Marriage in 2D --- AKA Pines' Deepest Fantasy Come To Light (2D Husband List Part 1)

Bitches, brace yourselves!

An awesome Japanese dude, Taichi Takashita has a brilliant idea of starting a campaign to allow marriages between humans and cartoon characters. He launched an online petition aiming for one million signatures to present to the government to establish a law on marriages with cartoon characters.

Within a week he has gathered more than 1,000 signatures through the Internet.

I am no longer interested in three dimensions. I would even
like to become a resident of the two-dimensional world,
" he
wrote
.
"However, that seems impossible with
present-day technology. Therefore, at the very least, would it be possible to
legally authorise marriage with a two-dimensional character?

He didn't enlist his contact details so it's impossible to reach him for comments if his campaign was for real. The people who signed his petition were true believers however.

For a long time I have only been able to fall in love with
two-dimensional people and currently I have someone I really love,"
one
person wrote. "Even if she is fictional, it is still loving someone. I would
like to have legal approval for this system at any cost.

Very sane.

Mangas and animes are so popular in Japan that they had their own culture, more popularly known as the Otakus. Fictional characters became celebrities and even sex symbols. Their marriage is on a decline though, because many young Japanese find it difficult to find partners.

I swear, not a day ever goes by when the Japanese are not doing anything that's bat-shit crazy. Gawd, I love them.

I could relate to this actually. The first time I saw Jughead finish a dozen burgers, I lost my heart and thought, "This is it. This is the man for me". Sure, I was nine, but Jughead won't care. He's going to wait for me like a true prince charming. Hell, he already has his own crown.

Now that this issue has finally come to light, I wondered why I didn't thought of this. I've been lusting after 2Ds my whole life. If Taichi's petition would push through, I'm moving to Japan. So I made a list of my potential husbands.

Excluding Jughead. I guess we're better off as friends. We'll always be having a blood bath over who gets the last slice of pizza. We'd be divorced in 2 days.


My Potential Husband List (in no particular order):


GAMBIT


There must be something about the water in New Orleans.

Born in New Orleans, Louisiana as Remy LeBeau, Gambit was perhaps the hottest member of X-Men as far as I'm concerned. Cyclops may be the well known heartthrob among the mutants but he's just too handsome. Wolverine is just too short and too erratic. Beast is well, too blue. Bobby Drake is rich and handsome and charming but he lacked attitude.

Gambit is perfect. He is handsome, but in a scruffy homeless way. I have a thing for the homeless look. He is a natural born charmer but he also has that aura of danger. The sort who would rip your clothes off and go down on you in a dark alley with no hesitation whatsoever.

The first time I saw Gambit hurl his card with
that smirk on his face, I knew right then, that I'll never go for the clean-cut gentlemen with impeccable table manners. I am a Bad Boy's Woman for life. This was sixteen years ago. No sign of wavering whatsoever. My heart still belongs to the Cult of the Unshaven.



URAHARA KISUKE



A "mere honest, handsome, perverted businessman."

Yep, that's my Urahara-Sama. The one who meddles in everybody's life when he gets bored.

I admit, at first glance you couldn't see the hotness immediately since his face is always covered with his bucket hat, but the moment he opens his mouth...Byakuya-who? His speech is always polite but it's laced liberally with sarcasm.

There's nothing quite sexier than a 6-ft, unshaven, blonde-haired manipulative, sarcastic guy with grayish-blue eyes who is a bit unhinged. The bucket hat may be terrible and flamboyant with its green and white stripes but not unlike Slash (my ex-boyfriend), it is a very important aspect of his look. Sure, it looked stupid but it's also his way of casting a shadow on his face, making it difficult for another person to see his eyes and therefore much easier for him to conceal his feelings and his motives. Which is pretty scary, if you really thought about it.

Hell, he's the former captain of the 12th division. That alone should give us a clue of his personality. He was the one who got that crazy ass Mayuri (the current insane captain) out of prison to serve under him. In fact, all the chaos in Soul Society was all his doing. He invented the Hogyoku, after all. Without him, there would be no awesomeness that is the Vizards.

If we ever get hitched, I will never be bored nor hungry. Urahara is a businessman and he is witty, he would keep me on my toes the entire time. And there is another bonus.

I could borrow his geta.




KURORO LUCIFER





Perhaps the m
ost fashionable of the bunch, my old love Kuroro Lucifer.


He can be seen wearing a black coat with a white fur collar over a shirt with gold criss-cross, accessorized with a pair of "blue-ball" earring and strappy boots. Others can say what they want about the outfit but I dare say Marc Jacobs would totally go for this ensemble. To further cement his individual style, he has a cross tattooed on his forehead.


He is handsome, intelligent, cultured and charismatic.

