Generation Kill Primer + Picspam + Recs

[snarkaddict]

Hello, new GK friends! *waves* Welcome to Casa Snarkaddict! My intro post is here!

For those I have not been spazzing out to (which are pretty little, I think. :p), my current obsession fandom is Generation Kill, a 7 episode mini series by HBO based on a book written by Rolling Stone journalist Evan Wright chronicling his experience as an embedded

OM NOM & NOM

Because I did this with spn, I went ahead and read a primer before reading a couple of fics and looking at picspams (before watching the show! haha! *whistlesandwaits*) and urgh! I've come to these three conclusions:

1) Ray is my fav
2) Brad/Nate = &hearts
3) I HAVE THE HUGEST BONER FOR RUDY.

So thank you very much for this primer *GLOMPS* I always love seeing different approaches to primers and yours is ace ++++ PLUS, thank you for making safari crash on me three times because I was opening up tab after tabs on these boys MEN. Hahaha. I shall even overlook your minor flaw in liking the alex/ryland

Love you &hearts &hearts &hearts

+ ooh! awesome on the kino tip. I was going to order the book off amazon because I forgot that we had bookstores here *facepalm*

[snarkaddict]

Hee, no problem! I was *so* not going to buy off Amazon after the LBGT fail earlier this year. I got the tip from a SG GK fangirl too. And would you believe it? Borders' GK and One Bullet Away was sold out! >>>>:< I prefer buying from Borders whenever possible but fuckit, I wasn't going to wait a week for them to come in!

[colourmeshocked]

*sigh* I totally understand the frustrations of the LGBT fail thing but sometimes amazon is the only place to go to get things :(((((

Woah! The borders at wheelock place? Hmm. I think I'll go check the borders over at parkway since it's just five minutes away from home :DD

THIS POST IS THE BEST THING EVER. LET ME HEART ALL OVER IT. ♥♥♥

[snarkaddict]

*beams* Thanks, sweetie! I LOVE THEM SO MUCH!

[snarkaddict]

IKR? *draws hearts around them*

Email me your address, bb! :D

*giggle* Awesome primer! Though, I can't believe you've never seen Oz! It was totally my tv obsession when it was playing and I've never, ever seen a show kill off characters so effectively as the last two seasons of it.

[snarkaddict]

Heeeee! Thank you! I was a bit worried that I may have gotten some of the details wrong. I had only watched it once through and that was done within 3 days!

Noooo... I've heard of Oz before but idk. It never came to my shores (too graphic, I bet). Also, none of my friends were/are into Oz.

LOL!!!

esp:

Ray: At least my mom took me to NASCAR!

and

Brad: And I fucking mean it about the country music.
Ray: You know Brad, you're right. Now is an inappropriate time for country music. I was thinking a little more old-school R&B... because look -- I'm Stevie Wonder! [lowers night vision goggles] Blind as a motherfucker in my piece of shit NVGs! [singing] LA LA LA LA LA LA LA...

:D

[snarkaddict]

IKR? The best part is some of Ray's lines are NOT written by the writers. RL!Ray actually said it! SOMUCHLOVE!

Also, when Ray was singing Stevie Wonder, you really really have to see him do it. *dies laughing*
