girlofpreyHELLO FRIENDS. I COME TO YOU TODAY WITH GOOD TIDINGS. It is the story of a guy called Edgardo, A Guy Called Squid, and an RPG forum/world full of jerks.
Read it, you won't be disappointed
I haven't posted in a while, essentially because most of what I'm doing is playing Minecraft. Which is a game that's very attention-consuming but also probably very dull to talk about. I have a house and a furnace and sheep and cows and pigs and 4 wolves, one of whom I bred from the other wolves. They have names but not different coloured collars, because apparently that's not available in the PS3 version. I just have to remember which one's Simba, Kimba, Benny or Jenny. Also I am growing melons and sugar cane and I planted some rosebeds. It's all very good. Eventually I hope to get onto some proper mining. And crafting. Although I presume a lot of that's not available in the PS3 version either. Hmph.
In TV news...um. I hate David from Emmerdale. I always felt like I should, and now I really do. Fuck you David. And I caught a bit of Farscape: The Peacekeeper Wars over Christmas, and it was genuinely awful, but Crichton and Scorpius continued to be gay so I kind of got back into that fandom.
And in Coronation Street - Tina has gone, but before she did we all got to lol at her saying if it wasn't for Carla, she and Peter would be together by now. Without going on to say "and he'd be cheating on me instead". Nice go at trying to throw Tina's character in at the end there, writers. Shame you couldn't have done that during the actual storyline.
Roy and Hayley continue to be super sad, but that's sort of par for the course for the storyline. I do like Carla being a Jam Failure though. And I don't really like Nick or Leanne, but they managed to actually really touch me with their scenes on Monday (NB: I haven't seen tonight's episodes yet). I still kind of hope they split up, because I hate them both and especially together, but...you know.
Owen talked everyone into going into a dodgy deal with him by saying how much money they'd make and how well they could look after theirwomen significant others in the future, without anyone pointing out he'd take care of them REALLY BADLY while bankrupt or in jail. It didn't have to be a winning argument in the scene. It would just have been nice if someone said it. But no.
And David and Kylie were IMMEDIATELY back up to their old tricks in their house, in ways that Gail was as astounded by as I was. Fine. Okay. What does this mean, scriptwriters? Things are back to normal in the Platt-Macintyre house? Your storylines are basically hieroglyphics now.
And I don't like Todd being a wanker, but at least he can act and he makes sense. Also I am weirded out that the debate over Marcus' sexuality hasn't at any point involved the word 'bisexual'. Like - has he FORGOTTEN he used to fancy guys? And apparently continues to fancy guys. There are more options than 'gay' and 'straight'. Especially when all evidence points to that fact. Is this a conversation Marcus had when he started dating Maria? I don't think I watched those scenes. The world is weird about bisexuality I guess. Whatever.
Oh, and I finished Yonderland, the Sky show from the Horrible Histories team. I quite liked it, and I hope they get a new series. Also I kind of shipped Debbie/Negatus, but that's par for the course. I DIDN'T REALISE ABOUT SIMON FARNABY'S EYES UNTIL THEY PUT HIM IN WHITE MAKE-UP AND GAVE HIM ALL THE CLOSE-UPS. But now I do. I hope they get a second series. From what I hear it's been popular, so maybe.
