I... quit my job...

yeah...

Turned in my two weeks on friday.


I know most people wouldn't really think too hard on quiting a cashier job...

but I've worked there for five years... that's a long time...

This feels pretty big for me...

Job hunting's gonna be fun. @____@

Mostly...

Sorta...

Maybe I'm a Zombie...

That might explain a few things.

ohgodIamsotired...

So, yeah... I got Pixie back, still researching laptops/notebooks/small portable computers/whatever the kids are callin' them these days... but... life grabed me by the ankles and dragged me off into the woods for some senseless violence... or something.

Hate job. So much. SO, SO, SO much.

Soul sucking pit of dispair.

So... as soon as someone cool hires me at one of the places I applied to *hopeful thinking* I am going to quit. and possibly watch them collapse, because I think it was all of me and two other people who work during the day, one who's intellegent and acknowledges the fact that new management is braindead, and one who is braindead herself and will avoid work with a skill that would be impressive if it did not inspire such a rage inme.

But yeah... hate job. A lot...

So um.. yeah... it's been a lot of 'Work, come home, sleep, work' kinda thing... because we're short staffed, and asking for certain things from management in charge of schedule just gets me told that eventually all my shifts will be cut because having cashiers work full shifts is too costly.. because they need to give us half hour breaks, and someone needs to cover them.

I admit, I've never taken business, and I don't know economics very will... but that seems like bull to me... so...

But yeah... so.. not dead... just... over-worked, and tired and stuff...

I should get around to ranting about the new AHM issues...

I also, kinda wanna try doing video rant/review things on youtube... because they look fun... but... iunno... *thinkthinkthink* mebbe? someday? ish?

So... here I am, on a dying battery, wondering if it would be okay... to just take a hammer to this bitch.

Augh.

Now it's the little... like... power box... in the cord... and stuff... yeah... after eight months of owning this computer, I have already paid over 100 bucks in repairs, and I am still having issues. I.. augh.


Augh.


Fuck you Toshiba, fuck you.

And also, aparently I am stupid, because I thought my co-workers wouldn't screw me over, 'cause, you know, I'm their co-worker... yeah... beyond having them not properly repair it the first time I brought my laptop in, and then being jerked around today, without a full solution right now..

*sigh* so yeah, I think I'm gonna hafta go laptop shopping again... I need something durable, that won't just... y'know... die, just... 'cause... smaller, maybe, more mobile... 17" is nice for like... photoshop and watchin' stuff... but it's not really mobile... so... something small would be nice.

Iunno... my laptop would be really handy to do some research, but... huh... them's the brakes I guess...

(Auuuuuuuggggghhh)

Change, for the better, or I will fucking kill you.

I don't know why you think that you are not plugged in. I just know that you are being a douchebag, and I am really, really sick of having to fix my computers.

...haaaaaaaaaaaaaaattttteeee.

Spoiler warning for AHM and the like (I really like writing these little rant things, can you tell? they're so fun.. hee)

Okay, Mr. McCarthy, you killed Sunstreaker. And Hunter. They are dead. We get it. Rubbing it in our faces with EMO stories about how DEPRESSED and TORTURED Sunstreaker was because... someone called him ugly (okay, okay, I know it was more than that, sh..) but really? You had to write an EXTRA story, to RESTATE that Sunstreaker was AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGSTYYYYY YYYYYYYYYY? Really? We got that from the whole Martyr/Suicide/ANGSTRANTLIEKWHOA. Hell, half of the stuff you showed in your NEW STORY, were FLASHBACKS TO THINGS YOU HAVE ALREADY SHOWED US. If you are going to write a NEW STORY, to fill in the gaps left by the OLD STORY.... WRITE A NEW BLOODY STORY! Scenes of Sunstreaker in pain, and scaring the crap outta 'obligatory make-out lady' do not help. The only scene that actually DID anything beyond 'look, it's Sunstreaker, see how tragic he is? isn't my killing him such a blessing in disguise? Please stop sending me threatening letters' was the bit where he was happily leading a successful team on that... random planet. That one was okay. but it was only two pages long..... Though, thanks for confirming that there ARE lady bots wonderin' around still... 'cause... that was a little weird.. (and maybe we'll get Chromia? *fangirl hopeful face* Megatron Origins shot of the back of her head doesn't count.)

