In rediscovering my love for Jake and Amir's version, I'm pretty sure my new greatest (non-filthy) wish is to see Colin and Bradley do a lipdub to Flight of the Conchords' Hiphopopotamus Vs. Rhymenocerous. I'm not normally a praying sort of person, but if you're up there, please make this happen Superman. Random, misquoted Simpson's line ftw!
You know what's stupid? I just saw that Susan Boyle lady referred to as "SuBo". I hate you, media.
Speaking of media I loathe: Fox News. Starts at 2.15.
I'm glad Stewart showed them up for the moronic assholes they are, but I can't even believe the topic was broadcast to begin with. I mean, really, Fox News? Really?
Moving on.
You know what I love about the Merlin fandom? How there's very little name joining when people talk about couples. I know it exists, Merthur for example, but there's very little of it. I like that in a fandom.
OH, iCarly this weekend! I have been looking forward to the blooper episode for freaking months, if only to see just how hilarious Jerry Trainor is when he mucks up or improvs a line.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, speaking of nothing to do with food, the other day I made a caramelised onion and brie quiche that was to die for. In a last minute stroke of genius, I added some fresh rosemary (because my rosemary bush never gets enough love) and it was so fabulous, I'm not even going to try and be modest. It was awesome, that's all there is to it.
And then tonight my mum made roast pumpkin and philly "salad" (not so much a salad really, as an accompaniment, but whatevs), which was so, so good. Basically roasted pumpkin with cashews, prosciutto and cubes of Philadelphia cheese covered in a light balsamic dressing, YUM.

Do you read and/or write slash? Yes and yes.
Since when? I'm gonna ballpark it here and say about 00/01?
How did you stumble into slash? I can't remember, which I am very disappointed about, but if I took an educated guess, it was probably through Harry Potter.
Your first fandom and pairing? This I also can't remember. If I took another educated guess it would probably be Harry/Draco, but I have very early memories of Ben Affleck/Matt Damon, Colin Mochrie/Ryan Stiles (for shiz!) and Paul McDermott/Gatesy from Tripod (because of this one awesome fic I read).
Your favourite genre/tropes? I am a sucker for the angst that comes with realising you like the same sex, so sexuallyconfused!boys always does it for me. I am also a big fangirl of hate!sex that eventually turns into TRUE LOVE.
And your least favourite? I don't like mpreg or incest. And I really dislike reading about sappy, "girly" guys.
The first person you told about your new hobby? I can remember discussing Affleck/Damon with a not-that-close friend in high school, so I can't remember who I would have told first, but I can't imagine I was shy about it.
Are you open about liking slash now? I don't generally bring it up in everyday conversation, but I wouldn't be afraid to talk about it and have done so before when the opportunity arose.
If not, why not? -
A couple new songs I'm loving:
Everybody Come Outside - Pomegranates
Back Up Your Soul - Uniform Motion
A couple slightly older ones that I'm rediscovering my love for:
Love Lust - King Charles
You’ve the strength of the Greeks, you are God's masterpiece. You're every triumph, every victory, I believe in every breath you breathe.
Lost Coastlines - Okkervil River
No one to see on the quay, no one waving for me, just the shoreline receding.
Up Against The Wall - Peter Bjorn & John (m4a)
I don't know what you came here for. It's almost that I wish we hadn't met at all.
One cover:
Postcards From Italy - Florence & the Machine (Beirut cover)
And one song to make you laugh:
Small Penis Compensation Vehicle - Born Again Floozies
To wrap things up, Conan is awesome in case you'd forgotten:
This accent's insulting,
To actor's like Hugh Laurie.
XD

Date: 2010-04-15 02:12 pm (UTC)1. who is this jake and amir? you seem to talk about them a lot and since you have pretty much awesome taste (i.e. arrested development & interpol - basically the best), I'm definitely interested. =0 also: Jon kicks ass.
2. merthur? hahahahahaha..that is a terrible name. I think my favorite name is definitely farroom..because it sounds like a car.
3. mpreg should not exist & true love ftw. (does anyone use ftw anymore? I hardly see it online..sad times. I need to get with the program, I'm always behind on memes and shizz. btw have you seen that insane clown posse thing? I mean, what the hell is that all about? hahahaha. FUCKIN' RAINBOWS.)
4. beirut original >>>>>>>>>> f+atm. SO MUCH. maybe I'm just being a swollen penis here because I'm basically a zach fangirl, but I didn't enjoy that cover at all.
5. conan wins at life.

