and miserable...and like...afraid to read FF right now. : ) 

So I bring you....

The amazing things I see on the web!

*echoes*

web...web...web...  

THE HORROR VERSION! dun-dun-dun!

WTH??

Yeah according to the thread I was reading...someone got this...as a gift!

Old School Brothel Menu:

Do I even want to know what "Dog Fashion" is? 

Japanese Nail Art: 

I love Hello Kitty...but I don't *love* Hello Kitty...

Twilight Silliness: 

My FAVORITE Twi Tat:

Can we even begin to appreciate the awesome-ness?

Soooooo...how are you?

A/N: I'm super hopped up on dayquil so...forgive the randomness? 

In a LA CONFIDENTIAL interview Uma Thurman talks about her recent movie roles, New Year's resolutions, and other things, including her upcoming film Bel Ami, which is set to begin filming soon in London, where she will play Rob’s character’s wife. 

from the article...

LAC: What’s special about your upcoming film Bel Ami besides Robert Pattinson, who is so big right now, being your costar?

UT: He is a big star right now. I’m excited because the film is a classical, technical piece of work, and it’s beautiful. It’s a bit of bedroom drama. It’s a romance between Rob and a number of Parisian housewives.

LAC: And you’re one of the love interests?

UT: I end up marrying him, but there are some twists. My daughter is like, “Mom, why do you keep getting these roles where you’re getting younger men?” And I said, “Well at least I don’t do it in real life.”

