  1. If stray cats were hot girls, my life would be a harem anime.

      You accidentally stroke a belly

      “BAKA!” *four sets of claws sink in.

      There's a few animes like that. One also has a grandiose swordswoman adorably scared of lightning that the protagonist always thought was a man. 

    4. Ghost-of-a-Chance
  2. If you have Netflix and you’re looking for a fun animated series to watch, I’d like to recommend Glitch Techs. The main characters are fun and likable (Miko’s way of speaking reminds me a lot of Star Butterfly’s), and the show is full of amusing video game references that even non-fanatics like me get.

  3. Is it weird that I know exactly which Encanto character each of my cats would be? The hefty girl would be Luisa, the little girl who notices everything would be Dolores, and the boy who's always hiding would be Bruno.

  4. It looks like I’m actually going to finish my Christmas story “Comfort and Joy” before Christmas. Of course, I originally planned to have it finished before LAST Christmas, but you know...

      Aw, delay due to standards of excellence?  :)

      She’s with Comfort now? Geesh, that Joy really does get around! I mean, first she’s with Fear, then Anger…

      Omigosh! She’s becoming a Sith! ;)

      Don’t worry, both Hate and Suffering won’t join Riley’s cast of emotions until she gets to high school. :)

  5. It’s been a long while since I’ve had a haircut. I’m starting to look like Doc Brown from Back to the Future. Maybe that’s why I’m thinking four-dimensionally. :)

      Tell me about it. I’m starting to look like Cousin It.

      I’ve mostly been trimming my own hair, bit by bit and occasionaly buzzing it all off, for over 15 years. In other words, I don’t care how awful it looks because it distracts from my face, my body, my personality, etc. ;)

      There has been a distinct advantage in my decision (prompted by an allergy to hair dye) to let my grey hair fly proudly. :lol: 

  6. Last night, I was adding "heavy cream" to my grocery list, and the two words my phone suggested after "heavy" were "breasts" and "balls." Phone, you know me far too well.

    1. Desiderius Price

      Desiderius Price

      “Phone, where have you been?  Dare I want to know?”

    2. FairySlayer

      FairySlayer

      If you were British and were adding “double cream” it would have been even wose. ;)

  7. Lately, I’ve seen a lot of people (mostly on TV shows) misusing the expression “Divide and conquer.” This phrase does NOT mean “Split up to tackle separate tasks.” It means “Separate your enemies from one another so you can more easily overpower them.”

  8. Lately, whenever I try to look at the reviews of any of my stories, my browser has been giving me the “Your connection is not private. Attackers might be trying to steal your information from cartoon.adult-fanfiction.org (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards).” Is this happening to anyone else?

      We had some expired SSL cert duplicates, I’ve cleaned it up and things should resolve themselves over the next couple of days.

  9. Latest sign that I’m too often using my phone to write porn: The first suggestion after I type “big” is “melons.”

      Two from yesterday:

      After “thoroughly,” the phone suggested “lubed.”

      It tried to turn “steel-toed boots” into “steel-like hardness.”

  10. Made a weird discovery today: Someone has translated the first chapter of my SVTFOE fic “Star’s Crossed Lovers” into Spanish and posted it on Wattpad. My feeling of flattery is somewhat dampened by the fact that the translator neither asked my permission nor included my name with the post (although he/she does not claim to be the author).

      GeorgeGlass

      Thanks for the input and sympathy, all. I decided to let the translator know that I am OK with the posting if he or she adds my name to the title or summary, but if that doesn’t happen within the next week, I’ll report the story for violating Wattpad’s community guidelines.

    3. GeorgeGlass

      GeorgeGlass

      Well, the translator has already added my name to the title and the summary and apologized for translating the chapter without asking my permission. I am satisfied, and I have given my permission to translate the rest of the story.

  11. More of George’s Phone Follies: A while back, I had to delete my phone’s entire custom dictionary because every time I began typing a word that began with the letter F, it wouldn’t stop suggesting “fuckfuckfuckityfuck” (which I used ONCE in a chapter of “Country Summer”).

  12. My The Loud House fanfic “Whoops” surpassed 30,000 hits yesterday, which is more than double the number for any other fanfic I’ve ever written (and a lot of those have been posted for years). Not sure why this one is so popular, but I ain’t complainin’.

