Swiped from the lovely austen:

Ask me fandom-related questions in the comments. They can be fandom specific, general, or about fandom/lj stuff/fic writing/etc. in general. Questions can be as wacky as you want. Ask me about tv shows, characters, fanfic in general, fandom issues/meta, anything about any of my stories specifically. Whatever you ( Read more... )

(This is my dad's fucking favorite joke from when he was a kid. Some, like, ice cream man told it to him. It's really fucking stupid.)

Why is an apple?

Also: FOR REAL: five people on your 'list'
top three TV characters who'd make terrible significant others
most meaningful song

idk, why is an apple?

My list? HOO BOY. I remember when this first happened on Friends and now it's an official thing. Anyway:

1. Gillian Anderson
2. Elizabeth Mitchell
3. Anna Torv
4. Anne Hathaway
5. Archie Panjabi

**Allison Janney is missing from the list until she sorts out her hair.

Three terrible S.O.s:
1. Kalinda Sharma - you would literally know nothing about what the hell was going on
2. James Wilson - you would smother him in his sleep, let's be honest.
3. Jack Shepherd - that smugness wouldn't be terribly endearing.

Song? Hmm, "Old College Try" by the Mountain Goats. It hurts on all the levels.

Because a banana has no seeds.

:/ He likes to tell it a lot.

No Jane Lynch? Kind of surprised, though you do have good taste.

Do you want to upload that for me? <3

I need that icon. I'm surrounded by idiots.

Any fandoms you're almost embarrassed to admit you've participated in? You know, crazy little ones in your youth when you first discovered the Internet? :) (In the interest of full disclosure, I have one - M*A*S*H. Damn you, daily marathons on The Hallmark Channel.)

damelola January 20 2011, 02:20:45 UTC

Ooh, let's see!

I was pretty active in the X-Files fandom when I first got online, though not too much shame there ;)

My most embarrassing obsession (pre proper fandom I suppose) was crappy British soap Emmerdale. So bad, I can't even...

chippers87 January 20 2011, 02:28:04 UTC

Ooh, soap operas. My friends in middle school were into Passions. Why I tolerated and gave into a soap about witches and little people, I'll never know.

spyglass_ January 20 2011, 02:25:15 UTC

Oooh. How about: What are your five current "dream" crossovers that need to happen ASAP?

damelola January 20 2011, 02:42:03 UTC

Here we go:

1. My current OBSESSION is any combination of X-Files/Fringe/V wherein my favourite Female Fibbies have shenanigans of some kind. Cannot get enough of this.

2. The West Wing/V - wouldn't it be great to have OUR guys dealing with the whole interspace relations.

3. The Good Wife/ER - Doug Ross meeting Alicia Florrick? Um, yes please.

4. Castle/V - Erica would bitchslap Castle so fast.

5. Rizzoli & isles/Fringe - for geography, and because Jane hates Feds a bit.

I would be SO ON BOARD with Erica bitchslapping Castle. #irrationalhatredforcastle

gingasaur January 20 2011, 02:47:03 UTC

I'm glad you didn't classify Murphy as an embarrassing fandom.

oh my god I don't even know what to ask you, I just wanted to say that. I am very tired.

damelola January 20 2011, 02:55:46 UTC

Not embarrassing: JUST AWESOME.

girlie_girl_23 January 20 2011, 04:01:57 UTC

Favorite personal/head canon for a character/ship?

In the case of a zombie apocalypse who would you rather have with you, Juliet Burke or Erica Evans?

First fandom of memory?

damelola January 20 2011, 16:57:15 UTC

Ooh, you give good question girl.

Miranda Priestly supplemented her income early in her career by singing in clubs. idek, but there you have it.

Toughie - I'm going to go with Juliet I think, because in extreme circumstances Erica's conscience might slow us down. Let's face it, Juliet would probably form an alliance with the zombies until it was time to double-cross them. Also, she has mad first aid skills.

You know, it was probably the WWF wrestling stuff, as mad as that sounds? My brother was mad into it, and it became a competitive thing to see who could know most about all the wrestlers and we spent ages plotting out hypothetical fights etc. I'd forgotten about that, how odd.
