I seem to be extra-geeky at the moment. I am blaming the weather. (It SNOWED on me yesterday, ffs. I was less than whelmed.)
Some fannish things:
1) Time Crash is still making me all smiley and cheerful. I have decided that my very favourite bit is when Five says 'I'm so sorry' when they bump arses, because it's so instantly 'ah yes, it really IS him', and I miss that ridiculous polite wordiness. Also, when Ten says 'I'm so sorry' it means 'I have just witnessed the death of one or more people/species, and I wish to express to you that I am sensitively emo about it, yet also conscious that this one or more people/species death is but a tiny drip in my infinite ocean ofmantimelordpain. When Five says it, it probably just means 'hello'. (Or 'I appear to have spilt your tea'. Or 'please don't execute me, we did that cliffhanger last week'. I appreciate that the beige-haters probably prefer the angstier kind of apology, but, well, they are ninnies.)
2) I went to that Spike and Ianto gig thing. Bloody weird way to spend an evening, that, but larks all the same. Tosh was there and had one of those tops that has buttons going up the back, and is either terribly stylish or evidence that you do not know which is the front of your cardigan. I shook Ianto's hand on the way out. He has big hands. Just in case anyone was wondering.
3) Despite really hating 301 and it still being in many ways appallingly misogynistic telly, I am quite in love with the new season of Supernatural. I hear the fandom hates on the new women: SURPRISE! I'm quite fond of them, Bela especially. No idea what they think they're doing with Sam's characterisation, but at least his hair is a bit less stupid now. And anyway I am not really looking at him. Ah, shallowness.
4) I have now seen the first episode of Prison Break. Best Entirely Implausible Premise Evar! Also more candy for the ever-hungry shallowness brain.
5) Oh, I am going to miss SJA terribly. There were three actively bloody awful things in this one (the fucking Slitheen AGAIN, the crapulous ruination of the beautiful Sarah-doesn't-need-a-Mr-Smith-she-just-needs-herself-and-her-self-created-wonky-family metaphor via the K9 deus ex machina, and Floella Benjamin, who was unwatchable, alas), but I have to let them off because there was so much that was magnificent. I found the first 10 minutes or so actively upsetting, and got quite tearful. I want to hug them all, and if they don't get a second series I will throw stuff.
Missed Robin Hood on Saturday. Was it worth chasing up? (I mean, obviously it was bollocks, but was it the good kind of bollocks or just woeful and turgid? In essence, I'm asking did Guy take his top off again in front of Alan for no reasons other than gay ones like last week? I enjoyed that bit.)

Clyde is made of awesome, indeed. I love them all. It's Five's crowded TARDIS o' love all over again. :)
no subject
Sort of? Hahhahahaha. I wouldn't call any of the three kidlets Tegan though. :P But yeah, I see what you mean. XDXDXD I do love it, and I think they're doing a great job of juggling it all too.
I have no idea what catcus thing you're talking about, ahahahahha, but I certainly hope there is more. It's full of win.
no subject
It possibly makes more sense if you see it. A friend of mine gets paid to think this stuff up: I am always so very amused when I hear his 'boring work anecdotes'. :)
Luke is Nyssa and Adric's lovechild.
no subject
And, yes, yes. My versions of the show always cut off after the credits, so I guess that explains that. It sounds like an awesome job though, man.
no subject
It is an awesome job, I reckon. He's always 'so today, I wrote eight comedy sketches, and made a guy dress up as a pie'. I am waiting for the day he finally gets to run his own show.
no subject
And yes. But, let's see. If Luke is Nyssa/Adric, I guess that makes Maria Tegan and Clyde Turlough? :D
no subject
All knickers to size 6XL
Nothing too fancy or frilly, just big comfy knickers size 3XL to 6XL?
Re the hiring: get in line. :P
I can't see Maria or Clyde as Tegan. They've got the curiosity and determination, yeah, but then Peri has those things. I can't see Tegan having the calm common sense needed to do the mental typing thing inside Mr Smith: she'd just hit things with her shoe. And Maria's a bit more willing to take advice.
And there's only one Turlough. :) Besides, SJ herself is hardly a Five type. Works as an indirect analogy, maybe?

Huge knickers for all of us! HooraY!

Personalised thong as seen on ITV and full range of products Free p&p
Plus much Whoviana. Presumably mine are being targeted based specifically on my own comments, so me posting about 'boys wearing tampons' spawns more the same - and maybe it's regional. Guess all those boys wanting tampons and bras will ahve to move to blighty. :P

Granted, it's not boys wanting tampons or men needing bra training, but it's a step in the right direction.... um. What am I saying.
Now I just want to see if mentioning boys wearing tampons in my comment gives me something hideous too, ahahhaa man.
No embroidered panties for me, since we don't have no ITV! D:

Mine is wall to wall knicker ads now, and not a sniff of 'Doctor Who bedding'. Although that will presumably now change.
no subject
At least that's a step in the right direction.
I bet Doctor Who likes wearing tampons and 6XL sized knickers with no frills! Room for all twelve!
no subject
That is all.

Also, I commented on your RSS feed thingie... but should I go the extra click and comment on the proper blog itself instead? I don't know if you're mailed the rss feed comments.
no subject
Am not emailed comments at present (must fix that, it's silly) but have read and responded. Ta! Most interesting. :)
no subject
Yay for responding, thanks. And getting comments emailed to you would be smart, yes. :D
