Feb. 6th, 2005 03:59 pmSometimes I read something and wonder, did I just read that? And the answer is usually, of course I did. However, this morning may have taken the biscuit for reading cracked up stuff. I was wandering friendsfriends and started reading a post about something or other and it said something about Ed, Edd and Eddy angst stories at the Pit of Voles ( If anyone doesn't know, Ed, Edd and Eddy is a kids cartoon on Nickelodeon about three friends ) At which point I stopped and knew I was going to go look them up, because man, EEandE angst fic, how could I not? So I did and there were hundreds of the things. All of which had the characters aged up to about 17 and most of them very dark. I'm talking rape, drug use, suicide, beating up, gay bashing dark here.
I also discovered that double D, who in the cartoon is a wimpy skinny short studious character who never takes off his hat is the person that all these things happen to, which of course he is! He's the stereotypical whipping boy, slender, short and a geek. He's the Blair of the EEandE fandom. He even has glossy raven shoulder length hair under that hat! I was so gleeful when I realised that. Within half an hour I read about him being raped by the Kankor sisters, cutting his wrists, taking an overdose, being a cutter, being gay bashed, raped without lube by Eddy, abused by his parents. He wailed, he sobbed, he drank, he became addicted to every substance known to man, he was even raped by Johnny who then went on to use Plank ( a plank of wood with a face that he carries around ) to bugger him with. The comments in that story made me laugh as the author replied saying people seemed to be fixated on how plank would fit, and was annoyed because she had specifically said over the years plank had become smaller. But still, Edd was raped with a plank of wood, what did she expect people to comment on?
Moving on, because I don't want people to think I'm I pervert for reading that stuff or anything ;)
Corey amused me yesterday when we playing video games together by showing me how two of the guy characters would kiss if you got then close enough and pressed a certain button. ( it wasn't the Sims either ) So then it was a case of our characters killing each other then making out, just because they could. He's gone to his friend's house for dinner right now but when he comes back we have to work on learning the sign language alphabet again as he's needs it for his communication badge at Cubs. Which reminds me, I really have to get his badges stitched on or it will be a case of using super glue.
First though I'm going to get my second Chris day pictures together, maybe LJ will even let this post to everyone's flist and not just selected ones like yesterday.
