Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

I've been working on a song about the difference between analogy and metaphor.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

I'd ask to tag this if only it were true - alas for my lack of self-control!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

You are soooo wise.

But, now things are starting to get fun, in a traffic wreck way.

Also, I think the Plaid Adder may be underestimating the influence of finance on "literary publishing" and/or overestimating the profit motive for genre publishers.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

If it makes you feel better, ita, I *teach* literature and I don't get the category of literary fiction. It seems kinda redundant, since all fiction is literature, isn't it? I mean, I guess not all literature is fiction, but then there's perfectly fine names for the other categories, like poetry, biography, etc.

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

I've gone on digest on BBF, and it's doing wonders toward tampering my urge to reach into the screen and strangle random moronsstrangers. This way, you still get the URLs in your inbox for fic you may want to read, with considerable lessening of the annoyance factor.

Anyway. The het/slash (but not in a porny way) debate seems to have died down. Now, it's just one person with a persecution complex making ripples in the water.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

Someone remind me to breathe? And to remember it's just a list

I have a highly developed and near-legendary ability to ignore that which displeases me, thus I'm watching the BBF thing with a distant, old-timery BOFQ amusement.

It's always nice when people make themselves look incredibly biased, ignorant, and immature all by themselves.

Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy on the inside. Or maybe that's the whiskey.

Put on some Depeche Mode, pour yourself a boilermaker, and write the fic that makes people cry. That's what I'm doing.

Single malt, and I think I'm gonna watch me some 5 x 5. Mmm. Torture.
