List ten things that made you happy recently. And tag ten people to repost.
1. OMG SEEING THE CRACK CONTINGENT IN LESS THAN A MONTH SO DAMN EXCITED.
2. Randomly getting two days off for “fall break” was nice.
3. Blair, one of the suitemates, and my mom and sister are going to go see Dan In Real Life tomorrow, which should be awesome.
4. Geeking out and discussing fanfiction with Blair as we ate dinner the other day. Don’t I win at this ‘randomly-selected roommate’ business? I think I do.
5. Pushing Daisies. I love this show. It makes me happy.
6. Dumbledore is gay! That was excellent news.
7. Uh. Tonight’s (well, last night’s) episode of Countdown, with jacket-less Keith Olbermann randomly popping up every now and again. Mmm.
8. I’m sure I have something else. How about this semester being more than halfway over?
9. Music. Just in general. It always makes me happy.
10. I AM SEEING THE CRACK CONTINGENT IN LESS THAN A MONTH. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE AWESOME THAT IS THIS? WE WILL ALL BE IN THE SAME APARTMENT. THE WORLD WILL IMPLODE.
If you want this meme, have at it. =D
Name your top six TV shows right now, before reading the questions.
1. Boston Legal
2. CSI
3. The Colbert Report
4. House
5. M*A*S*H
6. The Daily Show
1. Who is your favorite character from #2 (CSI)?
I have lots and lots of love for Ecklie. I’m weird, I know. Also, Hodges. They tie.
2. Who is your least favorite character from #4 (House)?
Hmm, good question. Probably Chase. I’ve only ever been able to work up any feeling toward him at all a handful of times, and in those times it was a highly negative feeling. At least Cutthroat Bitch is entertaining. =P
3. What would a crossover between #1 (Boston Legal) and #5 (M*A*S*H) include?
...time travel, given how far apart those two are set. I’m sure Alan would have a lot of fun hitting on Margaret and annoying Frank, though. =P
4. Who is your favorite ship from #5 (M*A*S*H)?
Hawkeye/Sidney, of course! =D
5. If you were to set one person from #3 (The Colbert Report) and one person from #5 (M*A*S*H) on a blind date, who would they be?
Hahaha, wut. I...have no idea. c!Stephen and Frank, perhaps, if they ever somehow got over all their major repression issues?
6. If you could meet one person from #4 (House) and spend the day with them, who would it be, and what would you do?
I’m going to be predictable and say Wilson. I have no idea what we’d do (each other? I’d be cool with that) but I would certainly like to talk to him about some things!
7. If you could change one thing about #2 (CSI)'s plot line, what would you change?
THE STUPID FUCKING GRISSOM/SARA NONSENSE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE. That, or Sara could’ve not been found. Or been found dead. Either or.
8. Explain a relationship between two people (not necessarily romantic) from show #5 (M*A*S*H), and why you like the relationship between them?
Well, I have to love the friendship between Hawkeye and BJ, even if BJ annoys the crap out of me at times. They just play off each other so well.
9. If the lead title characters (first name in the credit sequence) from #1 (Boston Legal) and #3 (TCR) were both drowning, and you could only save one, who would it be?
So either Alan or c!Stephen, huh? Well, Alan might be able to rescue himself, whereas Stephen would be completely panicking. So I’ll go with Stephen.
10. If you could change the title characters' order in the credits for #4 (House), what order would you choose?
Hugh, RSL, Lisa, Jennifer, Omar, Jesse, then whoever the permanent new people are. (I’m still sad about Henry being gone. *tear*)
11. If you were able to add a new character, any kind of character you wanted, to the storyline for #5 (M*A*S*H), what would the character be like, and what would their role be?
I wouldn’t need to add a new character: I’d just make Sidney a regular character, as opposed to simply recurring. More backstory on him would’ve been nice!
12. What happens in your favorite episode of show #2 (CSI)?
I have no idea what my favorite episode of CSI is.
13. If you could kill off one of the characters in #1 (Boston Legal), who would it be and how would you do it?
Well, no need to kill Brad since he’s barely there anymore. Instead of killing someone, can I bring Daniel Post back to life? He was particularly awesome. And way better for Denise than stupid Brad.
14. If you got the chance to visit the set for either show #3 (TCR) or show #6 (TDS), which would you choose?
Let me tell you internets: Originally, this question compared show three and five. Since I noticed that six was not included in any of the previous questions, I just changed five to six, to give it a question. I managed to forget until I looked back up at my list that show three is TCR. So I accidentally gave myself the MOST EVIL QUESTION EVER. I can’t even blame the meme! I did it to myself! Ugh. Well, I’ll pick TDS mainly because I haven’t seen their new set yet. Perhaps I could bribe someone to take me to TCR’s set too. =P
Comment on this post and I'll choose seven userpics from your profile. Explain what they mean and why you're using them in your own journal, and post this so others can play along.
sunsetsinthewes picked:
1.
