If he'd said "crab boat" it would've been perfect.
Click to viewHonestly, though, I did recently find out that I was born and raised in the fifth richest county in the country. Ye-eah... *fidgets under mink coat of privilege*
Anywho, meme! From zombres:

• I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you better.
• Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
• Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.
1. If you could make one slash or crack pairing canon, which would you choose?
Heh, well, knee-jerk answer would be Peter/Claude, from Heroes, had the show not run itself so deep into the ground it could taste mantle. Otherwise, how cool would it be if they really tried for Peter/Neal/El on White Collar? If they made a serious attempt at depicting a stable polyamorous relationship on television... that just so happened to include an FBI agent and a reformed(ish) con man? Also, I'm sure that if Lassiter on Psych was a woman, she and Shawn would be if not together, at least well into the "will they, won't they" phase. If they went for it, I would almost definitely start watching again. Same goes for House and Wilson.
2. Who's your favourite Doctor so far?
Hmm. Here I must admit that I've only made one attempt at watching Classic!Who. It was a Four episode, and... it really didn't do much for me, sad to say. Couldn't get a handle on the plot, the alien costumes were pathetically bad, it seemed to be about four hours long- it just didn't work. So, that said, between Nine, Ten, and Eleven... Eleven, quite honestly. I really think Matt Smith has done the best job of capturing the ancient, absurd, crazy, dorky, friendly, angry, sorrowful, hopeful, damaged, arrogant, fairy tale nature of the Doctor just a hair better than CE, and maybe two hairs better than Tennant.
3. You could pick one old movie to have a big budget remake: which would you choose and who would you cast?
Okay, I thought about this a lot when I was supposed to be working today, and I decided on Holiday. The cast for my version would be:
Johnny Case... Brendan Hines (someone appropriately "aw shucks," but with some fire in him)
Linda Seton... Michelle Monaghan (someone with a lot more fire in her, but not incapable of insecurity)
Julia Seton... Kirsten Dunst (all nice and delicate on the outside, but sharp on the inside)
Ned Seton... Alan Tudyk (he could handle Neddy's sarcastic one-liners, along with the quiet booze-soaked desperation)
Edward Seton... Bob Gunton (I was looking for someone... obtuse)
Nick Potter... Stephen Rea (rumpled and hangdog and funny- check, check, and check)
Susan Elliott Potter... Penelope Wilton (sweet and sly and maternal- check, check, and check)
4. What's your dream job?
*sigh* What a depressing question in this day and age. If I'd applied myself in high school and college, I might actually have a job like that. An editor for fiction novels, that always seemed like it'd be pretty awesome.
5. What superpower would you like to have the most?
Stop time. Mostly just so I could read the books and watch the movies/TV and listen to the music/podcasts and cook the food I've been meaning to, but yeah.
