OMG, that vid is made of win!
....although the first time the CareBears appear, and the manner in which they appear, made me make unseemly whoops of horrified amusement. I don't think my psyche is ever going to recover from the existence of CareBear porn. Which is funny, because
Sesame Street
porn didn't break my brain. Hmm. Maybe because it had already been broken. Hmm. Anyway, though - OMG, wonderful!
So far, in my random dips into Yuletide, I have most enjoyed a
Black Books
story called
The Morning After
and a rather splendid Barbara Hambly story.

That was totally awesome.
Yuletide rec:
I know not many people are watching Sons Of Anarchy, but this is one of the more awesome stories evar: [link] (And it's very good even if you're not watching the show - no backstory needed, really.)
That really is Gemma. She got her dead to rights.
That Bull Durham one is outstanding.
It may be just my literal years of seeking it out speaking, but that IT Crowd one has, since I first read it, rocketed to the top of my all-time Yuletide chart.
I need to organize my recs. I set up the iPhone with a bookmark to the random 2008 story link, and have been mailing myself the to-rec links all day.
Also, my written story has exceeded my expectations (OMGWTFHOWMANYCOMMENTS?) and I've determined that, again, I managed to lose at least two conjunctions and possibly a preposition when I was rewriting a section at the last second. Oops?
(I did actually finish in time for a Real Actual Beta, but none of the usual suspects were around, and I didn't want to ping a Hippo in IRC. So, umm, I used my good buddy F7.)

Ha! I'm more or less a slug this holiday, so I hit random, hit random, hit random, look at what looks promising, hit something godawful halfway through the tab, decide it's a keeper, open a new tab and hit random... Stephen keeps asking me how many tabs I have *now*.