OF COURSE the Beirut one is the best, it's fucking awesome, but there's something I really like about that girl's voice. You are indeed an engorged penis :P

Date: 2010-04-15 04:00 pm (UTC)& yea, I did! if you're ever bored, you should read "boarding school days" by her. great stuff.
“A walk sounds fan-fucking-tastic!”
“Then we shall go on a wa-fucking-alk.”
“You’re a mor-fucking-on.”
“Okay,” said Colin, “we’re going to nip this fucking nonsense in the butt.”
edit: I fail at html. how embarrassing.

Date: 2010-04-15 02:48 pm (UTC)Bradley is totally dorky enough to do this and Colin totally is a weedy, shy guy. Which is to say, yes. They definitely should do anything and everything to do with FotC.
Plus, Jake and Amir <3

Date: 2010-04-16 04:29 am (UTC)SO.
I went over to help clean my cousin's house today. It was, unsurprisingly, not fun and now my hands feel icky and gritty even though I've washed them 938452096472240546018736 times.
My fanmix went well, my fic did not. I have been alternately celebrating and sulking.
I'm noming on McDonald's right now.
Trying to find the energy one day to clean up my own house, but finding effort is not my strong point.
My dog spewed on my bed twice last night, very uncool :(((
I am currently making a top ten picspam of people I want to bone.
I am now off to read your entry!
Your turn for an update, GO!
no subject
Date: 2010-04-16 04:52 am (UTC)1. WANT TO COME CLEAN MY ROOM!?!?!?
2. That's okay. I'll keep you. Cleaning is weird.
Even though I can be addicted to it.3. What do you mean, your fic didn't?! I liked your fic. HONEST!!! =D
4. Damn. Every once in awhile, I love that stuff.
5. My cat did that three days in a row a couple of weeks ago. not. Impressed. At. All.
6. AM I ON THAT LIST?!?!?!
7. We all know how that ended.
My update:
1. I have watched three episodes of Supernatural today.
2. I made a specific to-do list for today, and the only thing I did on it was make and eat supper. And clean up.
3. I have yet to finish any of the six pieces of art I have started.
4. I am upset with myself for being so unmotivated, but have no idea how to fix it.
5. I should stop moaning, I really should.
6. I've been thinking about making some fanmixes, but realize that a.) people don't know the character and b.) I don't have graphics and can't seem to upload things properly.
7. Sorry for whining.
8. However, I did get an awesome description of myself based on my name analysis. I should find the site my teacher used.
9. I have a boring life so I'm going to stop here.

Date: 2010-04-16 09:00 am (UTC)My sex list is actually 'people who I'm never going to get to sleep with', which rules you out because I know all I'd have to do is put on a Bradley James outfit and you'd be eeeeasy xD
You're really into Supernatural huh? Don't go forgetting Merlin now!
I have no idea how to help motivate you, as I can't even motivate myself. Actually, go download my Summer mixtape, that sometimes peps me up! Tres funky! Listen to it while you do your artwork, you'll paint rainbows without even realising it, I guarantee it.
If people didn't moan/whinge, no one would have anything to talk about!
I'm sorry this reply took so long, I went for a nap. When I woke up I could barely move, damn body!

Date: 2010-04-16 05:45 pm (UTC)...I'm still trying to decide whether or not I find that insulting..... XD
How could I ever forget Merlin?!
You'd never let me. Also, BRADLEY JAMES AND JENSEN ACKLES LOOK SO SIMILAR IT IS MIND BLOWING!!! I SHIT YOU NOT!!!!!!Ahahaha. To your next little bit there. And I approve of your icon. =D
It's okay. I'll still keep you. =D

Date: 2010-04-17 02:37 am (UTC)Damn right I'll never let you forget Merlin. Even though I post about it ALL THE TIME, I'd still spam your journal with pictures and random quotes like DO YOU KNOW HOW TO WALK ON YOUR KNEES?
no subject
Date: 2010-04-17 06:22 am (UTC)WHOWHAT I'M LOOKING FOR ;)Actually....YOU SHOULD STILL SPAM MY JOURNAL WITH THINGS LIKE THAT!
And I totally have a dirty reply to that question HOWEVER! For once in my life, I will restrain myself!
