So I was doing some of my friendsfriends hopping this morning and the first thing I have to say is that I want to maim half the members of _hydeist. I just... I don't understand. Their minds boggle me and make my head hurt. I mean... the most recent post is an obvious manip. (I mean, his head is too freaking small and he has a woman's body, for gods' sake.) But the person had to stop and ask and no one's been able to tell them that it is, actually, a manip. And I'm not even going to start on the smushing of solo and Laruku together. Just... they're DIFFERENT. Different styles, different producers, different record labels. NOT THE SAME. (And that is my biggest pet peeve of the so-called Hyde fandom... it seems to be the Hyde-and-Laruku fandom. Yet the other artists' solo projects are either forgotten or treated seperately. So NOT cool.)

Must. Resist. Urge. To. Stab. Fandom. ...Will go scan things in, instead.


Sorry. Had to get that out.


Anyway. Brother's birthday party today. I fear oh so very much. Plan to hide in my room all day. (Goddess... need to stop typing "hyde" all the time >.o) Apparantly he's invited like 20 people. Oh, mom was mad when she found that out. I guess with my sister and I both always being more the loner types and having only small groups of friends has gotten her too used to that. Unfortunately, that's not the way my brother works. He's callous, unthinking, and somehow popular. (Not that I wan't popularish in my day, I just tended to stay away from large crowds what with being agoraphobic and all... I actually knew and was known by pretty much everyone in my grade (as well as many people from the younger grades), which is pretty impressive considering I had a graduating class of 80-something. I blame the fact that I was yearbook editor for 3 years.)

Mmn. Have other thoughts. Must go write them.


<EDIT> Since I'm apparantly feeling talkative today and this rather... just... ugh. This is a typical scene in my house:
brother: *runs downstairs about 2 minutes before his class is supposed to start* Can you drive me to karate?
me: *doing something else, usually homework, and in pajamas* I'm in my pajamas. And busy. *glare* Why didn't you get ready 10 minutes earlier and walk?
him: It's like -40C out, too cold.
me: *knows it's nowhere near that and has been walking in this weather all week between bus stops and such, also thinking that if he bothered to put some clothes on before going to karate instead of just going in his gi (gee? gei?) with no socks he'd be fine* Fine. *more glaring*
him: *rushes off to finish getting ready*
me: *wonders if the car will even start since it hasn't been given time to warm up, first*

Hate that boy, sometimes. </EDIT>

As much as I like 'ical, I can't stand that comm. I've glanced over it a couple of times, but ... yeah. No.

My biggest pet peeve with the fandom is how it's "Hyde's band".
IT'S NOT HYDE'S BAND.
ARGH.
adnsdnldnadla.
Or "ohh I'm such a big fan of Laruku! ... what's D'ARC~EN~CIEL? Why was Sakura kicked out? Who is Sakura?" *twitches*

Uhm, happy birthday nutmeg's brother?

[lirimaer.livejournal.com]

*nods* That's another big one. If anything, it's Tetsu's band. I mean. He was the one whose solo stuff sounded most like Laruku (though even then it was still fairly distinct) and you can really hear where the certain infulences come from.

His birthday is actually in Feb, but parents are going to be away on a cruise during the week of, so he's having his party early. (Which reminds me that I need to poke Kia again. >.>)

[talillama.livejournal.com]

Mm, and Tetsu started the band and gathered everyone together *prods certain fans* Ah well. Fandoms would probably get boring if we didn't have morons to prod with sticks.

[lirimaer.livejournal.com]

*nods* Tetsu was also the original vocalist... though it wasn't for long, really. From my understanding it was only a month between starting the band and recruiting Hyde.

[talillama.livejournal.com]

Oh and that thing about the manip ... at first I read it as "manimp" and I ... was very amused.

[lirimaer.livejournal.com]

^^;;

[talillama.livejournal.com]

lol manimp, I can't stop giggling.

Then, the bit about his head being too small, that made me laugh even more with my manimp image.

[lirimaer.livejournal.com]

*shakes head* Silly girl. It is, though, f you look at the picture. It looks like his face is set to 95% while his body is at 100%. It's a little scary, actually.