  13. My mom died this week. She had been on a downward spiral since my dad died a couple of months ago; she missed him terribly, and I think it was more than her limited mental resources (she had multi-infarct dementia) could handle. But she told me years ago that she had done everything really important that she wanted to do in her life, so whenever death came, she would be all right with it. Knowing that makes me all right with it, too.

      I am so very sorry, George. You are never truly prepared to lose a parent. :hug:

      Damn, I’m really sorry to hear that.

  14. My Scrabble app does not recognize “jahoobs” as a word. Those 88 points were rightfully mine.

      I’d have given you that one, as long as I get “fucknugget.”

      Probably some kind of anti jargon or profanity filter at work.

  15. My story “The Cartooniverse Mother-Daughter Crossover Sextacular” references 75 different cartoons from every era. My thought this morning: “It’s like I was trying to ruin as many childhoods as possible.”

      Ah, mood. In my experience crossover stories are like black holes, once they get big enough they start pulling in other stuff under their own power.

  16. My wife euphemistically refers to “Mia: Confessions of a Dickgirl” as my “detective story” because it’s about someone with a private dick.

      @GeorgeGlass A shame! It’s a classic :p

      Des – Reminds me I haven’t written nasty dick gore in years and years, must do it again sometimes.

  17. Seems I spoke too soon about “Comfort and Joy”; chapter 4 needs a lot of rehab. Maybe by New Year’s...

    1. FairySlayer

      FairySlayer

      They partied too hard and need a week to recover? ;) Seriously, best of luck with the holiday tale.

    2. GeorgeGlass

      GeorgeGlass

      No – I needed to make them party harder. And I am. :)

  18. So I’m wondering: When I finish my She-Ra and the Princesses of Power fanfic (God help me), should I request a new category for it, or should I post it with the stories from the old She-Ra show? (Last post there was in 2012.)

    1. JayDee

      JayDee

      Thundercats only has the one category for all the series’ so it looks like there’s some precedent for sticking new series in with 80s series! I guess it’ll take a mod to give the decision :)

    2. GeorgeGlass

      GeorgeGlass

      I suppose it would make sense to put it in the existing She-Ra category, as it’s just labeled “She-Ra” and doesn’t include the “Princess of Power” subtitle that would make it specific to the 80s series. 

    3. BronxWench

      BronxWench

      I think sticking with the original She-Ra category is certainly the quickest solution.

  19. So my dad died recently. He was very old, and was refusing treatment because he was tired of how debilitated he had become, so I’m at peace with it. He had a good life. But this morning, I had my first “I have to remember to tell him about...oh, wait, I can’t” moment, and that made me a little sad.

      I’m sorry for your loss. My condolences.

      Sad to hear that your father is gone. Peace be with you always.

    4. FairySlayer

      FairySlayer

      Oh crud, I’m so sorry. :hug:   I get that feeling a lot for a super tech-savvy old friend who passed away just as Wikipedia and YouTube were becoming real things, so often while watching or reading about tech stuff I think of how much he’d have loved all of it. The fact that I get to think about him at random once in a while like that makes me happy, and it will be the same for you. Best wishes to you and the family.

  20. Spent 45 minutes hanging out under a bridge today. Note to self: Check the friggin’ forecast before you decide to take your bike to work.

      I literally clicked it for the billy goats and now I feel like I have been the victim of a troll!

      So that’s actually worked out ok. But, honestly, the next user along will be bigger and meatier than me and make a much better…

    3. FairySlayer

      FairySlayer

      Just be glad the Troll Trace guy wasn’t there for you. ;)

    4. GeorgeGlass

      As I was crouching under the bridge – where at least a little of the rain was still able to reach me – I thought, “If a billy goat comes along, I’m frickin’ eating it.”

  21. The definition of irony is wanting to scream at your cats, “Just live in fucking harmony goddamn it!”

  22. The upside of being an unpublished SFF novelist is that you have tons of made-up names to use as website passwords. :)

  23. The video system that the Chinese government uses for mass surveillance of its citizens is called Skynet. I am not making this up.

    1. JayDee

      JayDee

      I bet the person who named it knew exactly what they were referencing.

  24. The wife and I have been taking turns being sick since Thanksgiving weekend. I think we’re finally both past it. But at least I managed to make an awesome Christmas dinner (including my first baked Alaska).

    1. Desiderius Price

      Hope you’re past it, and it stays away, whatever the illness is.
