RANDOM OPINIONS WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BE UNPOPULAR, ABOUT RANDOM FANDOMS:

( cut for length )
This list may be added to as I think of other things I have Opinions about. Or not. Feel free to agree, disagree, argue, and offer your own Opinions.

Most awesome-tastic thing heard in a while: The Pogues covering "Do You Believe In Magic?" *laughs*

Close second: The radio-friendly version of "Boys From The County Hell", mainly because the lyrics stop making sense when you replace all the profanity. "We got him out the back and we beat him 'til he bawled"? Really?



Some old fannish5 entries, just because:

And
You ever write a fanfic where you think certain lines are just fantastic, but nobody seems to have noticed or commented on them? Comment on this thread with a link to your fanfic, and I'll give you a full-fledged line!post with at least 5 of my favorite lines from that fic.



...I have to go in to work for Kinetix in, like, an hour and a half. *makes face*

Yes. I fail. I've been off LJ for way too long. I haven't been commenting. I know.

And instead of, y'know, finding people's posts and commenting, here, have a userpics meme!

( cut for length and images )

...why do these always manage to come out so lopsided? *blink* Anyway, you can find credits for all those icons on my userpics page. Because I'm lazy.

Iiiiii feel like I've been run over by a truck. Good times. I hate being vaguely sick. I'd almost rather be blatantly sick, because then at least you know what's wrong and people sympathize and let you stay in bed all day and not wonder out loud why you're curled up in a tiny ball on the couch. *flail*

Blegh. Never take a flight that requires that you be awake at 3AM. I'm serious, when at 10:30AM you're wondering why the day isn't over yet, and you still have a class and work to get through? Not fun.

Stuff!

Meme 2 (snagged from trascendenza):

List 7 songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words or even if they're not any good but they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your LJ along with your 7 songs. Then tag 7 other people to see what they're listening to in absolute random order.

( 7 songs )


Meme 3 (snagged from martoufmarty):

( everything about Chica you were never curious about )


...okay. I should probably do homework. Instead I'm gonna finish putting together the next article for Firefox News.

...theatre humor is so inappropriate. :D



Instead of doing homework like I should have done and like I'm still not doing after work and before rehearsal, I vegged out and watched my new Hair DVD. OMG I LOVE RAÚL SO MUCH. And him singing "Hair"? SO MUCH LOVE. If those jeans were any tighter they would cut off circulation, and grabbing his crotch on the line "Down to there"? SO MUCH LOVE. *dies*

(Major props also to Adam, Julia, Shoshana, Jai, and Lillias, but OMG RAÚL.)



Anna meme (from fandom_meme), because I am a meme whore:

Choose 12 characters and put them in a numbered list. Once you've chosen, go behind the cut and grab these questions to answer them. No peeking until your list is complete!

And from fannish5: What lost episodes (or lost issues, or cut scenes) would you most like to see discovered?

1. Doctor Who: The Celestial Toymaker
2. Doctor Who: The Massacre of St Bartholomew's Eve
3. Doctor Who: The Macra Terror
4. The Black Donnellys: ANYTHING EVER
5. Newsies: all those scenes that originally gave Sarah a personality

Stolen from everybody.

1. Go here: http://www.careercruising.com/default.asp
2. Put in Username: nycareers, Password: landmark
3. Take their “Career Matchmaker” questions
4. Post the top ten results.


1. Film and TV Crew
2. Cosmetologist
3. Commercial Diver
4. Hairstylist
5. Tattoo Artist
6. Esthetician
7. Director of Photography
8. Makeup Artist
9. Lighting Technician
10. Set Designer
( 11-40 )

The awesome thing is, I can actually see me doing some of these. Well, obviously nobody wants me for their Medical Imaging Tech or Nuclear Medicine Technologist, but Film and TV Crew? Director of Photography, Makeup Artist, Lighting Technician, Set Designer, Camera Operator, Recording Engineer, Special Effects Technician, those kinds of things? Pretty much what I'm planning to do anyway. :D :D :D


And a fannish meme, snagged from fandom_memes:

Ten days 'til the xkcd meetup!

Also, cheers, folks, I'm going to get a partial set design credit on the Yellow Boat program. :D

I told you I'd get this meme finished before finals ended! I told you! Didn't I?

Well, anyway, here's the pairing meme section.

( Five Relationships Wade Welles Never Had for morgeil )


( Five Relationships Roger Davis Never Had for kawaiispinel )


( and a bonus: When Wade (Never) Met Roger )

Haha. YAY!

Responses to the first part of the drabble meme!

( Relief: Maggie/Wade buddy fic for morgeil )



( Salvation: Desmond drabble for kawaiispinell )



( Cheats: Harper drabble for rommies_voice )



Prompt responses will probably be coming next, followed by the Five Relationships memes. Can't give you a time estimate, but SOON. PROMISE.
