COOL BEANS. I have something like that on my iPod, but it doesn't have good wireless, so this is like MIRACLE OF SCIENCE up in here. And there is nothing in my mind that can compare to the feel of turning pages, but FREE BOOKS I will set aside tactile sensations for that amazingness.
Television-ocity? I have no idea. TV-neck. People see me at work reading books all the time, and it is the most fun to bring something like METAPHYSICS IN THE STAR TREK UNIVERSE (legit reading material during HS) and watch them boggle. And stories are stories, no matter where you get them. There's light TV and there's light books, there's angst-heavy TV and angst-heavy books, so being called a dork is tantamount to being called awesomely invested in quality storylines *nods*
It's not like I hate-hate the later seasons, but it just doesn't hold up for me. Maybe part of it's nostalgia, but eh. They are not disavowed as canon to me, which some peoples do, so whatevs. Angel had the seasons-arching storyline, which I appreciate, but sometimes it made just watching one ep kind of difficult, but you could do that with Buffy pretty easily. They're both awesome, that's the endpoint.
There are very few fictional characters I hate. Rabbit from Rabbit, Run would be one of them, not too many have showed up in my fandoms. Which is nice for the peace-making heart, not so good when it comes to browsing other fanpinions and getting hate all up in your face.
TOO MANY CROSSOVER PAIRINGS. I KID YOU NOT, I WILL READ ALMOST ANYTHING. I've read crossovers between universes in which I only vaguely know one of the universes, and come out shipping them. It's ridic. I spent way too much time at Twisting the Hellmouth in my formative fan years. The only pairings I am glued to are Ron/Hermione and...there was one other. Nathan/Kelly. The former more than the latter, which is more I PREFER THIS PAIRING TO ALL OTHER PAIRINGS IN THE FANDOM than GTFO IF YOU DON'T SHIP.
*REPLACES YOUR KEYBOARD* why is everyone in that show so interesting I swear. Even Curtis. I don't mean that in a mean way, I just mean I look at him and he has emotions and a storyline, it's just all I see is =8O when he does his power-thing.
