"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Ah, yes - realised that they'd never been given a home other than a page of my LJ, the Willow/Dru and the Andrew, so I thought I should pop them somewhere more formal.

The Spred was scribbled fastfastfast back before AtS5, when Plei realised that the portmanteau term for Spike/Fred would be Spred, and that this meant 'Buttery' was a perfect name for a 'ship site. After I'd finished giggling, I wrote her a quick ficlet.

...also? Oh my lord. I cannot believe I'm reading Kirk/Spock. And indeed that I'm starting to feel OhMyGodTheirLoveIsSoCanon!!!111!!! about it all. Star Trek will never be the same.

Yep, Kirk/Spock. I've never read any, but one always got the impression from the shows that ... something ... was going on. I can see McCoy walking in on them, yelling at them for not locking the door, throwing a few zingers around, then walking out shaking his head.

No Star Trek since has touched the glory of Kirk-Spock-McCoy.

I don't suppose Fay gets to see the amusing Nimoy/Shatner Priceline ads.

I love Shatner. How many actors make a decent living by making fun of themselves?

The student union building at my university is named after him.

So true.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The student union building at my university is named after him.

Which horrifies me.

I don't like him, because he doesn't seem to have much of a sense of humour in person, and has been pissy to friends of mine.

How weird.

Meanwhile, the college repubs at my university are going to try to get one of the dorms named after Reagan.

I've never encountered him in person, so I find it pretty humourous. I'd've had to change schools if they started naming stuff after Reagan. Or, say, Mulroney, which would be slightly more plausible.

They named it the Shat after I graduated, but while I was still using the building, I think. I was disenfranchised.

It was cute, I guess. It wasn't until after that I started disliking him.

I was at a tennis tournament a couple years ago, and he was sitting a couple seats away from me. I gave him my best you-remember-when-you-dissed-my-friends? stink-eye. I think my father thought I was insane.
