  1. I'm really looking forward to this one! I've never found his face particularly attractive. He is a good actor though.
  2. I removed the two extra ones LOL, I just realized the same thing happened at the top of the page too! Beasty, am I going to have to follow you around?
  3. I still like flan

    A character

    Hey Gabe I'm sorry about whatever it is that had you posting the bitchy rant. I hope it gets better Mo sounds like a cool character...actually he sounds a bit like me Take care and have a great day! Kevin (who's off on his next adventure)
  6. Happy Birthday, ~Desert*Rose~ I hope you have a terrific year and an awesome birthday! May this day find you with everything you need and most of what you want -Kevin
  7. Plenty indeed! **goes to read**
  8. Here I think this is yours ***hands Snowy the :king: *** Careful, it's been passed around quite a bit recently
  9. Actually you're still a few hours early based on California time. Graeme (and the rest of us) have been giving him birthday wishes based on Australian time Never too early to start celebrating though, especially for such a nifty member
  10. Hmm, a few thoughts on this: You should hang out with the guy privately so that you can discuss this properly. I used to discuss QAF with Vancey and Matty when I was watching it. It definitely added to my enjoyment. -I really liked this episode a lot myself. The was really sweet and it was was one of the first instances in which we see I also really liked watching the Hmm, what did you think of this episode? Do you think it was necessary for Hmm, no I disagree a bit. I mean he was a genuine friend and he was cute, but he really did have a tendency to be self-absorbed and to not see the big picture. IMO, he frequently failed to understand where other people were coming from. In fact I may just argue that of all the main characters he was the one who most frequently failed in this regard. Think back to so many of his rifts with Brian, and the time he was SO or what about . No, I think Mikey is an excellent character and does a really wonderful job of embodying the perspective on the viewer, but he's very similar to so many other main characters in that he so frequently suffers from a tendency to be self-involved and to not see beyond the end of his nose. He sort of reminds me of Rory from Desert Dropping, yes he's lovable and cute, and yes his feelings are usually justifiable, but sometimes you just want to shake him and say "don't you get it!" Take care all and have an awesome day! -Kevin (who's having way too much fun with the spoiler feature )
  11. I agree with Graeme, Benji, and glomph Exactly, a good analogy is that random acts of violence, like say a drive by shooting in which the perpetrator doesn't know the victim, is a hell of a lot scarier than say a drive by shooting in which the perpetrator is killing someone who slept with his wife, or got him fired, or whatever. The reason is because it makes me (and others) think "It could have been me!" If someone is killed for a reason beyond their control it's scary. I can do my best to avoid becoming entangled with unstable, potentially homicidal individuals but there's nothing I can do if a random stranger wants to kill me. (I'm not saying it's the victims' fault at all, just that there's a little more warning and control that goes into it with the murderer is someone you know). Similarly it's scarier if someone is just going around killing gay people. I'm gay and I cannot and will not/would not change that, but if I'm minding my own business I should be left alone! There's a difference there, IMO. If the person threw a Christian (or atheist) in the toilet (or let's say the Bible for instance) simply because of their religious views that would be comparable, and I think they should receive the same treatment. Similarly someone who produced a "vulgar" work of art that seemed to be undermining any religion should potentially receive the same praise (based on merit of course). Art is a more civilized, subjective, creative form. Personally a "Piss Christ" offends me as a Christian, but I don't equate it to someone making a big deal about throwing the Bible in a toilet. I have no trouble ascribing a crime to what the perpetrator thought. To me it's all about motives. If someone backs over my cat I'm going to be really upset, but it's going to piss me off alot more, and I'm going to be spitting nails angry if the person did it on purpose to be malicious. Conversely if it was a total accident and the person is obviously sincerely sorry I'm still going to be sad, but I'm not going to be angry and I may very well try to make the person feel better and assuage their guilt. Exactly, it's the same difference that's always existed between 1st and 2nd degree murder and manslaughter. We have a long history of saying "It's worse that you carefully planned this dude's murder" vs. "Your negligence resulted in this guy's murder and you're going to be punished but we'll take into consideration that you didn't mean to". Motives are very important and crimes that affect whole classes of people are more serious. I've always held that the judicial system shouldn't be blind and completely objective; it needs to carefully weigh all the circumstances and decide on a case by case basis. No two crimes are equal. Just my thoughts, Kevin
  12. I've always wanted to see it! I'm definitely going to check it out! ****Warning Spoilers if you haven't seen the entire series!!**** Blake was my favourite recurring character as well. Yep, definitely a hottie! I don't think he was my favourite in terms of looks though. He was right up there, but I think early series Justin was more attractive. ...oh my, now I want to start several polls about QAF
  13. Aww Thanks, Benji You're right, Graeme, Perth is a very welcome addition to Gay Authors
  14. LOL, 2 more to go LOL, actually I got up to 50 Anyway, it was purely coincidental I assure you, in fact in only happened because I happened to be responding to so many of Benji's posts! (and yours and Graeme's )
  15. Awww thanks, Benji!! LOL, I really didn't intend to do that! Anyway, make about 6 or 7 more and you'll be able to come sit with me on the throne again! (Or throw me off )
  16. I didn't think anyone would notice
  17. hehe, we should form some sort of "OU" support group!
  18. OHhhh, LOL well now I know what to get you for Christmas! Wish you'd told me while I still had Steve's credit card though! (confused? Click here: Is CJames The Queen of the Evilest Cliffhangers")
  19. Ohhhh, that is an interesting theory! I hope that is part of it! Oh definitely! This way at least no extra people are being hurt, just more people are getting justice! That is much better
  20. Don't worry, your own present is particularly special
  21. LOL, I don't want to get tarred and feathered myself, but I must confess I still haven't had a chance to read "Shop Till You Drop", so I'm probably not freaking out as much as you guys about not having the new chapter up on time
  22. Wooo HOO! Happy Birthday, Sungod! I hope you have a fantastic day and an awesome year! -Kevin
  23. Well according to earlier posts in this thread Ben and Emmett are the other two gay people. Ohhh, you should DL it like I did! In fact if someone can tell me how I'll send it to you *gasp* It's much more complicated than that! You just got that from a random sampling! Justin is my favourite
  24. Happy Birthday, Colin!! It's been a real pleasure getting to know you through GA, and we're all very fortunate to have such a kind, thoughtful, witty, talented, positive person in our midst. May the coming year bring you all the happiness, joy, and success that you deserve and may your birthday be the best ever! -Kevin
