I Hope I Lie & Tell Everyone You Were A Good Wife

You're welcome.

The very first time I heard 'Little Lion Man' I immediately thought of Ron Weasley. And now there is not only a Ron Weasley vid to that song but a perfect Ron Weasley vid.

I love tumblr as much as the next girl but it is a terrible place to post fic. Usually the formatting sucks and half the time when people reference a fic, it takes me forever to figure out where it actually is.

I, uh, totally forgot what that first video was about. Excuse me whilst I find a cloth to wipe the drool from my keyboard...

Allow me to summerize: hot men want you to fondle your boobs. For your health.

Mmm... I found that very informative. Yes. Lots of ... very useful... wow, those abs. So many, many abs.

So very many sexy abs.

Oh man, that Ron vid was stunning. <3

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

It totally was.

Fic posting is the one thing that would make Tumblr the ultimate website. If fic posting was actually possible on Tumblr, I would not know what to do with myself.

*saves videos for later*

I admit, it would be nice. However, the truth is that Tumblr is TERRIBLE for fic posting and conversation, and people don't seem to realize this.

[whisperingwasp.livejournal.com]

I'm glad someone else agrees that tumblr is terrible for conversation because when I first added people I found that it was very hard to reply to their tumblr posts. Sometimes you can't even reply to them properly unless they turn on the reply option.

And the reblog option is not really ideal if you don't want to post your conversation onto your pretty tumblr again and again.

Tumblr is good for fic reccing but not for posting fic. Maybe that's why people haven't copped onto that quite yet.

Exactly.

See, I've even had trouble following recs, because often I can't figure out where the link to the actual fic is, or which fic people are talking about (sometimes they don't specify) and it's very frustrating.

I laughed so hard the first time I saw that breast cancer video. And yet...I watched the whole thing ;)

That Ron Weasley video <333 Forever.

WHO WOULDN'T WATCH FIVE MINUTES OF SEXY MEN?

That Ron Weasley video <333 Forever.

Pretty much yes.

OMGGGG. That Ron vid... ♥ So well-edited and beautiful and UGH, FEELINGS.

(it just confirms to me that R/Hr is immensely frakked up and not meant to be, though)

ITA re: fic on tumblr. WHYYYY? There is this one Darcy/Loki fic that started off so well and is in-character and deliciously tense and awesome but it drove me MAD trying to find the bits and pieces of it and I have given up. *criz*

I go back and forth on R/Hr. I see it's potential flaws but in a lot of ways it works for me.

EXACTLY! There is no good way to mark fic or comment on it or freaking FIND it.

I'm the same way. There are some R/Hr moments I actively dislike in the series but there's also lots of things about the ship that make me squee as well.

[redbrunja.livejournal.com]

Which moments really rub you the wrong way?

[whisperingwasp.livejournal.com]

Umm, I'd say the moments which rubbed me the wrong way are when Ron and Hermione fight in the first parts of the series. From what I remember, I was largely annoyed by how often they would argue over the smallest of things. Overall, I like them much better when they work together, so it's kind of why I tend to favour their moments in book 7 as opposed to their moments in the earlier books.

Then again, now that I'm older and understand that teenagers often argue because they're new at dealing with complex relationships, I might not find that Ron and Hermione's arguments as annoying if I watched and read all the books again. *shrugs* I guess I'll have to schedule a rewatch. :)
