Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

I should go to bed at 11. I usually don't.

But more importantly, Shrift, did you watch Supernatural?

Is this some kind of test? To check on my sanity, or to see if I'm really me?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I will say the time I go to bed is usually about an hour before I actually fall asleep, so I "go to bed" at 10, in order to be asleep by 11.

Just confirming you have your fannish obligations in order? Also, it'd be nice to see squee from a non-wincester. Not that the Wincest squee isn't entertaining to read, but...

I so totally do!

Also, it'd be nice to see squee from a non-wincester.

Oh, I know what you mean. I was reading episode commentary last night, and sighing a lot. One of these days, I need to write some non-wincest slash just to prove how unhip I am.

Occasionally in trying to find something to watch, I find myself on American Idol and unable to hit the remote switch to get past the thing before I hear what's going on. What is the pleasure in watching these poor people getting ripped on by that Simon creature?

All I can think is Idol is the most recent version of The Gong Show. I hate that the only two shows I watch are on Fox and that I don't have the ability to fastforward through the ubiquitous commercials for this thing.

This is my theory. All the reality shows are the next generation of variety shows. Makes a little more sense to me that way.

I can't bear to watch AI at all until the final 12. Last season I only watched at all because a friend of mine gangpressed me into it, and then I actually took interest in some of the singers, and soon I'll own two of their albums, and.... gah. I feel a little dirty when I think about it too much.

I tried watching the first episodes this week, thinking that since now I can easily fast forward through the unbearably bad bits, it might be interesting. It wasn't. I still don't get how people can be so deluded about their singing ability, but that concept is really played out.

I was reading episode commentary last night, and sighing a lot.

I was amused, but a couple of times I saw lines on the order of: They were so going to kiss, and not for the first time! and, yeah. t shrugs

There's a fair amount of non-cesty slash out there, but not as much as het, I think.

Oh, how the happy fun wincest makes the baby shrift cry.

Really? Because I haven't found much.
