I wouldn't know the longest I've stayed awake, but it's like to border on the permanant brain damage side of the sleep depravation spectrum.

Cristo Meyers reminds me of that crazy drunk guy who suicides against the aliens in that Will Smith movie Independence Day.

Blame Angelic Slayer for this.

God. Kill me now?
*whimpers*
I'm only on chapter ten and it's agonisingly stupid and the spelling and the grammar and the plot and the mary sues and the sheer godawful moronicness is physically painful.
Plus Little Sister keeps asking what's wrong as I'm whimpering out loud.
And yet within this the typos idiocy makes for some accidental fun.

COurse, within about five paragraphs it turns out a vampire can apparently commit suicide.
Also, The Corpse Bride isn't a depressing film. I love that film, can't wait for Alice in WOnderland to come out, I saw a trailer/clip of the Chesire Cat and he was weird. :smallsmile:
EDIT: And "Loopin" has a "womb". I just . . . what?

Ugh.
Some of this stuff has to be deliberate. It just has to be. No American seventeen year old girl (assuming it's a self - insert) can spell that badly. A two year old can keep a basic plot and not - gods.
As the Goddess of the Written Word this has gone far too far. Even if it is a probably deconstruction.
I shall Smite! it.

This pretty much sums up my thoughts on it.
I listened to a recording of a guy reading some of it, pronouncing all of the spelling errors. It was a little depressing but very funny.

Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
On chapter twenty seven now. I am certain a two year old could plot and write a better story.
I don't know why I'm reading this; if it's a deconstruction it's gone too far and is just plain hideously brain destroying. If not: how could someone write this?
The names are almost never 'spelt' correctly and half the time you can't tell who any of the supprting characters are; and the author clearly has no idea of even the most basic fact of the series, films or country it's set in.
The only way I can preserve my pride in any system of education is to pretend it's all deliberate.
Why am I reading this?
I figured out the answer: It's the literary equivalent of an eighty car pile on on a motorway right next to a train crash. You just have to slow down to look at the carnage.

I never could bear it to read My Immortal, myself. I click on the link, read the beginning... and I give up.

Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
I wouldn't even dare try, because I know if I did I would find myself tempted to try and do something worse.

Lucky.
I'm still applying logic to this thing. ANd I don't know why! There aren't plot holes or chronology problems in the story. Because there's nothing holding this 'chapters' together.
I know nothing about these bands but I'm pretty certain 'evinezenz' existed before 'Gren Day' seeing as I listened to the former before I was in Y9 and it was an established band even then. Whereas 'Gren Day' I've only heard of for the past three or four years.
I wish I wasn't so close to the end that it'd make no sense to give up now. Not when I'm so close to finishing it.
. . . And is Tom Bombadil really in it?? That's just wrong.
And I don't particularly like LotR. AND HOW CAN HE KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE!!!???!!!!!
If my brain melts, I'm suing DeeRee.

Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
Green Day predates Evanessence by a good 4 years.
Wait, why am I defending this?
-
Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
Tom Bombadil appears there and knows the future? Hm, it suddenly sounds tempting. In a "let's see what happens if I push this red button" kind of way. Or it would, if it weren't for the writing style of a blog made by a 10-year-old.

Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
Oh dear. I'm glad I've never written anything quite that terrible. Have I? Please tell me I haven't...
-
Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
Tom Bombadil is Tom Riddle.
Marty McFly, though, is Marty McFly.

Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
and that is why I will never read it. It really can't be as bad as I think it will be
-
Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
@Cristo: that means she got something right!
@Destro: you have never ever written anything this bad, and noone ever will again.
I, just, no, never again. I can't believe this was written. It has its own page on TVTropes too.
-
Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
That's somewhat comforting. Yay for being not terrible at writing!
-
Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
Right. The list is now:
Em Blackleaf
DD the Cookiemonster, genderswapped.
EleventhHour, but according to her, not her current or previous avatar.
SMEE, current avvie.
Mauve Shirt. Her normal avvie, not the Dragon week one.
Francinethefighter (GB'd Fredthefighter)
CurlyKitGirl (but Dr. Bath will be asked for permission to base somthing off his artwork.)
Also, is My Immortal really that bad?
-
Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
It's fiction. There will always be that gentle barrier of "this is not intended to be reality" preventing fiction from inflicting the most grievous wounds. (It's why roleplaying is so safe and cozy. Even in the midst of screaming drama, there's always the fiction of a persona and the option to stop roleplaying.) Someone has written some polemic, on an equal level, about a topic which began as non-fiction. That is writing to be pitied and feared. Heck, trot on over to the "Is your child a Goth?" thread and witness it for yourself.
-
Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
Ah, My Immortal. Good times, gooood times.
I think it's laughably bad. I even held a panel at an anime convention where we read it to an audience. We even had the audience join in and read different characters. :smallbiggrin: I'm doing this panel again in November.

A challenge? I am sure that if we tried hard enough.... :P
On a serious note I have not had time to read much, and am forcing myself to be selective at the moment.... all the talk of My Immortal piques ones interest, but I shall resist for now.
Although the title does make me think of My Little Pony for some reason :S

Re: Admiral Euphoria's Random Banter Thread of Delusional Grandeur #124
So... No one up for scrabble then?

I'd dispute that.

And then, with no one to play with, Zero played scrabble by himself then cried himself to sleep.

Have to agree there. There's absolutely nothing that can touch My Immortal. It's like the SWAP.avi of fanfiction.

Just because we've never come across something worse, doesn't mean it isn't out there. I doubt it though. The worst parts were the interjections by the author, I think. Although there's nothing in it that could be called good.
