I have had a very posting-in-communities evening. For me, at least.

a poll about Yuletide at yuletide and a post anticipating Live to Dance at

I have a coworker who is a comic fanboy, to levels that ought to be entirely inappropriate for his job in our workplace, except for the fact that there are so many dysfunctional things about our workplace that this doesn't even register ( Read more... )

Travis Wall's choreography for DWTS was tonight. Nick Lazzarini was one of the dancers. Other than being pleased that people continue to pay them to work, nothing else noteworthy there ( Read more... )

There's a Top Gear marathon of every episode ever starting tonight at midnight. I don't actually need to watch every episode ever, particularly not the chopped-up versions that air in the US, but I think I'm going to have a hard time keeping away from it. However, starting this season they're actually airing the entire episodes, which is awesome ( Read more... )

I finally finished watching the rest of season one of The LXD. (I don't know whether it's available anywhere outside the US, and Jon M. Chu seems to live on YouTube, so I'm sure he's been searching and swinging the ban-hammer at anyone who's been uploading episodes in an easily-findable way ( Read more... )

Mia Michaels did a really cool stylized 60s-ish group routine for SYTYCD Canada this week: Let Go. It's pretty sharp, but it's also a little bit like, after spending all season on SYTYCD telling people that their Fosse wasn't slinky enough, she decided to see if she could teach people to be slinky. Except in really, really brightly-colored suits ( Read more... )

The agony that was beach volleyball is over for the year, thank goodness, and as parting gifts I have two new cuts that are going to take forever to heal. I hate that beach, so, so much. Also, sort of hate my teammates, considering that only two of them (of six we needed, of eight on the team) were there by 15 minutes after the game was to have ( Read more... )

Am I right in thinking that there is a creepy/possibly dangerous character in a movie who says, "Hello, poppet"? (or 'ello, as it were, with some vaguely British accent) Or have I just creepified the phrase in my memory for no good reason ( Read more... )

Dear people who've watched Primeval: I got stuck (like a year ago) a couple episodes into series two, and stopped watching. I think I was mostly not excited about the last episode of series one and the first of series two. It is possible that I just don't like shows that are willing to make surprise! changes like that to characters I've gotten ( Read more... )

So, let's talk about how so, so very out of practice I am at dating, flirting, and generally interacting with my gender of preference. Some random guy might have been hitting on me, in his adorable stuttery way, at volleyball tonight. Or maybe he, like the many people up here who get transferred around to random offices, just doesn't know anyone ( Read more... )
