utterly pointless Saturday spam, hello!

[meresy]

Woke up at 1:30pm today, like a boss. It's possible I stayed up until, like 3am reading yet more TSN fic, and not even new fic, but a re-reading of Buyer's Remorse which may be my favourite fic so far.

Or maybe it's this WIP, Set Yourself On Fire, which is a SPN/TSN crossover and two great tastes that taste great together. I'm waiting for someone

Yay, Andrew Garfield! \o/

I thought Never Let Me Go was both relentlessly and pointlessly depressing. I 'm still not sure quite why I disliked it so much. Possibly because the characters are so passive and didn't seem like real people to me. I did cry but felt I'd been manipulated. Hmph. I quite understand your reluctance to watch it!

Absolutely heartbreaking but somehow not as pointless or relentless (to me, at least) is Boy A. Needless to say, Andrew Garfield is brilliant.

Boy A was next on the list, since it seemed to be one of those things that made his name for him pre-TSN. *investigates*

As for NLMG... the premise is just. Well, I like a good cry now and then, but there are some things that are, right, just manipulative. And relentless angst doesn't appeal at the moment.

HI HELLO. I feel like I haven't seen you on these internets in aaaaaaaaages. How's things?

HELLOOOOOO! ::waves::

I mostly lurk these days, and occasionally comment when I'm feeling adventurous. ;)

Let me know what you think of Boy A. Oh, and if you need help getting hold of it, I believe something can be arranged...

[meresy]

Lurking is a totally valid choice! I've been doing that a lot myself.

I found a good torrent link, so thankee. Sounds like the internet agrees it is a v. good film, so I am looking forward...

Boy A was very good, Andrew even better, and--as advertised--fucking sad and depressing. :(

I am now going to read fluffy-ridiculous Jesse/Andrew fic to make myself feel better.

fluffy-ridiculous Jesse/Andrew fic

This sounds like something I should know about! I don't. How don't I? So, who's Jesse and why should he be slashed with Andrew??

[meresy]

How don't you know, idek. I suppose perhaps you paid no attention to The Social Network? Andrew played the Eduardo Saverin to Jesse's Mark Zuckerberg, and to hear Andrew tell it it was love at first dork. Jesse is he of the dimples and ridiculous curls and foster cats and compulsive, sly lying in interviews.

(You HAVE seen TSN, right? You should, if not. Andrew looks good in suits, if nothing else appeals.)

I don't have primers or picspams of my own (yet), but I have some links (look especially at that second one, it's the most comprehensive). There are many gif ans pictures and interviews where Andrew proclaims his love (he can't seem to help it) and Jesse bites his lip at him. ♥

They lived together during the east-coast filming for TSN and drove each other places (on Andrew's Vespa, even) and went on freaking dates to basketball games, and, like THE MALL because they were bored and also actually thirteen years old or something. THEY ARE MAGICAL.

Then, if you wish to investigate further, start by reading Carry It In My Heart

Haven't seen TSN, no. Probably will now. :)

[meresy]

YAY. Come to the Dark Side. \o/

[rosiespark]

I just googled 30 Minutes Or Less. Now I rather wish I hadn't. /o\

[meresy]

Heeeee. I'm hoping it'll be the fun kind of stupid, like Zombieland was. (Look at your choices, Eisenberg!)
