Sadly, I was not there for that. Or I would have laughed and laughed and said what I said above.
Does anybody mind if I pass out?

I was probably one of the ones who said they were skeeved. I am now eating my words as I have discovered the fun of Pine/Urban RPF. I guess it was just a matter of finding the fandom that appealed.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have been the portal to RPF for many people.
NOT ME!
I was my own portal, or pimp, or something.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
P.S. RPF is weird.
(And American Idol is not a fandom.)

I like the idea of Pine/Quinto, just because you can call it Pinto and make stud jokes. Or car ones.
But. You, know. Me.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I am still on the Rather Skeeved side. Which isn't to say I don't have my moments of hypocrisy (well-written crack is my magic bullet), but on the whole, it is not my cake or pie or bread pudding.

Because books.
It skeeves me when I think too hard about it. So ... I don't.
I do steer clear of fic that's taking really weighty personal matters and using them for plot fodder, though. Like, a certain band boy's issues with leaving his religion and his break with his family. Or another's issues with his alcoholic dad's death. That seems ... way too personal.
But reading about them turning into kittens? Not a problem! Also not a problem to read about them all having gleeful sex, either, somehow.
My lines are vague and have been erased and redrawn too many times to count.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I missed the RPF discussion at the f2f but I would have come down on the side of skeeved.

Yeah. There's a LOT of bandom RPF that I don't read, because ... well, because. But a well-written, perhaps cracky AU? Lures me in every time.
