Jun. 3rd, 2009 12:12 pmI think the point where you have four different tabs open at different skip numbers on your flist is the time you say, I give.
It's still beautiful over here, warm and sunny and I'm feeling very chilled and mellow right now.
Mikey continues to own my heart. His tweet about being an uncle ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥♥
Over at
mikeyway_daily two graphic entries have been posted so far and I'm about to do another. I'm still amazed by how much talent people have, it's really quite amazing. So go, check them out, vote, and if you do, let the artists know you like their work.
I've just read a very lovely Frank and Mikey snippet on friendsfriends. BFFs ftw!
Have two memes I grabbed from the flist.
1. You can ONLY answer 'Yes' or 'No'.
2. You are NOT ALLOWED to explain ANYTHING unless someone messages or comments you and asks—and, believe me, the temptation to explain some of these will be overwhelming. Nothing is exactly as it seems.

Date: 2009-06-03 11:41 am (UTC)Also: hi. :D
no subject
Date: 2009-06-03 12:03 pm (UTC)I can do bandom.
A character(s) I like: Mikey. You may not have noticed this, I try to keep it on the down-low.
A character(s) I dislike: None really. Andy makes me think, wtf? at times, but I don't dislike him.
Character I love that other people don't: Well, it's not like he's hated by fandom at large but I really like Pete. More than that, I respect him. People seem to get stuck on his blogs or tweets but he runs this huge company, is a great friend to many people, loves his wife and son and tries his hardest to make the world a better place. He's pulled himself back from a really dark place and obviously still struggles with many demons, but he keeps on going. I think that's awesome. I don't get people that hate him out of hand.
Character everyone else loves that I don't: Again, it doesn't really apply.
Character with the best hair: Mikey. I love Mikey's hair and that he takes risks with it. He made the bird's nest work. The swoosh, the point. I could go on. Awesome hair. Closely followed by Ray's curls of wonder and Bob's lady locks.
Character with the best eyes: Pete.
Character with the best smile: Pete, his teeth bring light to the world :D
Character I'd kiss: Mikey.
A pairing(s) I like: Okay, here we go. ♥ Mikey/Frank ♥ ♥ Mikey/Pete ♥ Mikey/Gerard Mikey/Bob Mikey/Ray Mikey/Ryan Mikey/Jon Pete/Joe Brendon/Spencer Ryan/Spencer
A pairing I dislike: It's not a case of dislike because I read it, but Gerard/Frank. Sure they kiss on stage but I think there's so many other pairings that make sense. Why is there not more Mikey/Frank set when they were living together?! This perplexes me. Or Gerard/Bob. Why does Ray not get more sex? I know he was anti slash in that interview but that's never stopped people.

Hear, hear! Sometimes I really, really, REALLY wished that all the good writers that spend their time writing Frank/Gerard would spend it writing Bob/Gerard instead.

Date: 2009-06-03 11:47 am (UTC)So what's you Spin the Bottle story? *g*
no subject
Date: 2009-06-03 12:23 pm (UTC)Back to the comment at hand.
We used to play Spin the Bottle when I was in early secondary school. It was a lot of awkward closed mouthed kissing that never led to anything but lots of laughing. Sadly there was no mega make-out sessions like in fic *g*
A character(s) I like: Reid is my favourite, but it's a show where I like everyone.
A character(s) I dislike: I have to admit, it took me a while to warm to Rossi. He didn't fit in and the show felt weird without Gideon and he was all mysterious and annoying. But then he showed he could be warm and relaxed around the team until I realised that yeah, I did like him after all.
Character I love that other people don't: I'm not in the fandom enough to know who's disliked, but I have seen people mention they don't see anything positive in Reid, which astounded me and made me wonder if we watch the same show.
Character everyone else loves that I don't: It feels like a cop out, but I don't dislike anyone.
Character with the best hair: It was close between Reid and Garcia, but Garcia. I love how she styles it. I want her to do my hair.
Character with the best eyes: Derek.
Character with the best smile: Derek.
Character I'd kiss: Reid.
A pairing(s) I like: Morgan/Reid I love Morgan/Garcia, but in a non-sexual way.
A pairing I dislike: The thought of Rossi/Reid makes me want to back away slowly.

