Yeah, I was going to say that Evernight, while not my beautiful cake, or whatever that phrase is (clearly that phrase, also not my [whatever phrase is]) was written by an awesome fannish LJer sort, so I respect that, even if the teeny vampire thing ain't my cuppa.
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Yep yep yep to both awesome fannish types and teeny vampire things.

Oh, looky. The Twilight movie trailer is out.
All the descriptions everybody has given of these books make them sound spectacularly stupid. Also like it would make a FRIGGING TERRIBLE MOVIE.
The trailer seems to completelu fulfill that promise.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
I suspect it will probably do fairly well in the theatres. My students LOVELOVELOVE OMG SO MUCH LOVE for the series. Keep in mind, I teach middle school.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
What Meara said. I'm very much in the 'OMG! My people! My people with the publishing! Again! Go Team!' mindset. Since she's one of the reasons I started reading any fanfic at all, back in the day.

I just amused myself greatly. I was watching "million dollar password" and I like to close my eyes and try to guess the clue. The word was "bridge" First clue "water" second clue "walking". My guess? Jesus.

Yeah, where did the cake phrase come from? It came out of nowhere, at least by my perception. (Much like bandom.)

A riff on the Talking Heads, though I don't know the origin of the cake part.

No, I get that. I just wondered where the cake part came from, and why it seemed like everyone was saying it all at once.

I think people are only saying it all at once here (seriously -- the only Google hit on the full phrase is an LJ entry about SPN fandom. I'm'a blame Nutty.)
