Waiting For Tomorrow

I could understand it if we were shown some lasting bitterness between the parents and the grandfather. Anger's fine, and it's happened often enough before. But in such cases, the most normal reaction seems to be to go to the funeral anyway and very pointedly not care in person. But what made this truly strange was that the news elicited no response at all. Come on guys, dad's dead: show me something. Grief, rage, joy, whimsy ... whatever. But if you want me to believe in you as capably-written characters, don't just sit in front of the TV shovelling food into your blank faces. |

*Pretends to wipe eyes* Honestly that Sue's tragic backstory is making me want to cry from it's sheer annoyingness. She keeps getting more to wangst about. Oh and the parents thing? Laughable. Even children who are estranged often feel sad upon hearing of thier parent's death. And if their child was so close to the Grandfather then why exactly were the parents not? Stupid Suethor forgetting logic and not resaerching actully situations about depression, loss ect. It is honestly getting harder to feel sorry for this Sue in any way whatsoever. Great MST though, I take it the mini-Aragog turned up in the theatre? |

Hard. Especially if you are a teenager. I'm sure you know they all think they know everything and we don't have a clue.
I think Krillball suffers from the same problem that Angey does. It seems that when Angey comes across a new fandom she likes, she adds that to her stories--regardless of how it will mesh with the original fandom. For example, in An Elf's Love, we believe she read/saw Eragon and then suddenly a telepathic dragon shows up in Middle-earth despite the fact that dragons are evil and the last one was killed in The Hobbit. I think that Krillball reads or hears about new psychological problems and gives them to Sam to make her "sympathetic".
I agree. My family is somewhat estranged from many of my grandfather's family members. However, when my grandmother died this past May, some came to the wake while others sent flowers. They acknowledged her death in some way. I also read a lot of Dear Abby (you can get some great story ideas off there--it's like my teacher's suggestion to go to an AA meeting only feeling less intrusive on someone's privacy) and a lot do write about estranged parents. But Siany was right with: "Even children who are estranged often feel sad upon hearing of thier parent's death" and Math's: "Come on guys, dad's dead: show me something. Grief, rage, joy, whimsy ... whatever" They often say they feel something. This is one of the reasons why I chose to MST this story beyond the Elrond's a pedophile! plot line. Anyway:
Yeah. I realized sometime after I MST-ed "Sneaky SLytherins" that sinsrfun10 created a mini-Aragog. So I wrote this that the spider's been hanging out in the shadows of the theater. |

Thanks! And the innuendos were ten times bad when I posted this last night as I was watching Lolita at the time. |

Wait, if she had an easily breakable mirror in her room, why on Arda did she slit her wrists with a hairbrush? |

True, if she could punch a mirror, kinda believable, why use a hairbrush, unbelievable? |

I don't think Krillball considered this until she thought, "Wouldn't it be kewl and dramatic if Sam punched a mirror?" |

No - make her stop!
News to me! Though even if the spelling was acceptable, the constant background hum of homonym abuse would still be setting my teeth on edge.
Well, there must be a few psychological conditions she hasn't picked up yet ...
Yeah. So's my head. |

I think the fact that while she uses Spell Check, it only checks to make sure you spelled the word right, not that you used it right. So "brake" is correctly spelled, but she really means "break." |
