kleenexwomanToday was quite nice; I'm being more social in a few days up at college than I was all summer. Hung out with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
diraskyria at the Kaya and had a lovely long talk. Also went up to see if Brian's friend Amber was home, but she was not. Other than that, day has been fairly uneventful. I snuck my first dorm sandwich of the year up to my room. It's bologna and white cheese with dijon mustard on an onion roll. That's all they had at the lunch counter. Bleeeeah...but it's food, and I'll need that soon.
From last night:
I wanted to go to bed early tonight, because I was tired. But it is not to be. At the time I'm typing this, it's about 2 in the morning. College students are hooting like howler monkeys right under my window. Two vehicles with sirens have come by in the past hour. One police car, one fire truck. It's a little exhilarating; maybe there will be a riot.
So in the meantime I'm filling out surveys. I got these fromghostgecko.
What do you think ofthatnoise's family?
Totally insane, all of them. Madder than cut snakes. And ugly to boot.
When's the last time you sawvicfitz82?
Last spring before school got out, at the Kaya. We talked about things and had hot drinks.
What isdiraskyria's favorite band?
Oh, what is that one dessert...pie? Torte? Trifle? It'll come to me...they give it to you on birthdays and put candles on it. It's on the tip of my tongue, I swear...no, that's ramen noodles. CAKE. Mmm...cake.
What will bejosephwaldman's last words?
Probably a humorous quotation about death from P.J. O'Rourke or Matt Groening.
What animal doesevillunch most remind you of?
A little yellow French bulldog.
Ifruon and ghostgecko were superheroes, which one would be the sidekick?
ruon would be less of a superhero than a sympathetic antihero, like the Question crossed with Max Cohen from Pi. ghostgecko would be the sidekick who encourages his quixotic missions so that he can turn them into an ongoing serial story to amuse his friends with.
Isnyghtshayde best described as a badger, a mushroom, or a snake?
A badger, because she is cute and warm and furry and eats nuts and berries and digs burrows in the ground.
Why isherbert_west sneaking up behind you right now?
OH MY GOD DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO KILL ME DON'T MAKE ME A ZOMBIE PLEASE I DON'T LIKE THE TASTE OF BRAINS
How many licks woulddrworm take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?
The world may never know. Of course, if by "licks" you mean "fics," and if by "Tootsie Pop" you mean "pairing," then the number is unlimited.
What habit doespinglederry have that you think they should give up?
Reading during someone else's inept seduction. It's terribly alluring, of course. But it's a sad thing to have to throw a poor, innocent book across the room just so you can kiss someone's neck without interference.
Survey can be found here: Random questions about your friends to answer.
Fandom: Back to the Future
One True Pairing Ship: George/Marty!
Favorite Canon Ship: George/Lorraine. They're just so cute.
If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork: The entire third movie. God, I hated it.
You are one sick bastard: Everyone tells me this.
I dabble a little: Marty/Lorraine. Just to piss people off.
It's like a car crash: Flaming Trails's "Dark Half." Why randomly make up an evil twin when you could have an evil doppelganger from a parallel dimension?
Tickles my fancy but not sold quite yet: Doc/George. Someone write this so I can love it, OK?
Makes no canon sense but why the hell not: George/Marty/Lorraine threesome. Eeee.
Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it: Wallet Guy. Who the fuck cares?
When all is said and done: There are only two other writers in this fandom consistently worth reading.
Fandom: Askewniverse
One True Pairing Ship: Jay and Silent Bob!
Favorite Canon Ship: Jay and Silent Bob. It is canon.
If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork: Kevin Smith converting to Scientology.
You are one sick bastard: Me? Look at the canon. It's five movies of dick jokes!
I dabble a little: But I don't write in the fandom any more, or at least I haven't for a long time.
It's like a car crash: The Askewniverse section on FFN. Concentrate on the Yahoo list. (Ooh, new "Year Of" fic up!)
Tickles my fancy but not sold quite yet: Jay/Randall. Cute, but they only annoy each other.
Makes no canon sense but why the hell not: "Dogma" as a religious hallucination experienced by Jay after an overdose. (Yeah, I'm reaching...but the nature of canon in Askewniverse is pretty elastic.)
Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it: "Chasing Amy." Wasn't funny. Wasn't heartwarming.
When all is said and done: I still don't know what "snoochie boochies" even means.
Fandom: Preston/Child Thrillers
One True Pairing Ship: Pendergast/D'Agosta!
Favorite Canon Ship: Nora/Margo platonic girlbonding.
If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork: Viola and Pendergast getting, like, married.
You are one sick bastard: Diogenes/Aloysius. Creepy insane brother incest is hawt--and, even better, really interesting.
I dabble a little: Tarot cards!
It's like a car crash: Which is why I haven't seen The Relic, even though it is available at my local Blockbuster's.
Tickles my fancy but not sold quite yet: Preston & Child's non-Pendergast books. Maybe sometime when I'm bored and can't wait for the next book to come out yet.
Makes no canon sense but why the hell not: Smithback/Pendergast. I like Smithback.
Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it: To the Batcave, Constance.
When all is said and done: Someone needs to write some Preston/Child RPS already.
Fandom: Re-Animator
One True Pairing Ship: Dan/Herbert!
Favorite Canon Ship: Dan/The Bride. Kind of.
If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork: And donate them to medical science.
You are one sick bastard: I think zombies in love are cute.
I dabble a little: But I haven't been able to make my own zombies yet.
It's like a car crash: The inevitable death or dismemberment of Dan's girlfriends. He just wants someone to love...(emo tear)
Tickles my fancy but not sold quite yet: Dr. Hill/Herbert. Someone mentioned this once.
Makes no canon sense but why the hell not: The Necronomicon! It is Miskatonic, after all.
Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it: "Move Your Dead Bones." I downloaded the music video. It's annoying.
When all is said and done: Zombies are totally homoerotic!
Fandom: House
One True Pairing Ship: House/Wilson in a semiplatonic fashion, because the fics that are just this side of romance are more interesting than the smut.
Favorite Canon Ship: House/Cameron. It's weirdly cute.
If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork: I'm going to miss the show every week because I have a class that runs really late on Tuesdays. DAMN AND BLAST.
You are one sick bastard: I squirm at the icky bits sometimes. Don't tell anyone.
I dabble a little: House/Re-Animator crossover. Someday.
It's like a car crash: I can see this fandom going the way of "Smallville"...snarky smut, technically in-character, that's fun to read but is all the same.
Tickles my fancy but not quite sold yet: Foreman/House or Chase/House. Cute, but I just don't see it.
Makes no canon sense but why the hell not: Ducklings? Will they follow me along the beach if I give them stale bread?
Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
lilhouse. A little too cutesy for me.
When all is said and done: It's the only medical show I can stand watching.
Fandom: Real Person Slash (misc. celebrities)
One True Pairing Ship: Danny Elfman/Tim Burton!
Favorite Canon Ship: This completely defeats the purpose.
If this happens I'll stab my eyes out with a spork: Crispin with another damn girlfriend.
You are one sick bastard: "Lew, why don't you show Crispin one of those nice stories you wrote, eh?"
I dabble a little: My ex-boyfriend cheated on me with David Bowie, so I left him in 1974.
It's like a car crash: When you find an RPS online community that has Tim Burton using J-Lo as a beard.
Tickles my fancy but not quite sold yet: Crispin/just about anyone. He just doesn't seem like a good half of an OTP. Wild sex, yes...
Makes no canon sense but why the hell not: The "Nice Hair" webcomic. Why are they living in the same house? Who cares? It's funny.
Everyone else loves it but I just don't feel it: LotRiPS. (Is the capitalization right?) Saw bits and pieces of the movies, didn't even finish the book series. Am not particularly infatuated with any of the actors, besides having a certain vague affection for Ian McKellan.
When all is said and done: It's not libel if you say it's all pretend. And celebrities are practically fictional characters, anyway.
ETA: What the hell is wrong with my Yahoo Messenger? Every time I try to IM someone, it kicks me off and says there's a problem. And I can't even tell what the problem is because all my error messages are in size zillion font and take up half the screen. Help?
