and if I can ID it as his I can finally offer it as one Eminem song I heard casually and didn't absolutely immediately totally-reluctantly love. I feel I have some sort of dykely rep I ought to be maintaining. Or something.
Okay, here's a non-RPS question: Do you have to actually watch Smallville to get the fic? I've been getting poked and prodded about it and figure I could use another fandom to read in.
Honestly, the only reason I watched Smallville last year was to keep up with canon so I could keep reading the fics. I'd given up watching it for a while, and this chick named Victoria kept showing up and I was so confused!
But this year it both seems to suck worse and have less fic out there being produced fast-fast, so, dunno, if you've got a basic idea of the premise I'd say go ahead and try to get a hold on canon from the inside out. I did it for dS!
I can, it turns out, be flustered and squicked with remarkable ease - but it's the indelicacy of the title that did it, though.
Fay, don't read the bad fic. I've got a bunch-- or a few, I don't know, but they're GOOD-- of HP recs, if you're interested. Shall I email you?
You know what I really want?
I wanna learn how to vid. And have the equipment to pull it off. Sigh.
Dude. Dana. Wouldn't that be cool? I've got all these songs I *need* to add fanly images to.... Fandom is so weird. Half a year ago I was all "vidding? What the
fuck
is that and doesn't it sound wildly impractical?"
... If anyone ever finds me an Angel-POV vid to REM's "Lotus", I will pay cash to get at it. Or chocolate. Or sexual favors. Whatev.
Buffy/Mummy Hand. (Noncon.)

t not in the good way
[edit: So... in which direction was it noncon?]
RL, I'll have to disagree with that. This is a forum that's easy to post in. If you want to talk about or respond to a post in this forum, do so.
Don't take it to an entirely different public forum where the original poster isn't around to discuss it.
But that's apparently my issue, and the internet is changing, as is netiquette.
I'll stop now.
The Mummy Hand overtook Buffy, apparently.
Misery. Company. Like rum and coke.
And see, now I want rum and coke.

Yeah, that's him. I'm not fond of it either. It's the obvious "first single" off The Eminem Show. He writes something similiar on each album and then gets pissed off and cranky when people cite those songs as their favorites instead of the tracks he bled his heart all over. Tcch, Marshall, Marshall, don't write 'em if you hate 'em. There are at least 7 better tracks than that on The Eminem Show. But now I'm veering wildly off-topic so I'll stop :)

I'm very sorry, I thought you were saying "since you aren't one of us, you can't properly take a poster's comment in the light we do; therefore you didn't wholly understand her post; therefore you're not really eligible to discuss it". Sorry.

Oh. Dear.

Please!
I don't want to ever be at a board where someone's got to apologise for bringing up a topic, apologise based only on the virtue of the topic itself
See, the thing is I
do
want to be able to talk about the RPF thing, for the reasons I've gone into before, but more important than that I don't want to cause people to link to the threads and come over here being shouty* and/or make people think twice about whether or not they can post. Which is just what's been happening in the
Firefly
thread lately, with all the damned articles about Joss and Tim (whose posts are always the source of squealing fangirl glee to me, I should add). And I don't want the Buffista posters who are BNF types in this or other fandoms to feel like they need to bite their tongue. I cherish this place and the atmosphere that you've described above, and the prospect of it being gatecrashed by angry ranty people upsets me. Especially if it's as a result of something I've done.
But at the end of the day there is
no
way to prevent Jo(e) Lurker from linking to any conversation here, so it's futile of me to get my knickers in a twist. For some reason Embitca's LJ post freaked my shit out, and the thought of having our conversation suddenly appear in Fandom Wank really upset me. Like knowing that you're talking to your mates in front of a CCTV camera, but then still being horrified when the conversation turns up on
Candid Camera.
But then I'm feeling vaguely tearful and vulnerable and crap at present, so I'm probably not wearing my most Rational!Fay hat at the moment. Ignore me.
*which hasn't happened, obviously, outwith a few random posters over in
Firefly.
Yeah, that's him. I'm not fond of it either.
Hmm.
t nervous
I do *really* love that one, that was playing in all the 8 Mile previews, the one that talks about don't-miss-this-opportunity? It's the
best
song to skate to. It's only shown up by "Shed Your Skin". Which the DJ already plays for me every week anyway, with much eye-rolling.

Sweetie! Oh dear. Don't feel bad.
t ineffectual virtual hovering
I'll send you the recs as soon as I get onto the other computer. It's not quite working at the moment.
Oh darlingest of Lizards, could you send me the HP recs too? I'm sloooooowly being lured into reading HP fic, and I'd like something GOOD to read.
