OMG SO COOL!

[tripperfunster]

Ahahahha! duva just informed me that my Kock/Spork art was IN THE LARGEST SWEDISH NEWSPAPER TODAY!

How effin cool is that?? pdf link You have to scroll down to page 5. I babylfished the article, and couldn't make much sense of it, other than how people have slashed the two all along and how TOS practically encouraged it. And at the end, the writer of the article invites people to BRING ON THE CHEKOV SLASH! teehee!

Man, I am so chuffed! Thanks so much, duva for linking me!

You would NEVER see a NYTimes article with your Spirk art in it. AND it mentions LOADS of (totally PRONTASTIC) fics.... many of which I have READ! SO COOL!!!!!!
Sweden, man..... awesome. AWESOME.

:gleeeeee: Now THAT is really totally cool ^_^ I wish I could read the article. I can sort of figure out what it is about but not really read it. It is more like guess work. I also think it is really cool that they have an article about slash in the paper. I am always happy when I find something about slash and fanfics in the paper - especially when the writer shows that he/she is a fan and knows what he/she is talking about or has enough respect to do a proper research to get the facts and lingo straight =)


Congratulations honey! :hugs:

You're very welcome! I'm actually surprised they didn't ask you before printing it... I had a quick look at the web version (doesn't include your image, sadly) and the Google translation is... well, it's understandable, at least:

[accioslash.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha! Awesome! Um, assuming you want regular people seeing your art. I'm really weird about that kind of thing for myself.

[glockgal.livejournal.com]

OMGGGGGGGGG that's both crazy and awesome!!! XD XD XD XD How cool is that! Also, it looks FAB.

Also, oh man, pennswoods' name - it's too bad they didn't cut off the picture so her name wouldn't be shown all there, commenting to 'Kock', heh.

I should get reallyreally to translate it - I wonder if he's seen the paper yet?? XD

OMG THAT IS SO INCREDIBLY AWESOME YAY!!!! *jumps with joy for you*

[xenafox.livejournal.com]

O_O Holy cow, gettin in the newspaper? That is some cool shit!

[alisanne.livejournal.com]

Wheeeee! You're AWESOME! *glee*

[1scout.livejournal.com]

Wow! You are getting so famous! And to think I can say that I knew you when!
You deserve any recognition you get, big time!

[joanwilder.livejournal.com]

Omg! (bork bork!). It's so exciting!

[kerosinkanister.livejournal.com]

Congrats That's very cool.

You're the first friend who's had K/S published in a Swedish newspaper!

[venturous1.livejournal.com]

that's so wild! and a screen shot of your actual journal too.
you ARE famous in Sweden!

a freind of mine sings a funny song called "famous in France" -- perhaps I will filk it for you. ;-)

[drusillas-rain.livejournal.com]

that's awesome ^_^

[zofie123.livejournal.com]

Haha, I read that article yesterday, and it blew my mind. Would you like me to translate it for you?

[corvus-coronis.livejournal.com]

That is way cool!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

That is so kind of you! I *think* someone did it over on newtrekslash http://community.livejournal.com/newtrekslash/86115.html#cutid1

It seems well translated, but obviously, I can't be sure.

Do you live in Sweden? Because I would really love an actual paper copy of that page. I asked Duva, but she didn't have a copy, and I even emailed the writer of the article, but she has yet to write back.

If you *could* get a copy for me, I'd be forever in your debt, and would gladly pay you back for any shipping costs.

Thanks again for the offer, I really appreciate it!

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

thanks! Yeah, it totally made my day WEEK! *bounces*

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Should I change my journal title from "Mistress of Squick" to "Internet phenomenon"??? or is that too subtle? ;p

I'm sure it doesn't translate exactly like that. (I mean, the words probably do, but I doubt the meaning is exactly the same.)

*struts anyway* :D

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

Yeah, Canada is fairly gay-friendly, but we don't exactly CELEBRATE teh gay in our newspapers or anything.

How cool is Sweden???

[tripperfunster.livejournal.com]

It is!!! Thanks so much!
