......and my first "official" act in fandom was to:
Poll
And the correct answer is....
[No Fair Peeking Until You've Taken the Poll!] #5! Yup, a massive, massive fail on my part. Actually, all of the choices represent a massive fail on my part, except for the last choice for which I DO NOT APOLOGIZE
( Read more... )
ETA: Oh hey someone chose #6! (Which was actually a trick question - I did do that, but before we moved back into the "old" apartment.)
Oh the first one was fantastic! kwritten, kerkevik_2014 and clockwork_hart1 read their femmeslash and female-centric gen fics, there was spiced mead and teas and chocolate cake with no calories whatsoever; eilowyn led the discussion on feminism in 21st century science fiction, kikimay wore the prettiest bra in the world. This is all true.
Then there might possibly been some sexy-funtimes.
Ok, maybe it wasn't an orgy, maybe it was a college dorm all-nighter? Apparently I confuse the two ;)
I made this poll too easy - or y'all know me too well! (Which is cool!)
*blushes*
Not nearly sweet enough hon, but thank you! That was long overdue and no excuses. I promise I'll make up for the lack of post-age and congrats now that I'm back. (I even took pictures of the wood floors!)
I am so sorry that your efforts fell to shit. That sucks.
I am also sorry you haven't marathoned Orphan Black yet (but not as sorry as I am about the fact that here in England we don't even have a release date for series two even though it's already premiered on BBC America and I don't want to live stream it but DAMMIT I WILL IF I HAVE TO *ahem*)
And thank you for the congratulations. You are a beautiful soul

And it was entirely my fault - TIME MANAGEMENT, folks. It's a thing. And I need to learn about it. Because I am kind of pissed with myself because it was the first time I felt "in the groove" creatively in weeks. OTOH - even if I didn't submit, I still made icons. I had fun and it took me places I didn't expect, so being in the contest maybe isn't the point, it's the challenge itself.
Well, if you haven't marathoned Orphan Black yet, then lucky you for still having that ahead of you, because it's awesome. I blazed through the entire season in 2 days. It's just about everything Dollhouse should have been, except completely different in every single way, if that makes sense.
That is the most perfect summary of Orphan Black I have heard. Exactly. (And it is a fucking awesome show and I am pissed off that BBC3 haven't announced it yet)
I've only watched the pilot ep - twice at this point (I kinda tricked my sweetie into watching it with me the second time. And I enjoyed it more the second time which says a LOT.) eilowyn is the one who told me about it and that I needed to watch it. She was right as usual.
It's just about everything Dollhouse should have been, except completely different in every single way, if that makes sense.
I was thinking the exact same thing except about Ringer ("It's Ringer but actually good.") And I've never even seen Dollhouse but my reaction after the pilot was that it was "If Ringer and Dollhouse had a lovechild, this be it."

You mean I'm only one season behind instead of four-six as usual? *squees*
