Generation Kill Genderswap AU
part one/two

Man I cannot get behind ANY of this.

Except LiLo.

Also, way to s

man do you realize how tumblr works? when you write something on someone’s post, it shows up on their dashboard, and this is just rude, because this took an exponential amount of time for alex and i to cast and for alex to make the photoset, and tbqh, i don’t really care if you like our casting or not because it’s ours, not yours. have all the opinions you want, but have the courtesy not to be rude about things that people have worked hard on, or at least to keep to the tags where it doesn’t show up on our dashboards? and while you’re at it, go ahead and unfollow me.

You do realise how Tumblr works: people reblog your work and add their thoughts. Try saying something a teeny bit controversial and see how many reblogs you get calling you a cunt and telling you to kill yourself, then you’ll understand “rude”. 

Also, man, how come only white characters? 

Maybe because real life gets in the way of making gifs sometimes? Ruhi’s busy with school, and I’m juggling both work and university.

What I really don’t appreciate is the insinuation that we’re somehow racist.

We’ve casted most of the main characters of Generation Kill, and let’s be real here, Gabe and Poke (who we’ve casted) are only POC characters who speak for more than four or five lines. Sure, we’ve also got Baptista, Dirty Earl, Holsey, and Bodley, but they’re even more minor characters. What you need to realise is that GK is a series about First Force Recon during the invasion of Iraq, and the ethnic composition of the Marine Corps (actually, try all of the armed forces) are predominantly white.

Asking why we don’t have more POCs fancasted would be akin to asking why we didn’t genderswap any female characters. It’s not because we don’t want to, it’s simply because they’re not there.

I’m going to leave the fact that you don’t agree with our casting alone, because you know what? You’re entitled to that. What we’re entitled to is a degree of indignation, because it might be the internet, but we spend time on things, and shit hurts, man. Nobody’s forcing you to reblog it if you don’t like it, or don’t agree with it.

I’d just like to remind everyone that my original remark was: “Man I cannot get behind ANY of this.”

That shit hurts, man.

Oh my god the flounce can be seen from space.

But really. 

Braylyn? Braylyn. 

Just. No. 

breaking news: morons getting mad about really dumb shit, details at eleven

I’ve never watched GK so I can’t comment on that, however my nerdknickers are getting in a bit of a twist over “exponential amount of time” and “casted”. Exponential refers to a very rapid increase, so it doesn’t make sense in the phrase “exponential amount of time”. And the simple past form of the verb to cast is cast not casted.

Today I am feeling petty, vindictive and educational.
