Hope Rides Alone

 So, tvtropes, one of my favorite places on the internet, has been going through some befuddling and irksome changes over the past couple of months. As I've been busy and the changes haven't been too inconvenient (YMMV pages, separating tropes that YMMV on to a different page ... eh, annoying but whatever.)

But now they're talking about DELETING PAGES. (Go here and vote!) Namely THE FETISH FUEL PAGES!!!!!!
FUCK NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

It upsets me greatly when ANYTHING online is deleted, especially whole pages, especially ones that bring me joy. 
Moving the 'Troper Tales' stuff to another website sounds like a good idea to me. Outright deleting all that stuff seems ... kinda drastic. What's going on? If you're offended by something you read in a Troper Tales page ... don't read something labeled 'Fetish Fuel.'

Do you have any idea how many shows/movies I've watched simply because of something I read on a Fetish Fuel page? I don't even know, I've stopped keeping track. I personally like to know what, ahem, excites other people. It's interesting to me. If I'm squicked, I move on. I don't start crying for the whole thing to be taken down because someone's fetish is disturbing to me. 

Does anyone know if saving a webpage means you really save it, so even if it's deleted it'll still be there on your desktop ... or does saving it as a 'Web Archive' mean you basically create a shortcut that will stop working once the original page is deleted? 'Cause if the Fetish Fuel pages are going, I'm SAVING as much as I possibly can in the limited free time I have. Actually, if saving something as a 'Web Archive' doesn't work, I would be willing to PAY PEOPLE MONEY to take screenshots or whatever to preserve the pages and e-mail those to me, if the Fetish Fuel pages are indeed going to be deleted, because I don't have a lot of free time right now.
Edit: saved all the pages that are relevant to my interests. Voted all I could. I'll try and do more tomorrow, right now I need to sleep.

So what if I'm a perv? At least I don't think I have the right to judge other people's fetishes. 

General Question:
So, there's this thing that's been bugging me since eleven this morning.
There's this show (or possibly a movie) where suddenly the story would pause and a title card would come up with '_____'s Story' with piano music and then we'd get the character's flashback. And I can't for the life of me remember what it's from! Help, please?


Hetalia Question:
What exactly is the current situation of Prussia? The official website says he's living with Germany (and was probably East Germany) but I swear I read on tvtropes that Prussia is living in Austria's house now. Which is it? This is totally not related to a fanfic I want to write about them occupying each other's vital regions with Hungary watching and/or joining in, I swear ...

Once again, my LJ message box has become swamped with stuff. Like, 120 pages of stuff. 1,972 messages. As I reply to comments via getting the links in my e-mail, I never delete the notifications from my LJ message box. Is there a quick and easy way to delete all the 'so and so left this comment: blah blah blah blah' WITHOUT clearing all the PMs out as well, or do I just have to do it manually, page by page?

I am at a loss. What do you guys want next in the 'High Voltage/Brutal/Eye of the Hurricane/Phoenix Arisen' series thingamajig?[Poll #1287010]
Again, here's the linkies to all the parts in the 'series' in order of how things happen

http://aunt-zelda.livejournal.com/90646.html#cutid1 – High Voltage: Elle and Claire form a partnership, with sexual tension in the mix.

http://aunt-zelda.livejournal.com/88827.html#cutid1 Brutal: a drabble bonus scene featuring Mohinder, Sylar, and the deaths of three semi-prominent characters.

http://aunt-zelda.livejournal.com/87001.html#cutid1 Eye of the Hurricane: Hiro is jumped by Adam. Naaaaaaaw.

http://aunt-zelda.livejournal.com/89758.html#cutid1 Phoenix Arisen: what ought to have happened in ‘Dying of the Light’ twisted to suit this verse.

P.S. If anyone thinks of a clever/witty/literary-allusion/awesome/decent title for this insanity of mine, please post that in a comment!

Could someone (or SEVERAL someones) look up and locate random pictures for silly Heroes reports I'm going to do? Here's what I need:

(Picture of the new Company Man)

(Picture of the spoon going gold)
