Fish, Reviewer, Story, Review
Jul. 16th, 2004 04:50 pmFirst, since today is Friday, and we stay at the school late, I stole the fish and snails and put them back. I hate the teacher. Hate. He's fucking kept them for more than a week. AND he put them all in the same tank. So the fish are starving and attacking the snails. At least I noticed the dragonfly nymph before they finished tearing it up and moved it in time.
They say fish can go weeks without eating. This is true. What people are too damn stupid to understand is that they are WILD FISH. Hungry WILD FISH have to find food, because they are WILD. This means they have to take RISKS and end up eaten by OTHER HUNGRY WILD ANIMALS because they haven't eaten for a week or two and can't wait until it's safer.
From now on I'm just going to remove them and say they died. It's true enough.
In the internet world, because, as usual, its vapid pointlessness is nice, I'd like to draw everyone's attention to the review left by Yukimi the Ice Goddess
Now THIS is a pokemon fic worth reading. I've seen a lot, but this is starting out great! ^_^
Please update again soon! I really want to see the way it turns out! Maybe review other stories to grab attention (hint hint). ^_^
Gah. Just...gah. She's review whoring while trying to teach someone else to review whore.
And I found a new monstrosity of a story, Pokemon: New Generation by Kid Pokemon. It's a more impressive self-insert than usual because he inserts his girlfriend in with him. Let us now bow our heads in horror...
I reviewed, so who knows how long it'll be up. I managed to be 'nice' for most of it, up until the point where it slides into abject stupidity and I become harsh (the second half of the story, where the author forgets that his self-insert has just met the girl and so she shouldn't be saying things like "Sorry, [my charmander is] really over protective. He even growls at my mother from time to time. He never growls at Lloyd or me for some reason...." when she's just met him. The charmander which, incidentally, she dove into a river save despite the fact she's afraid of water. Also when all story continuity dies a horrible death and I can barely follow it.)
Although I could be wrong about how cruel I was. Judge for yourself.
( The Review of Horror )
Also, I'd like to take a moment for the mocking of the description. Just because it's the most outstanding thing in the story.
Lloyd's description:"Meet Lloyd, a 15-year-old boy in the world of Pokemon. He was a kid with a dark complexion, black, curly hair, a red t-shirt, light-blue jeans, and a good-guy attitude. He was kind of chubby and about 5 feet 7 inches." The next OT story writer to describe their character as being 'about' five feet and whatever inches shall be beaten with rulers. Inches are precise! They are a unit of measurement! Precise!
Evelon's description:"A fairly thin girl was in the passenger side of the truck. She was about 5 feet and 5 inches tall, wearing black, baggy, flare jeans, a waist length, black t-shirt with a white skull on the front, a purple sweat band on her left wrist, a purple watch on her right wrist, a small, silver, loop earring in each ear, a silver chain dog collar around her neck, steel toe boots with the steel on the outside, and a purple Pokéball belt with one Pokéball.
She sighed as she looked at herself in the rear view mirror. She had milky white skin and lavender eyes. She looked at her hair. It was waist length, wavy black hair with purple streaks dyed into it. She quickly put it up into a ponytail and got out of the truck to help unload." As you can tell, she's obviously an albino who's dyed her hair. Also obviously lying about the ability to see herself in the mirror, since people with 'lavender' eyes have something like 200/20 vision. Which might explain her horrible clothing.
And because it's impressive too, Draco the charmander's description:"It opened to reveal a Charmander. It was different because it had a black collar with small spikes on it. It also had a scar over its right blue eye" Fear the specialness. Fear the gothpunkness. Fear.
And off I go.