[talillama.livejournal.com]

Mmm. I always did think that there was something off with that picture, but I was never quite sure what. Now that you mention it though, I do think it's his noggin that's off.

[lirimaer.livejournal.com]

It might have been fine with the original woman, perhaps, but it just doesn't look like Hyde's body shape. Hyde actually has a rather large head in comparison to the rest of his body. I think whoever made the manip, though talented, didn't take that into consideration.

xD *dies* I know 8D *sigh* But eh, my attitude is "let them have their fun 8D as long as there's no catfights or plots to break up Hyde and Megumi's marriage or insulting posts" 8D

And omg I didn't even know there was such a thing as /friendsfriends ! 8D Now I have two pages to go refresh-high on! 8D

xD wow you do seem talkative today~ waii~ *pets* Have fun hyding [;D] from your brothers friends :D

[lirimaer.livejournal.com]

Please tell them it's a manip. You can use some of the evidence I've said here or whatever. It's just... bloody painful that people could think that might actually be Hyde when it looks like such an obvious manip to my eyes. I mean... those are women's thighs without a doubt. Men's legs aren't as fat on the top as women's are.

XD I could probably show you all sorts of fun hidden LJ-secrets.

[314159.livejournal.com]

xD I have told them :D if they ask any more questions or bombard me with "YOU LIE!!! THAT IS HYDE YOU BIG MEANIE T___T!!"s I'll be sure to back them up with critical evidence via nutmeg <3 xDD

8D Please do~ I'm quite distressed that their isn't a /friendsfriendsfriends page T-T-- *killed* 8D

[314159.livejournal.com]

Wait 8D nepenthes59 saved me the trouble and told them exactly what's on our minds... *dies~* Thank God 8D *sigh of relief*

[lirimaer.livejournal.com]

Aw, Helayne is great.

[314159.livejournal.com]

:D waii yup~

[lirimaer.livejournal.com]

It's insane when people can't tell a manip. I mean, a good cosplayer, I can understand mistaking, but manips always have a clue on them as to their fakeness.

:O Oh, the joys of the LJ sitemap (http://www.livejournal.com/site/)! Some of the coolest features on LJ include things like syndicated feeds (http://www.livejournal.com/syn/), to-do list (http://www.livejournal.com/todo/), and ScrapBook (http://pics.livejournal.com/). They also have a lot of random fun stuff like friends' birthdays list (http://www.livejournal.com/birthdays.bml) and popular among your friends (http://www.livejournal.com/friends/popwithfriends.bml). No one ever really explores LJ to see all the cool stuff, though.

[314159.livejournal.com]

xD yeah o_o Especially when they're out of proportion like that 8D *twitch*

o_o... the friends' birthdays list... is a lifesaver... *-* THANK YOU xD *dies* Where have you been all this time~? 8D *life is made like 2347x easier now*

And ooh >:D *oggles all these new features* 8D

[kagome-angel.livejournal.com]

*Long look at own friends list* Did I join that community? O.o;; It scares me... I never look at the pages or what-have-you, but now I must look at see what you mean by this manip.

I believe I've told you my opinion on Hyde/Laruku communities before. XD I think a Hyde community should be meant for... well... HYDE. Hyde's solo works, ne? I mean, he is WONDERFUL in Laruku. Laruku as a whole is a great, beautiful band and I am glad I became a fan of them.

But, still... shouldn't the Hyde community be mainly about his solo works? Posting something about Tetsu or Yuki in there would be like... I dunno... posting something that's Gakuhai in the Haitsu community (OMG I must sound like such a heretic after posting "Mental" in the Gakuhai community ^^;; Well... it did involve Gakuhai. XD).

*Loves Hyde and his solo works*

*Loves Laruku*

*Loves Tetsu69 and SOAP and Acid Android, but hates how they seem to be ignored when it comes to THEIR projects*

It is pitiful, you know. Tetsu is wonderful, even apart from Laruku, and he doesn't get even half as much publicity as SOAP...

I'm rambling! I always ramble when I comment on your entries and I'm sorry. :P

*Kicks your brother for being a jerk*
