ANIMATED ICONS ARE: Awesome when used for humor purposes; otherwise I'm not a huge fan.

I've read a ton of Merlin fic in the past few days and have come to the conclusion that while fandom is full of great fics and great authors from other fandoms migrating into fandom to write those great fics, it's also the fandom where I have had to use "?style=mine" the absolute most. Seriously, what the fuck, you guys. Merlin fandom is crazy in love with their customized journal/comment pages, and they love most of all not Expressive (which is at least readable) but tons of light-text on dark-background journal styles. MY EYES. HAVE PITY. I'm already going blind thanks to law school. :(

Speaking of which, I'm probably resuming hiatus or semi-hiatus now that classes are starting up on Monday. I already have three reading assignments for the first day of class, plus there's still job-hunting and scholarship-applying to do.

Randomly, I was downloading SJ Full House mp4s today and watched part of the first episode and nearly cried laughing, because awww, I forgot how hilarious that show was. I forgot how much I loved it, and them. Fondness. ♥ They really were so young back then though...

OKAY ONE LAST DESPERATE PLEA BEFORE I EXIT LJ: DOES ANYONE HAVE AN MP4 VERSION OF THE WONDER GIRLS' SO HOT MV? Or any performances? ;_; Please? I give up looking, maybe I just suck at this.

Aaaaand, yeah, Will/Skandar pimp post will be delayed some.

[livejournal.com profile] haldir just uploaded it for me, but thank you! :D

[identity profile] emeraldcrystal.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, I haven't noticed that about the fics! I think I'll be looking for that now. And! I'm very much looking forward to the Will/Skandar pimp. :D

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 04:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Keep an eye out! I noticed because I am pretty supremely picky about how I read my fics, so typing ?style=mine so much was a pain in the ass. XD;;

[identity profile] emeraldcrystal.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 09:52 pm (UTC)(link)
aaaah, I also want to say an apology for spamming in your posts. =_= Sorry!

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
totally okay! I don't mind. :D

[identity profile] meritjubet.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 09:30 am (UTC)(link)
Can people really read white text on black background? Because people still keep on make the same mistakes and it still hurts my eyes. Maybe they are a mythical creature... to be slayed on next week's episode of Merlin! XD I kid, I kid. About the slaying at least.

I love your happiest icon ^_^

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 04:12 pm (UTC)(link)
My happiest icon is also one of the cutest ones, but I am also really biased towards that fat baby eating the puppy alskdjfd, haha.

I think I used to be able to read white text on black backgrounds but now it drives me crazy. They say the best for your eyes is actually black test on a light blue or gray bg, because white still tends to be very bright/blinding. But thank god for ?style=mine, either way. I like default comment pages. :D

oh i ganked it from [livejournal.com profile] dbskipod, so you don't have to thank me. ;)

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 04:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I thank you anyway, because I suck at finding the right comms to dl these things. >:| ♥

:D :D ok! tysm~

Also! I am slow (I know, I know) and only just watched the Gee MV. It's super cute. :DDD

[identity profile] haldir.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
omg isn't it? i've got it on my ipod and i swear, i woke up this morning, rolled over in bed and put it on three times in a row. sobs why am i like this ;-;

...Eagerly awaits W/S pimp post like whoa... I feel so ashamed...

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 04:07 pm (UTC)(link)
laksdjf I will make time for it, I swear! Though it really is a fic rec post more than anything... But they're so nice to look at, I should probably get at least a few pics. :3

[identity profile] mardigrasmaven.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Mmmm, pics... that'll be nice. Plus I trust you to find damn good fic. I know you can do that. :D

[identity profile] uminohikari.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I kind of thought SJ was worse with the light text color on white background :x

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 07:53 pm (UTC)(link)
ahhh SJ (and kpop in general) and its need for "artsy" fics. Seriously, light gray six point font font on a white bg? fuck you very much. >:(

though maybe I managed to avoid the majority of those fics, because I don't recall using ?style=mine as much...

[identity profile] meemobunny.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 09:57 pm (UTC)(link)
i haven't read enough merlin fic to notice this trend, but when i'm too lazy to type in ?style=mine, i go to view>>page style>>no page style and that strips the page of all formatting. black, 12-pt font on white background, yay~ :Db i think there's a function for paid accounts to automatically view all entries as ?style=mine...?

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-01-11 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
there is! I'm just too lazy to go do that...plus I don't mind seeing customized journals if they're readable! Just comment pages need to be default alksdjflkd for fic anyway. Ack.

Yes, it's definitely a pick-me-up kind of drama. :) But also yes, super long episodes aslkdfdj. Makes for a good one-ep-per-night kind of watching...

[identity profile] arccie.livejournal.com 2009-01-17 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Ahh icons.
I really need to update mine (but I have been having a bad time creatively and thus have no new ones)
Kind of in love with your best quote one.

Hmm, I'm finally starting to hit up the merlin fandom and I know what you mean. I can read them, but I prefer my black text so i don't feel liek me eyes are bleeding by the end of it.

[identity profile] meiface.livejournal.com 2009-01-18 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
Oooh, you're getting into Merlin fandom too? :D There's so much good fic for such a new fandom, which makes me happy. Usually new fandoms have a few gems and lots of...less-awesome fics. Not so here!
