A funny post about fangirls.
Great post about history/interpretation/narrative.
I'm still all achy from that Audioslave mosh pit. Stupid drunk assholes.
Watched a bit of Queer as Folk last night, and realized that I've become an actual B/M shipper. I suppose this is a result of all the discussion and fic-reading I've engaged in recently. This was the first time I've watched the show from this perspective, and it was weird. In this episode, Michael snuck away from Dr. Asshole to bring Brian junk food and get drunk, because Brian got accused of sexual harrassment. They were so adorable together OMG!
Not that I expect them to be together on the show or anything, I just enjoy watching them. And reading fic about them. (I keep getting bits of Chase's story confused with canon, which makes sense; I've read it three times, and seen the series only once.) I'm the same with Remus/Sirius--I love them together, but no expectations, duh.
I was never really a shipper with Spike. I'd read anything as long as it was written well... though I became a bit of an anti-S/B shipper at the end there. Well, and I've got a bit of a S/A kink--not that I'd ever want them together, I hate Angel, but good S/A fic can be so hot (for the exact same fucked-up power dynamic reasons that I'd never actually approve of the relationship).
I saw Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy on Friday. It was mediocre, though it had some funny bits; at least it wasn't bad. Zaphod was funny, probably the best part, along with the little clips from the Guide. The tacked on love story was nauseating. Marvin was stupidly designed, but Alan Rickman was good. Whenever he spoke, I imagined a teenage Snape.
My roommate called today and said he's moving out. I don't even have the energy to be upset. Anyone want to come live in the East Village in a small expensive apartment with two cats and a Brian/Michael shipper?
Yeah, didn't think so. Off to Craigslist....
Tonight, I plan to get drunk on Mexican beer.

I have a tendency to mix up my Brianverse with canon quite a bit these days--especially where Brian's backstory is concerned. Glad to hear I'm not the only one.

Date: 2005-05-03 02:12 pm (UTC)He's giving 28 days notice, since he just called me today. And then he had the gall to ask if he could use his deposit as this month's rent. Fuck no.
*sigh*

ps. You know how I feel about QaF, but for what it's worth, I have shippy Brian/Michael feelings, too. So we're very compatible. In fact, damn the torpedoes, I'm moving in!
