I'm very nearly finished my Veronica/Logan futurefic, and I'm scared because it desperately needs someone to beta the shit out of it but I know there aren't too many fans of the show left on my flist (or anywhere), let alone experienced beta reading fans of the show. That said, can any of you help me? If not, do you know: where else I might ask/of anyone who might be willing to lend a hand?

This post about Tom and Michael's reunion at the Laker's game made my day.

I just bought season 1 of "30 Rock". :)

On Saturday night I went to see Leonard Roberts' play "The Viewing Room" because my photographer friend Digby promised I would get to meet him afterwards. Which I did! He wasn't feeling well because he'd eaten a dodgy oyster the night before but he still partied for ages afterwards and signed autographs outside (I met his three biggest fans, who he called the "Sexless Three" because "They ain't having sex any time soon." LOL correct. The lazy eyed one stared at me like he'd never seen a woman before) and was generally extremely attractive. He told me that Tom Welling is nice and very tall (uh NO WAY RLY?) and that he hung out mostly with Michael Rosenbaum, who has a different kind of chair on set from the rest of the cast: it's covered in leopard skin and says "Fuck Off" on the back of it, and it has a chalk board attached to it so people can write him messages. OH MICHAEL. ♥

First order of business. Please all go and join my new comm!



If you support the idea that we should be able to write whatever fiction we want, join up. Pimp far and wide. (It's a political statement as much as anything else, obviously. Although if I get time today I will try to write a story to post in my shiny comm.)

And just so you know, I am planning to stay on LJ. I have accounts with every other journal service out there, but I love it here a lot and I don't want to move. I hope there isn't a mass exodus because I will miss you all.

The emmys are a fucking disgrace. I hate awards shows a lot anyway and I know I shouldn't get so damn angry about them, but I think it's because a lot of people take this shit seriously. I'm not happy about any of it really. I mean, it's great that Dennis Leary got a nomination for "Rescue Me", because I love that show, but while they're acknowledging "Rescue Me", where is Callie Thorne's nomination?

Mostly I'm absolutely appalled and disgusted that "The Wire" has been entirely snubbed, and that "Friday Night Lights" has been mostly snubbed. In favour of fucking HEROES. And GREY'S ANATOMY. I just. Who in their right mind thinks either of those shows is great drama? Neither even fucking compares to "The Wire", which, as anyone who has watched it knows, is one of the, if not THE best dramas ever made.

The website Metacritic, which gathers reviews from published news sources and translates them into a percentage score, has assigned to The Wire's fourth season a weighted average score of 98%, the highest for any television show since Metacritic began tracking them in 2005.

In more positive news, I finally listened to the infamous Loveline show starring Michael Rosenbaum.

*dies of love*

I think it must have been built up too much or something, because I honestly didn't find it that bad. It didn't make me cringe and it didn't embarrass me at ALL. In fact, I thought Mike was delightful and funny and incredibly sweet. To be a big TV star and be that open and shameless really did make me love him quite desperately, and I get the impression that he is an extremely nice guy, even if he is a bit clueless about a lot of stuff.

romanyg, I totally agree with you that Mike is as straight and vanilla as they come, and I now also highly doubt that he would have had a homosexual experience. After chats with Melissa on the subject I would change my vote to Jensen.

No ranting from me today. Just a stupid (but fun) poll about the CW boys. WHOO. Your answers will reveal to me the kind of woman you are.

( A poll about four hot guys. )

Another thing I want to talk about is responding to comments. Not everyone is good at it, and there are many reasons why: not enough time; nothing to say; you read it and plan to respond later then you forget (that's always my excuse); other reasons I can't think of right now.

If I'm friends with someone and they don't respond to my comment I don't generally mind, unless it was really long and I felt that it deserved a response, or if they repeatedly ignore me. And I'd actually rather icon makers *not* respond to my comment, because it's not like I'm saying anything, I'm just telling them I'm taking one of their icons and thanks. So a response is always just, "Enjoy!" or whatever, which is boring and unnecessary. I'll probably forget if an author doesn't respond to my feedback (unless, again, it's really long), but if I notice that the author never responds to any feedback, I'll probably not bother leaving any because they do come across to me as if they don't appreciate it that much (which they might! But they're certainly not giving that impression to the general public).

But okay, so can anyone relate when I say that if I leave a comment on a post (that's not fic or icons) in a stranger's journal and they don't respond, I (might) feel some combination of the following:

1. They don't like my comment
2. They don't agree with my comment but don't wish to argue with me
3. They think I'm stupid
4. They dislike me

It's more likely that I'll think one of those things than that I'll think the person is rude, or busy or forgetful. Which I know is absurd but there it is.

