Haha, I couldn't have phrased it better Smile

Chris would still be around for next year... To be quite honest, I would loath to see Glee end, because terrible though the show is, we still get the occasional Kurt song and 22 episodes with at least a few scenes of Chris in it. Movies take too long to make and reach cinemas.

I still view it as a mark of pride that I was one of the first people at GF early last year to have a post removed because I slagged off Blaine (or was it Darren? Oh it doesn't matter, does it-- they're the same). Made me feel like such a bad ass.... Judging from what I read on here, it shouldn't be a problem anymore.

There's a dedicated thread here for any slagging you might still want to get out of your system fanny2

Very very good choice .

Love that anime too. Read the manga first though.

Bad Kurtsie!

But I can understand why you would avoid it, given that the portrayal of the Klaine dynamics in the episode once again ignited a lot of angry debate. Maybe you can watch it and fastforward though the Klaine scenes.

You're from Asia? I thought it was a bit unusual that you have such an avid interest in anime and Japanese songs. neutre

I'm from Asia too, but living in Australia.

Shinra17 wrote:^ I have an elephantine memory and a selective reading of the posts on GF, even if you didn't post a lot there, your posts were more noticeable to me (actually, when we started this board, I thought about sending you a pm but I didn't dared and it was also at a time I haven't seen any post from you for a while )

For what it's worth, I always enjoyed your posts as well. I could always tell there was so much snark just lurking under the surface of all that eloquence.

I got to the point in GF that I didn't have anything to say that wouldn't get my hand slapped so I kept my "posts" in my head. I knew it was the end when I actually started preferring the flailing fan-girls and their exploding ovaries and unexplained instantaneous pregnancies on Tumblr.... a dark day indeed. dryy

Haha, I'm glad that you're curious about me coool

Hmm...let's just say I'm a Chinese living in South-East Asia. I hope that this piece of information will satisfy your curiosity a bit.

Thanks for the compliment. I was referring to the live-action tv series of Nodame Cantabile (+special+movies), though. I didn't watch the anime as the storylines are similar. I did watch some animes and have read a few mangas (I prefer animes over mangas, though), I enjoyed Nabari no Ou, Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day, Cowboy bebop (especially its music, it's just perfect for the anime!) etc.

Besides, glad to know that you're from Asia too. Which country were you born? I'm such a curious person blushh

I should really give a chance to the live-action version of Nodame, all the people who watched it say only nice things about it but I am a complete anime addicted, animes can go much further I think in the craziness field, there are no reality restriction, that's why I prefer them so much.

Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day: I adored that one too.

Actually, I was born in France but my parents are from the Vietnamese diaspora (although they're not exactly Vietnamese either Laughing

). I'm still feeling like an immigrant because of, I guess, the way I've been raised.

Oh goodness, hi, Shanna! Smile

Your kid is so adorable and I'm so happy that Chris gave him a shout-out! (--creep-alert: I've lurked around your tumblr and I think you're awesome.)

Don't feel creepy: lurking is what the internet is for. Especially Tumblr!

I'm just glad someone who was listening to NPR sent me a warning on Twitter before the interview hit the internet last night. I don't know how I would have reacted if I'd just SEEN it pop up (well, I guess I do, because that's how I found out about that first Village Voice review, last summer. Just scrolling through ChrisColferNews and boom! Description of Spence! Surreal, to say the least.).

It was super sweet to hear Chris Colfer talk about Spence - I'm glad that Spence's admiration and adoration of Chris makes him happy, too. It has certainly made our lives richer and more fun.

Anyhow, hi! Nice to meet you!
