I'm thinking Connie.
Am I supposed to be changing my clothes a lot? Is that the helpful thing to do?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I think it derives from "Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup."
No, I don't know where that one comes from either.

Aha! Thank you, Google. Google says "Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger." comes from Tolkein, so I'd bet everything else is a descendant of that.

As in me? I don't think so, but I'll be happy to claim it.

Huh. In that case I don't know who the original riff came from.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Google has that phrase all over fandom, all credited to "unknown" or "anon."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
A friend of mine used to have two refrigerator magnets: "Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, it makes them soggy and hard to light" and "Do not throw matches in the toilet for they are subtle and quick to anger."

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I always heard it as ""Do not meddle in the affairs of slashers, for you are cute and look good with other men"

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
What Dreams Are Made Of - Dean/Castiel. This has a clever central conceit that brings the hot without once being self-indulgently out of character. Cracking analysis of both Dean and Castiel, and it's got a real kick.

OMG, I love the internet.
Somebody already wrote a lovely Supernatural/Pushing Daisies crossover, so now I don't have to. Although I still might, possibly. Because - pie! And dead things! And the Winchesters in the middle of that candy-coloured world!
