Worst Advice Column

This column is situated under humor, but it's really not. I mean, really not.

Because someone is going to take this seriously.

‘Dear Checked Out. You’re disgusting,’ Barrington wrote in response to the boy’s query.

‘I don’t mean your attitude or your personality. I mean you, physically. You’re gross. You have puss oozing out of you face, your limbs are all wildly different lengths and you smell like a saddle after a long day’s trail ride. That’s why all the girls in your grade are dating juniors and seniors.

‘At 15, you are currently at the absolute zero of male attractiveness and I’m including when you’re in your 90’s and even a few weeks after you’re dead.’

This is all a big no.

So you take a kid, who definitely being a silly, but who is FIFTEEN, and you tell him he's disgusting? That he smells and is gross? 

What the hell is wrong with you?

This is the type of response you start typing without thinking. This is the type of response you need to apologize for later, because you made a 15 year old cry! He is probably insecure, and uncertain about his looks, self conscious enough as it is and you tell him, in print that he's disgusting? I don't care if the kid is oozing pus, you don't say that to someone.

This is more than just a humor column. This is trash.

Ships in the night

Shipping. We all do it. If we in fandoms do it more enthusiastically than most....::Shrugs::

I have some ships. I have my OTP, who doesn't? I am a believer in a few others, and there are some I don't mind.

I also have one other kind of ship. A ship I can't stand. A ship that make me queasy. And I can't for the life of me figure out why.  (Johncroft)

I can read Mystrade with nary an eyelid quiver. Good Johnlock will put me in a great mood. Even bad Johnlock is Johnlock.

I've even read some Mycroft/Mary that was interesting....

But... I accidentally read something in Johncroft almost a year ago. I didn't know how it would affect me. But I pretty much slammed my computer closed and felt sick. It was consensual and ... urk. It's just that it's an image that has haunted me ever since. My brain just says NO.

The Holiday

My favorite crying movie. Its got brilliant sets and absolutely the best characters. I am always saddened that Iris and Miles' story doesn't get the attention that Amanda and Graham get. They are hotter and sexier together, but the lack of balance makes their romance seem too sudden. They are sweeter.

But Arthur was extremely worthy of a main arc. He's such a genuine person and I would love a faux biopic on his life. He's fabulous.

And Graham. I love his children and their dynamic so much. He's really just beautiful with them.

An the ending just makes me cry in the best and happiest of ways.

Besides, watching Jude Law weep is a wonderful thing.
