GOTH ROCK RULZ

For me, this was just a regular Monday night, browsing my f-list on LJ. Right? WRONG. I stumbled across this post of lady_irena. So, basically:

4/5 of now-on-hiatus Versailles have started a brand-new band, Jupiter, with some vocalist called Zin.

BLOODY. HELL.



Is this just some prank for April Fool's? I know it's not, but still . . . I can't wrap my brain around this. I'm happy that Hizaki, Teru, Yuki, and Masashi are sticking together moving forward, but still . . . ZOMG I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR THIS. BLOODY HELL!

Apparently, the latest insult against dead literary giants that can't defend their own works anymore is. . . revamping classics so they read like Fifty Shades of Grey.

Yeah, you read that right.

And I thought Pride and Prejudice and Zombies was infuriating. That's got NOTHING on this. I'm not sure whether to shoot myself or go on a killing spree.

WRITE YOU OWN FREAKING BOOKS YOU LAZY, GREEDY, PATHETIC PERVERTS.

Or just stick to fanfiction, at the very least. Do NOT tamper with the original work, written in blood and sweat and tears, of writers to whom you can't even begin to compare. Show some respect, even if you have no restraint or dignity.

Sorry if you can't hear me over my screams of "SACRILEGE!" Jane Austen is my hero, and has been for years, and I can't stand it when people trample her work because they're too stupid or too lazy to appreciate its wit and subtlety. I've just been reading a compiled work of her letters, and feeling more in awe of her than ever.

I shall try to say something more upbeat and happy.

Is it confirmed that Versailles (Philharmonic Quintet) is disbanding? I need more bad fandom news; I really do.

Hello all, from my friend's mac! (It's a Macbook Air. Don't laugh, fellow Gackt fans. Don't laugh.) I'm at her house with my brother and some other friends, and we're playing Wii bowling. (Or, at least, I was, until I ducked in to check up and see what's been happening while I was out.)

Recently, my friend told me that there were no boys in real life to compare with cute anime boys.

Oh, really?

( Well, in that case . . . )
