Title: What's this for?
Post by: Lemon on May 29, 2013, 10:42:02 pm
Just a quick note to explain.

I just sent a rejection letter to about a dozen people, and I wanted to make sure that they had a place to share their content if they wished, since in every case it wasn't that there was nothing worth reading there, it's just that, for one reason or another, it didn't feel like something people were excited to read.

But, it might still be worth looking through and talking about here.

I will henceforth refer to all amateur readings at The F Minus.

Yes, that includes mine.

Question here, I sent in 3 different submissions and got a rejection letter, does that mean that all three were rejected? If that's not the case, which one (or ones) didn't make the cut?

Lemon, you've got Maradona on both lists. I'm definitely not going to read it, but I will be making a thread later. The material is gold, pity it's copyright protected.

Oh, to clarify:

I meant that if you wanted to, you could share your document in a thread for other people to read, as in, you know, with their eyes. I wasn't actually trying to encourage an F Plus Pro-Am.

Unless you really feel motivated to.

It's pretty wonderful, I can tell you that much. I don't want to spoil anything, because there's a lot of wonderful stuff in here, but the doc contains the following phrase:

"A prayer to St. Michael To remove a monster cock Ghost"

You'd think Gabriel would be a more appropriate Christian entity to ask for intercession when you've got an monster cock ghost, since he's the angel of mercy.

I got a question: does "in the hopper" mean content that is going to be read, or is it content that has yet to be evaluated and accepted or rejected?

If it's the former, I'm surprised that the pony nazi content is slated to be read. Last I heard, the content was more infuriating than it was funny.

As the resident Catholic, I can testify that if you have gastroenteritis, a simple prayer of "OH GOD MAKE IT STOP OR KILL ME NOW" is standard.  You'll probably be on your knees in front of the throne to begin with.

And yeah, everyone should be looking forward to that doc.  I helped fill in a little but it's 80% Al finding amazing stuff.

I really like that there's an ordered section of tags and then stuff like "Unicorn Sex" and "Pony Nazis Question Mark".

So, Gabriel. Angel of mercy and angel of death. One-stop shopping.

On a related note, somebody please record and post something. Some of us are withering away like parched plants in a blazing dry heat waiting for the new episode.

"The Hopper" means any content which has been submitted and has been neither recorded nor rejected. Think of it as The Maybe Pile.

I know we have no way of knowing whether the content itself is good, but I have to say that seeing the possibility of another Is It Normal? episode excites me.  And seeing three documents on something called "Loki Wives" confuses me.

"Godspouses". They're married to Loki (and it is almost always Loki, and it's almost always Tom-Hiddleston-as-Loki-in-those-superhero-movies) on the astral plane.

Oh dear.

The root of the problem came out during a discussion with Jolene the other night, and was echoed by a recent comment someone else posted to my blog: entitlement. Too many people among the newest crop of would-be godspouses and spirit workers apparently feel somehow entitled to not only have the help and guidance of those who have been on this path for years, but to have it now, on demand, when they are ready and not when the other person is ready to help them (assuming there is such a time; please see further below for more on this). Believe me, I have been on the other end of this scenario, back when I was a baby godspouse myself; not only did I feel entitled to the advice and assistance of my elders, and not only did I actively pursue the same by (in a couple of instances) all but shoving my newfound status in their faces, but I got downright sulky and resentful when I was occasionally rebuffed. Looking back now, I am mortified by my own behavior. I can only hope the current aspirants can eventually grow beyond this attitude as well and be similarly ashamed someday, yet somehow I doubt that will happen, since our (i.e. American/Western European) culture as a whole also seems to have embraced wholeheartedly the doctrine of entitlement in general.

People who literally think gods are in love with them tend to be entitled?  How could that possibly happen?!

What makes Tom Hiddleston so sexy? I don't know, man. Let's ask some teenage girls!

Since I'm not allowed in all-girls school anymore, let's peek at the tumblrs!

Damn you Hiddleston! You classy, sophisticated, well spoken, handsome and charming bastard!
source (http://hannahmariehiddles.tumblr.com/post/31679098836/so-in-may-ill-be-20-years-old-it-kind-of-makes)

So I am in love with Tom Hiddleston, obviously, and I just realized…

this guy is another Gene Kelly.

He’s a Cary Grant.

He’s super-classy and intelligent and hilaaaaaaaaaarious and just, just—

THIS MAN.

WE HAVE TO KEEP THIS MAN.

He’s a TREASURE.

Ugh. WHY SO PRETTY TOM HIDDLESTON?!?!?!? #ThePretty #ItSlaysMe
source (http://impetusofadream.tumblr.com/post/19620494954/aint-no-short-ass-gods-around-here-ugh-why-so)

Well, geez. The appearances of Tom Hiddleston just blew these girls away and rob them of their words. It's like Tumblr fangirls can only communicate with gifs and memes! We must go beyond Tumblr.

I can’t think because I’ve literally spent the last two minutes staring at a gif of him laughing that my friend sent because I “needed to see the weird thing he does with his tongue.”
Perfect. Here are some reasons why Tom Hiddleston is the hottest among Avengers actors (http://hellogiggles.com/the-case-for-tom-hiddleston).

He's playing an evil dude who has long, black hair. That's goth-attractive as fuck. These are the type of girls who, if you point at someone like young Bard Pitt, will scoff and say they're not into the whole "Hollywood pretty boy" look.

I think Tom Hiddleston is hot, but he just falls into one of the guy-types I like.  He seems like a fairly good guy too, which helps.  I wouldn't hit that, though, I don't wanna get knocked up with a six-legged horse.
