SHUT UP, JUST SHUT UP

...When I see things like this on [livejournal.com profile] fandomsecrets, I die a little inside. D:

Edit: Also shit like this; THE STUPID, IT BURNSSSSS USSSSSSS

...how is that woman old and fat? I would love to look like that. She's sensual and lush and relaxed and just stunning.

Word! Of course, I suppose she's "old" and "fat" in that she's not a saucer-eyed anime lolita with 28GGG breasts and a 12-inch waist. D:

But seriously, anyone who would take what's not even the best of anime style, but the dregs - the boilerplate moe-moe harem-girls - and say that is uniformly superior in genre to the body of Western art is either a troll or a complete fucking moron. D:

I would have to call troll on both. I don't know if that makes me an optimist or a pessimist, though. XD;

I want them to be trolls! But I'm afraid they might not be. D:

Fandom secrets: lowering your faith in humanity since 2007.

Yeah, they do kind of make a habit of this kind of stuff, don't they? *weeps*

[identity profile] sergiekins.livejournal.com 2008-02-01 10:11 am (UTC)(link)
Both of those... they... seriously, they seriously couldn't be from actual people... can they? Eeeh.

[identity profile] yoshitsune.livejournal.com 2008-02-01 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
I WANT TO BELIEVE! But, er, I think the latter probably is, if not the former...and I've seen people online like the former, so it COULD be a real person, sadly. D:

I know what you mean. I started out thinking both of those were trolls, but then again, the internet has taught me that SOME PEOPLE REALLY ARE THAT STUPID. Sob.

[identity profile] yoshitsune.livejournal.com 2008-02-01 10:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's the problem! Sometimes I want to make like PH-tan in your icon and kill all the stupid people. D:

Yeah, I really don't know. I'd like to hope that the first one is just some smart-ass playing around, but as the person above me said, PEOPLE ARE DUMB.

[identity profile] yoshitsune.livejournal.com 2008-02-01 10:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I think the first one is a little more likely to be a troll...but then, wank even started in the comments over someone who said they agreed with them (though they then acknowledged that they only agreed with the "I like anime art better than Western art" part, which is bad enough, but at least they weren't necessarily down with the "it's not even art, they're fat and pasty because they are not kawaii neko-miko-maid-loli-tans"). So it's not like there aren't people out there who'd say that. D:

Renaissance: Needed moar loli

Clearly Leonardo needed to dump La Gioconda and find himself a catgirl (La Nekoconda, if you will). And Michelangelo's David must be infinitely inferior to a hypothetical Michelangelo's Sephiroth. D:

I can't believe that those are the only two you picked. There are so many that are so, so, so much worse.

True, I've seen many a soul-killing "secret" on there before - I didn't post the one on my LJ about the undergrad guy who wore formal clothing to class every day and was convinced he was going to be able to get three Ph.D.'s and get an academic job and become a writer, and who also happened to be gay and only attracted to gamer guys. And then was all "duh, why don't they want to date me?" MAYBE BECAUSE YOU'RE LIKE THE UNHOLY ALLIANCE OF ANNOYING OVERACHIEVING PRETENTIOUS STUDENT AND LOG CABIN REPUBLICAN (in manner if not in politics).

With this one, it was just seeing these two in the same post that just sent me over the edge. D:
