Fandom memes

Two fandom meme's I've picked up sometime in the past.

Soon I'll get to go to bed... sooooooon...

List your 5 current favorite TV shows and answer the following questions.

1.) Babylon 5
2.) Six feet under
3.) Dexter
4.) Due South
5.) House


1. Who's your favorite character in #2? Ooh, tough one. I’ll go with David Fisher.

2. Who's your least favorite character in #1? MISTER Morden. One of the BEST scenes in the whole series is when he gets his comeuppance and Vir does his happy little wave.

3. What's your favorite episode of #4? I’ll say the last, two-part episode. Two Ray’s, Leslie Nielsen, Mounties… epic.

4. What's your favorite season of #5? Let’s say the first.

5. Who are you favorite 'ship in #3? There’s really only Dexter and Rita, and Deb and whoever they pair her up with this season… I refuse to acknowledge that horrid Marla Singer –wannabe from Season 2. So I’ll go with Dexter and Rita.

6. Who are your anti ship in #2? Why? Just started to watch the show again, and I don’t remember all the relationships of the characters along the five years… maybe Claire and Russell? If I'm understanding the term anti-ship correctly here.

7. How long have you watched #1? From the beginning to the end. Decided to check it out after it was advertised in the local Tolkien society’s magazine as something like Lord of the Rings in space, and back then I was really obsessed with LotR.

8. How did you become interested in #3? Because of Michael C. Hall. And my interest in serial killers.

9. Who's your favorite actor/actress in #4? Paul Gross. He’s awesome. I don’t know how he manages to keep a straight face all the time. Also, buddy breathing.

10. Which do you prefer; Season 1 of #2 or #5? #2, since I’m a bigger fan of #2, even though #5 has Hugh Laurie.

11. Which show have you seen more episodes of; #1 or #3? #1, since I’ve seen all 5 seasons of B5. Still on the middle of third season of Dexter.

12. If you could be anyone from #4, who would you be? Maybe Stanley ‘Ray’ Kowalski. Buddy breathing with the Mountie, mmmmmm.

13. How would you kill off your favorite character in #1? Do I have to? I can’t even pick just one favourite.

14. Give a random quote from #5. Umm… “It’s not lupus.”

15. Which character in #2 do you love to hate/dislike? They’re all asses. *heart*

16. Would a #3/#4 crossover work? Woah. Fraser would really have to go South to find that killer… maybe he’d finally get out of that red uniform. Or then not. The writers would have a problem, who to pair Deb with, the Mountie or whichever Ray he brings along. Annnnnnnd now I’m imagining Dexter and Fraser paired up. Mmm. I'll need a moment here.

17. Pair 2 characters in #1 that would make an unlikely but strangely okay couple. Ha ha, G’Kar and Londo. Not a good idea to mess with the creator.

18. Has #5 inspired you in any way? Not really, it’s just fun to watch and Hugh Laurie is awesome.

19. Overall, which show has a better cast; #2 or #4? They both have great casts. But if I have to choose, I’ll go with Six feet under.

20. Which has better theme music; #3 or #5? #5, Dexter.

The steady:
Final Fantasy VII. Seven years and counting. Always manages to throw something new at me, and I don’t mean the spin-offs. Some of those are good, some not. Zack is pure love.

The old flame you don't see very often any more but whom you still really enjoy getting together with for a few drinks and maybe a pleasant nostalgic romp in the sheets:
Lord of the Rings. We were quite tight during my early teens, then again about a decade ago, and it’s still nice to get together now and again.

The one who seduced you and fucked you over and broke your heart in a million pieces and laughed about it:
Poison Elves. Why, Drew, why?! *bawl* Ok, maybe he wasn’t laughing, at least about his own death, but the heartache is there.

The mysterious dark gothy one whom you used to sit up with talking until 3 a.m. at weird coffee houses and with whom you were quite smitten until you realized he really was fucking crazy:
Hellsing. Still not quite over this one. I like fucking crazy things. With big, completely insane shit-eating grins full of sharp, sharp teeth.

