Now Sporking: Family Matters, Part 3/[???]


"Wait, yer tellin' me y' decided, outta nowhere, t' restart th' spork NOW?" the sandy-haired adolescent complains, abruptly dumped into the sporking room.

Yep.

"We did get over a month off," his magenta-haired companion points out, dusting herself off as she rises from the floor.

"Too bad! Look at th' Little Miss Mary sporkers! Now there's a spork that ain't EVER goin' t' be finished!"

Are you seriously comparing Cori Falls, even at her worst, to Little Miss Mary?

He pauses, biting his lip, and then shakes his head. "Aw no. No, no, no, no, no." He raises his hands in a defensive gesture. "You ain't gonna make me spork ANYTHIN' resemblin' THAT fic."

Good. Now that we're clear...

Short this time! Usual Cori-warnings, but you're used to them. As for the actual content - did you know that chasing after Pikachu is apparently part of Jessie and James's job description? You didn't? Neither did canon! )

Now Sporking: Family Matters, Part 1/[???]

A magenta-haired adolescent buries her face in her hands. "Can't you just go Nuzlocking?"
"Oh no! Jessie an' James are havin' a fight! But they get back together again, cry like babies, eat French toast, an' have sex fer four hours. An' Meowth's a furry." A scruffy-looking blond gets up from his seat. "There y' go, I just sporked it. So long!"
Nice try.

Trigger warning for abuse, abuse apologism, and a dysfunctional relationship. Jeez, this is feeling less like a French-toast-filed romance novel and more like Pokemon: 50SOG Version. )

(Anita Blake Series) "Shutdown" Sporking


This story was discussed on [livejournal.com profile] lkh_lashouts here. [personal profile] lliira sporked it here. I am sporking it because I can add something new - namely, a line-by-line sporking. Since it's already been beaten to tar, I also have the luxury of inserting CAPSLOCK reactions rather than dissecting it in detail if I so desire. ...And this thing merits CAPSLOCK, believe me.

Disclaimer: You could not pay me to take credit for this. Laurell K. Hamilton produced this, and by gad, she can HAVE it.
Everything Warning: It's an Anita Blake story.

In retrospect, I really shouldn't have done this all in one run. )
Any analysis will wait until later. That was... unexpectedly bad. I mean, I knew it was bad just from reading it, but a close reading just exposed countless layers of awfulness and... awfulness, that's all I can really say about it. "Creepiness" doesn't do it justice. Well, the sheer amount of CAPSLOCK during the spork probably made that abundantly clear.

Anyway, I hope readers enjoy!

Nope.

Liveblogging Orson Scott Card's... dubious... rendition of Hamlet.


So I'm using Google Books for my reference, so I'm not getting the whole thing. It apparently starts on page 77, and my preview begins on page 94.

That said, by the time I can see it, he hasn't even GONE OFF TO STUDY ABROAD. So, for a rendition of "HAMLET"? It desperately needs an editor.

And, oh boy, does it! You see, Orson Scott Card wrote:
"I have little interest in a dithering hero; nor am I much inspired by revenge plots. Yet I keep hearing that this is the greatest of them all.

So I analyzed the story to see what it would take to make me care about it."
So, naturally, he rewrites Hamlet as an excruciatingly flat hero who is Always Moral and Righteous and Actually a Pompous Ass (Unintentionally).

Ahem. I mean.

Trigger warning for pedophilia, misogyny, and Orson Scott Card. Um, does the last makes the other two redundant? )

Overall review of the Google Books sample forthcoming.

A magenta-haired teenager frowns and looks up. "We're doing another sporking?"
"Don't y' have work fer Das Sporking an' Silver Sporks t' do? T' say nothin' of research?" her sandy-haired companion asks, looking askance at the screen from under his Rocket cap.

Oh, boy, time for another 'Let's Vilify Social Networking!' article...


Can Facebook lead to psychosis? One study says so
Researchers at the University of Tel Aviv say social networking can have seriously deleterious effects on the psyche.

Well, that's dramatic. Let's see what was actually found.
Mainly bears defecating in the woods, social networking being treated as THE ONLY ADDICTIVE THING EVER, and arrogant generalizations. And this was written for a TECH site. *facepalm* )

guardians_song: Colored picture of Ariana Dumbledore&#39;s official art (Ariana Dumbledore)

Ooh boy. (To be fair, she's partly right. ...By some of the wonkier definitions.)


"I think there are many feminists who would say that I am not a feminist. But, to me ... I love women, I have a lot of girlfriends, I admire them, they make so much more sense to me than men, and I feel like the world is a better place when women are in charge. So that kind of by default makes me a feminist. I love working in a female world." --Stephenie Meyer

Let's unpack this, shall we?

In which I argue that Meyer actually means what she says, if you view it through a Draco Trilogy-like lens of ''Good gad, this entity does not have thought processes resembling those of humanity.'' )




Analyzing this quote did make me realize one thing, though -

Alice is the Twilight-universe's equivalent of a liberated woman.

Heaven help us all.

Now Sporking: Sexual Privilege Checklist


[personal profile] harp recommended that I should tackle this thing. And boy, is it a bizarre doozy. Not that it doesn't have some valid points, but others... just creep me the hell out. (Hope this spork is about what was intended.)

Disclaimer: I am "sexual", which means I am not asexual. I am also not interested in shagging every person fitting my vague preferences that comes along. Oh noes!!! According to this list, I don't exist!!!

Yes, that's about the level of what we're about to encounter...

Sporked-text in regular font, my commentary in bold type.


Trigger warnings for discussed homophobia, rape culture, slut-shaming, aaaand a whole bunch of other such stuff. And for some asexuals who genuinely think that homophobia is no longer an issue except for a 'vocal minority'. ...Yes, it's THAT sort of SJWing... )

A tough-looking teenager suddenly sits up, looking alarmed. “This one ain’t another furry fic, is it?”

No.

A White Today, and a White Tomorrow: How James Got His Mojo Back

How James Got His Mojo Back

by Cori Falls
Initial word count: 19,758. Well, let it not be said that Cori Falls skimped on quantity in her oneshots. I’ll give her credit for that, at least. She would ace NaNoWriMo. Give her one episode that really angered her, and she would have completed it within the week.

This here is an innocent little Lyn/Florina fanfic that only made it to three chapters before conking out.

That said, it's not a well-written one, so I'm sporking it. Roy, Elbe, and Richard are being brought in again.
Just guess how many times the fic will undergo spontaneous tense changes before this is over. Guess. )
