drakyndra: The Music Meister demands you sing! (Vulcan Salute Doctor)
([personal profile] drakyndra Sep. 29th, 2006 09:50 pm)
There are two new sections up on the latest bad_penny thing - History of the HP BNF Inner Circle, to be precise.

Also, I was going to be working on my next links list (Because then my more recent recs will be easier for me to find for [livejournal.com profile] crack_van thing. Lucky I have about about the first weeks worked out, which gives me some more time). But I had that odd thing where I slept in quite late, but still got tired rather early, so I gave up shortly, and plan to read my book and then go to bed. Or lurk around b_p

I have also managed to gain a blood blister on my foot, and I have utterly no idea how. Which is odd.

In fannish stuff: If even hearing Freema Agyeman's name makes you nauseated, then you may want to leave fandom, for your own health if nothing else. Because she's going to be around for a while, yet.

Also, the US premiere of S2 is tonight. I look to the next few months of fandom with a mixture of fascination and sheer horror.

ETA: WHAT THE SHIT?

ETA2: Another Bad_Penny section up. This one contains references to boob flashing.

The who in the what in the where in the why? :( I love Freema. She seems so sweet...

WTF indeed. David can do whatever David likes, and besides, Sophia Myles looks like a great lady. Jealous fen, bleh.

Looking forward to your links list, though. :-)

Jealousy, or shippers who get confused about the actor/character lines.

If I get around to it soon. *is lazy*

The batshit on T_L is deleted. Yay mods.

It really seemed to be more about some sort of jealousy than confusing actor/character lines, at least in this case.

Lazy, ah yes, I know about being lazy...

She is a T&C member. But maybe I've spent too much time reading the newsround forums, filled with teeny girls hating on Sophia for breaking up the David/Billie TWU WUV.

Now I'm all curious; what's the latest heartburn? The fact that Freema is solidly the new companion, that everyone seems to like her, or that she theoretically wants to snog David, as just about all straight women want to?

Oh, for the love of humanity! Are we going to have a rerun of "But Ron and Linda MUST be in LURVE, look at how they are on the show? Oh, I hope they can be together!"... along with the psychotically batshit reaction to someone pointing out that 1) they're actors and 2) an affair wouldn't be that romantic for the current spouses and children each one had.

Not Freema, Sophia. The precise quote: "but does anybody think he can do a bit better than Sophia Myles?"

The batshit on T_L had nothing to do with Freema, funnily enough. It was all about Sophia Myles.

. . . every time I think DW fandom is hopelessly batshit, I look over at the Harry Potter fandom and suddenly I don't feel so bad . . .

Seriously, this [livejournal.com profile] bad_penny stuff should be an annotated reference guide or something.

From: [identity profile] drakyndra.livejournal.com


It was someone claiming that Sophia wasn't good enpough for David (as yet, we aren't certain if it was a shipper with issues, or just a jealous fangirl).

That said, if you ever want some entertainment, try this Newsround thread.

From: [identity profile] neadods.livejournal.com


Oh, *eyeroll!* (Thanks for catching me up, though). I will never cease to be amazed by the number of fangirls who not-so-subconsciously think that they're somehow more compelling than insert-actor-here's beautiful, talented, in-the-business girlfriend.

"Well, if I don't like her, she mustn't be that good after all!"

*rolls eyes*

This somehow begs to be filked to "My Favorite Things:"
...and when I remember other batshit fans
I suddenly don't feel so bad!


Any time you really want to lose your faith in humanity, buy me a drink and ask me about Beauty and the Beast fandom. Seriously. We have yet to hit those kinds of levels of weapons-grade guano.

I swear, someone could print the bad_penny stuff (The MsScribe story, the plagiarism debacle, and this lot), and sell it. It'd make a fascinating read.

*imagines what HP fans in a decades time will think of it all*

From: [identity profile] neadods.livejournal.com


Good golly, is there a single person on that thread over the age of 14?

Is Sophia really marrying David? They make a cute couple, and had great chemistry. They've also managed to behave with a lot of taste and tact as the tabliod industry tries to chew him up, and hanging onto class in the face of that is pretty hard.

From: [identity profile] drakyndra.livejournal.com


I doubt it. ;)

And I haven't heard anything about marriage - as far as I can tell, it's the usual kiddy couple = marriage thing. I think babies get brought up later on.

Yeah, neither will I. Especially because said fangirls are probably silly, giggling thirteen-year-olds with pimples and braces, while Sophia Myles is just an up-and-coming actress who only looks like this (http://www.joblo.com/newsimages1/sophia-myles3.jpg).

*snickers*

Oh, the joys of being a young teen. One's powers of self-delusion were so amazingly great back then.

From: [personal profile] xwingace


Oh dear...

That seems pretty much in line with the post on T_L...

I'd miss a lot of this stuff if there wasn't someone who pointed it out. :-)

Ah. Although they do seem to be making a go of it, so I wish them well.

From: [identity profile] neadods.livejournal.com


Alas, I am unauthorized to look at Sophia. I feel unworthy now. :>

From: [identity profile] aervir.livejournal.com


Hmmm, that's strange. The link works at my PC.

*scratches head*

Anyway, it was just a picture (probably from some magazine photoshooting thing) in which she looks as pretty and sexy as the average teenaged fangirl could only dream of.

They're Beauty and the Beast fandom?

And they wank?

Over what in the sweet jesus do they find to wank?!

From: [identity profile] kittenblah.livejournal.com


Heidi would call plagiarism and trying to make money off Cassie Claire's OMGPublishedAuthor status. And then the world would laugh.

I love that my only real ship in HP is Remus/Tonks, and even then I'll happily read them with others. Fen utterly make my day sometimes.

Except the RoseFen, I'm getting sick of bashing on Sophia/Freema cause they arent Billie/Rose. Do they not understand Doctor Who isnt a RomCom with aliens? It is not the h2g2 film, Richard Curtis is not writing it, and everyone prefers the Doctor to be the crazy loony alien, not in the least cause then Tennant will do that hot angry thing where he gets all scary but so so guh. (Holy run on sentance, Batman!)
