Some dudes with a camera asked Bill Murray for an autograph, and instead of giving them one he offered to shoot a Wes Anderson-style slow motion walk with them.

something else that bothers me about glee

longroadstonowhere:

(yes yes, big surprise, glee is frustrating)

this has to do with finn, but for once he’s not the problematic person

it disturbs me just how the characters reacted against his wanting to join the army. i mean, the army is dangerous and i do feel it’s not the best of choices to enlist straight out of high school, but i have a friend who joined up with the marines right after graduation, and he’s doing just fine. the show treats joining the army like it’s the absolute worst choice, or it’s something for people who have no hope left to do, but it is a legitimate life choice and quite honestly, i applaud finn for going for something that he wants to do for himself (well, for his dad, but mostly for himself).

Hmmm. I appreciate all of the sacrifices the armed forces make, along with all the hard work they do, but I thought everyone reacting negatively was realistic to some extent. I know quite a few people back home who joined the army or have loved ones who joined the army, and it’s tough for everyone. When someone goes to Afghanistan, everyone hopes they come back in one piece- physically AND mentally. It is quite possible they won’t. War is awful. I’m not saying the army is an illegitimate choice- it’s just a very DANGEROUS one, for that person and everyone who will take care of them once they come home.

Getting into “lol Emily’s stupid opinions” territory under the cut.

Comics are horrifying

You know when I think about it

all the new fans who are getting into comics through the movies

and then they see certain crap happening to their babies

and then they’re all NOPE NOPE WE DID NOT SIGN UP FOR THIS

oh god I’ve never thought of this

no one prepared them for anything

I mean can you imagine falling on love with a character and expecting everything to have a happy ending like the movies

and then they pick up some comics and start reading

and they aren’t even disappointed I bet

I’m sorry guys.

#welcome to comics #you are probably scarred for life #this isn’t anything you were ever trained for

I helped one of my friends get into comics recently. I’m not sure whether to feel pleased with myself for being helpful and having someone to talk comics with, or to feel incredibly guilty because comics.

#being-a-fan-of-comics-is-the-most-masochistic-thing-ever #especially-if-you’re-a-woman

Storytime: I almost got into comics through Scans_Daily. Through SD, I learned two things:

  1. Comics have a lot of neat ideas in them
  2. Comics are bullshit

Over time, I saw that the bullshit predominated.

The moral of the story is I don’t go to S_D anymore and that’s not because of anything I thought was wrong with S_D.

I’m basically in have-no-money-for-comics limbo as well as being sick of the mainstream superhero stuff. On a diet of webcomics and saving up for graphic novels or mini-comics at comic conventions/festivals, currently.

There’s so much to love in superhero comics, but it’s a guarantee that they will break your heart, and I’m mostly done with giving money to the Big Two for stuff that just makes me end up feeling like I’m in a really not-fun dysfunctional relationship with comics.

(BTW: It’s refreshing to hear someone say that about s_d.)
