LJ: I am really pleased with the speed LJ is working. EVERYTHING IS FLYING. I can't stop commenting and writing because finally LJ IS WORKING FAST FOR ME. I might take all my annoyed ranting back and wait for LJ to fix the issues with default comment title and other things because my main problem with it (speed and reliability) is fixed.

Nah, comment away... I've missed your posts! ^^ I need to be off the computer myself. That CP post took ages and I just realised I haven't eaten anything for hours. *headdesk*

I am loving you post!

I used to find it pretty annoying to comment in November/December: it used to be soooooo slow and break half of the time. Now everything is fast I am all: oh, I just talk a bit more.. and a bit more..

I'm glad you liked it. :) I hope I didn't give too much away. It's always hard to deiced what is too spoilerish and what isn't

You know I love spoilers. :D More spoilers the better for me, especially if there is any tragic ending ahead. I need to know.

I loved the ep! I liked to see Sherlock shaken to the core by Irene who was aaaaamazing! I'm glad she's not out of the picture and I'm looking forward to seeing her again. We will see her again, I'm fairly sure of that. *crosses fingers*

Re: Suits. What triangle you're talking about? Man, between canon and fanon I'm starting to get confused. Suits was all about Harvey and Mike imho.

Heeeeeeeeeeee WH 13 heeeeeeeeeee! Where are you guys at?

No, you shoulnd't stop commenting and posting excessively! *g*

Sherlock: I loved the episode too, for the same reason.. until the mast moments when Irene was "rescued" by Sherlock. My feminist side did not like it. :D

Suits: I mean Mikey and the girls! I love Mikey and Harvey interaction, and I like the Boss Lady and the Evil Lawyer.

We just finished the episode 8 of season 3 in WH13.

Re: Sherlock. True, that. But...for some reason it didn't irk me much. Irene and Sherlock are wayyyyy out of anybody else's league. I mean, not even John can always keep up with Sherlock and yet Irene seemed to do so SO effortlessly and she did have the upperhand for most of the ep. IDK, it didn't feel much like a true damsel-in-distress rescue though, er, okay, that's what it looked like. But in my mind it didn't feel like one? Cos 1)Irene is not the damsel in distree type and 2)I can totally see her returning the favor as she did so already once (although, yes, yes, that was part of her masterplan, but still). Omg, why do I babble SO mcuh. /fail ( ... )

I know what you saying is mostly true, but then - why wouldn't the creators make her win over Sherlock at the end? In the books, Irene was one single person who managed to do this and I always liked this. It is as if - everything was SO GREAT and then - why spoil it at the end????????

Suits: yes, Rachel and Jenny are my least favourite characters too because they just seem to be some accessories for Mike or something. I am giving the show a bit of a creadit because yes, there are also Donna and Jessica, but still.. why those two lovely girls fight over Mikey?

WH13: YAY!

Ack, Sherlock spoilers! We won't get it in the US for a while yet. :(

(It wasn't a bad spoiler, but I'm trying to remain entirely ignorant.)

Don't worry! It's totally okay. Just thought you might cut it in case there were other US viewers who hadn't dl-ed it yet. And you have! :)

Can you give me the names of a few anime series you enjoy? Maybe I can rec something..

My favourites, just few:

Monster (I haven't expected so much depth in anime)
Shiki (so scary it is good)
Ergo proxy (great and mind-bending)
Hellsing (really REALLY loved it)
Blood+
Trinity Blood (my favourite anime song, that is why)
Trigun and Cowboy beebob - great old-school anime.

Edit: as you see, I like supernatural or sci-fi, preferrably with some romantic storyline too

Uhh, Monster! I love all things Naoki Urasawa. You might like 20th century boys. It's a brilliant manga. There is no anime, but there is a ginormous movie triology that really does it justice, if you can get used to the japanese acting style.

I guess you know Neon Genesis Evangelion? It's one of the best, even though the end sucks. I also thought Witch Hunter Robin was quite good. And there is a really strange gem named Naru Taru. It's brilliant but they did not get far with the anime unfortunately.

Abenobashi Shotengai is also brilliant fun. Very strange and very good.

Lol, I promise not to rant about Mockingjay anymore. I am listening to "Vorkorsigan Saga" at the moment, and I am LOVING IT.

I love your description of Daryl and : yes, totally yes to everything.

I am very tempted to make some icons. Very tempted. I am not sure if I will, though, because I am back to work next week!

Also - did you say Breaking Bad is really good? I am really in a mood for a good Western show at the moment!
