Oooh, why the hell not...

Name:

ctrl_issue
Age: 30-ish
Location: Greater Bay Area, California, USA (for now)
Fandoms: I enjoy (but lurk in) Criminal Minds, CSI:NY, The Authority, Leverage, Eureka, and the slash side of Buffy:TVS, Angel:TS, and The Sentinel. I've written fanfic for Static Shock and other assorted super hero shows & comics, as well as DBZ, YST/RW, and G.I.Joe.
What in fandom interests me: slash (and some het), fic with plots, character development, hypothesizing about 'what if', and originality. I also enjoy mocking eBooks and other badly written fiction.
What in fandom does NOT interest me: character bashing (esp female bashing in slash fic), poorly constructed fiction, cliches, wank, trolling, flat characterization in stories, poor style and grammar, and people who don't want honest concrit.
Major Non-fandom Interests: writing original stuff, playing PC puzzle games, Apocalyptic predictions, spirituality, dream interpretation, nail polish, food, and becoming a better person.
My LJ Contains Mostly: ramblings about life, fandom, television, and other things that catch my interest. Oh, and fic (fan and original). Basically, anything that i think is shiny for a moment.
Other: My pairings for fandoms range from majorly popular to not at all popular. I'm currently getting OUT of the Static Shock fandom, but I've still got one WIP that I'm tinkering with, and I have no idea what fandom I'm going to get into next. I tend to get active in dead fandoms, so... *shrugs* Thaaaaaaaaaat's about it.

YST/RW!! I feel like there are hardly any fans around these days...

Oh, it's been a long, long while since I was active in the fandom, but I remember those days (long, long ago though they were). And I do admit to being involved in it. XD

However, back then, my screen names were "SummerStarr" and "Sumsum"

Me too. It's a shame, really, that it's died out. I can't even remember what I went by back then lol, but it probably had "Halogirl" in it somewhere. XD I used to mess around on the Ronin Warrior message boards years ago. That was fun times.

LOL, it was totally fun times. I spent most of my time on the Ronin Fortress Bughouse. It was actually my first REAL introduction to fandom (other than ff.net). XD I made a lot of good friends in that fandom.

That's the best part of the internet and fandom, I think. You meet some really awesome people through 'em.

Eureka, huzzah!

Looking over your journal, it seems you're fun. ~_^ I shall be adding you. *nods sagely*

*checks your journal out*

Okay, anyone who links to the Weird Al-Donny Osmond Take 1 is worth a look.

*friends back*

You sounds like fun, you like Angel and Buffy, and you're about my age. Sounds like a winning mixture.

Friends?

I actually don't like Angel or Buffy series, but I like the (slash) Fandom (and fanfiction) for both. XD I dunno, it just seemed that there were so many WTF and conflicting things going on with cannon that I just couldn't ever really fall in love with the shows at the time. I never even fully watched Angel, but I know enough to enjoy the fanfiction, so I can bluff pretty damn well.

My favorite characters (in order) for Buffy are: Xander, Giles tied with Willow, Oz, and then the rest.
My favorite characters for Angel: Gunn, Lorne, and Doyle.

That factored in, do you still want to be friends?

Yep! We can talk about the more WTF aspects of the canon, and then throw in some chatter about nail polish and food.

... DONE!
