Let me introduce you to my new fangirl crush!

[iko]

His name is Yahtzee.
He's a British-born, currently Australian-based writer.
With a sweet hat and a chip on his shoulder.

And he writes the best freaking game reviews in the world. (I can't wait for him to review Mass Effect, which I finished playing and enjoyed.)

Yay, a fellow fangirl has discovered Zero Punctuation! YOU CAN'T HAVE YAHTZEE HE'S ALL MINE!!1

I'll just listen to his voice while humping my PC.

Spunk-flavored lollipops! The plot is as impenetrable as a granite octopus! I have no will to live so here's my weak spot, please shoot it-boss battles! Brown ruins! More brown ruins! Brown castle! More brown castle! Revenge of the brown castle! I could go on listing the stupid design decisions... so I will!

(God, he's so wonderful.)

OMG I FORGOTS ABOUT DT ON TOPGEAR!

Is it this Sunday?

[iko]

Not yet. Only episode 8 last weekend, and from what I understand, DT will be on the final episode.

[atara]

Oh, I love Yahtzee.

[iko]

He's one of the best reviewers I've read/heard in years.
Have you seen his other reviews and essays? They are dead brilliant!

[nonelvis]

The only downside to watching that episode of Top Gear is that columbina is such a Top Gear fan that he'll want to watch it with me, and I'm not sure I want him to see me drooling over DT.

Oh well. Probably nothing he hasn't seen before, I suppose ;-)

[iko]

Hehe.
I've been watching Cranford and Mike's poking fun at me for wanting to hump the screen whenever Simon Woods came on screen.

[nonelvis]

I couldn't remember what Simon Woods looked like, went to IMDB, and realized, "Oh, it's Octavian!". Not my type, but a good-looking boy nevertheless.

I remember watching Rome S2 and thinking "Dang, he's pale compared to the others! Maybe it's because everyone else is sort of tanned in the Italian sun." Then seeing him in Cranford made me see that, no, he really IS that pale.

His character in Cranford is a really sweet, earnest young doctor. It makes me all melty! And when he's not on screen, I can drool over Phil Glenister. Hee hee.

[iko]

I wonder what they'll do with him. I thought the one with Daniel Radcliffe was HILARIOUS... I wonder if they'll play up the whole ten-inch rumor.

YESSSSS.
