I'm boooored. *pokes the internet* Somebody entertain meeee! I hate work. Haaaaate!

[ETA] I tried doing that "You know you're reading a story by me thing, and so far I've come up with:

1. It's more than probably either slash, or pre-slashy gennishness;
2. It will involve people who, canonically, either hate each other's guts, or don't have any actual interaction at all;
3. Either that, or Weasleys and/or that Lee Jordan fellow;
4. Woobification of Big Dangerous characters likely occurs;
5. If it's het, it's creepy;
6. It's dialogue-heavy;
7. There's lots of attempts at wit, or at the very least lines that are all but jumping up and down, waving their arms and shouting "QUOTE ME OMG QUOTE MEEEE WHY WON'T YOU QUOTE ME I'M FUNNY AREN'T I?";
8. There will be a decided lack of porn;
9. If there is porn, it's all wannabe-literary;
10. There's almost a year between the "start" date in the headers and when it's actually posted.

Anyone else wanna add something? :D [/ETA]

[ETA2] Oh, god. Today's Icon Of The Day:

So fucking true.

And why are my co-workers talking about "the real cheese"? I think perhaps I need to brush up on my French. o_O [/ETA2]

A smorgasbored (HA!) of fannishness

Movies and TV shows I need to download because I cannot afford to rent:

• The Breakfast Club, because I am a bad, bad Eighties Child for not having seen this yet!)
• Evita. Mmm, Antonio Banderas so hot.
• Dungeons and Dragons What? It's been, like, two months since I last saw it!
• Assorted Muppets episodes, because the Muppets rule!
• Serenity, so I can finally read and understand the spoilery fics.
• Dr Who, especially the Christmas ep, cause I've not seen that yet, and I need to research. For PORN!
• 21 Jump Street. What? Johnny Depp!
• Hell, while I'm on an Eighties kick, I wonder if I can find the Blues Brothers movies.
• That movie where eighteen-yo Adam Baldwin plays an adorable muppet, aw. Whatsit? Something with a bodyguard. [ETA] Aha! It's called My Bodyguard, and you can find caps here. Dialuppers, beware. Also, contains Matt Dillon.) [/ETA]

Any additions, anyone? Or maybe I'll just watch and recap more Firefly, and after that, it's high time for another LotR:EE marathon, but and then I'll go to sleep and dream weird crossover dreams again, after which I'll have to shoot myself in the fucking face.

Which reminds me, speaking of Firefly, that I really need to figure out what the fuck is wrong with me that I keep getting into fandoms years after they've gone off the air. No, seriously. People kept trying to get me into Firefly back when it was actually on the air, and I just kept going "Cowboys in space¹? The fuck?" Possibly because I was busy porning with the underaged bespectacled wizard crowd, but still. It went off the air, time passes, the movie comes out, people try to rope me in so I can go see the movie on the big screen and goto the premiere and have a big collective fandom experience², but I was still going "Cowboys in space¹? The fuck?" And then suddenly, it was as if the time since its cancellation had reached critical mass or something, and wham. "Cowboys in space¹? Wicked!" I need help, is what I need. When I was over at yonmei's a few weeks back, they kept trying to get me into SGA--a mission which ruby_fruit has been failing at for months, now. Like I told them, "Once it goes off the air, wait about two years. Then come back to me. Trust me, I'll love it then."

¹ My fingers keep wanting to type that as "Gay cowboys in space." Er.
² You know, I had a moment of self-anger because most of the cast was at the Edinburgh premiere, and I could have met them, but on retrospect, I don't think i would have survived meeting Adam Baldwin's arms in person. And I don't think the security people would have appreciated my trying to stuff Summer Glau down my shirt and taking off with her.

I know, I should be writing, but I just spent two hours faffing about on the internet, reading old metaquotes posts, and poking my co-workers with a plastic pitch fork. Yuo really don't want to know what my brain would produce right now.

And now, the episode that breaks me, a lot: ( Ariel )

Okay, now that I'm partially recovered: ( War Stories )

A quickie, but there's naked and there's a resolution type thing for Ariel: ( Trash )

Last one for tonight, I think: ( The Message )