This is a quote from Jon from the interview where he was talking to (read: completely pwning) Bill Bennett about gay marriage. I love Jon. *pets*
2.
This is Jill Wagner, the PB of an original RP character. She’s really hot, and…therefore I have an icon of her. Do I need another reason? =P
3.
vash_donutangel drew me a picture of Ecklie, because I adore him so. I used the picture to make a (rather crappy) icon. Really, he’s not so evil. Just a jackass sometimes. =P
4.
I love Greg and Hodges from CSI, and totally ship them. So adorable. =D
5.
This is Danny and Matt from the ill-fated Studio 60. Like the icon says, they were a little homoerotic. =P In this scene, Matt tackled Danny about, I believe, adding the question "Is the show patriotic?" to the list of questions for the test group. Eventually Danny turned the tables on him and pinned him to the ground. It was all very gay, which Matt noted.
6.
c!Stephen! For those not in the know, there’s a study that says that for every older brother a man has, his chances of being gay increase by one-third. Amusingly enough, Stephen has seven older brothers, which makes him approximately 233% gay according to that study. Personally? I think the estimate’s a little low. =P
7.
This is an icon of the now-infamous Vanity Fair picture of Stephen. You know, the one that caused spontaneous orgasms in all his fangirls-and-boys? Holy fucking guh summed up my reaction to it quite nicely, so of course I had to have an icon of it! =D
subluxate picked:
8.
So, uh, O’Reilly and Geraldo are, to quote Stephen, “narcissists enthralled in their own overblown egos, projecting their own petty insecurities on to the world around them, inventing false enemies for the sole purpose of bolstering their sense of self-importance, itty bitty Nixons minus the relevance or a hint of vision.” Anyway, they were talking on Billo’s show as they are wont to do, and TDS came up. Geraldo said something about TDS showing clips of old ladies falling on ice and making fun of them. Uhhh, yeah, nobody knows what that was about. Anyway, Stephen showed up on TDS to force Jon to apologize; when he didn’t, he put him on notice. Eventually the story concludes with Jon going on TCR and walking a mile in Geraldo’s mustache. Thus, Stephen and Jon’s spat is resolved and they live happily ever after. The end.
9.
No crossing-dressing!Jon fic, sadly, but clearly there should be. You know, I don’t actually know what this one’s about. All I know is that, for some reason, Jon decided to dress up as a princess and let someone take pictures. And for that, I am eternally grateful. He’s very pretty-pink’s a good color on him!
10.
This would be Jon imitating the inner voice of a member of the family whose house he and George Clooney used for naughty purposes filming a bit for the Oscars. They were in bed together because they want each other hardcore for the purposes of the skit, and apparently someone poked their head into the room and was quite startled/confused to see the hawt George/Jon sexing it.
11.
Jon’s hiding from stupidity! Pretty much literally, actually, because IIRC, that was from a segment awhile ago where they played a clip where someone was talking about what sounded like some horrible, evil, devastating threat that actually turned out to be...gay marriage. Yes.
12.
Snape can be such a drama queen. That’s all. =P
13.
This is Dan, from the pilot of Sports Night. For some unknown reason, he and Casey lacked pants when they did their show. *shrug* It’s Dan in his boxers-I’m not questioning it too deeply.
14.
This is Natalie, also from Sports Night. She does look young here, but that doesn’t matter. She’s totally awesome. Gotta love Natalie.

This is a quote from the wondrous Nick/David (CSI) fic Snapshots, by helena_eternal. It’s hilarious and poignant and touching and IC to a T, and completely got me hooked on a. the Hodges love and b. the Nick/David pairing. Props to her, for she is awesome. I highly recommend her fic.
16.
Snape icon! It’s pretty.
17.
Tired of morons using Jesus as an excuse to be narrow-minded, bigoted assholes? If so, this is the icon for you! I sure was, and hence I nabbed this icon the moment I saw it.
18.
This would be a quote from when Kelly and I were MSTing something. I believe it was an SVU fic, but I’m not certain.
19.
I’m a Capricorn! We’re ambitious and proud. I am certainly the latter, and sort of the former. Plus, it’s pretty.
20.
More princess!Jon. What can I say? He’s pretty.
21.
Charles is rolling his eyes at the stupidity. Certainly something I can relate to.
The icon meme will be updated when I get more chosen, since I've commented a few other places. For now, though, adios!
