because everybody else is doing it
Mar. 13th, 2013 07:28 pmSo, I've seen the first three episodes of Person of Interest. I didn't really expect to like it ... except for oh, yeah, look at all that slashy goodness and potential for angst! And I've just realized . . .( ... )
Just popping in to say I'm still here. 2012 has been a good year for me, very good -- but not very active fannishly. (Though it was great to go to Vividcon again.) Fandom is still a constant, if sometimes quiet, source of joy to me, and I'm so happy to be a part of it.
Wishing everyone a good year!

Fandom: Incredible Hulk (TV)
Category & Rating: gen, PG
Word count: 183
Notes: Just a bit of playing with the Incredible Hulk TV show -- in my head, it's darker and sadder and the bad guys did not always get thrown harmlessly into a pile of cardboard boxes. Nor did the good guys.
More notes: In the TV show, he's David Bruce Banner and goes by his first name. (Among many other differences, apparently.) Also, he actually has a fairly nice leather bag. I am ignoring this.
Even more notes: A million thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tinzelda for the beta and the encouragement!

late to the party
Jul. 2nd, 2012 06:33 pmStill haven't had a real soul-shaking, brain-eating, one-true-love fandom in far too long, but I've had several satisfying little flings lately.

From ellen_fremedon: Pick up the nearest book to you. Turn to page 45. The first sentence describes your sex life in 2012.
"Within the 180 target trials, each of the five emotion categories (e.g., positive high arousal, neutral, etc.) was represented in 36 trials."

Doctor Who
Dec. 26th, 2011 08:17 pmIt's got to be some kind of threshold, right, when you start recognizing the sets a show uses? One is officially lost to all mundane notions of sensible media enjoyment?

Doctor Who, end of season 6

From dsudis and everybody else:
Your job is now your Time Lord name. The last digit of your phone number is the current regeneration you are in. The nearest clothing item to your right is now the most notable item in your current wardrobe. The last person you texted is your current companion. Your favorite word is now your catchphrase.
I am the eighth incarnation of the Copyeditor.* I frequently wear Birkenstock sandals,** my companion istinzelda,*** and I frequently say ... actually, I have no idea. All right, taking a page from my esteemed colleague the Doctor, circa 9th regeneration, I often say "fantastic!"
----------------------------
*Which I kind of love. I edit time itself for clarity and consistency!
**What? Birkenstocks are cool.
***I live in the past and do not have a text plan. But that's the last person I e-mailed. Unless I go by the last person I spoke to, in which case my companion is my dog, which is also way cool.

Doctor Who 6x08 (nonspoilery)
Nov. 24th, 2011 08:29 amNothing to say about the episode yet -- still processing. But I had always thought (and a quick Google confirms) that the expression "the penny drops" comes from penny arcades or other coin-operated mechanisms. It's a great metaphor: it takes a second, but -- ka-chunk -- realization dawns; the mechanism lights up and starts moving.
So what's up with "The penny's in the air" preceding "the penny drops"? Why would the penny be in the air? I've never heard that part of the expression before. Is it a British thing? Or is it just a mistake -- someone thinking it refers to a coin toss? Which, OK, that kind of arcade display isn't exactly part of daily life now. But flipping a coin doesn't make sense at all!
But because today is Thanksgiving, I'm mostly thankful to have such a lovely show to nitpick.

Nov. 19th, 2011 07:36 pmSo, I'm not sure I get ( something about Doctor Who )
Or is this explained at some point? I've only seen through 6x04, and I haven't seen the Christmas special between the 5th and 6th seasons.
