Guh?

Okay. I was weirded out and amused when I found there were a bunch of freaking Minesweeper fanfics in the games section of ff.net.

But what is up with the 104 Dance Dance Revolution fanfics???

Okay, done fooling around on the computer. Kitchen floor is clean. Time for bed.

Edit: This wouldn't disturb me quite so much if there weren't more DDR and Minesweeper game fanfics than there are for some games that have something resembling a plot. Games like StarTropics and Monkey Island that actually had characters and a plotline have maybe a handful of stories. Don't these people have better things to do with their time?

I followed the link, read a couple of stories...

...still don't believe it.

There *was* Minesweeper porn before the great porn cull over at ff.net - NOT that I read it (I didn't; I value my eyes); I was looking for the most disturbing porn I could find on ff.net. Oddly, Minesweeper porn didn't win. (A friend found Big Bird doing...well I can't remember who he was doing but it was disturbing and not the natural order of things at all.)

Ok, initially, I was amazed when Mandi commented on the Minesweeper fanfic.

And then I was amazed at the Dance Dance Revolution fanfic.

But this takes the cake. How do you write Minesweeper porn . . . oh, never mind, I just don't want to know. Brain go boom.

*giggles* Sorry. I have a VAGUE feeling that I did look at one, but it's right up there with Transformer and Bucky O'Hare smut: Something that just shouldn't be done.

Dance Dance Revolution = The arcade game with the foot pads where you have to mimic the steps that the game does in time to win. You see them a lot in arcades, and I've only played one once (and I sucked at it).

Needless to say, it's still very popular, but writing fanfic for it? Ummm... no.

I think this would be a resounding no...

Minesweeper. My mind is totally, totally blown. I wonder if anybody on ff.net writes fanfic about ball bouncing, or thumb twiddling...

*shakes head* Minesweeper. Well, if anybody actually gets some fabulous recognition for that, would you mind pointing it out?