The one you spent a whole weekend in bed with and who drank up all your liquor, and whom you'd still really like to fuck again although you're relieved he doesn't actually live in town:
Watchmen, and From Hell, graphic novels. Those two can fuck me over any time, any place, screw the booze, but damn. Alan Moore is one scary man.

The alluring stranger whom you've flirted with at parties but have never gotten really serious with:
Heroes. There’s interest there, oh yes… maybe some day.

The one you hang out with and have vague fantasies about maybe having a thing with but ultimately you're just good buddies 'cause the friendship is there but the chemistry ain't:
Death Note. It’s great and a thrilling read, but… meh. Love L and his design, though. And the shinigamis. Just gorgeous.

The one your friends keep introducing you to and who seems like a hell of a cool guy except it's never really gone anywhere:
Star Trek. Maybe we’ll get better acquainted one day.

The one who's slept with all your friends, and you keep looking at him and thinking, "Him? How the hell did he land all these cool babes?":
Scrubs. It’s funny, but is it really that good? No offence meant, of course.

The ones you repeatedly cheat on your steady with:
Yami no Matsuei, aka Descendants of Darkness. The lover I just can’t give up on. Don’t particularly want to, either. My guilty pleasure of some seven years.

Holy crap, blog entry #100! Party on, Wayne.

Trying desperately to stay awake

Today has been quite interesting. For me, today started yesterday morning, since I didn't sleep between yesterday-today and today.

Went to see Nowkku and her man in the country (^^), and after I got home I started to feel really weak and dizzy. Figuring it was because I hadn't eaten any proper food that day, cooked some stuff which didn't have any taste in my mouth, despite putting a lot of salt and half a bottle of ketchup on it. In stead of feeling better, I felt worse, so I went to lie down and finished watching the fourh season of Babylon 5.

Apparently, I had managed to catch a stomach bug from somewhere. =p And if I'm sick, even just a little bit, I can't sleep. At all. I tried, but no success, so I thought to spend the long night doing something productive, like finishing a drawing I was doodling while watching B5. A fantasy picture of a dragon and its rider. I have a problem with drawing dragons: I ALWAYS forget to draw their wings. I still have several old pictures which have been drawn, inked and coloured before I realised that the damn things do not have wings even though they are flying. So I was giggling a little to myself while drawing, wondering whether I'd remember the wings this time.

3:20 in the morning, once I was ready with the rider, and started to ink the dragon, only to notice that the BLOODY THING DOES NOT HAVE ITS WINGS. That was easily rectified, though, and after finishing that picture, I did another one, and this time remembered the damn wings.

Come morning, I scanned the pictures so that I could add a little colour in PhotoShop, only to finally see the HORRIBLE mistake made with the damn wings. Painfully horrible. Poor dragon. All those hours spent on it, and it's so bad it can't even be fixed. (The second picture's not so horribly deformed, even if it has its fair share of mistakes. Drawing while sick and sleep-deprived is not such a good idea.)

But at least the stomach bug is going away. Yay!

Another thing that has to be mentioned: I GOT THE JOB! Weeeeeeee! It's a trainee position so I'll be going over to the unemployment agency tomorrow (or Friday if the bug's still bothering me tomorrow) to get all the papers that need to be filled. Paperwork. Yay. And then next Tuesday I'm going over to fill them, and figure out all the details. On Tuesday, because the shop's not open on Mondays. I get to work in a shop full of comics and music AND I don't have to work on Mondays! Sweet! It's also a part of the job to read as many comics as possible. The pay won't be great, but after two horrid jobs, I'm looking forward to doing something I'm (hopefully!) going to enjoy. And it's not like those other jobs paid well, either. In fact, I STILL haven't gotten all of my pay from the gig in England.

Wow, that's a lot of text. The subject line is because I'm writing this not to fall asleep right here. Already did, my hand still on the mouse, scrolling down a page. X) Kind of tired, but trying to stay awake until a sensible bedtime, so that I won't be up all of this night as well.
