On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

but after that, it's sort of wanking.

Yeah, it is. But you know, after the way the orignal argument-maker wrote about and treated a subject I'm closely acquainted with, I was inclined to appreciate the wanking as it voiced frustrations and concerns I wasn't able to formulate after I read ginmar's post. Comparing me to a rapist? Not cool. Someone who defends my right to right and read what I choose with intelligent (if, okay, somewhat pretentious) points and arguments? Much appreciated.

Ah, fandom, where you get to have the same argument over and over and over...

Yo, this is why I'm keeping my head down and writing spy porn.

Not that I particularly need a reason to be so self-indulgent, and Jesus Christ, I just realized that it's going to up the fandom count to 17. We're definitely sailing aboard the HMS Crackwhore.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You're just jealous that I was starting to catch up.

(Get Weiss Laid! It ought to be an official challenge or something.)

We were neck and neck for a bit there, weren't we? And I seem to recall not a little bit of egging-on.

I'm not sure if Get Weiss Laid is official or not, as I seem to remember Celli posting about it, but livejournal has been freaktastic all day.

I egg you on for my own selfish reasons. Get Weiss laid? Sure! Gay pirates? Fabulous idea! Wesley/Xander? Makes perfect sense!

And to think, I looked at my website the other day, in the process of adding Smallville to the list, and went "nine fandoms? That's a lot".

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Wow. I guess there are levels of ho-dom to which I cannot aspire, after all. I've got, what? a Farscape drabble and the Epic What Never Got Written, some Buffy one-shots, an attempt at Dawn/Connor, percolating HP stuff, and half an Alias zombiefic. That's nothing.
