact that, well, anal sex? You are doin' it wrong. The comments are worth reading too, for their digression into "Things that are not lube!"(Peanut butter, guacamole, Keanu Reaves...) Textually NSFW

YAY STUFF!

MOOP!

Sor!

You have failed in reminding us when new chapters of HP&tMoR are posted!

Luckily, I decided to read the page for it on TVTropes, saw a bunch of stuff I didn't remember, and eventually discovered an RSS feed.

Your first link seems to be lacking in linkiness -- it just goes to the current page.

"I honestly find it *more* romantic to consider that good relationships are not based on some emphereal concept of a soulmate"

On love, bonding, sex, romance, and all that, here's my current favorite article on the subject: http://www.oxytocin.org/oxytoc/love-science.html

my thoughts on the whole "soulmate" thing.
there is one (or more, if you [and they] do that) person out there that is absolutely 100% everything downright perfect for you, and you are the same for them.
there are ~6 billion people in the world.
the odds that you will meet the above person are almost nil.

on the flipside, there are a whole host of people that are close enough to be decent-good, and, if you're lucky, then you meet and stick with them.

The person I know who needs to read that the most, won't.

Personally, I find it rather encouraging. :-)

If I didn't have you to hold me tight
If I didn't have you to lie with at night
If I didn't have you to share my sights
And to kiss me and dry
My tears when I cry
Well I really think that I would
Have somebody else.
