All I had today was painting and a haircut. Which was enough. The haircut was a bit stressful to fit in, but it was long overdue.
My dad, on the other hand, had a fun and exciting schedule of the roof getting replaced and a guy coming by to service his car. Except he had a heart attack last night while playing hockey, so his to do list is now my to do list + "my dad is in the hospital" which isn't a very actionable point aside from occasional visits, but it's still there on my agenda on principle.
...................did I mention the roof is getting replaced? Boy...
You fucking DARE disrespect my DARLING CHILD Luigi's Mansion for Nintendo Gamecube???
I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW that my vacuum cleaner is like if you took a Poltergust9000 from Luigi's Mansion for Nintendo Gamecube and gave it rippling pecs and shredded biceps. Like you gave it the spookiest meatiest MONSTER PENIS you've EVER SEEN ON A VACUUM CLEANER.
This baby sucks up dirt, dust, AND spaghetti. This puppy gobbles up ghosts, ghouls, and spirits. This bitch DEVOURS you, your weak ass ghost AND YOUR MOTHER WITH IT'S MASSIVE VACUUM PENIS!!!!1#!
And I take care of it very well. I'm very passionate over Luigi's Mansion for Nintendo Gamecube and I take it's upkeep very seriously. It's a well oiled machine of fuck you and suck you.
So next time you threaten me, remember the massive vacuum bag of whoop-ass i hold at my disposal.
Op, I'm sorry for disrespecting.... um your darling Luigi's Mansion? Please stop threatening me with your monster penis vacuum cleaner. I meant no offense.
1/10 While looking for some posts about JFM's parenting style, I somehow stumbled across a JC support post, and it made me so angry that I just need to rant about it haha. Obviously people can have their own opinions, but this thing was just denying like every ounce of evidence we're given in the novel about certain events, that I just couldn't help myself. For instance, they talk about how poor JC had to deal with his father's favourtism, which, alright, every JC stan seems to use
2/? that as their primary argument. But then apparently JYL ALSO favours WWX over JC, which we see NO evidence of in the novel! They tried to say that there was NO DOUBT that WWX's actions had caused the fall of Lotus Pier despite JC HIMSELF ACKNOWLEDGING THAT THE WENS WOULD HAVE ATTACKED ANYWAY. They literally tried to say that JC never mistreated WWX growing up, despite the constant jealousy we see in the novel. How is that not mistreatment? And I'm actually laughing at this part -
3/10 they tried to say that maybe JC had tortured the demonic cultivators but it had never actually stated that he'd killed them. So what, they think that's a better alternative? Also, they claimed the book was from WWX's perspective and he probably just thought the worst of JC anyway, despite the fact that a) that's a very out of character thing for WWX to do and b) JC's OWN NEPHEW says that he did these things! Once again they try to argue that JC was in the right to get mad at WWX and
4/? LWJ for entering the ancestral hall, because, guess what? Apparently WWX defended LWJ and that's why the Wens attacked the Jiangs. Completely ignoring how he ALSO defended JZX, his sisters future husband, but JC doesn't seem to have a lifelong grudge against HIM. They tried to argue that JC had no choice but to lead the Siege - nevermind that he did NOT have to lead it (he didn't just participate, he LEAD the damn thing) and he was also one of the only people, other than the Jins, who had
5/? some idea of who was living there thanks to A-Yuan. What, he couldn't have just spoken up about it? How does that make him any better than the Jins? If you know something horrific has happened, and you can't even open your mouth to tell people about it - we're not actively asking him to take a stand, where telling him to BACK UP WWX'S CLAIMS since he's seen them with HIS OWN EYES - but no, apparently that's too much for poor JC to do. And okay this is getting so long but...I need to get
6/? this out of my system. They tried to argue that WWX's supposed arrogance was the reason for all of the problems in JC's life - well how about we look at some of those problems, hmm? WWX spoke up in the cave to protect JZX and LWJ; had he just left them to die, because surely the Wens would've overpowered them if it had led to a fight since there were so many of them, and word got back to the Lan & Jin sects that everyone had just stood around and WATCH their heirs die - do you honestly
7/? think there'd be no repercussions? Especially from the Jins? Not to mention, you cannot seriously commend behaviour where someone stands by and WATCHES people be attacked/killed and not do anything - has no one heard about the bystander effect? And if both LWJ and JZX were totally fine with speaking out against WC, you can't really use the argument that JC wasn't in a position to help, because they're both heirs of their sect too, and in JZX's case, he's the future sect leader.
8/? We've already discussed the fall of Lotus Pier, and I've seen plenty of discussion about the core transfer on here already. WWX protecting the Wens? Well he was obviously paying back a life debt, but on top of that, let’s not stand around and criticise him for protecting innocent people when the alternative would be letting them die, and defend the guy who was okay with letting them die. Like...JC saw a child in the burial mounds, and he's still totally fine with him dying.
9/? Apparently we're going to pretend that HE'S the victim here, and not the non-cultivators who were in a labour camp. WWX took the effort to separate himself from the Jiang Sect to protect their reputation, and from the looks of it, they really didn't suffer much. It was NOTHING compared to what he went through, at any rate. And...I'm not even going to justify listening to the 'WWX abandoned JC' argument, because I've heard it way too many times and...we know the answer to that one. But
10: basically the cherry on top of that whole post, at the end of this post they actually tried to say that WWX's fans saw him as someone who never did anything wrong, and...just the IRONY of it. JC fans basically rewrite his entire history, and I just found that really funny. And the whole thing got me worked up, so I had to vent for a bit haha

...........
There are no words for the level of bullshit. Literally the only thing they have any actual point in is saying JC has a right to get mad at WWX letting LWJ into the ancestral hall... But that’s because LWJ is an outsider to the Jiang sect, and even then, as I’ve mentioned, JC was following them through Lotus Pier like a goddamn creep and could easily have stopped them before they went in. Also, asked them to leave politely like a fucking sect leader instead of mocking and attacking them. That’s genuinely all I can say to this, you have covered pretty much everything. But the fucking... the lack of awareness in suggesting that WWX’s fans say WWX never did anything wrong (when I’ve yet to see a WWX fan who doesn’t acknowledge that the whole pledge conference thing was deeply fucked up even when it’s being argued as justified) in the same breath as that is... wow.
