To counterbalance my earlier bitching, a link to a discussion on class differences in POTC - a pretty good topic, even if I wasn't the one to bring it up. ;-)

Go check it out!

“Time Has a Stop”
Rating: PG
POTC: Will, Calypso, Bill; implied W/E
Disclaimer: I do not own these, and I do not make any profit off these characters or situations.
Summary: Why should the trivia of mere mortals matter to a goddess? Will tries to think like Jack. Missing AWE scene ... sorta.
A/N: This story certainly isn’t the homage it deserves, but I did borrow the title out of an Aldous Huxley novel. Thanks to betas [livejournal.com profile] yoiebear and [livejournal.com profile] metalkatt for their help; any lingering errors are not their fault.

Everybody else had gone dead still, too )

Bad karma

One of my wiser friends told me I was blowing all the good karma I've built up by doing a rare bitching last night about fandom (and yes - look back, it is relatively uncommon these days), and I'm thinking she must be right. I have just a *smidge* of a little extra money I came into, and instead of being able to go down to the Mexican restaurant for some chips and salsa, I have to eat my damn soup and my damn applesauce and my damn yogurt thanks to the loss of my damn wisdom teeth.

*kicks rock*

And my jaw hurts.

*kicks rock*

Ah well, maybe I can entertain somebody with my misery, at least. LOL.

Please, tell me about your worse health problems and make me feel lucky? I well know from the days of a 16.6 TSH how feeling like lower than bedrock demands the occasional rant somewhere not sullying your own space. Have at!

Well, a fellow claiming to be in charge of the site where [livejournal.com profile] mamazano's pirated fanfic was posted to much accolade (not to her, of course) is basically saying he doesn't care if that happens on his site. You might want to check it out for yourself, Age of Sail fans. If this is true, it's a rather serious breach of mod protocol.

You might also want to stay away from the website. I would not want to put my ideas into a forum where management has made it clear it's perfectly OK to lift other people's ideas without giving them so much as a nod of thanks or ownership. And if you're already a member, you might wish to think twice about what you've handed them so far ... lest it turn up in a published story or book someday almost word for word. You can guess that you likely won't be paid or at least receive a "thank you" for it.
