I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I would have paid a lot more attention during Pschology 101 if Erickson or Manslow or whassisface specified there was oral sex at the end of the hierarchy of needs.

I know, right? Someone on NPR this weekend was making a joke about having to choose between rescue by Sean Penn or Geraldo. If my angel of mercy were Bad Nikita Writer, I think I might be tempted to tough it out in the flood waters.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Wait. The same penis, in the same story, is a "fabled staff" AND a "hoo-ha"? Not that they're not bad enough individually, but I can't help feeling a certain horrified awe that anyone would think of BOTH.

Thrive to spite them

What is it with writers who seem perfectly fine using "penis" and then switch to stupid flowerly euphamisms like "throbbing manhood" or "rod of desire" or "throbbing manly rod". Is it like the PG-13 rule about "Fuck" ?

But the same writers end up writing "crack of her ass" or "anus" or anything other than flowery/stupid euphamism for penis and it's kind of ...jarring. Granted, all bad fic is jarring, but it's weird.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Wait. Is this the same woman who wrote the infamous golf-cart story? Because if anything, the writing in these paragraphs are even more hilariously inept.

Is there any other terrible Nikita writer?

Yeah, okay, there are lots. But anyone else on this scale?

Edit: There was also the one with the Greek gods. I don't remember if I posted any of that here, although I think I might have.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I think I remember the Greek gods bit. Something about Nikita and Michael inventing the orgasm or suchlike?

I remember the Greek gods one. It's seared into my memory.

Also, from the ridiculous to the... ridiculous. John, Rodney, unicorn. Crack. [link]

Heh. Shalott wrote a little drabble, even.

Although, I assume Sheppard and McKay have been shagging like bunnies hopped on goofballs... aren't only the virgins allowed to ride on unicorns?

Hee. I found the excerpts of the Greek gods one by threadsucking the first thread.

It's the Pegasus galaxy. Maybe only total sluts are allowed ride the unicorns there?

Ack. Why did 'ride the unicorn' have more than one meaning in my brain as I typed that?
