I'm grumpy, frustrated, so not wanting to deal with people right now. But I don't know if hunting for fic is even worth it.

Why, why is purple prose getting so popular these days?

I just want to read a some fic that doesn't make my head hurt with so much... flowery and descriptions that don't even make sense.

The "andate a la mierda humanidad" tag is not about this. It's about white rich cis liberals. Always. In any part of the world. So don't ask.

I've given up on fic, or 'direct fic' at any rate. I think scanlations of manga should count a bit like fic, given that the translators put their spin and interpretation on things.

I'm finding all Asian worlds more comforting than all white ones. But wow on the flowery descriptions. Though I got accused of bringing the purple prose in a discussion with someone who I thought was bringing privilege to a conversation. So my 'sometimes you don't need it that pretty' may not seem 100% to you.

loool, you are so right about that.

No, look, I like pretty prose. But there is pretty and there is... ugh. You know when you can't even follow what the hell is going on because reading the descriptions takes effort.

Like:
One day he stood on the newly erected stands, flimsy metal poles standing scant and half-formed about the squint and dug-up football pitch. They’d last a few games between the schools at the very least, these tall and unsettling metal bars.

You are describing those American football bar-things! And those aren't even relevant to the story! And it's not even that, it's when every sentence is like that.

And I have read so much like that lately.

.... wth the "your flowery prose debunks your argument about my privilege"? What. And I thought I have heard all the stupid arguments when talking about privilege.

Why, why is purple prose getting so popular these days?
NaNo starts/started today and it's a way to fill the numbers? *goes into hiding --but hugs you first*

lol, no sé. Puede ser. Dios. /se agarra la cabeza con dolor

Ve a recostarte ;_;

Nah, dolor de cabeza metaforico. Es un dolor de cabeza tener que tratar de entender que pasa entre tanto firulete. XD

Falta de buen gusto, obviamente. >.>

What fandom are you searching fic for?

CLAMP? Tsubasa? Anything? God, I don't know, I even read fics of fandoms I'm not into. XD

My delicious. Fandom, Genre, Rating, Pairing/Characters is where it's likely to be more fanfic, if it helps?

Jajaja, gracias Nina! :)
