02. I can see thinking that a bit, but mostly, it just makes me a little sad and disappointed. But I can understand why he'd maybe want to keep a low profile. The members of my favourite band (Great Big Sea) also request that their personal lives stay personal and all (though from accounts, when they meet fans, they're crazy-nice, and it's not unknown for them to have a pint with fans, or even for Alan to sit in at a pre-concert session). I'd be terrified to meet John Simm, partially because I'd gibber like a fangirl, partially because I'd have to be restraining the "OmigoshJUMPHIM!" portion of my brain, and partially because I guess if he freaks out over fan attention, he wouldn't be so understanding of that. I kind of envy it, though. I think if I were famous, I'd milk all the attention I could out of it, so I kind of respect people who just dismiss it because it's not important to them.
03. Y'know, I just graduated Sequential, but darn it, I have to say--I AGREE! I don't care how cheesy and overdone Wolvie is. I love him anyway. He is hardcore. He may be overexposed hardcore, but if you don't drown yourself in Marvel, you don't really notice that.
05. Yes to the first, nooooo to the second. I can't really see River being with anyone, and Mal...just no. She's too much a child in the wrong aspects. But I really kind of liked the idea of Jayne/Kaylee ever since the first episode, when we saw Jayne crouched outside of the sickbay after Kaylee had been shot, making the puppy face.
14. I have succumbed to drawing cute fluffy romance on occassion, but I will do my hardest to avoid out and out smut or the like. I know that a Toad/Nightcrawler (or whichever) pic would probably up my pageview count, but...eh.
16. I find that pretty interesting, especially considering that not long ago, fandom was considered a very male-dominated sort of thing.
33. Oh my gosh, I wouldn't take that as a compliment at all. I mean, I like Elliot as a character, but it would be a horrible thing to be like her as a person. Ick, it's like when someone told me I reminded them of Hermione. It was way back before I read HP, so it took awhile for me to realize how deeply I'd been insulted (and this was back when she was just annoying "ugly" and not quite at the level of TERRIFYING she got to later).
40. I can't imagine that needing to be a secret. Everyone I know who saw that show wishes the same thing. The world needs more people like post-battousai Kenshin.
43. YOU ARE MY HERO. Aw, and I want to give you a big hug right now. I didn't pretend quite to that level, but since I got into the Marx Brothers right before going away to college, I did pretend that he was my friend. I can't imagine Harpo thinking anyone was crazy for wanting a hug. There's probably a line of people. Especially considering what a great parent he was. Seriously, reading his autobiography has influenced the kind of parent I want to be (should I ever have kids).
53. Oh man, cry moar. Puppets and bad CGI make something not worth watching? Wow, I'd better reevaluated my love of...oh, a lot of stuff. Good writing will win out. Oh noes, it's something I can watch with my friends and my little siblings! Gasp, that must mean it's bad, if it's family appropriate. Newsflash, wanky troll, even "family programming" can be epic when written well. It doesn't have to be the friggen Sopranos to be good, engaging, or worth watching. If you want to think less of people for enjoying a show that has been a classic for forty years...well, that's your problem.
62. THANK YOU!!! My roommates and I screamed with rage when he won the "fan favourite" award. What was that? He's one of the most horrible, bratty people I've seen on TV. Why not Chris, the guy who was actually, oh, nice? I think he was horribly spoiled as a child. It looks like his parents wanted to be so very supportive that they never said no. Also...his clothes are terrible. Can not be worn off the runway.
67. Something about the fandom, huh? The wanky fans get all the notice (I don't have any ships in Torchwood, but it caries over, don't it).
