Good lord, yes. If I were ever inclined to make someone I fangirled something, I'd just write a description instead. Then I would pretend that they actually read it, had a laugh, and tossed it with a smile. Because, seriously, I don't have room enough for all the shit I accumulate by myself, much less if I had adoring fans who gave me extra stuff. I'd certainly appreciate the gesture, though. That probably counts for more than anything anyway.
ETA: Except if I were David Hewlett and received an inflatable Dalek from a bunch of fans, because that was seriously awesome!
I totally understand. Christmas and birthday clutter gifts growing exponentially. But I still promise to throw it away at home.
Although I might keep the Dalek.
I gave Alan Tudyk a get well card once (outside of Spamalot), you know, after Wash had died. He looked me straight in the eyes and gave me the nicest thanks. Don't know if he ever actually looked at it, but it made
me
laugh. It felt nice to give a little nothing-something when everyone else was clamouring for something from him. Don't care if he tossed it without looking, but then all I did was spend a dollar fifty on a card and doodle a tombstone and some daisies.
One more day!
Although I might keep the Dalek.
I would totally keep the Dalek.
Juliebird, that was a hilarious and awesome thing to do!
I LOVE that stor Juliebird.
I once had an amazing experience giving Marlo Thomas a card in NYC.
Which, Juliebird, leads me to a question. Are you on facebook with the same name, because, if so, we have a mutual friend who is tangentially related to my Marlo story.
I don't think I have a facebook account, bonny.
What's the Marlo story?
I think the CW promo people have finally clued in that the way to sell this series is to show Jensen Ackles being a goofball.
Heh.
SHOW! TONIGHT!
I am a little bit excited.
