you know of who I speak

Most fucked up thing of the day: seeing the lovely Pro-Anorexia community, complete with a jack ass post about how someone wants to be as thin as a House Elf. Gods above, I hope that was just a nicely twisted joke. The whoel thing is rather creepy, a combination of people with genuine sadness, and that moronic brand of folk who write as if they've learned language from AOL chatrooms.

I went to a bunch of pro ana and 'mia comms to inspire me and as for research for Narci. Thinspiration is what disturbs me the most. Those stupid, skinny famous people flaunting themselves as if they were any more attractive than a toothpick are only inspirational to girls that want to starve themselves to be pretty. How can those women live with themselves?

And... well, can you blame them for wanting to look like Dobby? He's so sexy! His wrinkled skin. His buggy eyes. His flappy ears... *le sigh*

Hehe. Oh yes, because we're all swooning after that Elf. Good lord.

I agree, the whole "nothing tastes as good as thin feels" thing is more than a bit creepy, and rather pitiful. I bet none of those girls have tasted Orion's Milenka bars. They throw that argument right out the window!

this is totally out of the blue.

but you have funny user icons. Which made me think you'd find the concept of the tricorn hat award community (http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=tricorn_award) amusing. Unfortunately the community is not really active and is mostly a place where LJ pranksters sit around and laugh about stuff. But still, the "sexy men funny hats" icon reminded me of it.
