I have a shirt that says "snarksexual." This is not inaccurate.

I have this occasional tendency to just... start liking people or characters, pretty much out of the blue. Like Charlie Brooker, for example. I'd seen him in things, and vaguely knew who he was, and for a while I just didn't care, and then I wasn't even watching him in anything when it happened-- I just read something online, I think it had to do

I DON'T HAVE IT YET! I ordered it yesterday and then found out TODAY that it was going to be delivered TODAY, so I came home after a meeting this morning and I've been working from home and WAITING FOR THE DOORBELL TO RING. I'M STILL WAITING. But I will keep you informed!

(it's black. :D)

Also, I wanted to ask you! Where'd you get your case?

[mrsronweasley]

OH MAN GOOD LUCK!! I can't wait for you to get it, omg, it will change your life, basically. Not that I have any feelings on the matter, or anything.

I got it at the Apple store, at the same time as my phone! But if you poke around the intertubes, I am sure you will find a TON. Ms. Sarah recommended a hard case vs. a soft one (lol hard, lol soft) and so far, I definitely agree!

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDd

[mayatawi]

You and my brother both, man. :D

I have seen some awesome ones! I am excite! And I think the hard ones just look better, you know? (.........LOL.)

I find the I'm the same way with a lot of real humans, too - barely notice then till they snark or something, then I Notice and like them.

I got an incipio case at fan girl recommendation and like it. Yay, phone! If delivery is anything like mine you may have to pick it up. Hope not, though, and it just arrives! :)

[mayatawi]

oooooooh shiny things!

Phone was left on my doorstep WITHOUT RINGING THE DOORBELL, SCREW YOU UPS GUY. But yay phone! :D

[mayatawi]

I KNOW RIGHT? WHAT IS HIS FACE.

I'm kinda worried now that the real Hawkeye is gonna be a letdown. I mean, if he's NOT fucking Phil Coulson and Darcy Lewis and sometimes both at the same time, I am going to be VERY DISAPPOINTED. (omg my favorites are where Coulson's all quietly badass and I COULD KILL YOU WITH MY PINKY BUT IT WOULD WRINKLE MY SUIT and Clint's all YES PLEASE and nnngh.)

:D

I have had relative success scanning AO3 for this tag and anything M or E, just saying...

(though I should probably emphasize the relative in relative success.)

[mcwonthelottery]

The current tagline in my life is something along the lines of "mcwonthelottery: loves/might BE David Mitchell."

I'm super disappointed that there doesn't seem to be an easy way to watch 10 O'Clock Live if you don't, you know, live in a country where they actually broadcast it because I have a real need for Mitchell and Brooker being amazing together. I guess I'll just have to settle for those episodes of "Would I Lie to You?" that Brooker did. It gave us this gem at least.

[mayatawi]

That is a valid tagline! Though I must warn you that I may feel compelled to pounce on and/or rumple you.

So, um. Are you good with torrents? 'Cause if so, I could solve a problem for you...

(if not, alternatively, I LIVE NEAR you, I could GIVE YOU files. Just saying.)

[mcwonthelottery]

I really sort of love him. A lot. The Unbelievable Truth is my new commuting soundtrack.

I do not torrent, alas. But as I'm working my way through all of QI at the moment, I probably shouldn't worry too much about keeping up with 10oL. I just see tweets and screencaps and make grabby hands.

Did you watch Brooker's Black Mirror? SO GOOD.

[mayatawi]

(oh ffs I just got halfway through this comment and then managed to lose it. Let's try again!)

God I love UT. I especially love Charlie's episodes. And David's arbitrariness and utter disdain for the whims of the audience. And I totally want an icon of the two of them that says "If I did it to you backstage, people would say we were kinky."

You guys are doing that thing sometime soon where people bring TV to watch, right? I can totally hook you up then.

And oh god, I just couldn't. I read a summary of the first episode and just... you know, I love Brooker's brain, but I am SO GLAD I don't live in it. He's a bit more bleak than I like to be. EVER. But it seems to have done well? So that's good.

(Somewhat randomly, have you seen The Thick of It? I think Jesse Armstrong wrote one of the Black Mirror episodes. If you haven't, you must, it is amazing. And the swearing is utterly Shakespearean.)
