Thanks!
I feel like I need a new tagline somewhere. "Writing poop-filled pies since 1999."
Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
I guess I can sympathize a slight bit with her complaint, since my usual reaction to discovering unexpectedly that a story is Jack/Daniel schmoopfic tends to be a mental "ick!" and immediate flight to more angsty climes. But I think griping about one's objection to slash in general in a community that's more than half Sheppard/McKay stories indicates that the metaphorical homeowner has left the lights on while vacationing.

The thread is interesting, if you want to see a poster compare slash to a pie filled with crap instead of fruit.
Bit of a boggler, that. And a flawed metaphor, because nobody likes pies filled with poop. Whereas a hell of a lot of ficreaders like fic that is slash. Especially, from what I gather, within a community that's dominated by a slash pairing. If she'd couched her objections in terms of someone with a nut allergy and a weakness for pies being tempted by delicious fruit pies in a baker's window and frustrated by the fact that the baker wasn't prepared to indicate whether any of them contained any almonds/coconut etc etc, then she'd have had my sympathy, rather than just been offensive. (Although the bottom line of 'So find another baker' would still have held true.) Silly woman.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm catching up on Veronica Mars, and I am up to the Christmas episode. How soon did the Logan/Duncan slash start? Cuz, dude, it's pretty much text, not subtext, by then.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm a Logan/Weevil gal myself.

Oh sure, that would be prettier, but the way it's written is pure DuncanAndL0gen4evah!

Is this show coming out on DVD any time soon? Like over the summer soon?

It's still showing up as not having a date of publication on Amazon.
Kristen just sent me eps 11-22. Would you be interested in getting them when I am done. (it won't be that long)

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
I heard a date for this fall for the DVDs.
Logan/Weevil is much niftier than Logan/Duncan.
And I want crossover fic. Logan/Lex.

Oh, and to out-twee LoVe, can we deem Weevil/Logan to be WeeLog?
