Awww. I am a total lurker but I couldn't resist commenting after seeing this one on Latest Things just because I'm a major sucker for dogs. IDC about how they are forced to eat human meat because DOGS. ♥ It's not their fault they are owned by evil murderers. The killing of the dogs made me mad at Rorschach, honestly, even though I usually like him :|
Look, after the Ruffles post last week, I was already primed to be crushed just from the frickin' preview image. I clicked anyway. I knew SOMEthing was coming, I didn't know what. But I knew. And I read the whole thing with dread.
So the twist actually made me laugh. A bitter laugh, ala some of the most gloriously cruel TWILIGHT ZONE episodes, but a laugh nonetheless.

Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.

Date: 2010-07-09 05:34 pm (UTC)A good story well told, but... a little girl was kidnapped, brutally murdered, and fed to the dogs... and the sad thing is that the dogs died?
I'm not really feeling it. My sympathy is with the child instead.
