Discussion History MoralEventHorizon / FanWorks

[reply removed]

@Lobster999 You say it \\\"suggests\\\" that I haven\\\'t changed a bit. That doesn\\\'t necessarily mean that I actually haven\\\'t. I\\\'m not really as obsessive as I was a couple of years ago. To say that Furrball doesn\\\'t really like Fifi is a slight misconception. In \\\"Aroma Amore\\\", it\\\'s fairly clear that Furrball\\\'s feelings for her were somewhat real, regarding his first reaction toward her even before he knew she was a skunk and how sorry he felt for her when he painted over that white stripe on his back. So what? Furrball runs away when he finds out that Fifi\\\'s a skunk. That doesn\\\'t necessarily mean that he doesn\\\'t like her. Regarding how Penelope actually likes Pepe but can\\\'t stand his stink, it\\\'s quite safe to assume that Furrball was in the same position. And another thing: while the things that Furrball did in those fanworks is reason enough to get away from Fifi, it\\\'s downright hypocritical, as Furrball did feel pity for Fifi after driving her away in \\\"Aroma Amore\\\", but in those fanworks, he felt no pity at all, which could almost suggest that the people who made those fanworks are completely unsympathetic hypocrites in their own right. And one more thing: Fifi is not in the wrong. I think what I said earlier about how Penelope likes Pepe but can\\\'t stand his smell still applies to this one as well. And don\\\'t try anything like \\\"Furrball doesn\\\'t like Fifi entirely because she\\\'s a skunk\\\". Sure, in \\\"Aroma Amore\\\", he holds up a sign that says \\\"Skunk!\\\" once he finds out that she\\\'s a skunk, so what? Being that Penelope\\\'s one hundred percent aware that Pepe\\\'s a skunk and just doesn\\\'t like his smell, I\\\'m pretty sure that Furrball holding up that \\\"Skunk!\\\" sign was just an understatement, so I still stand by my (somewhat correct) theory that Furrball just doesn\\\'t like Fifi\\\'s smell. So technically, you might say that Furrball\\\'s actually in the wrong, wanting to get away from Fifi just because of her natural odor. Has that ever occurred to you?

I don\\\'t know if I would think the same thing, but I\\\'m sure I could write a story where any of the characters work something out.

Actually, when you think about it, a similar scenario happened in Disney\\\'s \\\"The Sword In The Stone\\\" where Wart got changed into a squirrel and got relentlessly pursued by a female squirrel, and then, when Wart got changed back into a human, the female squirrel was heartbroken. It\\\'s pretty much the same reaction that Fifi had when Furrball painted over that white stripe that he got on his back, and don\\\'t try anything like \\\"Well, that\\\'s different: the squirrel scene was sympathetic, the Fifi scene was melodramatic\\\" because it isn\\\'t different at all. Melodramatic is executed in a way that is not believable, whereas sympathetic is more believable. Both scenes are believable. So, therefore, Fifi IS a sympathetic character, if not more than Pepe. Should you ask any serious fan of Tiny Toons and \\\"The Sword In The Stone\\\", a lot of them may tell you that they feel sorry for Fifi and the squirrel.

Oh, and you know what?: I don\\\'t even care what you say about me nor what you say about Fifi, because we are what we are. Yes, I am a fan of Fifi La Fume, and I do have some positive points about me as well. And you are an unforgiving negativity theorist. That\\\'s what you are. I\\\'ve asked you a couple of times to forgive me for the inconveniences that I\\\'ve caused for you and you never said that you forgive me. As a devout Christian, I should point out that God wants us to forgive each other, even if we do the same kind of things over and over again, and if we ask God to forgive us, then He will, no matter what. Now before you start calling me a hypocrite, I think that there are certain points in life when we have to accept some people for what they are. I can accept you for what you are if you can accept me for what I am. I\\\'m not saying I will accept everybody for what they are, because there are some people with irredeemable qualities, but I\\\'m sure that you\\\'re not really that bad a person, so I hope that at some point in time we can get on good terms and put this discussion behind us. I hope my words got through to you.
