That's really really interesting!
But I'm sure you want to sticky this topic
Or making a website page with your naughty and professional graphic because this forum is a second home for me

Thanks for the suggestions, guys, but... it's right in the main post:

Please keep any discussion of what you'd like to see in the discussion thread.

I'm going to be posting any further installations in this thread, and anyone else's articles or things I've missed are welcome as well.

For those who are interested in reading the whole of Chapter THREEEEEE!, I have compiled it together, its an epic tale of love, hate and poo flinging monkeys.

Corpsegoddess recently improved her Touga based Utena AMV

*sighs* Okay, I have all the links collected from the last two weeks at least... sorry guys, been a hectic time for me. I'll get the new edition of the vIRGin posted up either Monday morning or in the wee hours of Tuesday when I get home from work.

Forgive me! Too much stuff going on.

Edition #2 - May 7, 2007 - May 20, 2007



Whew! I know, I'm late, but you'll have to forgive me. I did go back through the last two weeks and collect up everything I thought notable, so here it is! This isn't in any sort of chronological order or anything. Deal.

Clarice has managed to make me cry my eyes out in pain with the first commercial she posted in this thread, which is ostensibly about a rival for movie!Akio but instead features dancing so bad that I had to iron my face out afterwards because it was all squinched up in mortifying embarassment. By the way, she'll be gone for a while because she won't have internet in her new place, so feel free to post your own embarrassing or funny commercials. Damn Kiwis. Emiemipoemi has much sexier news; her local theatre is putting on the theatre version of the Rocky Horror Picture Show! Anyone who's in the area should check it out and give them a big hand (or maybe tear off a corset or two, all in fun). And speaking of hot things, Gio has thanked us all for our donations to her surgery/plane ride fund by giving us hothot toaster pastry action. Everybody has so far agreed that she's sex in one of those hippie kerchief things and it was totally worth it for the slightly naughty picture. (I kid... I really want to thank you all for the help you gave her. Much love, seriously. )

Religious/psychic news! We've got a spoon bender in our midst! Alexandra, why don't you hold sessions and show us all how? Or you can chart your stars here! These are things Jerry Falwell would disapprove of, but he's dead and we've got a thread about it, including a video about why we're all going to burn in hell, by the Westboro Baptist Church. I've never laughed so hard in my life. Also, Hinotori, where were you? Our Notable Death Fairy didn't notify us! What do we pay you for anyway?

On the art front, we've got emiemipoemi, dollface, Maarika, and beautifulpanther posting their art here for us to drool over. Also on the art front, Stormcrow has shared his secret recipe for strata! Yes, food is art. Don't argue with me until you've had a good shiraz and a bitter dark chocolate. And while you think about that, take a look at some of this beautiful scenery, or perhaps watch Christopher Walken dance like a god. They're both totally worth it. Thanks, hya!

Or, if you're the self-absorbed type (and we know we all are ) why not tell us all about your horrible deformities (I kid, I kid)? Or find out whether you're a hipster? Or maybe even find out your D&D alignment? Or tell us about your name! Maybe buy a ring? Or, you can go gawk at the n00bs who've just watched SKU and don't know what's going on and look down on them. Cause, y'know, that's what you do when you know more than other people, am i rite? Oh, is that just me, then?

On a more serious note, the forum's had it's first banning, so there's been all kinds of drama. BioKraze and I are in negotiations, so let's all just forget about this one for a while. Any questions, go here and read up first, then please ask me privately.

For SKU-related stuff, we've got a bunch of fanfics from beautifulpanther to start it all off. Damn! I wish I was half that prolific. She even found time for a poem! And art, in the art thread, along with a comic from Maarika, a ton of hot fanart from morosemocha, and allegoriest's Anthy fanart. Sweet! allegoriest also colored some more production sketches, and they're in the gallery thread with Gio's updates. You know, I'm actually working on that too... just very, very slowly.

alexielnet posted a preview of her new site layout, and I think you should all go and see because it's pretty damn awesome. On the side of evil and the forces of darkness, Tamago and hya had a competition as to who could make the Kaoru twins look ugly, spawning this horrible abomination. Maybe someone should caption those? I'll have to ask if it's allowed in the caption thread, which is still going... since near the beginning of the forum. *snif snif* I feel so sentimental. I hate that! To wash out my brain, I had to watch Corpsegoddess's fixed Sexy Back video, starring our (my!) favorite redhead. And then I had some time over a discussion of Akio and lies, and it was fantastic. Wow. My libido needs to cool it, I think. And the best way is to douse it with funny, like the Ursula's Kiss dub info/fanfic, or the Sims pillowDuels with the bonus story starring me me me! Well, and other people. They're not as important. Then check out the dueling thread, where I've taken on the mantle of Ends of the Poptart, and read over Rainbow's fanfic!

It hasn't been as great a couple of weeks for you guys, I think. mocha got fired (in my opinion, unfairly), and Frosty ended up having to kill a kitty. SexingTouga is moving and won't have internet, just like Clarice, and KTK's hard drive blew a gasket and she can't get online. So naturally, I responded to all of this bad news by posting a thread about suicide. Nothing like bad news to follow up bad news, right? But as usual, lots of intelligent discussion, lots of personal experiences, and lots of support. But Sevelle apparently prefers to look at Tom Ford pictures instead, and while the guy's not my type, I don't blame Sevelle at all. If that's not your style, maybe Gio's brother is. He's clearly a pimp. Or there's always anime characters to fantasize about, and Corpsegoddess's new tattoo to admire. Shattered has taken to baiting people on Craigslist with his sexy bum, and morosemocha's given us the unsexy side of porn with her link to Confessions of a Porn Clerk. This reminded me of some rants I was reading at the time I first saw that blog, and I found that they weren't on the net anymore. So I posted them! Those rants make about as much sense as our One Word Story threads (archive here), of which we have started Chapter Four!

And, last but not least, we have some forum admin news. I care about you guys, so I've actually done some adminning-- trying to find out how you feel about privacy concerns with IFD, and making satyreyes into a mod so that there's someone you can get help from while Gio and I are away. I have to say once again that this is probably the awesomest forum I've ever seen, and I'm glad, every day, when I log on. I wouldn't want you to lose out on anything you might need.

But you are gonna lose out on a little article this week! Yasha needs sleep badly, or else she's gonna fall over and croak at work tomorrow! Sorry guys.

"The Duel Forest is pregnant with the pause of a duel in progress. BioKraze has stepped up to challenge the current Champion, ShatteredMirror, but the Champion is busy with other matters. It remains to be seen who shall be victorious in this test of skill. Who shall claim the power of Poptartity? Will it be the puppet of Ends of the Poptart, or will it be the first member of the Sylphiechu Fraternity? Only time, it seems, will tell true...

This would be a good place for birthday announcements every month... if anyone has compiled such a database.

Well, I'm a prof/tech writing major (meaning I'm better at systemizing information), but I think the idea is interesting and if anyone has any suggestions for what they'd want covered, I might be interested in doing something, even just a little bit, when I have the time.  It's a good and considerate idea, though, Light.  Smart thinking.
