You can't figure it out yourself? :p
I'm not actually excited for the orgy scene, I dislike how Scott Cawthorne thought that was a necessary addition to his book :P Like they're adults, but it's still really weird that he felt the need to put in an orgy scene in a book about them trying to survive killer animatronics. And the main character even drags her little brother into the orgy! Like what?!
What?! 0-0
Sometimes I find it hard to believe he's a 43-year-old divorced Christian father of four kids
Well there are many "Christians" who hate anyone who isn't heterosexual *Shrugs*
Mom is letting my middle brother go out Trick-or-Treating with me because she doesn't feel like going this year, and I am so mad. Last year, he dragged my baby brother halfway across town just to get candy from his friend's house. I am seriously going to snap him in half if he pulls some stupid BS like that again.
I guess, but they still hate things like orgies and things like that.
I wouldn't blame you.t
Though you get to go at least: \ I'm not trying to like, guilt you or anything. But it does suck I'm gonna be stuck at home, especially since you're the only person I'm doing a solo RP with: p
You have no idea who my character even is though :P
So? That makes the RP all the more exciting, since I don't know what to expect :p
Yeah...Stella's manic. You probably should stay away from her :P
Back from Trick -or-Treating! A lot of people actually knew what I was! And I saw a guy giving out candy who was dressed like the King of Depravity from Blood Battle Blockade! I won't let it go that Mom missed it, haha
I don't feel like I got a lot of candy, but I did get a lot of cool stuff, like cookies and fruit snacks! I can't wait to eat it all!
Some old lady gave me a bag of dried fruit haha
HahaWe've had 18 trick or treaters so far
Nobody came to our house lol
We didn't have anything to give them.
My stomach hurts....
Do you know why?
Too much candy.
Your body must absolutely hate you >.<
It always hates me, so nothing new.
24 more days until my birthday!
Mom: "Wake up early, like at eleven or noon so I can take you to Mc'Donald's!" Me: "Okay Mom, I'll try," *goes to bed early, thinking I'll wake up at noon or one PM*
*wakes up at 9 AM*
Haha :pIve had to get up really early every day so even on days I don't work I still get up early.
It's super cold and there's snow on the ground today. On Sunday, our high is going to be sixty degrees and we're expected to get severe storms capable of strong winds and even tornadoes. Oh, Indiana weather.....go away.

I was mad about it because I went to bed super late, so I'm pretty tired still.
Aside from the tornados it sounds like Virigina. Except we got no snow.
There's a light sprinkling of snow on the ground right now. My middle brother was yelling about it this morning and I thought it melted by now, but nope.
Lowkey enjoying the Mod title battle happening in UU
My mom says she doesn't feel like taking me anywhere today!! And then she asks why I never look forward to anything-this is exactly why! Everytime I look forward to something, something bad always happens and gets in the way. Mom says she'll try to take me out for dinner instead of lunch, but I'm not holding her to that. But I bet she'll remember taking my middle brother out for lunch....
I imagine she will >:(
She says she doesn't want to go because her back hurts, but her back hurt on his birthday and she still took him out.
Wait and see if she still takes him out.
She probably still will. It's times like these where I wonder if she even wanted a daughter or not.
:( IT disgusts me she treats you like that.
It could always be worse.
That's true...but that doesn't make it right.
OMG I THREW UP IT'S ALL OVER THE FLOOR OH GOD WHAT DO I DO
CLEAN IT UP!
I DID
Ugh.....I feel so sick. Like, actual sick, not 'I shouldn't have eaten cheese again' sick
My baby brother's new favorite thing to do is randomly scream at the top of his lungs (view spoiler) Anybody want him? I'm starting the bidding at a thousand dollars. And by that, I mean I will pay YOU a thousand dollars to soften the blow of having to take care of him.
A bunch of people I follow on YouTube shared scenes or things from their childhood that scared them for Halloween. It's not Halloween anymore, but I still want to share my own personal ones. The first one was, there was an episode of Spongebob where Squidward goes into the past and meets prehistoric versions of Patrick and Spongebob. There was a scene where when he first sees prehistoric Patrick, he's breathing down Squidward's neck, and then it zooms in on his really creepy mouth. As a kid, that scene scared me so much I would run from the room five minutes before it even came on, and often skipped that episode on our DVD. My family still makes fun of me to this day for it. >.<
When I was a bit older and got into anime, there was a special episode of Sailor Moon I watched that centered on Uranus and Neptune and the former getting sick in a hotel room. The two are forced to fight off a creepy demonic puppet and his ventriloquist, who wants to eat the girls for dinner. That puppet scared me so badly. To this day I can barely watch that episode without getting chills. I know the puppet is a villain and was designed to be freaky, but....ulch!!! His voice, his design....everything about him just freaks me out!
