Anything called a "reboot" should require at least one character to put on boots. Twice.

After hearing all this Facebook uproar, I went and checked my "Other" inbox to see all the messages I'd been missing out on, and there was only one.  It reads as follows:

I was impressed when i saw your profile today on Facebook and I will like to established a long lasting relationship , I'm new to these online dating world and was surfing around to find a profile that will suit what I'm looking for on here . I came across your profile and Drop by with a Yellow Rose that Signify friendship, I hope you accept my Rose if YES get back to me and tell me more about yourself and I will get back and do the same, i look forward to read from you, i wish to read from you soon , Hugs ,

...I'd totally ignore it if it wasn't the best offer I've gotten this year.  I, too, will like to established a long lasting relationship!  I'm not sure where this Yellow Rose is, though.  Is it metaphorical?  Or do I actually get a rose?  This is important; I want my damn rose.

Also, this guy I used to work with wrote this editorial [that's mainly about Spiderman toward the end, so I kind of skimmed that part -- it might contain spoilers, I don't know] that perfectly sums up how I felt about Prometheus and especially Snow White and the Huntsman.  I was counting the demographics that were being pandered to when I should have been seeing more of Chris Hemsworth shirtless immersed in the story.

And I meant to mention this a lot sooner, and I'm aware of the inherent hypocrisy, given my chosen fandoms, but: a reboot of the Spiderman reboot?  Really?  Really?  Can we all just look up "reboot" in the dictionary, because we keep using that word, and I don't think it means what we think it means.  It's not just casting different actors in the same parts.  It's like we've all decided "remake" is a dirty word, but "reboot," hey, if it's good enough for my operating system, it's good enough for my movies.  Ah, well, it could be worse -- it could be a "re-imagining."

Got some fun ones this time, though of course friggin' medical kink (one of my few squicks) is in a corner square.  Ah, well, not like I'm going to go for a blackout anyway.  I think last year I managed a grand total of 3 fills.  :oP  Hopefully this will give me some inspiration, though.

FYI, I AM still writing Pinto fic, I've just been working (or trying to work) on outside projects that are... not going as well as the fic.
