A really cool icon meme gacked from carrielh :


( Because I've ALWAYS Pyschoanalyzed With Icons )

Rec: "The Significance of Flowers"

The Significance of Flowers by ivy_chan 

"And she'd cried. Not much. Maybe not enough to be thought of as crying: the burn in her eyes, the wet glaze that made her blink too much and swallow oddly and twisted at her heart like a fist clenching it tightly. And then she'd severed her ties as well, because she'd never been one to continue something if it was a hopeless cause. Heartbreak wasn't supposed to be quite that easy. In a girls' world, best friends leaving meant the end of an age. Sasuke wasn't worth it, really, but if Sakura wanted it this bad: she'd show her."

Okay, I'm biased because I'm friends with the author and she kinda wrote the fic off a conversation we had, but this fic is still damn awesome (bellzooks , read it, stat).

It had a quiet pain and a persistent grace to the writing. ivy_chan  weaves the flowers and their meanings effortlessly into the story without it feeling gimmicky. It's about Ino, and losing people who matter to you, and reaching out and knowing when to give up.

Bleach was boring, as per usual. So glad I read that first.

Get Your Ass To The Kitchen, Soul

Things like this are why I love Soul/Maka. And Soul Eater in general.

Ah, Beloved TV Tropes

Does anyone have any examples for the Boring But Practical that aren't from video games or real life?

Also, can someone explain this joke?