(read more here)

~~~

Personally, I'm excited to see Rob in this film, and with an older woman...(HOTTTT).  And I love Uma Thurman. 

CONFESSION TIME: In the late 80's she dated a director I may or may not have been slightly obsessed with....and her brother may or may not have been attending Wesleyan University where my bff may or may not have been attending at the same time.  I ADMIT NOTHING... but it might be possible that bff and I stalked her brother...just a little.  I may or may not have made out with one of his good friends. (by my count....that's only 4 degrees of separation between me and Rob~~~we're practically married, srsly)

I'm obsessed with this pic today...guhh

Ok, we had heartfail last night/ yesterday.

Now I would like to know...(Is there a limit as to how many posts I can put up within 24 hrs? (R U sick of me?))

I wanna know what the FUNNIEST FICS are that you have read so far in the fandom.

Share and if you can post links so we can all share while we stay away from The Topic Which Shall NOT Be Named today.

What was FUNNY about the characters' personalities?

Actions?

Circumstances?

Do you have a funny gif that you think makes a good snapshot of that spot in the fic or that fic in general?

I would like to see if ya'll are as dry and dark in your humor as I am.

Hey Ladies!

This is just something I want to address quickly because I've been running into it A LOT lately and I find that it's mostly because authors simply don't know. If you find this completely obvious, please move on and enjoy your day.

To most banner-makers, it's really important (and polite) if you credit the banner-maker NEXT to the banner in your summary or profile. If you are really opposed to that, than at least credit them inside the story (unless the banner-maker specifically asks you not to).

I know we spend like .0001% of the time that you spend on writing your story making the banner, but it's still good form to get the name of the banner-maker out there to the public. Often times that's the only way we are recognized in the fandom (especially if  we don't write fic).

*Edit- Sorry, I should mention that this is my opinion. Please feel free to agree or disagree. I'm just speaking from my own experience and talking with other banner-makers, but obviously there are always shades of grey and I'd love to hear your opinion on the matter. =)

Do you credit your banner-maker?

Just to make the post prettier, I made 2 new banners yesterday:

If you want a banner from me, my forum is here:

So this is just a silly campfire. I've been trying to get people into ff's and ADF, and it's been kinda hard. I've noticed that people are a bit hesitant to move away from the Canon universe into the smut filled wonderful land of Fanfiction! I guess we've become immune to it. But anyway, that wasn't the point of this. I wanted some ideas of what I could be doing. I've tried bribing (and some of you know that I am good at that), I've tried making intellectual observations as to why this place is wonderful, I've created a community just for All Vamp fics, I've even gotten into full on fangirl squee mode, and some of its worked, but I can't get them to keep up with it. Or maybe, I'm just a hopeless addict? I don't know, but I want them to suffer my addiction alongside me! HAHAHA, just kidding, maybe.

So, give me your ideas!!!

Capricorn75 is already sharing some pretties, I plan on blinding you ;)

ROB AND CAP75 WANT TO WISH EVERYONE A PEACEFUL, DRAMA-FREE DAY. AND IF YOU ARE INSPIRED TO POST SOME CANDY IN THIS THREAD, THAT WOULD BE AWESOME.

Who/What author makes you cry the most?

Why?

Is it a GOOD cry or a BAD cry?

Have you ever really identified with any of the characters out there in ficland?

What world do you identify best with?

Are you emo?

Are you level-headed?

Why do you identify or think your life parallels the fic?

Write something that you LEARNED about yourself from ff.

Because I think it would be fun....

Put these characters in order of their do-ability 1-8.

1=  He wouldn't even have to ask politely.

8=  He probably still wouldn't even have to ask politely, but you might require a beer or two first.

Tyler, Art, Edward, Toby, Daniel, Cedric, Rawdy Crawley (is that even his name?) and Dali (before or after 'stache.  YOU decide.)

Tuesday's almost over here in North America, what are you looking forward to tomorrow?

Thought I might give the night shift a chance to discuss, but there is nothing like getting hissed at.

(omg, I have to start a DBoreanaz folder for WTVoC...gebus)

Enjoy.  w/e

Too much drama.
I'm getting depressed.

So can we have a post about things we love? (no ranting this time.)

And I love this video:

I love kittens, Rob, fmylife.com, Rob, ADF, Rob, drama free places, and Rob. Did I mention Rob?

I'm going to bed soon. I hope there's gonna be lots of love when I wake up :)

EDIT: AND I LOVE HL5

THIS POST HAS BEEN APPROVED BY THE RANGERS

Look.  We recognize there are strong feelings regarding this subject.  However, that is not license to bash another website or any member or admin thereof.  We do have members who frequent Twilighted AND ADF, we want them to feel comfortable everywhere.  Twilighted acted according to their rules, and while you can feel free to discuss and speculate about their motivation, please, keep the hate out of it.

Classy, cuz you're a Camper.

Rangers, feel free to delete this is it's not okay.

Well, many of you know the drama of yesterday night. Apparently now, I have to face the repercussions from twilighted. They are deleting my story and my forum account because one of my stories I marked as NC-17 because there's a small 2-paragraph lemon that is not at all graphic.

Here's my repsonse email:

Technically it's not NC-17. There is one tiny "lemon" in one chapter, but it does not go into much detail. And actually, I'm not 14. I just haven't updated my account info in awhile.

 I know what this is about. And really, I do not find it fair that my story that I put so much time and effort into is going to be deleted from your website. I don't mean to offend, but clearly none of this would have been a problem if not for yesterday's events, and it s very upsetting that this is how you guys would take your anger out on me.

 I have thouroughly supported Twilighted, introducing many family members and friends to your website, and sticking up for it when people have brought your website into question. Frankly, I'm very dissappointed.

 I'd very much appreciate a response.

 Thank you, Michelle

So I don't get it? Why are people in this fandom so dramatic? Anyone have any thoughts?

