Friday night, omg

Dirk Benedict? Still an asshole

On a girlier note, I have this problem with necklaces and I'm not sure there's a solution. The hair on the back of my neck (smallish, wispy bits) get caught in the clasp and the loops around it and sometimes the chains, too. Is there any way to stop this, or am I doomed?

You guys, I have officially signed up for [livejournal.com profile] thelittlebang and now I'm vaguely panicky, except, not.

Also, I started writing a fic with Kitty and Faiza and realized that,um, maybe that wasn't such a great idea for purimgifts. (fic will still be finished, because I <3 both of them)

I'm not sure what it says about me that I couldn't be less girly and yet I have a possible solution to this.

Put some clear nail polish on the clasp and links.

Just, um, make sure it dries completely before you put the necklace on or you'll end up with bigger problems than you started with.

Then again ... you could always try shaving your head ... ;-)

Oooh. I shall try that. I like my hair too much to shave!

God, he just will not SHUT UP. Of course, this is the most attention he's had in ages.

Dirk Benedict? Still an asshole

The more he opens his mouth, the more I realize just how pathetic he is. Yes, poor baby, your auditions didn't go well because of evil PC women who had revenge fantasies about their ex boyfriends. *pats*

I might be a little more impressed with Dirk's masculinity campaign if he'd say anything about Robert Bly. Not that I got all the way through the Bly book I read, but it's the principle.

I have that problem with necklaces, too. Never yet found a solution.

I think my (very liberal) part of rural Vermont would blow Dirk's mind. Kids here still throw snowballs and jump off things and run around in the woods — but this includes the girls, which I suppose he would find way too emasculating. Not my fault he suffers from micropenis, so too bad.

They do stuff like that here, too. They even sled down hills where it might end badly...

OMG. I think when air quotes outnumber the actual quotes, you have a problem. Also if you talk about women "handing out" babies. Urgh.

I'm past the panicky stage now, and not to the next one, I think.

I'm trying to tell myself that 15,000 words isn't really that long.

I'm not sure it's helpful. Maybe I should be panicking more?

I think I'm more panicky over having to have actual plot and stuff that hangs together and is readable and interesting.

Wait. We need a plot?

*tells brain it's just a big misunderstanding*

I'm most worried about that part, too, to be perfectly honest. Plot does not come naturally to me.

Okay- as an actor, can I just say that I don't appreciate being called a 14 year old intellectually?

I'm more satisfied with myself and who I am BECAUSE I'm an actor, not in spite of.

Fuck you, Benedict. Fuck you. :(

PS- I had so many angry SG-1 icons for this post, it was hard to pick one... lol

I find my self torn about whether to comment and give you more of the attention you so obviously are pleading for, or to let you know exactly how reprehensible I find this piece of ill-educated drivel.

First of all, the very idea of someone, in this day and age, actually saying that women "hand out" babies is possibly the most offensive misogynistic comment I think I've ever read and completely absurd. I am a woman. I assure you I possess all of the anatomical components thereof, and yet I would much rather have a cigar than a baby And yet, this does not make me a man or a lesbian, as I'm sure you would suggest, the way that all men of your caliber do when presented with a woman who possesses her own sense of purpose.

Second, I would like to respond to another statement you've made on the record, about how acting is a profession for 14 year olds. As a trained actor, I find it offensive that you would mock the ability and time required to do something that you, yourself, have done. Perhaps because your psyche remains entrenched in that age bracket, you feel the need to suggest such a thing, but this statement is clearly the railings of an idiot who is angered at the success he failed to achieve. (And, if your response to this is to draw my attention to the peons who have pledged their love and devotion to you on this page, I would point out that millions of idiot, terrorists and dictators also had followers. This makes their statements and philosophies no less absurd.)

What exactly threatens you about this Starbuck? Is it the fact that she actually achieves a fan following and an audience not entirely comprised of idiots from backwoods though patterns? Is it the fact that she's a far better actor on her worst day than you were on your best? Or is it simply that she's the many, many women that have rejected you throughout your lifetime, which were most assuredly your inspiration to create a character who got so many women on a regular basis. As sad as it is that you turned to acting to become something that you never could on your own, please do not mistake this for the goal of every actor.

You are a tragic, shadow of an educated human being and to suggest that you drop dead is, perhaps, letting you off to lightly. I can only wish that this castration had been physical rather than symbolic. Allowing you to procreate would be one of this world's most horrific mistake.

Please shut up.

You know the funniest thing? You've never seen Katee act, and yet you're completely right. Her Starbuck is incredible with layers and tension and reality behind her.

Re: My comment posted on his original pathetic rant...

I would just like to point out at this point that I have now truly observed Katee act, and yes. Yes she is. :)

Starbuck ftw...

...wait, did it say Dirk read two books or wrote two books?
And were they coloring books?
Such angst for an ex-D list celeb. :)

"But when they got power, there was a great joy in being able to tell me what to do when I came in to audition. I think maybe they all had a guy in their past that had some of that in them, and it was revenge."

PRICK.

Is it all necklace clasps or just certain ones? And is it the clasp itself or the chain?

The reason I'm asking is that I had the problem with one particular chain (never any others) and it would literally devour my hair. Turns out that the chain was defective and had a hair-eating rough spot.
