đŸ”„ + television, đŸ”„ + silmarillion, đŸ”„ + sims

[breathes in deep for long rants]

television: I watch perhaps five shows total, and online if I can. Meh tv. And meh most BBC shows. Formulaic Korean drama shows, even suffering through cultural and literal translations and that I still can’t pronouce any of the names, are more interesting for me to watch than US or British equivalents. At least their same exact love triangle character types and even the amnesia plots don’t tire my patience the way every American lawyer/cop crime drama or Friends/Coupling singles-living-in-big-city or sitcom family character types do. Watched a few episodes of Doctor Who, didn’t see the overwhelming appeal. Will never watch Sherlock– the main actor is unattractive and a big turn-off. 

silmarillion: Maedhros is awful and unattractive. Fingon is very uninspiring. FĂ«anor is a fascist. All are boring characters. Neither Thingol nor Mandos was harsh enough to the Noldor. Celegorm has black hair (which he dyed various colors and all were obviously fake), and Huan leaving him was Huan’s redemption moment. As plot tokens – which is all they really are- the Silmarils as written are lacking. I like LaCE.

sims: The lack of clean sharp textures for Sims 3 is worse than the “pudding-face” aesthetic and a ridiculous flaw in the technology. I neither had and never will be interested in Sims 4. Sims 2- the Maxis Match trend was okay for objects and good for building, but why on earth did anyone like the style for hair textures? Too many green plumb-bobs. The ghosts are awful and we didn’t need more types and more focus on them.

Wherre/What is this? And uuuugh, this is very annoying that the drag-drop to see the likes/replies to my posts has now these little buttons at the end that, looking at them, are quick links to go directly to their blog or to block someone (like, okay? why would I need an easily clicked/easy to accidentally click option to block someone who has liked one of my posts?). Which, the same thing if you click on the avatar.

(Best legolas monotone: “This forest is old; I can feel it. Old as balls.”) 

Yes, when I first stalked followed you, I thought you were as old if not older than me (and then I thought you were only one or two years younger) and that you lived outside the US. 

kazaera said: you are actually correct I’m 28 too! so it’s just me agefailing here. (idk what place/timezone you think or thought I live in tho)

yay! You didn’t feel much younger/older than me.  

(I will admit for some reason at first I thought you identified male, which is weird because I tend to assume anyone on the internet, if I think of their gender, unless they have a call name/handle that begins with Sir “__”, as female. I try not to miscall people’s pronouns, and stick to neutral they, but I know I’ll error.) 

Umm, are you another one of my mutuals living in the UK right now? I know I have a few, but can never keep them straight/ remember how many. (I think most of my American followers are in Cascadia or the Great Lakes or Virginia/Carolinas, so generally most aren’t the same timezone.)

Actually, I’m a terrible person at remembering personal info. Am a wretch, please despise me for it.
