- got many a book and DVD for Christmas ... at the moment, I'm watching Glenn's gift, "Jay and Silent Bob Do Degrassi". I forgot how ceaselessly awful this show is, how eminently punchable every single character is, and how many many hours I can spend watching it. Kevin Smith's awfully adorable. and Great White North informs like ... 90% of the Canadian jokes they make in the fake movie. good times
(I missed a whole season leading up to this, and I'm totally confused. EmoFrodo's a homeless musician now*? PEYppers is in England? why are Paige and Manny maiming each other? isn't Liberty pregnant? JT still lives? zuh?
*this is almost as hilarious as when his birth father threw photo chemicals at him. the peer-pressuring tyranical homeless guy = best character ever
- also watched the beginning of the Adam West Batman movie, which is about as terrible as Degrassi
- you know what else is good in a way where, it doesn't register as anything close to "good" on any human scale but it's hilarious anyway? Fergie. I'm firmly convinced she's the pop hip-hoppy version of Spinal Tap. her stuff is exactly the same kind of just-this-side-of-too-stupid-to-be-true badness. which reminds me ... I was pondering Fergie's aging transsexual looks, nauseating approach to "sexy" and her improbable high self-esteem, and decided I need to do a Strangers With Candy vid to one of her songs, because she was clearly seperated at birth from Jerri. the question is - which? whichever, I'd have to trim it down, because those motherfuckers go on far longer than you'd think you could stretch the concepts of lady lumps or Fergiliciousness.

Yuletide. so many many good fics, in that great way where it feels like an episode/chapter/issue that got left out ... mostly because it has lots more gay sex than usual. have some recs
