People discovering fic and slash is such a trainwreck.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Except for the part where it seems like TWoP invented HoYay I'm fine with it. Sure, they invented the term, but the concept pretty much goes back to the Iliad and even in modern TV land it at least goes back to Star Trek/1979 or so.
...where to start? Star Trek aired from 1966-69, thanks. And the concept of homosexuality goes back before the Iliad, I'm pretty sure.

Dude. Achilles and Patroclus were so totally doing it.
No, really.

It tickles me to imagine that a Paul Rudnick play may one day hence be considered a sincere work that attempted to portray actual contemporary beliefs about history.

So, what set off the Great Penguin Craze in SG-1, anyway?

Leah's Penguin PegB story. Dunno what the inspiration for it was, though.

Does LJ RP count as fanfiction? It rises to wonderful heights.
In this particular case, there's an LJ community, fandomhigh, in which various SF/comics/television/book characters are regressed to teenagerhood and stuck in boarding school together. Hijacks ensue.
In one of today's episodes, an adolescent John Crichton is attempting to explain the concept of "condoms" to an adolescent Lee Adama.
"It's not a balloon, Lee. If it was a balloon, you could make balloon animals with it but you can't with this. Well, you could. I bet you could make a small horse or something." John stops his ramble quickly. "Well, to prevent it from hurting, you buy the correct size for your...little man. They come in a few sizes. You'd probably be a...medium? Maybe? And, when you're done, you take it off and toss it."
