Alright, confess odd things.

For example, I'm jealous to my big brother becuase he discovered The Smiths first. Dammit, now I can't have a crush for Morrisey without feeling weird about it.

I understand it, but bondage gear has always been a turn off for me.

A lot of that goes way too far in my opinion. I was referring more to the mindset.

I will say a well done outfit in that vein is quite enjoyable, though.

Bondage outfits = fun.
Bondage variations on the hot secretary (or anyone prim and proper wearing stockings) = take me now.

Confession: I'm a sucker for "innocent with a flirty side".

INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.

I have a hot librarian outfit, so that's close.

I also own way too many pairs of stockings, as mentioned earlier.

I assume you're talking about Tofu, Kink. Tzetze: must investigate further.

I freaking hate when celery turns up in my salad unexpectedly. Tuna salad, chicken salad, Norseman's Lodge in Colman, I'm looking at you. >:[

I sorta want to make a WMG thread about how Blammy is Rorschach just to see if she'll cosplay as him.

B movie on the floor this morning, blue text on the screen. These missing entries are afraid of me. I have seen their true examples. The wiki pages are extended submissions and the submissions are drowning ‘’How Did We Miss This One?’’ and when all the tropes are finally submitted, all the red text will be gone. The accumulated tropers will work their Wiki Magic and all the missing entries will look up and shout “Don’t launch us!” ….and I’ll whisper “no”.

List of things that make me needlessly defensive:

There's undoubtedly more as well as a list of things that make me needlessly offensive, but they haven't been triggered yet or I can't remember them. The cause is the idea that the particular work is treated as So Bad It's Horrible when I happen to actually like it, and it depends on the rhetoric due to my Literal-Minded nature.

I am an elitist. I believe society and positions should be based on merit, not being able to bullshit your way out of a corner, or memorizing useless facts, or being somewhere longer than someone else.

...

As such, it was probably a mistake to join the Army.

I love Card Captor Sakura! Great anime, wait you talking about the infra-par english dub? Go die in a fire.

I believe everyone should be equal.

I probably do. If you are referring to a more specific "equal" such as everyone having an equal say, or everyone having equal authority, I am fine with that. Sounds nice. My mind just immediately jumped to EVERYBODY IS EQUAL IN ALL WAYS, 1984, NEWSPEAK, BIG BROTHER and other such scenarios.

I know my ideal of equality is represented mostly by totalitarian dystopias. But an ideal is something almost unattainable. As Ideals are ideals, not real. Duh.

"I prefer a society where everybody has an equal chance to succeed. Forcing everybody to be equal is Nightmare Fuel."

Barely anyone besides extremists actually believe in the latter. The former is what socialists, anarchists, and related do aim for.

Not everyone was equal in 1984. It was actually something of a caste system with three different social tiers, lower-class, middle-class, and upper-class. I can’t remember if it was possible to get into a different tier. Probably not, considering how crazy ordered the whole thing was. People also could make more or less money in each tier.

IIRC it's a completely rigid class system; if you're born into the middle class you have to serve the outer Party or they just have you unpersoned, and the Proles are so utterly controlled by the Ministry of Truth that they aren't even capable of aspiring to a higher class.

Personally I see equality as a means to an end (the reduction of discontent in the world and the spreading of happiness), not an end of itself. Very few people want total, literal equality, and most would agree that a homogenous society would be dull and oppressive.