My mom also makes fun of me because for the longest time, I was afraid of C-3PO from Star Wars. I hated the way his eyes looked, alright?! I hated how they were big and round and unblinking. Whenever people asked me why I hated Star Wars(my dad's side of the family were all huge Star Wars fanatics) I would always respond: "Because I'm scared of the big gold robot!"
I also remember being scared of the game Masters of Orion. It was this super old space game my dad used to play when I was really little. Like, it was so old, the graphics were in 8-bit, but I was still terrified of the aliens for some reason. Whenever Dad played it, I would refuse to go into the living room unless absolutely necessary.
I feel like that's it....everything I can remember anyway. It's a lot different from what ended up on peoples' lists, but hey, I didn't watch a lot of the same stuff other people did.
GoodReads is making me get up close and personal with the types of people I hate the most: Those people who think they're smarter and better than everyone else because they don't or do read a certain genera. Look, I know everyone has their favorite genera, we all have the one that we keep going back to, and that's perfectly fine. And we all have that one genera, or perhaps several, that we don't really like. And that's perfectly fine too. What pisses me off are those people who say crap like: "Unless you only read books published before 1896, you aren't worth the air I breathe!!!!"
There are several people on here whose opinions I don't take seriously, nor do I respect because half of their time is spent trashing genera that they don't like, insulting their fans and sometimes even the authors. I don't respect crap like that, at all.
There's one girl on here(she's older than me but I am referring to her as a girl and not a woman, because she acts no better than a child) who believes you are only credible if you read obscure FOREIGN-LANGUAGE titles. She thinks foreigners are the only ones who truly know how to write. I find that incredibly ironic, as foreigners are....humans!! And humans aren't perfect!!! So sometimes, foreigners write total garbage too!!! Wow, what a discovery!!! In fact, some of my most hated books have been written by foreign authors. She trashes YA lit and insults the authors, calling them names like 'Clam Chowder'. And okay, maybe that's a stupid example, but if people were insulting me and making jokes out of my name like that, I'd be super hurt.
There's another woman who thinks she's all smart just because she went to college and got a degree, which isn't even in anything writing or English-related. Yet she flaunts that college degree as if that makes her opinion matter more than anybody else's. She says she judges people based on how they've rated Harry Potter. Okay lady, you just lost all of my respect for you right there. That sounds incredibly petty to me. She thinks YA is a dead genera, but she keeps reading it????? Her review of the first Selection book made me so mad, I defended it!!!! And I never thought I'd defend The Selection in my life, ever!!!! But you know, for someone who seems so proud in your college education, you sure don't like to analyze and think about what you're reading, huh?
Those are only two examples, but there's plenty more that I've come across on this site. And nothing makes my blood boil more than self-entitled, pompous, 'smart' douchbags. An actual, smart, mature person would acknowledge that there's certain things they don't like that other people do, and they're fine with that.
There's a lot of genera I don't like that a lot of my friends on here do like. I could name titles and series and generas all day until the cows come home, and I would still have the same point to make: I am totally fine with them liking something that I don't, and it's the same for them. I don't go around insulting their tastes, calling their favorite author names, or saying their favorite book will 'rot their brain and turn them into gooey idiots' because even though I am intelligent, I still know that saying stuff like that gets us nowhere.
And.....this rant ended up being a lot longer than I originally wanted. I am NOT revealing the names of anybody I mentioned in this rant. I may not respect their opinions, but I still respect their privacy and will keep their identities a secret.
Seriously, I am just so tired of being called 'stupid', 'brainwashed', 'horny', 'impressionable', 'garbage', 'not worth listening to', 'cringeworthy', 'likely to fall into a toxic relationship', 'slutty', 'selfish', and 'my brain is so rotten, no wonder I love this stuff, it's the only thing I can actually process....because there is nothing to process' just because of stuff I like.
Please. Just stop. Nobody cares about your stupid fucking college degree that's not even in fucking English literature. And if they do, then congrats, they're as selfish, petty, and closed-minded as you.
I noticed a bunch of my friends on here now want to read The Silver Eyes after seeing me reading it and enjoying it. Should I tell them about the orgy scene in it?
Nahhhhh....that kinda stuff is way better to go into blindly.
Is GoodReads deleting books off my shelves? I keep having to relabel books on my 'to-read' shelf that randomly vanish

Evil puppets creeping you out is no big surprise. it'd be a bigger surprise if someone WASN'T creeped out by them!
I always likedthe droids, but I grew up with the Lego versions so they're different. Maybe try Star Wars content without C-3PO?
I've never played that game but have heard of it.
it's personal
