Think you're quick enough?

What is it with the annoying ship "mash" names all sounding like food items? "Calzona" is probably the worst (totes a pizza), but I also find myself wanting to kick something whenever I see "Rizzles", because that's just dumb. It's like a cracker. Also, "Jemily". I can't help thinking of jam. Just...WHY

Calzona, Rizzles and Jemily... all three make me shudder. I'm so against mashing ship names that these days, if I see a fic with a 'Rizzles' as a ship category instead of Rizzoli/Isles, I skip it.

And The Quick and the Dead, I remember seeing the movie while flying to the States in '94 or '95. Loved Sharon, but already then had a very different reaction to Russel Crowe. Yeah, never could warm up to him. Rubs me the wrong way.

eta: Speaking of things that fans do that annoy me... WTH is going on with ppl tweeting their favorite actors asking them to say hi. I'd find it way too embarrassing to ever stoop so low as to tweet Sasha or Paget "I really love your acting, can I get a hi from you, it'd totally make my day. Thanks." Seriously people? This kinda stuff makes me wanna hand my fangirl-patch back and beg for forgiveness.

...I tend to do the same. And I know it's completely irrational, because the use of the portmonteau doesn't always say anything about the general quality of the fic, but damn, I just can't.

Russel Crowe does nothing for me either. Mostly, I just find him annoying, because he seems to ooze this dick-headedness. Granted, I have no idea how he is in person, but he definitely comes across as a person who is really full of himself.

*facepalm* I bet all the celebrities are headdesk-ing right at this moment, because OMG SO DUMB. Well, I guess it's cool that your idol sort of "knows" of your existance that way, but you might just as well write them an awesome letter. *hinthintnudgenudge*

The whole Tweeting your idol thing...

I was gonna write about it on my LJ, you know, to complain and generally moan. But just as I was trying to decide what to say without sounding like a complete bitch, someone on my flist went "omg, I tweeted Sasha Alexander and asked her to say 'hi' and she did and omg this is the coolest thing evah"... I decided to keep quiet.

*hinthintnudgenudge* yourself... you ready for a writing session next Wed-Thu?

[lysachan]

...oops? ;) Yeah,I sort of get the whole tweeting thing, and then again, I don't. Embarrassing, that's what it is most of the time.

you ready for a writing session next Wed-Thu?

HELL YEAH. I'll probably take the 12pm train, so I'll be in Helsinki around two. Should I get to your place, or are we hanging in downtown before the gig?

[kayryn]

I can come downtown... maybe we could grab a bite somewhere before the concert. What time did the doors open? Six?

[lysachan]

Sounds fab! The doors open at six thirty, so we'll have plenty of time to relax and get into the mood beforehand. ;) I'll definitely need a cup of coffee at some point, too!

AGKFJLKS! CANNOT WAIT.

[kayryn]

just.... don't forget the tickets. :P

[lysachan]

Don't even kid about that! :p
