Isn't it ironic?

So I decided to be nice for Valentine's and share a zip of my new LuluSuzu doujinshi I spent too much on via Y!J. I warned not to download if you were underage and that it was smut.

One would think this would be a clue in that this doujinshi did in fact contain.. well smut. However, over on the Geass comm, I got someone asking me if this doujinshi was hard yaoi, as she only likes light shounen ai. ~.~ I almost don't want to share the shounen-ai zips now, because I don't want her downloading. That and she then went and acted like those of us who want smut are crazy which we are, but no crazier than anyone who wants shounen ai

And in the more ironicness..I received my long awaited bonus from my job I quit in September, except it was given to me as AMERICAN EXPRESS GIFT CARDS I was told this was so I could use it in Japan, except 1) No one in Japan takes AE and 2) The cards are only valid in the US. ~.~ They are also not valid for airline tickets or hotel reservations. FUN

So now I am playing which stores that sell things I might actually want take AE. *sighs* I guess this money is not going for any of my hobbies or a vacation.

EDIT: SMJ TAKES AE
I so hope those gift cards work there!!!!!!!

But there is nothing I want at Target ^^;;

I's soooo annoying, because I can't even waste the money on doujinshi or anime items ~.~

Ohhh, good luck with SMJ! I hope you can get good use out of your AMEX gift cards.

Daniel's bank switched from Mastercard to American Express for their credit cards, so it's been a *lot* of fun finding out which places take American Express. :p

Thanks me too. I am hoping that by invalid at telecom they don't mean anywhere on line cause that would just suck too bad, since there is very little I want off-line. I admit, since I hated my job, I want to get to spend this money on a few fun things I want, and not just things I don't.

hmmmmm I wonder if my gym takes AE

I guess I could get the new video iPod I've been wanting... *sighs*

I much prefer Visa and Mastercard or even Discover. You can always apply elsewhere for another card, I am thinking of getting another Visa, though Kennis will kill me. lol

I stay on the Geass comm cause 1) Scans, people cans nice things there, 2) I suck at making icons, and a lot of people there have talent, I also saw a color bar I really wanted.. 3) post episode 15 GG switched to a new encoding and I am on a Mac and one of the members there kindly puts up downloads of both an Avi as well as other downloads. I personally really appreciate this. and 4) I Need to find a way to get those handmade Geass plushies! O_O

Actually, despite people posting things like "Why do people hate Suzaku" and "What is your favorite pairing", it's surprisingly not that Wanky. The pairing discussion actually went really well with no one saying "OMG, you like !?!?!?!?" Though Geass fans are generally squicked by incest which is sad, cause Princess Ryoma/Euphie. The Suzaku thread just makes me seethe like the Wikipedia which I am SO editing because I really don't think he is a hypocrite. I think expecting someone under 10 to make no mistakes and have no regrets is ridiculous. But then I positively adore Suzaku and love my LuluSzu (and lloydSuzu and OrangeSuzu and well every cast member x Suzu XD;) Originally, I hated Nina, but she redeemed herself in my mind because she is an enormous pervert! lol

I try to be honest when I can be lol And this is my own LJ, so...

They are very neurotic about tagging. They want every post tagged. And I guess I would rather see people get asked to say where scans were from, than to see otherwise. In a way, you have to be super strict about those sorts of things are people will not listen.

I mean the Geass comm is not perfect, and idiots bug me everywhere, but I really do like Geass, and it was nice to have 35 people thank me for sharing a doujinshi XD;

LJ is weird sometimes. But I do like it, the whole commenting thing works better for me than other types of blogs and I'm too lazy and have no graphic design skills in terms of making layouts XD;

It was a lovely ego boost and I have a few more scans to share now XD;;

I try to generally be a positive person, so I mostly chalk it up to the person running it being young. At least it seems like most of the people there when they gave their ages seemed young. lol Or maybe I am just old :P
