You know it's going to be a great visit with your older sibling you see once a year when she says to you (less than 6 hours into the visit) "any adults that are obsessed with Harry Potter are all child molesters waiting to happen" and when you call her on it she says, "yes, you too". Fantastic thing is she really truly meant it. Fucking cunt. I never ever use that word but in this case? Totally appropriate. I haven't said more than two words (those two words were my response to her cheerful "good morning" this morning and they were "fuck off") to her since. Dear Wednesday, please hurry.

I might've bought another pair of shoes this weekend. *shifty look* They were the cutest little pair of fancy sandal heels and they were lime green and I couldn't resist. I really need a shoe h0r icon.

My [livejournal.com profile] slashfest works are turning out to all be monsters. Like seriously huge monsters. One is at 10k, one is at 5k and one is at 2k and barely started. My [livejournal.com profile] serpentinelion isn't going to happen in time for this round but tweaking shall occur and it shall be posted eventually.

Finally -

I happen to know of a fantastic game peopled by some amazing players that is in desperate need for the following characters (I'm willing to bribe or beg): Ron Weasley, Percy Weasley, Fred/George Weasley, Minerva McGonagall, and Parvati Patil. If you want a game with a unique premise, fantastic players, wank-free zone, active but not overwhelming gameplay and an easygoing mod*, then please please please take a look at [livejournal.com profile] nothing_goldrpg. Applications are open now and we'd love to have you. I know I have some brilliant rp'ers on my flist so I'm looking at you with my needy puppy dog eyes.

*gapes*

Jeebus, what an appalling thing to say to anyone, much less one's sibling! I don't have a mad icon, so I'll go with the sad one, because that comment really IS. Sorry you have to deal with her. *hugs*

*eyeroll*

That's when we're not worshipping Satan, as my mom and the other Laura Mallorys of the world believe.

Some people, I tell ya...

Thankfully, she gets back on a plane on Wednesday morning. I can only hope that comes sooner than I think.

Keep in mind that she said this at the beginning of a trip back from Phoenix that took four hours to make it to Tucson because they closed I-10 and routed you onto the 202 and you never made it back to I-10 without knowing the surface streets. We almost cried when we saw Ray Road and the In-N-Out. Oh Phoenix city planners - you suck.

That icon cheers me up every time. I get this little kid giggle going on every time. *giggles*

Unfortunately, this isn't the most awful thing she's ever said. One year, on Christmas, she told my little sister and I that she wished we'd never been born because she hated having to share Christmas with anyone let alone us.

We don't get along, to put it mildly, which is why no one told me she was coming for a visit until a week before her plane landed.

Crap, I missed my Sunday Satan Worship this weekend. Do you think they'll punish me?

Yeah, she had some other choice things to say but I tuned out and played Sudoku as anything is better than listening to her holier-than-thou discourses on life, fandom, and people. Nothing ever makes her happy and I refuse to try any longer.

Awwww *hugs*

When I tried to come out as bi and talk about the Harry Potter slash, my little sister threatened to throw me in her psych ward. THere are some things we simply do not talk about. She tries to feed me meat whenever I visit, too. Sisters. You can't live with 'em and you just can't kill 'em.

Okay, I want to comment on other stuff, but once I read this all I could think of was... you need a Ron???

That took some nerve.
Both myself and my sister are HUGE HP fans.
I'm a slash fangirl HP fan, while my sister thinks the idea of fanfiction is twisted, the idea of slash HP fanfiction is even more twisted, and I'm twisted for reading it. Still, she would never say anything about it beyond" that's a bit twisted, but if you like it".

That's really polite... much more than me. I greeted her this morning with "fuck off" and tonight at dinner? I told her that until she apologised for atually saying it and not the non-apology thing, that I wouldn't be speaking to her. No apology yet. Very awkward Mother's Day dinner.

It's alright, she's been a moron for almost 30 years :)

Ugh, sisters, you can't live with 'em, you can't hire a hitman.

You're right, your sister is just as bad as mine. I don't get the meat thing AT ALL. Dude, come on now. That's ridiculous and life threatening, anymore.

Does that mean that you might want to apply for Ron? *hopes*

We had a Ron but, unfortunately, her RL got complicated with school and moving and she decided to drop all her games.

Yeah, she's, um, interesting. She likes to think of herself as an only child and she has no tact. When they were handing out parts, she took an extra heaping of ego and left tact and common sense on the table.

Seeing as I know a lot of adults in RL that are into HP books (not necessarily fandom), according to your sister, the world is full of child molesters. *rolls eyes*

Does she try to give some "rational" explanation of that belief?

Considering that millions of adults the world over are enamored of Harry Potter, your sister's assessment does not bode well for the welfare of our children. *snorts*

No offense, but it sounds to me as if she has far larger problems than those she is trying to project onto you, so ignore her.

Would it be inappropriate for me to suggest that your sister is an idiot?

Jeeze. You have my sympathy. I think you should spend her entire visit talking about Harry Potter and the fandom.

That just might be the rudest thing I've ever heard someone say to a family member - and we all know that family say awful things sometimes. Fuck damned! *grr* I'm so angry on your behalf right now! *uses icon for sibling*
