Why do people think that a man calling his love interest "kitten", "sugar", "babe", "baby" or any other endearing truck-driver-esque nickname is the height of sexiness? To me it just sounds trashy. Especially if it's absolutely OOC for the character to do so, as he's Brittish, upper-class and terribly snooty.

I don’t hate you at all, and you’re not a terrible writer. However, your approach to writing and reading fic can get annoying.

( No, you are not too special for proper punctuation. )

( What part of “I’m not interested” don’t you understand? )

Dear brand-new addition to my list of authors to avoid,

These days it's practically trendy to have lots of kids. Look at Brangelina. Or the Duggars. But a recent episode of WEtv's "Secret Lives of Women" focuses on the Quiverfull movement and shows the darker side of big, Quiverfull families.


As Kathryn Joyce, author of Quiverfull: Inside the Christian Patriarchy Movement, reveals in the episode, the movement began in the 1980s as a reaction to feminism. "Good" Christian women, many of them in the home-schooling community, embraced homemaking as their highest calling and left family planning in God's hands.

Says Rachel Scott, a mother of eight and grandmother of one who was featured in the episode, "I believe conceiving children and giving birth is an act of worship. You're submitting to God's goal for the planet and God's goal for you as a woman." She adds that women should submit to men, in her opinion.

But not all Quiverfull mothers are happy being submissive to God and their husbands. Although Vyckie Garrison was involved in the movement for 14 years, she divorced her husband and left the Quiverfull movement after her daughter attempted suicide.

The Sourceman Commeth Thrice

The second Glee soundtrack, Glee: The Music, Volume 2, is set to be released on December 8th, 2009 by Columbia Records. It will feature songs from episodes 9 -13 (”Wheels” through “Sectionals”) and will not be the last soundtrack for season one.
Pre-order it here on Amazon.com now!
Here’s a quote from EW Music Mix’s Tim Stack:
Personally, I cannot wait for “True Colors” and “My Life Would Suck Without You!” And co-creator Brad Falchuk says that the cast performance of “Imagine,” which is a collaboration with a deaf choir, is truly something special. “I’m warning you to prepare for that,” says Falchuk. “There’s been no one who’s watched that number and not cried. It’s the most amazing thing you’ve ever seen.”

It's amazing how a movie with humanoid dolls can have sexual tension, much less badly executed tension.

Here's a video from Michael Lohan's reality pilot where he's standing in the rain, trying to be electrocuted for Lindsay



When you do shit like this, even if they're just for theatrics, you're insane, and possibly, dangerous, and even worse, shameless about how dangerously insane you are in the name of "protecting" your daughter while trying to invoke a higher power to electrocute you.

Character A gives Character B some DVDs and says they (A and B, not the DVDs) are made for each other, just like Han and Leia. Very nice. Except the story is set around 1976.

DVDs hadn't been invented yet.

Theatrical films were only just beginning to be released on video. There was a limited selection and they were expensive. Hard as it is to believe, there was a time when people did not own all of their favorite movies and watched them whenever they liked. They had to wait for them to be shown on TV. Horrible, I know. My parents still have nightmares about it.

Star Wars hadn't been released yet. Even if the story takes place a year later than I've guessed, only the first one had been released, it wasn't on video, and the Han/Leia relationship didn't exist yet. (I'm sure some people 'shipped Han/Leia from the beginning, but Character A was clearly trying to give examples of established couples, not his personal, not-yet-canon OTPs).

It's such a brief, minor scene, but it completely threw me out of the story. I don't expect authors to do in-depth research on the history of home video, but at least know what technologies were available and the release dates of any movies referenced.

Sounds very interesting to say the least, and it looks like Merlin will need his best friend there for him when it matters the most like it did last episode which in my opinion bought A/M back to season one status.

PLAYBOY: Your Lolita-inspired photo shoot in our December issue is stunning, and Richard Kern is a master, but you're a creative person yourself. When you’re starring in someone else’s work does it make you itch to be calling the shots yourself?
GREY: It definitely does. This shoot was Richard's, but it’s a great challenge when you arrive to a set to do something you don’t normally do. They put me in clothes and hair and makeup that I probably would never wear, but it’s fun because you’re playing. Lately I’ve been getting my creative kicks shooting a lot of my own stuff. I’ll think of set designs and we’ll build them, sometimes something I thought of the night before. It’s fun to be able to do that and not feel constrained.
