  1. Yeah, chasing the unattainable and all. That only makes it sadder!
  2. I find him the most likable because he has been through some shit and so can be salty but he's never mean like Manny is. The Scrat shorts make me sad.
  3. Define what you mean by favorite and then I can tell you my favorite character. I have to admit, I like Diego better.
  4. LOL I was talking about this with a friend last night and she called him fruitsexual
  5. I'm planning my K/S wedding anniversary. It's fun and weird but boy do I feel a little unqualified.

  6. Haha! I love my profile picture. My friend Aidan pulled it up on his camera roll once and I told him he needed to send it to me immediately so I could set my Arocalypse profile photo to it. Ah! I can't see them on my computer!
  7. so apparently shipping is a thing in "Attack on Titan"

      ALSO, apparently Erin/Levi is a big thing??? Just...WTF...that's super unhealthy and there is no indication of this in the manga or anime...just ewwwww

      wait.. why? Aren't they all trying not to die most of the time? I would think they have better priorities than dating..

  8. I find it ironic that you picked the name "Star Girl" when the books about her by Jerry Spinelli were about her romance :P

      Star Girl

      I've never heard of those books... (*looks them up*: Wikipedia may be lovely, but whoever wrote the entry for the book did not know how to do a concise plot summary.)

      I think there are worse things to unintentionally name yourself after. (At least you didn't tell me that I'd unintentionally named myself after some super horrible romance movie which has no plot except for the main characters having relationship issues :/ (which is my worst nightmare when it comes to choosing profile names...))

      Haha, yeah. I've only read the first book, and a lot of the book was about being different, about daring to be different, and accepting who you are. The romance was a tool to explore those themes, so it was OK. I read the blurb of the sequel, and it looked like pure romantic crap. I felt upset. Where was Star Girl I knew? *sigh*

  9. Is your profile image a GIF of Rick Sanchez?

  10. Gladly risk every evil kid. SPORK
  11. I got four aro pride wear things for Chirstmas Eve (and one ace shirt) and I'm really happy that my mom and grandma are coming around to it and I will post pictures later and YAY

      Thanks! I flarped up; I got four pride things total, three of which are aro pride. I did have a good day, although I was very jet-lagged.

  12. I've always thought your profile pic is cute, but I got to the episode it's from last summer. Gotta love how at the end of the episode no-one brings up Spock was stroking another sentient, intelligent being. Damn, you're obviously a huge Trekkie with a low-key obsession with Spock based on your profile. Same. I'm finishing season three of TOS with a person who I staged a Spirk wedding with.

  13. I am looking forward to seeing my space husband very much this winter break...my space husband, who is in a monogamous Star Trek relationship with me and a monogamous romantic relationship with her girlfriend...so she's in two monogamous relationships at once. Haha. Really though, I can't wait to see my friends during winter break!

  14. OH NO.

      Someone started teasing me about a crush he supposed I had, but that's not really an issue anymore. I just freaked out.

  15. Hey, is your signature a reference to "Welcome to Nightvale?"

      Cool! I'm in in the middle of the podcast right now. Cecil is such a dear when he talks about Carlos and it's fun to listen to as a fan, but my skin crawls when I think of someone describing me like that haha

  16. I can't tell if I'm romance-repulsed or repulsed by the physical actions that the people in the romantic relationships are doing/are romance-coded. I'm generally fine with couples being reasonably affectionate like with handholding and sitting particularly close to each other but I think just about everyone gets uncomfortable if two people start making out in front of them. I'm OK with romantic subplots in books , shows, and movies so long as it doesn't become overdone or given too much importance, but maybe I just hate romantic plot tumors more than most people because I don't find romance for the sake of romance to be cute. I do understand that the majority of people are romantic and it would be unrealistic for them to not have a romantic life. I ship two ships in all of the shows I watch. Sometimes when I look up shippy fan-art I think aww, that's so cute and I've actually read and enjoyed a long piece of slash over the course of...hmm...I think it was about a week...and other times my stomach starts to feel weird and I have to go do something else. Maybe the shippy stuff just has to be really done and extremely lightweight fluff for me to like it. I don't like smut at all and the thought of reading/looking at any squicks me out and is a huge NOPE, but with fluff it's way more complicated for me. Sometimes, I think sheer quantity of romantic stuff can overwhelm me and amped up levels of sensuality that I'm uncomfortable with. When people crush on me I am definitely repulsed. I completely hate it and feel angry and unfortunately I tend to direct that anger at the person crushing on me. If I find out later that someone had a crush on me, I just try to never think about it.
  17. YES YOUR FIRST SENTENCE YES. Also, I've had two...somethings...form of compression...directed at two people but I'm not really sure what they were either.
  18. I think by definiton, dating an aromantic person doesn't work. Dating is romantic, and you're romantic friend wants a relationship from their crush that their crush can't give them. The gender of your friend and the genders your friend is romantically attracted are irrelevant and so is the sexual orientation of the aromantic crush. None of that plays a factor in the reality that an aromantic person can't give someone who is crushing on them the relationship they want (unless it's a lithromantic person who's crushing but I don't think that's the situation). Sorry that this post is a little curt; I need to go to bed because it's late in Germany and I have school tomorrow.
  19. Thomas didn't think that Erin is my girlfriend. Yay.

  20. My German host-father asked me "Was hat deine Freundin gesagt?" in regards to the US presidential election. I looked at him blankly for a bit because I translated it as "What has your girlfriend said?" He clarified that he meant Erin, a female friend of mine (who has found me on Arocalypse and can see all the embarrassing stuff I have posted on here). See, in German, "Freundin" can mean "girlfriend" or "female friend" based on how it's used. Given that Thomas just used "Freundin" and expected me to know who I was talking about, I guess he thinks Erin is my girlfriend?? He doesn't think I have just one female friend, right? I didn't attempt to clarify my relationship with Erin because...well...I'm just not up to it today. The election has made me a wreck.

      He doesn't necessarily think they're your girlfriend, people sometimes use singular (Freundin/Freund) when referring to one certain friend~

      Oh yes, that classic awkward situation. 9_9 In my first language we have the same possible misunderstanding, but queer people have already started to diy their way around it. They started to say something along the lines of 'she is my girfriendly' when referring to a platonic female friend. Can you do similar word butchery in german?

      I just say my Friend NAME to avoid confusion.
