Obsession (version Shatner)

Last year, inspired by Orson Welles (whom I still adore, no worries!) I wrote:
See, it's been ages--it feels like years--since anything's hit me this hard. When I was a teenager, and through college, certain things would grab hold of me and not let go...

What's funny about this now is that I think this latest Star Trek/William Shatner thing is ten ( Read more... )

Sometimes I find myself really engaged by people squeeing about fandoms I'm not familiar with, and it seems to be like that with TOS, because I keep reading my flist's posts about it and being almost just as entertained as if it had been something I had, you know, seen.

That gif, for instance, was instantly saved to my hard drive.

I take it you have you seen the various TOS blooper reels? (The penultimate one is really only worth it for 3:39) They were brought to my attention and I laughed my ass off.

So yeah, I'm all for a pic spam!

Oh, I know what you mean. I mean, sometimes it's the squee that matters, the passion, not whatever it is they're talking about.

I'm glad I'm not totally annoying everyone.

I haven't had a chance to watch them all the way through, so thanks for sharing!

Your love is rather infection in an endearing way. And I'm glad that you have love in your life. ;)

Thank you for all the sharing. He is pretty adorable in that gif. And Vulcan pick up lines are always helpful. 'Cause brains are hot.

I'm glad "endearing" is the word you chose. I feel so annoying.

BUT I COULD BE MUCH MORE SO.

I love Vulcan pick up lines. Mostly because there is no logic to the use of pick up lines to begin with. I mean the logical thing to do should you require such activity is to state your case before your intended. Without obfuscation of the end in mind.

jesus god, I hope you guys just watched Shatner on Conan tonight, because it was classic in so many ways.

Noooo I forgot. And anyway I was assuming I'd have to catch it later, my tv not being all that great. Wait, is it even on here yet? I won't be up. ;)

idk what late night tv is like on the west coast! Is it on at 9:30?? I guess probably not, ha. So. You will have to wait. But I think he sincerely freaked out Conan with his epic old man Shatnerness.

Also, I looked at those gifs, and the one with Nimoy throwing a baseball makes me really gleeful.

I'll look it up. That's awesome. It's on at the normal time. Just later than you. Yeah I grew up on the East Coast and I'm still freaked out by the fact stuff happens to you three hours sooner.

It's so cute, right?