Date: 2009-06-03 12:33 pm (UTC)A character(s) I dislike: Now don't hit me, but until this season I got annoyed with Hodges. Thankfully he's not as irritating now he's not crushing on Grissom.
Character I love that other people don't: I like Sara. The thing with Grissom came out of nowhere but as a character she was good. Also, Archie. We need more Archie.
Character everyone else loves that I don't: I'm saying Hodges again. The memories of him fawning over Grissom are hard to erase.
Character with the best hair: Greg. The spikes, the curls. He rocks any style.
Character with the best eyes: Greg. He has gorgeous dark eyes.
Character with the best smile: Nick.
Character I'd kiss: Greg
A pairing(s) I like: Nick/Greg, also Grissom/Greg, Archie/Greg and Warrick/Greg
A pairing I dislike:Greg/Riley. There's far too much of it at the pit of voles.

Date: 2009-06-03 03:18 pm (UTC)A character(s) I like: Harper! He's made of awesome.
A character(s) I dislike: By the end, Dylan. He was so good in the early seasons, then changed to someone that annoyed me. See, told you the answers were the same.
Character I love that other people don't: Some people thought Harper was irritating. I thought those people were insane.
Character everyone else loves that I don't: Dylan was supposed to be the hero but I don't know if everyone loved him. I think his faults were well known.
Character with the best hair: Tyr, though Harper's spikes were cool.
Character with the best eyes: Tyr.
Character with the best smile: I'm going for Harper, he had a cheeky smile.
Character I'd kiss: Harper! And yes, Tyr. Physically they couldn't be further apart so it's not about looks, but spark.
A pairing(s) I like: Harper/Tyr, Harper/Dylan. I should have replied before you /o\
A pairing I dislike: Harper/Tyr, two alpha males, it's not going to happen.

Date: 2009-06-03 03:28 pm (UTC)You mean Dylan/Tyr at the end, right?

Date: 2009-06-03 03:31 pm (UTC)A character(s) I like: Tom Paris! I loved him so much.
A character(s) I dislike: None of them really, Chakotay could get a bit boring and annoying at times, but that was just him. Unless it was Chak from the ep The Fight. He could go space himself!
Character I love that other people don't: I like Neelix, he's fun, loyal and a good friend. Sadly other people don't see it that way.
Character everyone else loves that I don't: 7of9. I don't hate her but I didn't think she was anything special.
Character with the best hair: Janeway in the early seasons, she had a bun of steel!
Character with the best eyes: Harry. Such gorgeous dark eyes.
Character with the best smile: None really stand out, maybe Kes.
Character I'd kiss: Tom!
A pairing(s) I like: Chakotay/Paris, Paris/Kim, Paris/Torres.
A pairing I dislike: Seven/Chakotay, and it was canon. WHY!?

Date: 2009-06-05 10:28 pm (UTC)As for Janeway's hair: gorgeous indeed!

Date: 2009-06-03 04:01 pm (UTC)A character(s) I like: Chris! And Kevin. They're my favourites. Though I suspect you know that.
A character(s) I dislike: No one. Wait, I've thought of one. Aaron Carter. The weasel.
Character I love that other people don't: Well, I like Wade and people seem to enjoy disliking him. I wouldn't go as far as I'd love him, though.
Character everyone else loves that I don't: No one I can think of.
Character with the best hair: Kevin. When it was long he had the best hair in the world. I also like Justin's bleached curls, especially under a bedazzled bandana.
Character with the best eyes: Chris.
Character with the best smile: Chris when he had his braces \o/
Character I'd kiss: Chris. That would be lovely.
A pairing(s) I like: Chris/JC, Chris/Lance, Chris/Joey, Chris/Justin, Chris/Kevin, Chris/Howie, Chris/AJ, Chris/Nick, Chris/Lamp.
A pairing I dislike: I've never been able to get away with JoLa. They're such best friends and it should work, but it just doesn't.
no subject
Date: 2009-06-03 04:17 pm (UTC)If you could see the {sadface} I'm making right now, you big meanie.
I've never been able to get away with JoLa.
I know what you mean. I always feel like I should write more JoLa, but somehow it doesn't happen as easily as other pairings.
Also, ooh, when were you on TV?

Date: 2009-06-04 12:56 pm (UTC)The marching/protesting was when they took the Wasps away from Durham. I was part of a protest group and we held hands around Durham Cathedral for press attention, and marched through town, and was nearly knocked down by the new rink owners who drove their car at the group, because they were insane.
