i don't get why people make gifs of dramatic/sad/whatever scenes
like you decontextualize the thing from everything else surrounding it and it pretty much always becomes fucking hilarious instead of whatever it was before.
Marble Hornets isn't terribly popular, all things considered. Last time I checked only the first video has over a million views and the rest generally hover around eighty thousand views.

Probably because they weren't intended for people who weren't fans of what was being gif'd?
I know that at the very least I'm not a fan of Doctor Who but seeing a gifset of the "I love you" scene was enough to make me somewhat sad.
there was this homestuck one, nice and short with kinda weird fiction/horror overtones and some nice character study that has really stuck with me but i have long since forgotten the name
of course it seems like most fanfiction is bloated and pointless but that's the nature of the beast i suppose
if i'm reading some lengthy nerd thing i feel guilty because i own so many actual books i haven't read, and i can actually cite those for my assignments
I meant for that post to be interpreted as not entirely serious, thus why I did it as Quip. I'm not going to say it was entirely right, though, because it wasn't. Kex and I have different tolerances for that sort of thing, and I was perfectly aware of that but I didn't care because I've been keeping him on a bit of a short leash due to two events in particular, both of which occurred on Tumblr. A stupid move on my part.
Instead of airing my grievances out, I sidestepped them by saying petty shit that I didn't want to take credit for as my real self, and for that I apologize to Kex and anyone else who might've been offended. I was wrong, I realize that, and I will try to keep stuff like that from happening any further.
It's cool, I don't mind. He's mostly just a diversion from the norm anyway.
I'm willing to sit and rethink the idea of his existence, though. The whole concept of a rebellious inner persona is far too interesting to me to leave unused.

after having seen it in gif form like 50 bazillion times on my dash finally watching sherlock jump off the damn building was acutely satisfying
like FINALLY
some fanfics are quite long, and i read slowly
if i'm reading some lengthy nerd thing i feel guilty because i own so many actual books i haven't read, and i can actually cite those for my assignments
the fandom makes it out to be a lot more boring and feelsy than it actually is
i still haven't seen that episode of Sherlock, and i hate how everyone on the Internet decided to spoil that scene the moment it happened
like i don't loathe spoilers in the way i used to, i'm not so obsessive and weird about them anymore, but they still kinda irk me
especially when it's something big and people are so casual about it
Because over in the TVT pony thread, there's three other people with the Luna, Pinkie, and Fluttershy versions of that same picture.
But, I may well be the only one, so don't be bothered by what I think if that's the case.
sorry Tre
mostly he just seems to insult you and other heapers
kind of a one-note gag
