Two memes, no waiting
Jan. 20th, 2004 11:31 pmFound from
honorh and elsewhere:
Pick a fic of mine for which you'd like a sort of DVD commentary-type deal.
And from
taraljc and
finabair: the Life as Fandom Meme:
If my life had a fandom:
a. Who would the 'shippers pair me with?
b. Who would the slashers pair me with?
c. What would a Mary Sue in my fandom be like OR who is mostly likely to be turned into Canon Sue?
d. When did I / will I jump the shark?
e. Write a one sentence summary of the story that would win the Best Fanfic Award in my fandom.
Anyone who would like to answer can just leave a comment. < g >
My answers:
a. The shippers would, I believe, pair me up with a kitchen stove.
b. The slashers would hook me up with ... come to think of it, I have absolutely no idea. Maybe a floor lamp?
c. A Mary Sue in my fandom would be rich, beautiful, and agonizing over social trifles while taking time out to belittle people who don't rise to her level of popularity. Think of the rich folk from 90210 or something like that.
d. I jumped the shark three days before high school graduation, I think, and have gone downhill since.
e. No clue.
In more personal news: backed up just about everything on my laptop (but forgot my bookmark file, which I will have to painstakingly reconstruct over the next few months), and finally gave up and reformatted it and reinstalled the OS. There are still many, many programs to install, so tonight may well be another hellishly late night ... but I intend to have it all done tonight.
Close entry.