But really... 'Replay' was depressing and unnecessary... you filled in no gaps, you served no purpose... you were just there to make me feel bad... I did not want to see insecticon rejects eating his face... I still want to hold onto that ridiculous fangirly hope that someone with sense will retcon Huntstreaker back into the series... because they were seriously interesting... and they did almost nothing. I mean.. plot wise? I mean.. I guess they made AHM happen.. somehow (seriously.. I was hoping the Sunstreaker story would be an explanation as to HOW THE HELL THE DECEPTICONS GOT HUNTER.) but really? *sighs* The way headmasters were done in this series was REALLY, REALLY interesting. And it was just sorta like.. '...nah, I think I'd rather just kill them for AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGST'

Fuck you McCarthy. I'm sittin' over here, makin' a head canon that doesn't fill me with Augh. TC's okay, Huntstreaker are secretly fine, Prime’s resurrection makes sense (I swear, if Perce turns out to be COMPLETELY lobotomized and nothing more than a mindless gun... I don't know... bad things... seriously... gnraaarrr...)

Also, I'd really like to see Drift in the hands of a writer who... realises the necessity of back story? I don't know... I'd REALLY like to see the shift from Deadlock to Drift. I want to know how things changed in him, and how he was before... y'know? bah... but that has nothing to do with AHM 14.



Now, then, for Galvatron.

You were actually interesting.

Seriously, it was witty, well written, attention grabbing, and I find myself legitimately fascinated with the direction this may pull the series in. (I for one, really hope we don't actually see anything for a while... though perhaps subtle undercurrents of unrest and things gone awry, though for the most part almost forgotten before some sort of 'big reveal' and an 'oh shit what?!' and we find our heroes facing a powerful foe that seriously threatens them... (gimme the adrenaline pumping action and slack-jawed terror that you gave off in Stormbringer, give us a fear we can FEEL from our merry band of mechs. Pleeeaaaase?)

But really Scourge was... kinda adorable. XD He made me giggle a few times... 'They were supposed to be in my image' made me giggle.

Cyclonis had me really hooked. I want very much to read more, know more, see where all this is going. (I really need to go back and read his Spotlight again.. and Revelations... and.. well.. I just need to go back and read everything over again, I think... There are things I have forgotten... things I didn't know when I read the first time...really I need to sit down and read all this again...)

Kinda curious if Galvatron's gonna be crazy.... he seemed sane enough for now... but that doesn't mean he won't start shooting Cyclonis soon... @___@

Anyway... AHM 14 was certainly better than AHM 13. 'course that said, I may just need a reminder of the many ways it fails continuity wise, but, really... IDW has just.. SERIOUS ISSUES IN CONTNUITY.

I mean really... I guess I can understand if the writers didn't all know what each other were planning.... but shouldn't there have been SOMEONE checking to make sure everything worked 'fore publishing? I mean really... graahhh.... editors. Someone... get on continuity check. MAKE. SENSE.

And Coda, weren't you supposed to be about clearing up continuity issues? Thus far you've made MORE issues, and then made a pointless story to refeed us stuff we already knew... then gave us an interesting story... that did absolutely nothing to clear up the 'wtf' left behind by half the shit goin' down in AHM...

(you know... with how much I rant 'bout it... you'd think I really hated AHM... but really, I like it.. I like it alot... I'd just like it more if it hadn't killed -ations.... and made sense. @____@)

On an old and completely unrelated note… how do you NOT NOTICE that your species have no women? How do you spend all your time using male pronouns and not once question it? How does one ‘instinctually’ use female pronouns when women SUDDENLY appear in your society? How was this not something that blipped the WTF radar? Are Cybertronians just STUPID?

Also, if you’re going to say that Cybertronians were all male before Jhiaxus decided to go fiddle around with Arcee’s……..CNA… and you decide to introduce romance…. You cannot deny the slash fans. You cannot. There is no denying. If they have romance, and were only men previously, and have ACKNOWLEDGED a gender difference, then you will have had homosexual relations. Because if you have the capacity for romance in an all male society, there’s still going to be romance. I understand not wanting to ’ push the boundaries’ or whatever… but you cannot argue that slash is impossible.

*is far too tired to still be writing* @_______@
