Okay. You know when there's something you've wondered at but didn't ask because you think it would make you look stupid. Well, I've such a question and am going to swallow my pride and just ask. In the context of He's got great guns what the heck are guns? I suspected it was chest, then arms and now I don't know at all. I'm clueless. Anyone care to fill me in?

The reports and pictures from [livejournal.com profile] withdiamonds and [livejournal.com profile] silveryscrape about going to see Chris have had me giddy with glee this weekend. He looks awesome. ARMS! and there's classic Chris behaviour and it just makes me happy you know? So. Much. Love.

Because it was far too wet to go boot saling yesterday, James and I went to the cinema instead. After many words about what to see, we ended up with tickets for Waiting. I wasn't really keen. From seeing previews it seemed to be much about the gross out stuff, and I really can't be doing with cooks/waiting staff doing stuff with food. I've never been able to watch that part in Eminem's video where that women spits on the onions rings. There's a spit trail and it's gross and I get all cockly and have to look away, which is what I had to do today when they did all sorts of nasty stuff to the food in the movie. Apart from that I enjoyed it a lot, and especially enjoyed watching John Francis Daley. It's the lips, and the teeth. They're just....they fascinate me. He spent most of the movie with his mouth hanging half open, and man, I didn't used to have a thing about teeth before popslash. Bloody Kirkpatrick. So yeah, googling him I discovered he was in Kitchen Confidential which many people seemed to like, so I've downloaded the first ep to see what I think.

Saturday was Eurovision night, watching insane people sing insane songs, with the addition of interlock who texted through most of the show with a wonderful series of snark. Who knew that Kevin and Howie's European cousins were singing in Eurovision? *g* Because of that Simply Dance Fever was moved to last night and I realise I may be the only one watching but I'll I knew Mark and Jennifer wouldn't get to the final, they simply weren't as good as most of the others. But Mark's face at the end. Man, he had me all sniffly because he was devastated and Jennifer was sobbing. So very sad.

While I'm talking tv shows.

I wasn't that impressed last week, but this weeks was so much better. The cyber men gave me chills, it was the way they marched in formation. The sound of their feet clomping made shivers go down my spine. It was a good exit for Mickey. He's grown so much since he first appeared, he's shown he's so much more than the tin dog, and of course. Bonus Mickey/Jake as they go off into the sunset to save the world.

A little Supernatural story now. James and I were watching last night. At the end I made a comment about how sweet Dean and Sam were together. James turned and said in all seriousness. 'Yeah, I bet some person will be slashing them' I was like, you've got no idea. He was taken aback when I explained how huge the fandom was, couldn't wrap his head around why people would slash brothers. He's such an innocent still in the ways of online.

It's a nasty horrible no good day today with miserly rain. Still no sign of my new niece or nephew. Kelly is 10 days overdue now and not at all comfortable. I'm supposed to be glossing again but that can wait until after school. I've no desire to change into painting clothes, change back, get wet, change again and paint.

SFX did a little thing on Supernatural when it first aired in the States and said something along the lines of "at least they can't slash these two!"

Oh, SFX, how innocent you are, honey. How little you know about fandom, since when has them being blood related stopped us?

They really are innocent. Being blood related is nothing, not even worth thinking about.

I'm pretty sure great guns refers to arms, specifically biceps. I think.

That would make sense.

It's one of those questions I've always wondered but didn't ask, because I'm sure to others it's obvious.

Thank you :)

I watched the Eurovision as usual; it's like a train wreck or something. I was rooting for bosnia Herzegovina meself and was all sad that they didn't win.

France was humiliated, as usual too. I just - man, it's like the French are so stupid, can't they see that they need to change styles? They keep sending the same kind of singer with the same kind of song and we never win more than five poins *sigh* It's not that I even care that much but it's seriously cringe-worthy, ya know?

DW was cool, though the episode was quite noisy and my foreign ears had some troubles making out some of the things the characters said... I'm glad Mickey found a worthy goal, he was being wasted with the other two, I'm afraid and, like you, I thought he and Jake made a lovely couple ;-)

After all those years with a slasher as his wife, James still can be surprised in terms of slash fandom? This is sweet lol Though he did mention the cest all by himself, so he's definitely not all that innocent, you go, James!

Eurovision is crazy, it's not possible to watch without mocking so many things. The voting is political, some of the acts insane and the hosts. Ouch! I have to say, I wasn't impressed with the UK act either. A 30+ rapper backed by schoolgirl hoochies? What were they thinking!?

I think both France and the UK need to be shook up. Maybe our countries should have rock songs next year *g*

Mickey really was wasted. He was a third wheel and he deserved more than that. Him and Jake, wow. DW is pushing the slashy vibes for sure. They made a lovely couple, and they're heading your way too ;)

LOL, you're right. He totally brought it up himself, it was just the scale of things that surprised him. He needs to learn that fandom can slash everything. Well, apart from Sliders and Hustle it seems....sigh.

By any chance would you have time to britpick a story for me soon? It's trickyfish, 14000 words. If you don't that's fine, but I figured I'd ask while you're around.

They usually do me too, but this one wasn't that bad. Though I suspect a lot of that was because I was fascinated by those teeth and lips.

Hee, yes! It was totally sweet, whether you look at the show through slash coloured glasses or not, you can't deny they love each other totally.

Your laugh for the day...

I swear to you, I thought, "What? Is she lost out camping or something? Then how does Terri know she's uncomfortable?"

*headsmack!* Good grief, Linda, get a clue! Sheesh!

Okay, now that we're on the same track -- yeah, I'll just bet she is. My sympathies to her, and wishes for things to get moving.

It was so cute, wasn't it?

couldn't wrap his head around why people would slash brothers

Oh bless! I'm afraid that I have told Matt from day one how sexy the slashing of the brothers was, so he was under no illusions from the start, lol!

He should know this, but keeps forgetting. He needs to spend more time in fandom I think.

I watch it too! I was sad enough to record it whilst I was away so that I could catch up when I got home (can't believe I've just admitted to that *hangs head in shame*). Much though I like JP and Stacey (?) I think it's about time they left the competition. They're being out-danced by the others more and more each week. Who are you hoping will win?

YAY! I'm so glad. I have a series link on my Sky Plus. *hangs head too*

I agree, JP and Stacey need to go. JP especially has become so much better, but compared to the others they're just not cutting it. How they got through last week I'll never know.

I really like Darren and Lana, but wouldn't mind Darrien and Hollie winning either. I'm not keen on Ben and Stephannie. She's okay but he's turning me off him. He thinks he's it and he so isn't.

JP is the one person that really stood out for me in the audition stages of the show. His freestyle stuff is jawdropping but they must go. My vote goes to Darrien and Hollie.

Agree with you on the Ben thing. As my other half put it Ben is the president and founding member of his own fan club!

JP floors me when he can do the style of dance he's used to. Some of his moves are just, whoa!

As my other half put it Ben is the president and founding member of his own fan club!

Your other half's so right! Ben's got such a big ego I'm surprised he can dance at all.