But don't let his looks deceive you. He is also deceitful and manipulative. He gets whatever he wants despite the cost. Sure, he may cry for a fellow comrade but he could also orchestrate a massacre of thousands without batting an eyelash---Just so he could have first dibs on antique books. A man after my own heart. He may spend his time flirting with you, the next thing you know, he's slitting your throat. Ah, danger.

Also, he likes books, believes in the existence of one's soul and he could run on walls. He would be handy during the rush hour.

Perhaps this quote could summarize his personality:

"The situation I am in now is just like taking an afternoon coffee break in a cafe. Nothing has changed." (Spoken while Kurapika is torturing him)



ULQUIORRA SCHIFFER



Any relation to Claudia? I don't know.


What I do know is that he's the fourth-ranked Espada
with a melancholic appearance, short, messy black hair, silver skin, and green eyes with slit pupils. Cyan lines descend from his eyes, making it appear as if he is crying.

If Gambit is always smirking, Urahara giggling and Kuroro, smiling, Ulquiorra is fucking frowning most of the time. If he wasn't, his
face is just blank. Devoid of any emotion.

He appears to be very cold, aloof, brooding, and callous, but he's not particularly violent. He only fights if his boss orders him to or unless it is absolutely necessary. He reminds me of Heathcliff, except less emo.

If you look closely, Kuroro and him looked kind of similar. I have a pattern. But there would be trouble in paradise if we're ever to become involved. He has a thing for seeing is believing and I believe in damn near everything. I could foresee an upcoming argument over the existence of fairies. And there is that habit of stabbing people on the chest. It has got to go. Else, I'd be cooking bacon one morning and if it isn't crispy enough for him, boom! knife in my heart. Not good.



CHAR AZNABLE

The Red Comet.

He earned this name when he single-handedly sinked five Federation Magellan-class battleship during the Battle of Loum.

Which is so kickass!

As with the others, Char is also manipulative and he never hesitates to get dirty when his own personal gain is on the line.

He is an extremist who advertises in red, wears mask and sunglasses, shrouded with mystery and blonde---which is a bad thing because I don't like blondes in general. Except him and Urahara. He makes up for it by being the main kick ass antagonist in Gundam.

I just think of my potential children. They would be so beautiful and smart and rich, if Char and I end up together.

The only drawback to our relationship is that he's such a big celebrity in Japan. Almost a god, in fact. But I keep an open-mind. Char is loyal beneath all that ruthless exterior, he would never betray me with simpering fan girls.

And then there is that rumor that he couldn't drive a car. But that's okay, I can deal with that because hey, who needs a fuckin' Maserati when you have Mobile Suits anyway?

Exactly.


### Just five for now. This is turning out to be a lot of work. Will post some more of my potential husband list next time I'm feeling energetic. You better believe there's more of this shit from where I was sitting.

Now, excuse me. I'm gonna go look for that campaign and sign myself in. Keanu's not getting any better. I have more chances with these 2D dudes.

Big Nose Bought A Castle

...And horses.

Yes. Fuckin' fairy tale shit for his girlfriend of two years, Elsa Pataky. Elsa who? Exactly. I don't know a damn thing about her either. I googled her some and found out that she's a Spanish actress and starred in Snakes On A Plane and that apparently, she looks quite good in a bikini.

How did I know this? Hello! magazine featured this fuckery.

To enlarge...

Did I mention that a tractor goes with it?

True Love is poison

Adrien: [to Elsa, squeezing her hand] Do you remember when we were at a party in Cannes, and a woman sitting behind us told us, “Thank you for making me believe in love again”? We both feel really blessed to have found someone that we not only love, that we are deeply attracted to, but also who shares similar views on life. Elsa has brought so much positive energy into my life.

Excuse me while I go barf!

Every Beginning Is A New Sequel

…And the book of events is always open half-way through.

(Naks! Do I even know what I’m talking about? ^_^ )

Before anything else, I would like to welcome myself (hehehe...) on what I would now refer to as my “new home”, where I could rant however I want without the additional worry of anyone I know finding out about it. Like the time when I told my ex-boss in my old blog to “eat shit” or some such and he had read it. Then we saw each other. All kinds of awkward looks commence, I tell you.

And yes, to vent out my ten-year-unrequited-love-that-no-one-knew-about. Quite deluded of me to think, nee, hope!–that something might actually come of it, when in truth, he hates me like the Arabs hate the Jews and would likely vote for death penalty should I get caught jaywalking. Everytime I see him I’m at the verge of having a mild stroke…of suppression. Because, really, who wants to be painted as a masochist? Not me. Sincerely. Even if all evidence points to the contrary.

I’ll bring out the beer and coffee crumble ice cream now to celebrate the new era of whines. Not that I needed a reason to bring out the above mentioned. My friend commented on the absurdity of eating ice cream with beer, and I told her to at least try it once and she’ll know why I love the combination.

Now instead of buying chichirya, we buy ice cream. ^_^


Let the whining commence!
