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.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

RPF/S, whether the people are actors, politicians, members of a band, whatever, falls under "not my beautiful cake". I guess I'm not totally surprised at the extent of subjects of fic. Occasionally disturbed, but not surprised.

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

Why did I even type the word "Wincest"? No good could come of it. At least "Petrellicest" is funnier.

No, I have no idea why. I don't read it either. But the show could not keep those guy's hands off each other. Dude.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

That was the plan.

yes, and I wished to draw attention to the funny for the non lawyer types.

Oh god please let the rest of this week not be like today. And I haven't even migrated to a new mailtool, and I foresee that being a bloody disaster. I have nearly 1G of mail, filed in all sorts of ways. Theoretically, after I migrate, it'll be possible to archive them in a more sensible manner, but god, if it goes wrong, it goes horribly wrong.

And then I have to get used to the freaking HUGE display and mess with setting so everything isn't so HUGE, and then resign myself to the fact that I can technically telecommute now and not sure how I feel about that.

Topped all that off with a notice it's time to do this past year's annual review (and write up our goals for it, since the software was unavailable until today...for the past year) and UHG.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am not made for fic in general, I think -- some link somewhere led me to a lovely Peter Wimsey story, but then I went to see what else was there and saw something about Bunter and rape, and ran away screaming again.

I don't do fic either.

I'm not opposed to it, just easily freaked out. And probably too easily confused -- I read an official Criminal Minds tie-in book one time, and still forget that it wasn't an actual episode.

In other news about how I'm easily confused, since I stopped biting my nails a couple of years ago, I still don't quite know how to handle it when they get too long. I never cut my nails! But yes, now I need to sometimes.

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

I am way too easily scarred by the fic I can't handle. I find it very difficult to ignore. I can't browse for fic. I need to be pointed directly to it and then leave. I keep forgetting that, and thusly MCR Wincest. I even clicked on a cut tag, because I forget people write things I don't want to remember.

It's just never been something that grabs me, even in it's least-scarring form. People, different and all that.

Tired, fried and braindead.
