Interesting Week So Far...

It's been an interesting week so far since I went on hiatus for a while. I'm in my new apartment now and I just finished setting up my stuff. Phew!

I just found out that my fanfic One Less Lonely Gurl got deleted by the fanfiction.net admins along with the commentaries by Coralline Slayer, Gokiburi Prince (Leaning on the Fourth Wall), and Nazirul Takashi. So, those links don't work anymore. The only complete commentary so far is the one in Project After Forums. I will soon make a rehost site here for the fanfic. No one can take away our lulz!

Furthermore, I found out that my fanfic already has its own TV Tropes page when I saw that one of my top traffic sources is TV Tropes, a well-known 'cheat sheet' for writers everywhere. I've been a fan of that page for quite some time, but I don't do edits there. I just read the tropes, and every day that I visit there, I learn a thing or two. It has helped me improve my writing thus far.

My fanfic aside, I also found out that a few other trollfics have been recently deleted by the admins such as the infamous Jo Bekke at Hugwrts. (I'm too lazy to type it the way Jo Bel did.) They're doing a pretty good job purging the site of badfic/trollfic.

Let's just say that my faith in humanity (actually, the FFN admins...) has been partially restored until Jo Bel wreaks her bigoted vengeance again. Her brother said that she isn't a troll, unless of course, if Jo Bel, her brother, her cousin, her boyfriend, and the hacker are all the same person with multiple personality disorder...

Elsewhere: This Blog's Name

Troll's Eye View: The Book
I went on to randomly Googling my blog's name, Troll's Eye View, to see what would come out. I discovered that my website actually shares names with a book.

Coincidentally, just like my blog that tells a story from the point of view of a former internet troll (considered to be the 'villain' of the internet), this book tells stories from the point of view of the antagonists. I'm also working on a story told from the point of view of an antagonist, Sheldon James Plankton (who coincidentally shares names with me, and also coincidentally, James Sullivan, James Durbin, Michael James Way, Zachary James Baker, and St. Jimmy. Oh, and Harry Potter's dad, too.)

Yeah, James is an awesome name. :)

Anyway, I firmly believe that no one is born entirely evil or good, and that life is just infinite shades of gray. I live with the principle of doing my best to see what is good in everything and the bad in even the most 'perfect' of Mary Sues. This belief system is very similar to what is being presented in this book, which I might consider reading someday.

Plankton
Ever since I was a kid, I've always been fascinated with villains and why they almost always lose. I've always seemed to understand that villains don't really just do things for the evulz. Even if the story itself would say that they are just evil by nature, I don't actually believe in things and people being naturally evil. (Yes, even insanity counts as a logical motive for being evil, therefore, s/he isn't innately evil. Insanity, in turn, has to be caused by something traumatic that must have happened in the past.)


Fun Fact: This is my third post that doesn't have a jump link.

Sue Profile 003: Ebony Way

Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way
What better way to celebrate the 10th post special of this blog than to have a character profile for the most infamous fanfic character ever? Meet Ebony Way, the infamous ultimate-Mary-Sue of the Harry Potter trollfic we have all come to love/hate, the legendary My Immortal. See for yourself the epic abuse of the English language from awful grammar down to hilarious misspellings, the compelling plot that seems to be the perfect parody of teenage angst as presented by the media, and the troll's wild sense of humor!

Ebony is the mother of all Mary Sues out there, and One Less Lonely Gurl's C'ren Bieber is actually one of her descendants who, shamefully, became a prep in an attempt to rebel against the norm that Mary Sues are usually 'goffs.' (This is actually a slight giveaway that I'm a troll all along and that I'm also a misfit in society and school even if I pretended to hate on them in One Less Lonely Gurl.)

Many, including myself, have tried to tried to imitate, reach, and surpass the legendary status of My Immortal, but none have succeeded as of yet. Thus far, this fanfic stays the stuff of legends and so does this character who looks surprisingly gorgeous and creepy at the same time in my fan art and interpretation of her. She can't get any more goffik than this!

Presenting... the awesomeness that is... Enoby!!!

Sue Profile 002: Jo Bele Puttr

Jo bele Susie lilee Puttr
Jo Bekke at Hugwrts is the new My Immortal, written by Jo Bel (fortunately, her account has been deleted by the FFN dudes...), some person who hates on Northerners, gay people, and blacks. It is a fanfic that features Jo Bel herself as the self-insert Mary Sue main character who spends her days killing off innocent Northerners. It's a really disturbing, vile fanfic that makes My Immortal and One Less Lonely Gurl look like they were written by stupid prepubescent tweens. (Note: I have nothing against prepubescent tweens. It's just that the internet is brainwashing us to think that they are all stupid when they are not. More on that in my next blog post, unless I choose to continue commentating on my own trollfic. Also, both of these fanfics are trollfics written by Todd and I, respectively, just for the lulz.)

Fun fact: Tara himself, yes... himself, actually commentated on this horrid story. His real name is Todd, as I've said. I'm still skeptical about this though, but if he's telling the truth, than he's the most epic troll the internet has ever known. See the link for yourself.

Another fun fact: When I was drawing my interpretation of Jo Bele (picture above), I realized that C'ren Bieber is much more gorgeous than her. Yes, really. Maybe it's because C'ren is my OC-Sue no matter how much I abhor her personality. At least C'ren can make sense... sometimes.

Now for her ridiculously offensive character profile...
(Disclaimer: I donut, er... don't own this horrid fanfic, fortunately. But then again, I also don't own this Harry Potter thiny, I mean, thingy. Dis... this is just a fan-made character profile OK? Also, if you are offended by her character profile, please be reminded that the fanfic that this character is in is even more offensive. Also, kindly correct me if there's anything wrong in the character profile. I haven't completely read the failfic yet because I value my sanity.)
