A pair of memes.  
I want lots and lots of responses, I'm stuck at university with nothing to do for two hours tomorrow evening between my last class and a meeting I have to go to and I need something to entertain me.

01. Name a fandom and I'll tell you:

1. The first character I fell in love with:
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now:
3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t:
4. The character I love that everyone else hates:
5. The character I would shag anytime:
6. The character I'd want to be like:
7. The character I'd slap:
8. A pairing that I love:
9. A pairing that I despise:
10. Favorite character:
11. What are your five favorite things about your fandom?
12. What are your five least favorite things about your fandom?
13. Who are your five favorite characters?
14. Who are your five least favorite characters?
15. What are your five favorite pairings?
16. What are your five least favorite pairings?
17. Which character are you most like?
18. What is your deep, dark fandom secret?


02. BOFF, MARRY, KILL: All you have to do is give me three (3) guys or girls (like celebrities / characters) and I have to choose. Then I'll give you three choices and so on. Please make sure you choose characters / celebrities I know or at least heard of.

I have stuff to say but I'm too tired.

Alternative life meme from [info]xxmegmegxx  
This is called the "alternative life meme" and basically you have to fill out the questions with celebrities/fictional characters that come to your mind. Pick a different person for each answer. No repetitions! (change gender pronouns as needed)

My alternative life... where pretty much everyone is gay and certain people are back from the dead. )

OMG, I love this.  
I put exactly one guy on this list and well... Robert Sean Leonard better be into open relationships because as much as I love him I'm a lesbian (the one advantage is that he can father my pretty, pretty children.) Also nice to see that my future, according to this particular list has me driving the same car model and colour as the last car I drove and I still live in an apartment.

 
Behold... My Future
  I will marry Robert Sean Leonard.  
  After a wild honeymoon, We will settle down in shanghai, China in our fabulous Apartment.  
  We will have 8 kid(s) together.  
  Our family will zoom around in a Violet Hyundai Getz.
  I will spend my days as a Sociologist, and live happily ever after.  
 
whats your future
 



I have a lot of crushes. )

THE OTP MEME (redux)


I'm now going to try and get myself to Monash University's Clayton campus so I can use the Matheson Library and get the books that I desperately need to write my essay, books that are not currently available at either La Trobe's Borchardt Library or Monash - Caulfiled. Wish me luck.

Hypothesis: I watch too much television.  
From [info]shoemoney2night Bold if you've seen every episode, italicize if you've seen at least one.

Empire Magazine's 50 Greatest TV shows )

Hypothesis proven.

Also this is maybe my favorite icon right now, intertextuality FTW.

Discussion post: question stolen with love from [info]fanthropology  
What (auto)biography of a fictional character would you most want to read - and what would it be like?

I'd like to read an autobiography of Gregory House. Obvious choice, yes but I'd like to see his view of the world first person, I imagine it would be witty and sarcastic and probably skim over or skip large sections of his life like George Harrison's biography in which the entry for 1973 (I think, it was the year his wife left him for Eric Clapton) was something to the effect of '1973 was a bad year.'

I'd also like to read both Mulder and Scully's autobiogrpahies, they would be awesome reads, I think Scully would be very upfront and frank in hers, Mulder would be a little literary and be concious of the storytelling process.


And a related meme:

Comment with the name of a character and I will answer with the name of that character's biography.

And possibly a bit of the table of contents. And possibly a paragraph or two.


Discussion post = you participate. :-))))))

Sheepage.  
1. Reply to this post, and I will pick four of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon squee!!


[info]phoebesmum asked about:

by [info]chandlerina
Kate Walsh is a woman who I find to be extraordinarily beautiful and she looks particularily beautiful in this icon, her laugh looks genuine and not posed.

by [info]oddz_and_enz
A icon I made from a particularly lovely photoshoot, I named it balancing act because in the full length shot Sela is standing on one leg putting a shoe on.

by [info]retro_palace
Once and Again was a TV shoe that screen on ABC in The States from 1999-2002 and much like Sports Night was a wonderful show that ABC cancelled due to chromically low ratings. It followed fortysomethings divorcees Rick and Lily (Sela Ward) as they fell in love. This particular icon features Lily and her younger sister Judy. Judy is my favorite character in the series mainly because I relate to her, she a decade older than me but has many of the same issues, namely being single and still not being entirely sure what she wants to do with her life. The relationship that Judy and Lily share is similar to the one that I share with my sister.

by [info]38gnihsurc
This could be seen as the slashiest of my Sports Night icons or it could be seen as something entirely different, I like the ambiguity of it and that Dan looks rather wooby in it.

Thanks to [info]twentyfivepast we now have a long and detailed history of my livejournal. )

And finally from pretty much my whole flist:

Comment to this post with a subject for a top 5 (ships, songs, non-canon ships, etc.) you would like to see me answer, and I will reply to you with my answers. Feel free to ask more than one!

Now I'm going to read my flist a little more before getting ready to go and see Wilco(!!!) tonight.

Wilson/Volakis & Cut Throat Bitch Friending Meme  
Yeah, so after being way too busy to watch any TV for what feels like weeks I finally got to watching the most recent episodes of House and well, now I'm a total Wilson/Volakis fangirl (after been a fan of Amber for quite a few episodes, I seem to like the less popular ships and characters, my OTP is House/Stacy) and need more people to squee with, about Wilson and Amber, Amber minus wilson and about House in general (not that I don't already have a heap of fellow House fans on my flist already.) So friending meme time.

AMBER/WILSON & CUT THROAT BITCH FRIENDING MEME 2008

Simply copy the form, paste it into a new comment, post and then interact with your fellow fans and hopefully soon to be new friends:-)

Ship memage!  
From [info]orangespaces:

Comment to this entry with any fandom. If I'm knowledgeable enough in the fandom to have ships, I'll tell you one non-canon ship I like, one canon ship I like, and one ship I really don't like (either canon OR fanon). Then post this in your own journal to offer up the same responses.

Dude, awesome!  

Your Score: Dr. Gregory House


65% Eccentricity, 55% Confidence, 15% Kindness




Congratulations, you're the man himself, Dr. Gregory House! You're quite strange, and usually do your own thing regardless of what anyone else thinks. This is partially because a person with an ego as large as yours could not care less what anyone else thinks or feels about anything. Unless, of course, they're your patient and they're dying--but only if they're dying of something interesting! You're a definite asshole to most other people, but at least you know how to be one in style, with an awesome wit, comfortable sneakers, and a never ending variety of facial expressions.
