I don’t want to talk about Christmas right now, because it was a little depressing, and right now I am ENRAGED. WHY AM I ENRAGED, YOU ASK? WELL, THIS IS WHY. I THINK YOU DONE JUST SLAPPED ALL THE CUSSWORDS RIGHT OUT MY MOUTH, THE BBC. SHIT.

Here is a physical representation of my boredom, in HTML code, with musical numbers:
(It doesn't have musical numbers.)
1. We had a Douglas Adams holiday convergence, in my long-neglected kanji cards and as I was fucking downloading a bootlegged version of the Dirk Gently pilot.
2. The 100 Most Beautiful Words in the English Language. I guess. I am heartbroken to see that "bivouacking," "shoon," and "chthonic" were passed over, but it was nice to meet "chatoyant" and "mondegreen."
3. And this is why Sherlock will probably eventually begin to suck. WHAT A MORON.
4. Hey look, a Good Omens fanart that is not noticeably nauseating. Wow.
5. This is maybe the first intelligent-ish article about Julian Assange that I have seen online. It’s from Cracked? I mean: It’s from Cracked!
6. This is why Sarah Palin’s approval rating is down to approximately 3%, even among known imbeciles.

Lastly, many really awesome and apparently insane people visit my website!



In other news! IN OTHER NEWS, Legolas will appear in The Hobbit, which is only right and fitting given that part of the story takes place in Mirkwood, and he is the prince of that country. (Haha, I have been reading Narnia! Can you tell?) I am deeply alarmed by the fact that McKellen hasn’t signed on to be Gandalf again, however, and I will probably stampede later. All by myself. For great justice.

Please, man. Gandalf is the closest a dork will ever get to having a personal relationship with God.
You have to!

I spent so much of Sherlock compulsively tilting my head to the side in adoration that something just had to be done, for my neck's sake. It involves a lot of SQUINTING and FROWNING... It's an art, if I'm being totally honest.

he has crawled so far up the ass of his own fanfiction that he can no longer see the light of day
Is this an inevitability? It's starting to feel like an inevitability. How else could the House writers possibly have messed up doctors + Sherlock Holmes + Hugh Laurie??? You terrific morons.

Foiled again, the BBC! Good show, old bean.
HA. I can't understand why the powers that be seem so committed to fighting a losing battle wrt the internet. Give up, dudes! This series of tubes belongs to everyone, and if I want to use it to pirate crap TV, then that's exactly what I'm going to do, darn it!

(Happy New Year! ♥)

PBS used to have the three episodes for free streaming on their website through the end of last year. The first episode was pretty entertaining. Think of decent House MD episode and you've got the general atmosphere. The 2nd episode was fairly bad. And I fell asleep during the 3rd, but Moriarty might be slashable with Sherlock, so it has potential. Anyway, PBS? and not BBS America...weird.