Am I all alone?

I must admit, that meme I did yesterday about my personal canon totally freaked me out to begin with. I was all, what have I gotten myself into, and really, WTF DO I KNOW, I AM NOT SMART ENOUGH FOR THIS. But then I relaxed and got into it and it was, like, the most challenging and rewarding meme I've ever done. Yes, my focus was on the characters' sex lives and whatnot, but this is me we're talking about so colour none of you shocked.

Recent polls...

You pretty much all agree that episode one of S7 of Smallville will be called "Bizarro". dawnybee believes that if it's not called Bizarro, SV is going to break the mold and give it the following totally classic and appropriate three word title: "Hot Ass Clark". I sure hope she's right.

Who's the smartest/dumbest out of MR, TW, JA and JP?

43.2% of you think Michael Rosenbaum is the smartest. I originally voted this way so I'm pleased with this outcome.

Tied in second place is Tom Welling and Jensen Ackles, with 21.1% of the vote each.

Only 14.7% of you think Jared is the most intelligent, and actually, you guys are probably right about that. He might LOOK like a monkey, but with a forehead that enormous he's gotta have a pretty big brain. Right?

Tom cleaned up in the dumbest category, with 47.8% of the vote, and I resent all of you for this. He might be pretty, but he's not a thicky godammit! He's smart enough to stay out of the limelight and protect his privacy at all costs, which (*eyes MR*) you gotta respect.

26.1% think Jared's the dumbest and Mike and Jensen tied with 13%.

WHATEVER FLIST. There is no way in hell Jensen is cleverer than Jared, even if he is the better actor.

Anyway, in that same vain, share your thoughts on personality with me.

( Another poll about boys. )

I might actually die today. I met up with the super lovely nightchik and her delightful lil sister last night for drinks at my local then more drinks back at my place. I had too many drinks. I vaguely remember thinking I needed to throw up when I went to bed last night but I guess I must have passed out instead.

But yes! Fangirl fun was had and there was much laughter and gossip and offers to stay at her place when I visit America. Which will happen I promise. I was going to do NYC this year but I have to go home for Christmas because I haven't been home for a few years and I need to see my family, and Kirsten, and Rehana (who will have just given birth to her first child when I'm there. Normally kids aren't my thing but she's the first of my best friends to get knocked up and I'm surprisingly elated about it. I'M GONNA BE AN AUNTIE!). Going to New Zealand is very expensive, so I'm hoping *next* year I'll be able to arrange a US trip.

*

SV is downloaded but I will have to watch it tomorrow because I'm going out with tommy_chivs after work for more boozing. The thought of drinking again scares me, but I'm sure I'll be fine.

Things that are making me happy, despite being ill:

- I love that the Mary Jane figurine has scandalised fandom to the point that Fox News, Defamer, The New York Post and various other sites and publications are reporting on it. This has become so huge maybe things might actually have to change? I don't know much about comics, but I'm told that this kind of sexism is rampant and most of my comics fangirl friends have become desensitised to it. So while the statue doesn't particularly chap my butt, the reaction to it thrills me. I hope Marvel's face is BURNING RED right about now. Because it's not just the feminists in comics fandom that are aware of this problem. WE ALL KNOW NOW, MARVEL.

- Nandos for lunch.

I'm so bored. Work is very quiet and I want to be entertained. So here's a poll:

Poll #987087
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 111

Who's the most intelligent out of these hot guys?

Who's the dumbest?

I AM TIRED BUT IN A GOOD MOOD. *smug*

Um, look! titof has a livejournal! He set it up in January this year but hasn't posted anything yet. POST SOMETHING TITOF. Talk about how much you love sucking cock and what it's like to be French and the sexiest man who ever lived. We will even translate your posts into English! 

GIP. I have my first ever Jamie Bamber icon. It is very sexy and does weird things to me. LOOK AT HIS ARM.

I try to only have about five TV boyfriends at one time, and I'm not overly fickle but it does change. Currently I'm doing:

Tom Welling (with or without the beard I honestly don't care): to hang out at home with and eat donuts.
Michael Rosenbaum: To go out on the town with and meet celebrities. Especially his best friend, Topher Grace, who will have threesomes with us.
Jamie Bamber: To throw me about the bed with his ginormous arms.
Wentworth Miller: To talk to me with his voice and to maybe jerk off while he's doing it. I will take photos.
Titof: To have gay sex in front of me for hours and hours.

