Something AMAZING happened today! My mother got in touch with her lost siblings, who she's been trying to find for MANY, MANY years! And she has four of them! It's so amazing, coming together after so many years of not knowing one another. I've just found out I have a 17 year old uncle... not thrilled about that part but -- It's brilliant all together! xD Just can't wait to meet everyone, though I'm a bit nervous.

Dude, this is so random but kinda awesome at the same time. I was woken up this afternoon by the phone ringing, and my house phone's caller ID reads itself out, right? So I was woken up to my phone saying, "Call from Watson, MJ". It totally made my day XD

Aww! :3 I have returned. Yes. I hope to do something. Since.... I am not doing ANYTHING on the VPN. AT ALL. But I have given up script writing all together. Except for my respective roles in the Outcasts....
Amin... why does it say GOD underneath your name?

Dude, I am on all kinds of rampages today. But I HATE cartoons these days, and the channels that air them. WHY do we have to censor freaking EVERYTHING that we put on TV?! I say this because I recently watched an episode of X-Men: The Animated Series that aired on some channel, can't remember what it was, but it was censored beyond belief. I know this because I watched the SAME EPISODE on Netflix the day before. It was ridiculous stuff, too. Stuff that was actually relevant to the plot as well. They did the same with Spider-Man: The Animated Series as well.
Even back then it was pretty bad, but now it's worse. Like, Gwen Stacy wasn't in SM:TAS because she would have had to die, and Fox Kids didn't want to put the death of a character on TV. They also didn't refer to blood as blood, instead they called it "plasma". I guess that's KIND of acceptable. Ridiculous, but acceptable compared to the things they censor these days. And if the episode has too much crap in it for them to censor, they simply refuse to air it.
Damn censorships. XD

Omg, cartoon censorship *eyeroll*
It's totally out of hand. I don't get this incessant need people have to coddle kids and protect them from everything. Um, I don't know about you guys but I was always getting cut up and bruised as a kid from playing outside, hence I knew exactly what blood was. Why is there a need to censor it? And character death? People die in real life, why not leave it in cartoons and use it a safe medium to teach kids how to deal with the loss of a loved one?
Censorship and 'political correctness' is getting so ridiculous -_-

God I KNOW right?! It's ridiculous and I'm tired of it. BACK IN MY DAY -dies- we didn't have that problem or at least it wasn't that bad. I watch cartoons nowadays and I just sit and think, "Really?"

When I have children I'm gonna buy DVDs of good shows I used to watch. I am not going to let them watch this crap that treats kids like they're stupid.
