Teehee, there was a question about Slash on university challenge this eve! No really, they asked who the Star Trek characters were from whose initials K/S the internet term slash fanfiction came from... On *university challenge*, people!

Was that so that when someone answered, they could go, "hur hur NERD!"? =)

Kirk/Spock...

[piesecki]

I guess so! Clearly the researchers on the programme are geeks!

Oh good lord, I don't think I can quite face the idea of Jeremy Paxman knowing and talking about slash... :S

Also!! You know on the sims how there's a university prank to put soap in the fountains? That actually happened today! I went past the big round fountain on the main plaza, and it was solidly covered with soap bubbles! I was most amused. :D ACTUAL PRANKS, I tell you!

[piesecki]

OMG that's totally awesome! Bubbles yay!

Also I agree re paxman, scary stuff!

[frightful_elk]

hahah did anyone get it right?

[piesecki]

A bloke from Durham did I think, and pretty quickly too! Clearly a secret trekky slasher methinks!

[silvan_lady]

Brilliant - did they get the answer right?

[piesecki]

They did, and pretty speedily too! I think that guy had a lot of explaining to his team mates after *giggle*
