Those crazy fangirls...

Someone on the mm.org message board asks why people write yaoi. She gets a few 'don't like it? don't read it!' responses from the peanut gallery, and one short but thought-out response from me. Guessy who was right about this person's intentions? Go on, guess.

Quoteable weekends

Just a few amusing things said over the weekend.

"I don't get why Record of Lodoss War is so popular."
"Well, Record of Lodoss War is like all those D&D games we've all played. As opposed to Slayers, which is like a D&D game I would run, with you in the co-GM seat." -- me and uncreativity, in the Borders manga section in Omaha on Saturday.

"If he were human, he would be crying now."
"He's ringing. That's what rocks do."
"So this is what it sounds like when rocks cry." -- myself, gerrib, and lulidine, on my character's -- a rock being -- state of relief at seeing one of his companions was not dead.

I don't know why, but this amuses me...

Ever wonder what happens if someone takes all the bad yaoi cliches and writes a het fic in a yaoi fandom with them? People miss the point.

NANo writing meter...

I am so behind...

My Spring Schedule

Well, since mirisa_ardruna poosted her schedule for next semester, I'll post mine:

HIST181: Intro to East Asian Civilization (3 credit hours) -- I don't know what it is (beyond the obvious) but it covers my ethnicity and gender requirement -- my last general

MATH496: Bioinformatic Aspects (3 credit hours) -- I'm peeved. It doesn't count towards the three credit hours of 400-level math I need, as it's a seminar. I'll have to double up next year so I can take Partial Differential Equations (a 300-level)

PHYS343: Lasers and Optics (3 credit hours) -- My lab. With LASRERS!

PHYS451: Electromagnetic Theory (3 credit hours) -- I've heard this is hard, but that the other teacher is harder.

PHYS461: Quantum Mechanics (3 credit hours) -- I hated this in Modern Physics last year. Betcha I hate it this year too.

zannechaos posted a lot of quizzes, and I took them.
