Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

No, no I did not.

I need to stop kidding myself; I'm signing up for Yueltide. Even with my other commitments, it's kind of inevitable. Now to figure out what fandoms I want to offer vs. what ones I want to read ...

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I have been reading Glee fanfics, and have discovered a pet peeve that annoys me even more than "the blonde" or "the younger man". It is "The Latina".

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Hah. Thanks, Dana. That's almost as good as Dogs in Elk.

Laura Shapiro has posted a rather scathing indictment of the Bad Boy as Woobie trope in fandom: [link]

It's Laura, so it's brilliant.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

That is awesome and sums up my feelings about all three characters perfectly.

Because books.

Did you see that Gashlycrumb Tinies is an eligible fandom?

Are only the fandoms listed in the link you posted eligible?
