Fandom Random!

[drakyndra]

Yes, I seem to be overusing the word "Random" in my headings as of late. But it is such a great word! Handy for all occasions, and all that.

First bit of fandom random: Apparently, GoF will be rated M in Australia, due to "fantasy violence." Holy crap! This bodes well for the dark and nasty scenes in it, I do believe. I am liking this muchly...

Though it does bring a question to mind: namely, what the hell is HBP going to be rated when that movie comes out? 'Cos, a lot of implied murders and acts of terrorism, poisoning, graphic violence (the nose-stomp, Sectumsempra, Bill Weasley's wounds), deaths, more torture, betrayal, implied child abuse, and Greyback, who's a whole ratings issue all on his own.

And in another fandom: Joss posted on Whedonesque! How freaking awesome! And post NFA Buffy-Angel comics, the Spike movie thing, hints for the future of the Serenity-verse. And the fact it is, you know, Joss, and therefore riotiously funny in it's own behalf is just great.


<td align="center">Fun is most important in your life.


Having a high focus on fun indicates that you value your own enjoyment over anything else. And there is nothing wrong with that. Your motto is we're here for a good time - not a long time.

Yep. Definitely sounds like me. I mean, what is life without fun?

quotation marks You scored 53% Sociability and 70% Sophistication!

There is a lot more to you than meets the eye. You certainly get plenty of "action," but you'd be happier if those who lusted after you were more selective. You hate being used as a general intensifier; haven't these people ever heard of underlining? Italics? And yes, you remember the cruel words Mr. Joyce directed at you. But you let none of this get you down; those who abuse you are destined for a "special" reward, sooner or later. You feel particularly warm toward periods, commas, exclamation points, and question marks, and usually wish to have them next to you. Parenthesis can sometimes trouble you.

My test tracked 2 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender: You scored higher than 60% on Sociability You scored higher than 90% on Sophistication

That's just brilliant. And oddly fitting, considering both my obsession with Teh Quotes, and of course the infamous Quotes Book.


BTW, what time and where do we meetup for our Mexican thing tomorrow, tinyteddyqueen?

Oooh, caps from the CiN special. Curse not being able to see it *throws things*

I've probably put far too much thought into methods of art teaching...I put it down to the fact that I spent most of my time in art alternating between,
A) Thinking fandom thoughts,
B) Thinking random thoughts,
C) Concocting ways of destroying the teacher, and
D) Concocting ways of proving to the teacher that I couldn't draw for anything.

You managed to somehow invent your own language...and can swear in it? *giggles* That's fantastic, do I get a sample? I always wanted to make up my own language, but didn't get past making up the swear words. And even then they sounded too much like English swear words for me to get away with them during class.

Prettiful! I love that word. Fantabulous gets my vote as well. And fantasmagorical, a friend of mine made that up and I adopted it because I liked it so much.

No, as far as plans go that wasn't exactly a winner.

Mmm, spam. That reminds me of five-minute DW, have you read those? "No, Jack, the Daleks are not made of spam."

Sounds like a deal *holds out hand* I'll make sure to throw things at you.

*grins* I have watched it many times. Over, and over, and over. But mostly the crappy real-player version. For some reason, the .avi causes my computer to fuck up. *points to new LJ post all about how gorram pissed I am*

Ah, Art. Great fun for thinking about all sorts of things that have nothing to do with art whatsoever.

Well, it's only sort of a language at the moment. I know a few bits and pieces, but I don't know enough to say much at all, really. A few basic phrases, some grammer rules, and I know how it's pronounced, but other than that, not a lot. And I put far too much effort into working out the swearing part.

Fantasmagorical is a good one, I shall have to remember that.

He for five-minute DW. You gotta love show parodies like those, they are teh brilliant.

Deal. Gathers her minions for a pre-emptive strike
