YAY!
I really do. My recording of the one just before that got messed up, but last night I finally watched it on the NBC site, so now I can watch the others.
Sometimes I miss having powers... Oh. Oh! I know what this is! This is peer pressure! Any second now you're gonna make me smoke tobacco and--and have drugs!

Fan Fiction II: Great story! Where's the sequel?
This thread is for fanfic recs, links, and discussion, but not for actual posting of fanfic.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I just had a dream that an entire fanfic community existed around a story I wrote in Junior High. I was horrified because it was an embarassingly bad story and there were all these people...you people! Demanding that I write more. But then Daniel Craig appeared and told me that everyone knows you should never listen to your critics but you should especially never listen to your fans.
No more tomato, avocado and onion salad before bed!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
If that's what it takes to get Daniel Craig to show up in my dreams I may have to overcome my dislike of avocado.

yeah but he was fully clothed and merely offered advice.
edit: but your avocado may vary. Or maybe it was the balsamic vinaigrette.

Hmm. Secret identity of Bad Nikita Writer?
Maybe this is why she hasn't been around any more. Maybe she's busy churning out awful romance novels.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Oh, dear Lord, that's brain-wreckingly awful. And eerily Nikita-esque. How is it even possible that excellent Buffista writers like Susan and erika are still fighting their way toward that first publication when this idiot has managed to rook some publishing house into forking over money for multiple horrid novels? How could she possibly get even a single book deal, let alone a stack of them, in anyplace but Bizarro World?

The punchline to the joke is that the people at Smart Bitches, Trashy Books have caught the author plagiarizing various research articles about Native American culture, pretty much dropping passages wholesale into her books.
Which probably proves that it's not BNW, since I doubt she ever did any research.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
What amuses me is that one of the articles she apparently plagiarized was about ferrets. Ferrets.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Not just any ferrets, Anne, Black-Footed Ferrets.

Endangered black-footed ferrets, no less.
This might be my favorite Yuletide story this year: [link]
Because it's perfect Max Headroom, perfect voices and a plot that's all commentary on vidding and corporate ownership of the media.
... well, okay, it's also Edison/Bryce, but it's not explicit, and the story does in fact acknowledge the age issue. Still, you could read 3/4 of the way through the story and get most of the good stuff.
