I thought this was an interesting discussion on names used on the show vs. how characters think of themselves (e.g., if you're writing from Giled POV in a 3rd-person story, is he Giles or Rupert? At what point does Anyanka start thinking of herself as Anya?).
That's not what making out sounds like -- unless I'm doing it wrong?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm stumbling through LiveJournal, and just bumped into this piece of HP fandom hand signals done by ... goes back to check ... someone named mctabby.

Oh, my god, that's funny.

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies
I think I like "I listen to ABBA while I write" the best. Y'all have seen the Slash Hand Signals version of that, right?

No, I haven't seen the Slash Hand Signals, do you have a link?

Think I've hit my last straw. So, is there any reason for me NOT to set BBF to no-mail when, sadly, the most active people on the list insist on calling stories "fanfictions" and have throughly appalling taste?
And what are some good Buffy-specific recs places? Keeping in mind that I'm cranky and picky and hate half of what everyone else seems to love.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I spent the last twenty minutes reading a Harry Potter Mary Sue flame war. I feel so...dirty.
But it was really funny.