Tell me who your boyfriends are and what you like to do with them.

Okay! Now tell me why YOU love Mike and post me your favourite Mike pics in the comments. Let's celebrate!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MIKE!

PS. If you chose Pirates in yesterday's poll you are WRONG. Ninjas is the answer I was looking for. NINJAS. I'm pretty mad at all of you who didn't choose ninjas and those of you who did are now in my special club for COOL PEOPLE.

I amuse myself endlessly fyi. I wrote a post last night that I didn't post, because I was all angry and negative and I decided that maybe now isn't the time to be a hater. But thankfully, LJ restored the draft so I can now share it with you:

***

Dear Smallville,

FUCK YOU. I can't believe that there are only TWO commentaries on the S5 boxset. I hoped that was incomplete information but NO. It's true. I am pissed at everybody involved, including the actors.

Bite me,

Kate

***

You know, it's lucky that my boyfriends are hot, because otherwise I'd be dumping their asses right now. It's also lucky that I have many bofriends in reserve. I bet Wentworth will do some Prison Break commentaries. I bet Jared and Jenny will do some SPN commentaries. I bet THEY don't think they're too good to take an hour out of their day to talk about the show that MADE THEM FAMOUS.

They better make it up to me somehow, I swear. I think that Mike and Tom should do an interview together to talk about SV, and they should sit next to each other on a couch, really close, and make jokes and stare at each other and generally just show the world how in love they are. I also think that Tommy should work out and diet and then do a photo shoot as cool as Jensen's and without a shirt on for a lot of it. That would make me forgive them.

Tell me your ideas! What do the boys need to do to make YOU forgive them?

First, before I forget again, I need a beta(s) for my smutbox story. It’s RPS starring Tommy and Mike, but also featuring the Js and a few other people from the SV cast. Anyone game?

Sorry I didn’t post the Marlena Shaw songs last night. I had a fight with yousendit and yousendit kicked my ass. You’ll get them though, don’t worry.

( A rant about Grey’s Anatomy. )

I promised Ginger that I’d talk about porn today, so seeing as it’s Friday and everyone’s high on SPN and SV, I have a question about sex and the WB boys.

I was going to ask who the best in bed was but that’s boring because you’ll all just pick your favourite and it won't be objective. This question will force you to be objective. SO.

Who likes to get up to slightly crazy shit in bed? Who's the most adventurous? Who's the *filthiest*? Who loves sex so much that they'll do pretty much *anything*?

Who's the kinkiest boy?

Tom Welling has the biggest cock! It's been proved! By our very own kristiinthedark HERE.

Frankly I don't really know. I mean, I voted for Tom but there's hard evidence that Mike is also MASSIVE. This morning I fantasised about having a threeway with both boys and neither disappointed. Also, I made them kiss and they got really into it and I got to watch.

ANYWAY.

I wonder if the boys have ever had a threesome with a fangirl. I BET THEY HAVE. They seem so comfortable with each other, and Mike is outrageously flirtatious with Tommy. See, as cute as Jared and Jenny are about each other: "I wuv him, he's like my bwover." And it's so SWEET. (Personally I think Jared's more secksually attracted to Mayhem, but that's just me. o.O) But MIKE right. He's like "Tom's hot. Tom's goodlooking. Tom, you're so sexy and hot and wet and naked." And Tom's like, "I'm Michael Rosenbaum, I play Lex Luthor," because Tom loves Mike so much he wants to BE Mike. And then, like, okay, then Mike and Tom try to think up a way that they can have sex with each other so they say, "let's seduce a fangirl and take her home and show her a night she'll never forget." And then they seduce me and show me a night I'll never forget and then they have sex with each other in front of me and I FILM IT! And then I sell it on Ebay for a million dollars and everyone in the whole world is jealous of me. \o/

My celebrity sex fantasies are also money fantasies it seems. STAY AWAY FROM ME BOYS. 

Tell me your celebrity sex fantasies! And make them good and weird. Because it's NOT REAL PEOPLE! YAY!

We have ANTS in my house. I fucking HATE ants. I left New Zealand to get AWAY from insects. I didn't even know you guys HAD ants in the UK. It's too cold isn't it? And the little fuckers are so fucking difficult to get rid of. One ant? I can handle. But there's never just one is there. They hang around in packs and they're sneaky. I vacuumed some up the other day and Hamish claimed that it wouldn't kill them and that now we have ants crawling around inside our vacuum cleaner. Please tell me he's insane and that there's no way an ant would survive that kind of trauma. *deep frown*

And now for something completely different.

