some thoughts...

[tommygirl]

It's Tuesday! That means Supernatural is on tonight! Hurrah. Apparently, Tuesday is meant to be my television squee night almost every year. First, there was Buffy for seven seasons in all its splendor, then came Gilmore Girls and Veronica Mars...and now I have hot, angsty brothers who fight demons! It's like Scooby Doo, except there's no dog, ugly boys, or neckerchiefs anywhere in sight. Okay, so it's pretty different actually.

I just finished another prompt up for fanfic100! It's being beta'd at the moment, but will be posted soon. I feel so accomplished, but then I remember I still have 98 more to go and that I'm a tad bit verbose.

Not to mention crossovers100 and birthday fics and so much other stuff! Gah. Basically, it will be me and my computer, together forever, until the end of frakking time.

I always find it amusing when the unpopular fandom opinion meme goes around. I tend not to do it, not because there aren't things I like/dislike that aren't popular, but because of what defines something in any fandom as popular. To me, fandom is so wide and all-encompassing that for as many people who love Buffy/Angel (Me! To my dying day!), there are just as many Buffy/Spike folks. And each could quote canon and make wonderful arguments for why theirs is the greatest thing ever.

I don't know. Maybe it's because of my general philosophy of whatever regarding almost everything, especially in fandoms, but I couldn't care less what someone likes/dislikes. As long as s/he is willing to respect my opinions, I will do the same in return. After all, isn't part of the fun in being on this planet and meeting new people, talking with those who have differing ideas and views?

As for differing views...I tend to avoid the politics in this journal, but I couldn't resist this link. It cracked me up, even though I think it really sums up the state of politics in the United States at the moment.

Become a Republican! If you are a staunch Republican/Bush supporter, this might not be the link for you!

Okay, I'm off to try to pass away some time until it's 9pm here in Jersey! Oh lordy! I'm addicted.

What's the unpopular fandom meme? Well, whatever it is, I like your fandom philosophy!

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Basically, it's where you post a list of your "unpopular fandom opinions" (like "I hate Joss Whedon") and share it with the world. I mean, there is plenty I hate and plenty I love, but unless i'm in a bad mood I tend to focus on the latter.

Thanks for the link. *amused*

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

You're welcome. It cracked me up, so I felt compelled to share it.

[polarenigma.livejournal.com]

Well, I'm glad you did. I needed some amusement yesterday.

We should pass the time together, waiting anxiously. *Snuggles her angsty demon-fighting brothers* Obsessed...thy name is Amy.

Only fanfic100 and crossovers100. I went one more and joined au100. I'm insane, I tellyou. Insane. But at least I have a good excuse for writing Paul, Parker, and Phillip Halliwell now. ;)

You are insane! I thought I was bad with the two sets of challenges, but you're doing three? Tell me you aren't doing Nano too!

[dragonsinger.livejournal.com]

No. I'd never be able to manage all that. I never finish NaNo anyway so I can afford to skip a year.

the meme is going around?

i thought i was just bitching because i was in a bad mood...huh. who knew? i am in style! my mother will be so proud!

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

I think there is because I've seen the unpopular opinions thing in a whole bunch of people's journals recently.

Aren't you always in style, dear? I figured you set the trend! Hee.
