who am i talking to here anyway

[idan_cohen]

Jesus christ but you're all fucking boring. I've been filled with the inexpressibe, unkenable, unspeakable urge to read some very bad Swords & Sorcery; and i'm not talking Michael Moorcock here, i'm not even talking Terry Brooks bad here. I'm talking Dragonlance fanfiction bad. I'm talking not-ready-for-prime-zine caliber, here. Fuck if me I haven'

You're not truly bronze until somebody describes you as "swarthy" even in the winter, mate.

Also, I have forgotten how awesome my Hawaiian shirts are. I've developed a small habit of always wearing one.

Also also- I landed my first journalistic gig already! Completely pro-bono amateur thing done in return for doing some investigation of cheap food places to put into next year's convention guide.. but, hell, it fluffs the resume.

As for bad fiction... dude. Fanfiction.net is right there, Idan.

I've been at a con where in the course of three days 10% of the attendees were wringing themselves out into toilets. I managed to avoid this fate but brought it home to my partner.

Well, you asked.

Also, I beg you to resist the s&s fanfic impulse. Resist! At least go for good s&s.

But there's still literary merit in bad s&s fics!

Namely, what not to do, under any cost, even if you have to lob off your own hands to prevent it from occurring.

The same could be said for some John Ringo books, come to think of it.

God, I have a long Baen rant somewhere in me, just waiting for the right moment to burst out of my stomach with some sort of dramatic chord.

I have a Stratocaster clone with a decent, heavily distorted amp. Gimme the word, and you'll have your chord.

there are crazy hijinks going on in the LJ election, if you can find them.

I have been up to very little indeed. I have had strange dreams in which I called upon Greek gods, and also have applied for a job in the Canadian town where my father was born. Otherwise I grow old and dull.

Also, you on ICQ or Windows Messenger ever? I've pinged (pung?) you occasionally but no reply.

I am on AIM, like, all the time.
