Okay, I went this past weekend to see "2012." Go ahead and get your laughs out now. Hey, how could I resist the delicious man-candy triumvirate of John Cusack, Chiwetel Ejiofor, AND Oliver Platt? Sure, you've got to suspend disbelief like it's going out of style and slow your brain function to the point where you're almost in danger of ( Read more... )

Aw, dammit!

Look, I know there's no excuse for how behind I am in my House-viewing (last I heard, Cuddy didn't get to adopt that baby) but reading an Earthlink news story this morning and getting a gargantuan spoiler for this week's episode?

So not cool.

*sigh* Sometimes you forget that not everyone warns for spoilers.

To all "24" fans on my flist, I have a recommendation: 24thecomicstrip, written and drawn by a lovely and talented capper friend of mine.

Hell, I don't even watch "24" and I think it's funny. Plus, the icons are cute and gankable. So go, read, enjoy, and let him know Nyssa sent you. ^_~

You guys. I signed up for yuletide! This will be my third year participating!

With all the stuff I have going on right now. What was I thinking???? ...Well, I could sure use some holiday cheer. XD

N23's First Law of Yuletide: The one fandom I thought "well, I guess I could *maybe* write something for this..." is sure to be the one I end up having to ( Read more... )

As you can see from the icon on this post, Sarah's been a busy little fanartist since we started watching "Doctor Who." I guess you can look for her artwork and manips at Escapade in about 13 years? Eek.

( Pics or it didn't happen )

The kids have decided they are really into the new "Doctor Who." This warms the proverbial cockles of my heart because I started watching in the 80s during Five's tenure and still remember how magical it seemed back then (yes, even with the cardboard Cybermen and clunky Dalek suits.) Sarah has imprinted on Ten because those are the eps I had on ( Read more... )

For penknife's TV Tropes Challenge, I present 1184 words of meta on Twin Peaks regarding the TV Trope "Cleaning Up Romantic Loose Ends". Enjoy! (I hope.)

Book meme, ganked from kcobweb, to whom I apologize in advance:

1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.
2) Italicize those you intend to read
3) Underline the books you LOVE.
3a) Strikethrough the books you HATE.
4) Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who’ve read 6 and force books upon them.

As seen on kassrachel. This particular one is a very fannish haiku, seemingly compiled for one Arnold J. Rimmer (from "Red Dwarf").

Icon meme seen on muliebrityComment and I'll pick seven of your icons, and then you will explain why you love/are using the icon (who doesn't love talking about their icons, seriously) and then post your explanation/this meme in your journal for other people to squee about their icons, and basically it will be a huge squeefest of love and 100x100 square ( Read more... )
