Is it just me, or is some of the bitching over Silent Hill Homecoming getting stupider, and stupider? To hopefully prove my point, here are some examples.


Cut for you insanity and for some MAJOR SPOILERS! )

What?  
Got this in the ol' Inbox a few days ago and I thought I'd share:

Dear Amazon.com Customer,

We've noticed that customers who have purchased or rated Silent Hill 3 or other games in the PlayStation 2 > Adventure category have also purchased Disney Hannah Montana: Spotlight World Tour. For this reason, you might like to know that Disney Hannah Montana: Spotlight World Tour will be released on August 12, 2008....


Is there some kind of masochistic connection I'm not getting here? You know, though, the bloody and brutal murder of Hannah Montana by Claudia WOULD be the best of both worlds!

I preordered my 2-disc copy of Iron Man.
You get a bit of a discount if you order early from Amazon.com.

I can't wait to watch this in my own living room on our 42" LCD TV with the surround sound. And if there's commentary? I will die an extra happy woman.

Wonderful Tonight [A Clana Vid]  
Song/Title: Wonderful Tonight
Vidder: Me ([info]impala_chick)
Artist: Eric Clapton
Fandom: Smallville
Characters/Pairings: Clark/Lana
Clips: Through 7.12
Summary: "And I tell her, as I turn out the light, I say my darling, you are wonderful tonight."
V/N: I wanted to portray the ache that Clark and Lana have for each other, and I wasn't satisfied until I used an epic song (this clapton song srsly makes me cry). That being said, I don't think I did this song justice. And I tried doing some things a little differently using color and b/w. So feel free to be honest in what you think.

Links This Way!

And just to tell you partially why I'm so grumpy...  
Had to take three out of four cats to the vet for shots, cortisone treatments (flea allergies) and in one case, worming. This meant getting up and taking the Hubby to work so I could have the car, which put me in a sleepy mode all day. The cats are not the most cooperative about this (especially Tika!) though listening to them complaining in three-part harmony was funny. We've got antibiotic for poor Cotton, who hates it. Three out of four also have new collars (or at least, they will once we get Ink Jet inside to put his on). Callie goes tomorrow to the mobile vet for her shots; it's far, far cheaper than the regular vet! Another morning of getting up early and staying up.

Boy #2 has a friend over for the night. The friend is fine; he's a polite young man who I like. But they were up until 11:30 playing the PS2 (this was after DVBS ended). That's too late, and I had to tell them it was time to stop.

One of Boy #1's friends called him... at 11:20 p.m.! I told him that it was too late to call, and truthfully, he was lucky to find Boy #1 up and about. I hope I got through to him about not calling after 10 p.m. - I originally thought it was some kind of emergency!

And... Boy #1 has just gone to bed - a little after midnight. He took a shower after the phone call and wanted to wash some clothes! I'm beginning to despair of getting this crew back on a normal schedule come August. I know part of the fault is mine, but they do know better and these late nights really take their toll on Boy #2. And going to bed doesn't actually mean going to sleep... sigh.

Hubby spent a few hours out and about when I sent him for milk, even going to Barnes and Noble! Fortunately, unlike yesterday, when a trip to the library lasted until nearly nine, he was home early enough for us to have dinner before the DVBS bus came to collect Boy #2. First eight-hour day in about three weeks, I think.

So, there you go. As they say, when mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy!

Signed up for Twitter...  
... because I didn't get my Othar fix in my flist today. Not sure how much I'll use it, but it looks interesting.

Checked out some meta on the Rebecca Tushnet NPR interview. I have to agree with the ones who say that fandom/fanfiction isn't "under the radar" anymore, and hasn't been for a while. It's the same argument I used in the FanLib forums to defend FanLib. We're already outed, whether we like it or not. As for OTW, I don't care what they do one way or the other. I've had no strong opinion thus far on what they're going to offer because I haven't been able to see what they've come up with. Show me your archive, show me your wiki. Show me that what you've got to offer is better than FanLib, better than FanFiction.net, better than FanHistory, and I'll give you my opinion. Whether or not I'll use your services remains to be seen.

I do have one strong opinion about OTW in general though: don't presume to speak for me as a fan. I'm not part of the whole "live journal = fandom" crowd and never will be.

Shallow follies.  
The three shallow things I'm going to miss the most when I'm in Chile:

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince film.
Watching new episodes of Chuck on Monday nights.
Watching new episodes of Heroes on Monday nights.

Oh, please let me have a time and place to be able to download my TV shows while I'm there... LOL



The HP thing really isn't too big a deal. I'll be home three weeks after it comes out. But still. ;-)
