Blessed Relief (pun intended)

No, this isn't about Batman. It's about something more important. While movies and entertainment monopolize a good deal of my time, I am working in the field of science, and my respect for it and the people in it does occasionally trump my obsession with everything pop culture related to [insert title here] flavor of the week.

( It's evolution, baby )

Man, this blows. I hate when people get themselves into a snit over things that aren't comparable. Do I like apples or oranges? Fact or faith? Get a clue people. The reason liberals come off as snobs is because we insist there's a difference, I'm almost positive that's the problem. It seems prissy, priggy nit-picking to say you can't measure God against Darwin, but they sure don't match up in my book. For one, I like the people who follow Darwin a lot better these days...

From one rant to another

( Back to obsessions we go, then... )

And now for something completely different

Don't read this story. Don't do it. It will hurt. Your brain will confuse tenses, punctuation, and grammar just to make sense of what the sentences describe and from there, you're in for a world of hurt.

I'm trying something a little different since joining the GAFF forums (that's God-Awful Fan-Fiction). I'm still going to write to the author and inform her that she's got all the talent of a two-year old on steroids using a broken keyboard plugged into a toaster, but from now on, I will leave only snarky and mean comments in my LJ.

Or link to them at the boards, if I'm feeling lazy: Why does it hurt?

EDITED TO ADD: My review on ff.net.
If I left you a review that ONLY discussed your flagrant abuse of the English language, I would be writing until Labor Day. Not only have you gotten the 'your' wrong in your title, you continue to eschew common practices in writing (such as correct punctuation, spelling, grammar, and word choice) throughout this travesty of a story.

And do not think that the unfortunate experience stops there. If someone kindly, masochistically translated this story into working, functional English, it would still have all the plot of a cereal box cartoon, with none of the enjoyment or RDA fibre-y goodness. 'Blayde'? Please. Your butchery of the canon characters is tantamount to fandom rape, and your original characters pontificate like bad soap opera stars (worse, I'd wager). Your action makes no sense (why shoot a vampire to make sure it's dead when they flash-burn as they die?); your original character is a Mary Sue; and the O, M, and G, 'you are sooooo funny' "Twin "blaydes"!" line makes my eyes bleed as surely as the vampire whose torture starts the pain for us all. Perhaps he was being made to read other fanfiction you've written, poor blighter.

And Ken's reaction:
Ken: "ultraviolent light???" What, was it running on WWF batteries?
