  • My dreams exceed my real life
    I guess my problem was that I kept pushing for that thread to survive, when really, I just thought the idea of Waluigi being a Rothbardian AnCap was dumb.

    Denver's airport is really cool, and not just for the weird art

    Like, they've got people-mover trains and everything

    It is always tea time somewhere, just like how it's always either your unbirthday or your birthday

    i am Alice in Poststructuralist Land

    Kex if you ever wondered wtf i was talking about and thought i was being entirely unreasonable, there's your answer

    no
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    it's a good name
  • We can do anything if we do it together.

    was naming myself after Alice silly

    Why would it be silly?

    Why would it be silly?

    Because I named myself after an intentionally nonsensical children's book? idk

    Stop thinking that way.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    You named yourself after a beloved classic of English literature.

    Which happens to be a children's book.

    It's not silly, lots of people named their kids after that book.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    you're talking to someone who half-seriously considered naming a possible daughter after Pinkie Pie

    Alice is an actual name people have, and furthermore it's from a classic of English literature.

    It's like

    It's not like you named yourself Ebony Dementia Dark'ness Raven Way
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    or Hermione :p
  • kill living beings
    even Wendy is a perfectly usual name my phone spell check was familiar with, despite being actually invented in a relatively recent story, not just used
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    That's a very good point.
  • My dreams exceed my real life
    Or Katniss.

    Alice is a good actual name, no less from a classic of English lit, you could do a lot worse. I mean, theoretically speaking, it's no worse than calling yourself Jane because you adored Jane Eyre (I say this because I enjoyed it years back and it came to mind randomly). Heck, even if it's purely because of Alice in Wonderland, that's entirely fine, inspirations and whatnot can come from anywhere and everywhere.

    Unrelated, pretty certain I'm going to go see Suicide Squad when it comes out, at least if I remember my saying this.

    Since Disney bought the rights to Peter Pan, you have to register with the Disney Corporation if you want to change your name to that, or call a child that, though.

    . . . there probably are people calling their kids Katniss, aren't there?

    this is your fault Collins
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    Katniss also gets a mention in a metaphysics textbook i've been reading.

    There has been a growth in people named Katniss, yes.
  • kill living beings
    fuck jane eyre

    anyway I checked and wendy was occasionally used as a diminutive for Gwendolyn before Peter Pan, which I don't think is that important to the point, but I should mention it
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    Jane Eyre was good.

    Was Katniss an existing name, then?

    It's amusing to me to think that in 10-20 years we're going to encounter a lot of people born in 2008-12 named "Barack" when that name was almost unheard of in America before President Obama

    Why do you dislike Jane Eyre again, and while I'm at it are there any other books common in English lit classes that you dislike so I can see if we're opposed more. That would be fun.

    Wendy is a good name that I like.

    You should really watch Batman: The Animated Series at some point.

    There's no real story to it, but it's so great anyway.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    Oh, it's a flower name.  Well, that's very traditional.

    But i can't find reference to anyone called Katniss prior to The Hunger Games.

    If I'd been obsessed with Peter Pan instead of Alice in Wonderland at the time I came to terms with my transness, I could very well have been a Wendy instead of an Alice, honestly.

    But there's no Wendy Touhou so Crystal would still be an Alice and then we wouldn't match anymore so it's a good thing I was hittin' the Carroll.

    Anonus's streams got me interested in BTAS, which is weird because usually I'm not into superhero type stuff

    I'm a total Harley Quinn fangirl though

    i liked the early sections about school and how things were not good for jane and such, but then it became an incomprehensible romance story with a complete fucking asshole so totally unappealing it's difficult to understand the psychology of a character into him.

    i was pretty good with the rest of ye olde classic canon. i like jane austen and beowulf, which are very similar in that
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    It's not actually an ugly name, it just registers as a made-up fantasy name to me, and i reflexively dislike The Hunger Games despite not having read them because i find the premise unpleasant.

    Is this "watch it because it's good", or "watch it because it's good and it's up your alley", sort of deal.

    Hm, so we're not so in disagreement, then. Boring.

    they're actually really good
