I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Thrive to spite them
There is the Video Elite Resource site [link]
It's a collection of links to vid sites divided by fandom. It's rather large and you have to kind of slog through it to get to the good stuff. There are some really good vid sites on there (head tilt is on there) but also some really bad stuff.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty
It's funny that this should come up-- I was just watching some of my tiny collection of saved vids yesterday, and wondering where I should look for recs for some more. I'm not a great vid-viewer, but I enjoy the way good ones can make me fall in love with a canon all over again.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
Or make you want to watch a new canon. Killa's new Alias vid makes me want to watch Alias season 1-2.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola
What's the deal with incredibly detailed "challenges" which are actually, "I had this great idea for a story, with this totally witty exchange and these characters who do this, now somebody else do the work of actually writing it." It always seems to me the height of arrogance -- I mean, you can ask if someone will write a story for you, but giving that level of detail and calling it a "challenge" as though people would be all "Ooh, me! Me!" bugs me.
Just felt the need to rant.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
What Emily said.
A challenge should open a door rather than herd you down a chute.

Challenge: food Too lazy to write my story: Xander says something witty, almost chokes on lo mein and has to count on someone he's pissed at to save him.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I'm afraid I would be overwhelmingly tempted to take that challenge and write a story about Xander peeing on someone. I wouldn't, because it would be gross, but I'd be tempted.

For a second, I wasn't sure where you got that, but I said "pissed"

Because the overly-specific challenges? They make me pedantic.
