In which words just come out of my mouth and by mouth, I obviously mean my hands on the keyboard

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.

[kylezy.livejournal.com]

YOUR ICON IS GREAT. DID YOU HEAR ABOUT THAT INTERVIEW WITH DAVID CROSS? IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE THEY'RE GOING TO DO THE MOVIE. ='(
& 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.”

OOoh, that fic sounds sort of promising though!

Still. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :((((( Did Cross give a reason?

"Way too much time it's been (since the show ended)," he told me. "I mean, there's so many people involved. Everyone's doing their own thing, you know. And everybody's aged. It's just not going to happen. I'm sure I speak for everybody when I say we'd love for it to happen, we'd love to work on it, but just I don't think... not going to happen."

That is SHIT, dammit, I was so looking forward to it, even though I sorta knew it mightn't happen. Everyone seemed so keen for it too, all the cast I read interviews with, that is. Boo :((((

[vinca15.livejournal.com]

I KNOW. I was already planning on like, you know when people ask you what your favorite movie is? I was just waiting for them to release it so I could be all, THE ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT MOVIE, it's the greatest, I wore cutoffs to the premiere, etc.. =(

[kylezy.livejournal.com]

Ooooh, the cutoffs. What a missed opportunity for a mass gathering of people wearing nothing but cutoffs! BOO.
