I'd assume Harry Potter. And according to dictionary.com, extant means in existence; still existing; not destroyed or lost

Losing friends because you don't want to be in a club anymore never helped anyone. Livejournal contact might be a good idea.

*cough* Please ignore the squeaky voice.
Happy B'Day! I give you several Nice Shiny Daggers, courtesy of Galadriel, a chocolate muffin, a kitten and a dartboard. Yes, those are Suepics on the face. Have at it!

To each their own. I certainly don't blame you for feeling guilty, though I wish you could stick around anyway. Still, 'tis up to you.

There are a number of characters I can completely agree are Suvian - but I don't let that bother me. (Doublethink, much?)
Honor Harrington, for instance. I sometimes say that she overcomes Sueness by excessive application of the Rule of Awesome, but that's not really the case. After all, one of the contributors to Suvianity is being awesome.
And to top that off, I couldn't even begin to tell you why I like Sue!Honor but not, for instance, the protagonist of the Truth series by Dawn Cook - a series I put down sometime in the third book specifically because I didn't like how Suvian she was becoming.
So, to conclude, while you're probably right about the list being a bad idea and feelings getting hurt, it's by no means inevitable.

It's been fun times, and I'm sure you will be greatly missed. I'll certainly miss you.

Bye bye, and I hope you do well with everything you want to achieve.

Have a Redeemer and a flak cannon. Long ranged thermonuclear destruction teamed with close range gut-shredding shrapnel rounds. What better?
Oh, and here's some bleepolate iced birthday cake as well.

Ah, but that's where miracles come in. Or, if you prefer, miracles masquerading as microevolution.
I'd tend to suspect that the horse was based on Methuselah's name anyway, if only because of the excessive similarity between them. And, after all, living 969 years is an impressive enough accomplishment that the name's crept out into our culture. The Wikipedia article has the following under "see also:"
# Back to Methuselah, a set of plays by George Bernard Shaw
# Methuselah Mouse Prize
# Methuselah (tree)
# "Requiem for Methuselah", an episode of Star Trek
# 2000 Year Old Man, a recurring Methuselah comedy routine by Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks.
# Methuselah's Children, a work of fiction by Robert A. Heinlein about long lived humans as a result of genetic selection.
# The Methuselah Factor, a book by Vernon Eric Bridges, a far-fetched story of longevity.
Might you be familiar with any of those?

Hi.
As much as I loved the PPC and chatting and writing and reading, I'm afraid I'm leaving.
Some of it's due to lack of time and energy, but part of it's on how... well, mean the PPC can be when looked at without the MarySue hate. I kind of... I dunno, feel guilty? :/ Does that make sense? Feeling guilty for being nasty to a person's character because it happens to fit the type of character I hate?
Err... I can't unpublish the GoogleDoc so I would greatly appreciate it if the links were erased?
And... that's pretty much it.
It was fun.
Thanks.

I'm sure I have no idea what you're talking about, Kit, no sir. Not me. I don't have any crazy cooking experiments that will turn the whole OFU on it's head planned, not at all. How could you even suggest such a thing?

This might be an odd question, but has anyone here played Killer 7? It's a pretty trippy fps game for the PS2 and Game cube that came out a few years ago. It's about a group of assassins with such a weird story that you might as well look it up on Wikipedia.
Anyways, the game was used in one of the best cross-over fics I've ever read. So here you go!

I tend to assume that fanfic writers are female ... by

... but for some reason I assumed that TS's author was male (which I apologise to her for even if I won't apologise for anything else). Possibly because about 75% of furries are gay men and that overrode the "90% of fanfic writers are girls" thing in my brain.

But what about the fangirls? by

I don't think THEY would have enough self restraint to not glomp. And I think the theory was that a fangirl created the multiverse's first (serious) Mary Sue.