I thought I was the queen of difficult polling right? NOT SO. I've never had a problem doing my own polls. But yesterday, amandajane5 posted a poll I literally COULDN'T DO.

She wanted to know who our favourite SPN and SV boys were, and yeah, Jared wins for SPN, but I honestly could not choose between Tommy and Mike. Seriously, I couldn't do it. If I chose Mike it'd be like I was betraying Tom and vice versa. I AM OFFICIALLY CRAZY. 

See, I think most of you have a favourite. Are there any of you out there like me? Who loves them both equally to the point where they can't do a *fun harmless poll*?

I spent my walk to work pondering and comparing and allocating points. Maybe youse fullahs can help decipher my system and let me know if I have a favourite (though I swear, I will NEVER DO THAT POLL NEVER. What if it got back to one of them? And then I met them and they were pissed about it? WHAT ABOUT THAT?)

• Tom is more photogenic.
• But Mike is a better actor.
• Clark has a bigger cock.
• But Lex has the sexiest voice ever.
• They're both porn stars and they're both naked in my head an EQUAL AMOUNT.
• Lex is way smarter but Clark is way stronger.
• They aren't complete without the other. You can't have Clark without Lex and you can't have Lex without Clark. They complete each other. JUST LIKE IN JERRY MAGUIRE.
• "You had me at *coughsplutter* 'why the fuck aren't you dead?'"
• They're both as filthy as each other.
• Although, that said, Clark likes to, ahem, felch. And yeah, Lex *would* do it, but I don't think he'd love it quite as much as Clark does.
• Clark has almost no recovery time and can get hard after coming pretty much straight away.
• But Lex can fuck for a lot longer before coming.
• I'm marginally more sexually attracted to Tommy than Mike, but I also fancy Lex more than Clark.
• Except, of course, when Clark's on red K.
• Mike seems like the most fun, crazy person ever and he and I would be good friends if we met.
• Tom, I'd just like to fuck a lot.

I think I'd better stop there before I develop a tumour. So now, I collate all the points and they get five billion points each and it's a TIE. *sigh*

Add to my list people! What am I forgetting? WHO DOES KATE LOVE MOST?

I haven't been able to stop thinking about that MR interview where he said: "On my one day off in Vancouver, on a rainy, foggy day -- no pun intended -- I went and saw 'The Fog.' When Tom was in the shower scene, I called him. I go, 'Tom, I'm halfway through your movie, dude. You look so hot in the shower.' " 

And then there was:  "I'm very supportive. And Tom saw me in 'Sorority Boys' four times."

Why aren't you RPS people going nuts about that? COME ON. That's GOLD. It certainly couldn't have come at a better time for me because I'm writing a smutbox story about those two and now I have proof that A) Mikey thinks Tom looks hot wet and naked (of course he thinks so, he's got eyes) and B) Tommy will sit through a shitty movie FOUR times just to see Mike dresssed as a girl. I haven't seen either film, btw, but I know for a fact that they both SUCK. That's love people.

To celebrate, here are some pics of my favourite pretty boy, sent to me by a lovely friend of mine, who prefers to remain anonymous.


Me and Caroline were talking to one of the coolest professors in our department, Madan, about this other guy who's like a visiting academic and we don't like him at all because he's creepy and we told Madan something he'd said and I was like, "Yeah, there was no reason to say it. It was weird. He's weird." And Madan goes, "He's not weird, he's a pervert." We laugh and Madan says, "Weird are the people you can't explain."  I like that.

PS. Has anyone heard from Becky? I'm getting kinda worried.

I just saw Urban Legend. That film SUCKS.

::spoiler ahead::


Not loving seeing Mikey getting gruesomely murdered. He was so cheeky! Not loving that at all (*grumble grumble*). What I *am* loving is Jared Leto though. HELLO NURSE. He is super, super pretty and hot and he looked really goood in this film and he was sooo much better than everyone else. Jared has that movie star quality, which - and this is just a call and please don't shoot me, it's the only thing I've seen him in other than SV but - MR might not necessarily have that. Not like Jared Leto has it. But I love him because he's Lex and that makes him perfect and wonderful and awesome and a great great actor, obviously. However, I'd like to see him do something, you know, *good* at some point.

I feel ill so I'm going to bed now and I'll watch SV tomorrow, maybe after I've killed Calypso and disposed of the body and had some breakfast.
