How friggin' annoying is it to read someone else's story and find ideas and scenes that you've written but haven't yet set loose upon the world!?!?!?!?!? AAAAARRRRGGGHHHH!!!! I friggin' *hate* when that happens! It's the worst when it's integral to your story, and you're reading this other person's story, and you can feel the support beams of your fic being tugged firmly out from under the plot so the whole thing comes crashing down. Bloody, friggin' WAAAAH! Yeah, I'm a little pissed. ;-( I'm a slow ass writer, and this is my hell.
Well, while I'm bitching let's talk about Melinda. How ghetto of an operation does the world's number one band run??? Jesus, doesn't anyone realize that the woman can't write to save her friggin' life? Her updates are more annoying than informative for me - I swear, the woman borders on illiterate. I wish Johnny would hire someone to clean up this woman's band updates. Yikes!
And what's with all the "our concert in Altoona" stuff? Last time I looked, NSync didn't include a female member named Melinda. Must be a giddifying thing to work so closely with the boys, Mel, but you're not one of them. Separate thyself from the talent, please.
And last, while I'm on a roll: I detest het that's thinly veiled as slash. How about those stories that center around Kiki and her lovebug Josh (friends since they were babies!), and for forty chapters she rides on the tour bus, skips around backstage, and rubs elbows at the Grammies. Then in the last chapter - *gasp!* -JC's really in love with Justin/Chris/Joey/Lance, and sadly, must follow his heart. Kiki weeps sad, beautiful tears and sets her baby free. Gag. Me.
Oy.
OK, that's enough with the bile tonight, I think.
Hey, and I made an icon for Chris Kirkpatrick's LJ (yeah, not him, I know; thanks), but if he's not gonna use it I might start. Looks like this:

He's a cute little elfdude, and I can take a few days of spreading the ChrisLove through iconage.