This is all really stressful and upsetting, and I don't know if I shouldn't just leave the fandom at this point. I can't deal with the hate and mean-spirited actions anymore. This is getting to be too much.

So, Ranger Emibella has bit her lip more than Bella in a fanfic in the past 24 hours so I am expecting this to be a big post.

That means that I want your stuff, the stuff you are reading, the stuff you want rec'd to you..dude I want it all. I want so many links in this that it looks like a prison fence. I want your art, your favorite art, your fic, your favorite fic. Whatever. I just want a great place to go to find something fabulous.

THIS WEEK I AM PIMPING our own HMONSTER04 who has written the first one shot for our Emmett Valentines Day Challenge. IT IS FABULOUS!!

The Princess and the Man-Child by HMonster4

You should read it and leave her a review and then GET WORKING ON YOUR OWN EMMETT FIC. (Don't let us down) Or make me a new Banner. Mine is pretty lame

 NOW IT'S TIME TO PIMP!

ps. also thank you to Melissa Cullen for the PM! :)

(No joke, I put a "D" instead of the "F" in the word "fic" up there...Freudian slip, I guess.)

I am looking for a fic.

Bella travels to a town and its raining really hard.  She gets stranded there and goes to the Red Cross or soemthing (the highschool maybe?) and meets Edward who is a bastard to her and everyone around him.  This is because he was thought to have murdered someone in his family(?)

Thank you so much!

from  Eclipsemovie.org & MTV.com:

In anticipation of seeing Robert Pattionson on the big screen sans Edward Cullen, Emilie de Ravin talked with MTV about the upcoming flick, Remember Me, the frenzy of Rob-obsessed fans and her chemistry with Pattinson.

MTV: So how did “Remember Me” come your way? Did you have to read with Rob?

De Ravin: They’d been looking to cast my role for a while, looking at a lot of different girls. I read the script three weeks before they started shooting. I flew to New York to test with Rob and we immediately got along and had instant great chemistry, which is not an easy thing to come by. Obviously you’re acting, but you want to have that connection with somebody. We had it. And I was thrown into a wardrobe fitting that same day.

MTV: Before you were cast, did you have a sense of all the craziness that surrounds Rob everywhere he goes?

De Ravin: I suppose I did, but it was not something I thought about until I got to set that first day and was like, “Ooooh, OK.” Probably 90 percent of the film we shot on location, mainly in Manhattan, and having the paparazzi and fans coming to watch, it adds, um, another element. You have to focus much more.

MTV: Was it just nuts?

De Ravin: There were a lot of crazy moments where you’re filming on location and you’re waiting for people to get out of the shot. People don’t want to move. Rob and I would laugh about that. There was a scene where we’re on a date at a carnival, and it was very exposed to media, paparazzi and fans. We were rehearsing, and you become so self-conscious of people watching you, and we both stopped and looked at each other and were like, “Wait, what are we doing?” You’re taken out of your work mentality with hundreds of people watching you when you’re just trying to figure out your scene.

MTV: What was your relationship with Rob like off-camera?

De Ravin: It was so great being able to work with someone you immediately get along with and is incredibly talented and is driven to make the film as good as we can. Having someone you can go and talk with about a scene, and it’s all very casual and easy, that made filming such a delight — having a friendship level and a commitment to the script. The way Rob and I developed our relationship onscreen was very natural, and just seeing what happened with scenes, what happens in the moment.

MTV: But you’re telling me you guys didn’t watch “Twilight” together in your trailer every day?

De Ravin: No! I hadn’t seen the films prior to shooting. They’re great. They’re such a different genre to this film. “Twilight” and “Remember Me” couldn’t be more different. Not so many similarities between Edward Cullen and Tyler.

i don't know about ya'll but i'm gonna DIE when i see this movie!

 Does anyone know Pastiche Pen`s email address? Email me at jaspersdestiny@gmail.com for privacy reasons. She is an affiliate to  a blog I belong to, and like a loser, I have lost it ;)

Gracias, fellow campers!

I have a message from Ranger Jenny!

" Congratulations on being selected as VIP authors for A Different Forest! While you're getting yourselves settled, I have been busy constructing your cabins, but as I'm stuck in the asscrack of Texas, it's taking me longer than I expected. The delay won't be much longer, sit tight, and bunk with some of your fellow VIP'S. Take a look around, and I hope you enjoy it here in the Forest."

DUDE.

I am seriously obsessing over With Teeth by TalulaBlue over on Twilighted. I am such a tweeker over that story...even doing that teeth clicking thing while I wait for another chapter to post. With Teeth, indeed.

Things I love about With Teeth; the condensed version:

A shitload of UST...authentic, beautiful, awkward UST

Fantastic, real dialogue

Amazing descriptive choices for settings and characterization

The heartfail potential is GINORMOUS

There's no thread that I know of to sufficiently freak out on, and I've read the dang fic twice already. If anyone knows of one that I don't, would you fill me in?

Who loves this ditty as much as I do? What story are you freaking out over right now?

and here's some man candy minus aliens in compromising positions (You don't know what I'm talking about? Go lurk around any thread having to do with Greeen Goldfish...I warn you. You may be sorry you looked)

Not terribly original, but GAH. How I love the VF photo shoot.

After some searching I have found a Fan Fiction downloader that is easy to use and is compatible with many FF sites. It works. It's virus free. and it itself is free. I'm not sure if this is old news, but i just wanted to inform you incase you didn't know. If you find this offensive or against your reader laws then be my guest and ignore me, but as their is no law saying downloading work is illegal I shall make it a bit easier for those who don't want to get their lovelies pulled out from under them half way through.

I did NOT make this program. But the URL is posted here:

http://www.filecluster.com/downloads/Fanfiction-Downloader.html

No harm is intended to the author or the reader. Happy camping, and as i like to say it 'Would you like some marshmallows for your camping spot?'. that is all.
