Thank you to the individual that pointed out that I was being trashtalked on this post. Raine, you are entitled to your opinion, and so am I. I've been through some serious fires in my lifetime, things that would curl your hair, but you won't know about them. Why? Because this is a website created to support an actor and his endeavors, not, as Katie put it, a Dear Abby column. If a person needs help, they should seek it in the appropriate channels. To throw a public fit and have a meltdown because someone tells them that to get over it is childish and ridiculous. Would you go to a hardware store and throw a tantrum in the aisle because they don't have birthday cakes in stock? I would hope not. If you've been abused, don't get on your huffybike because someone tells you that a fanclub isn't the appropriate place to talk about it. Go to an abuse traua community. They're out there, they're free, and you can google them. There always seems to be some kind of dramafest here. I didn't join this site in order to have this sort of thing in my face on a weekly basis. I'm sure someone will say "If you don't like it, don't click on it," and while that's a valid response, it's a response that applies to EVERYONE. If you don't like a post, don't look at it. If you're so incredibly offended that you have to browbeat a 16 year old girl until she cries and can't sleep, I think that says a hell of alot more about you than it does about the person who posted the offending material. I'm going to have to seriously consider whether or not this place is something I want my name associated with. Because right now, that answer is no.

The chatroom I created is separate from the website, and the link is http://xat.com/ZachPack Everybody's pretty much in bed right now, but if you do come in, the website will automatically assign you a goofy screenname. If you click on that name in the room list, it will open a window, and you can change your name to whatever you like. We prefer that you use the same username you have here, so that we know who's coming in. You don't have to, but you'll get asked by a mod who you are, if you don't. Please don't be offended, we're just trying to ensure that the ones who come in the room are members of this community. Hope to see you there sometime!

Like I said, Kyrie, you don't have anything to be sorry for.

You need to get it under control, sylock. Something bad happened to you. Either cope with it or don't, but DO NOT take your trauma and your issues out on a teenage girl that didn't actually do anything wrong. If you can't get help from your state or federal aid departments, then find a trusted friend to talk to. If you think that the purpose of trauma counseling is to make you feel bad about yourself, then you REALLY have things screwed up, because that isn't how it works. I don't know what country you're in, but in most of the world, there are places that you can go to get free trauma counseling. I'd be glad to give you some links and contact information. You have issues. Either get over them in a healthy way, or keep them to yourself. Don't take them out on other victims. How selfish.
Dude, Piney, speaking as a woman who suffered through incestuous rape from the ages of 9 until I was 14, I thought that picture was hilarious. You oversensitive dinks need to lighten the fuck up. If you're a rape victim that was offended by that, then you need to seek psychiatric help, because you are clearly still suffering from PTSD. You guys seriously need to get over yourselves.
Andrae, why must you always make a scene in front of my friends at the Red Lobster?

Last movie I saw was HP6, and I'm still not sure how much I liked it. Even as an avid reader who is extremely used to seeing her favorite books butchered in film, I'm pretty grouchy about the liberties that were taken. I don't want my money back, exactly, but I kinda wish I'd gone to the cheap matinee.

I maintain that this is the best video subject/song matchup of all time. And all of the chatters know how much I love the "Sex is on Fire" Zach vid...

I vowed to stop watching the show altogether. Even though I knew he died in the books, he's like my little ray of hilarious gay sunshine in Bon Temps, and the writers managed to do such a great job of creating his character onscreen so that he was neither a caricature nor slapstick. I laughed outright when he threw Tara over his shoulder and ran her out of the house. Askars is apparently 2 inches shorter than my brother, and 2 inches taller than my boyfriend. I would like very much to hug him, as tall men give great hugs to short girls.

According to IMBD, he's only 6'4. well... "only." But I've seen him in several other movies, and he ALWAYS slouches. So I wonder if he's undercutting his actual height to make himself more marketable. Either way, he and LaFayette are the reasons why I watch the show in the first place. I require more random Swedish, though. Eric makes it hawt.

I know it is! That's the one I'm painting for Katie as we speak. Major croppage and reduction had to occur to get it to fit convincingly on the page. Watched Trueblood last night and honestly, I found the bedroom scene with Sookie to be far more uncomfortable than Erik crying. I was too busy noticing that even when he's on his knees, he was only about 8 inches shorter than Gideon.

Pretty sure that only works if you're using wifi
Yes, you are. Thailand is on the other side of the world. Daytime in America is night time there, and vice versa. We're all just now waking up and voting, while they're going to bed. Chill out. It's not even halfway through the first day yet.
HAHAHAHAHA Mina! Whitwicky might have an issue with that... it's her day in the rotation...

I felt like I should read the comment that was made before I got into this conversation... both sides of the story and all that crap, and I think either I read what that poster said differently than everyone else, or that you might have missed the point. It sounded like they had an issue with you calling your photoshops original paintings. We all do photo retouches... I do recolors, fen does recolors... it's one of the community hobbies. I don't think the issue was with the act of photoshopping so much as saying "this is an original piece I did", or implying that a photoshop retouch is anything other than that. Like I said, I could e wrong, but that's how it read to me.

I'll tell you a WTF that is currently plaguing the chat room... why are tied up hot celebrity men so much hotter than not tied up hot celebrity men? This all began with discussion on how Ryan Reynolds is best served with a side of shirtless-and-chained-to-the-floor-by-vampires.

Quiet you! I'm watching that episode tonight! NO SPOILERS! We recently had this conversation in chat. I find Alexander Skarsgard to be hotter than the surface of the sun, despite his obvious handicap of being blonde.
