Xander ,'Lessons'
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.
From my original post:
The latest is that Player is claiming that he really is Adam Player and Amy Player is his Actual Evil Twin.
Adam should read Andrew. Sorry about that. I keep thinking he was an Adam somewhere along the way and then mixing that up with Andrew. It's Andrew Blake aka Andrew Player.
Unrelated to the fandomwank brouhaha, can someone explain what "female characters getting fridged" means for me please?
It refers to female characters being killed in order to advance a male character's storyline. Usually to give him angst and stuff.
Thanks Dana. I had noticed that plot element overused way too often before, but I hadn't realized it has a handy title.
I am occasionally entertained at how often these discussions in teh blogosphere end up using a link to TVTropes.com. And I remember being one of the first tropers.
Huh.
I can't quite believe that the site is also the focus of a lot of the Victoria Bitter wank.
I always feel the same way when tvtropes comes up -- even more so when it happens in real life (my ex-boss discovered the site the other day and a half a dozen people immediately twittered "see you in a few months!" and the like) (as did I, but also thought "hey, I was there before it was even a domain!")
I always feel kind of skeeved when it comes up.
(Hell, Sean and I, we were ADMINS in the first days! Ahahaha.)
Well, yeah, that too. Mostly, it's a "Let me splain... no, is too much. Let me sum up... no, even that is no fucking way going to fit into a tweet."

Too weird; didn't tweet? (tw;dt?)
