don't be dull, be fannish

I just received this spam over AIM:

"Dicks are isomorphic to the Olympics, but of course this is idiotic."

What should I think of that? *chortles*

-> I have no idea why I used this subject. I just couldn't figure out what to write in there and I hate to leave the line empty. Me anal retentive? No!

-> I just stumbled across the People's Choice Awards for the year 2008 site and it was awesome to find out that Stargate Atlantis won the "Favorite Sci-fi Show" category! :) On the other hand, Moonlight won the "Favorite New TV Drama" category and in the end, it was canceled... But it's still awesome for SGA *vbg*

-> Supernatural Actor Jensen Ackles Makes it to Emmy "Short List" Ballot. Awesome. That's the sort of positive promo Supernatural needs!

-> I didn't even start reading the big-bang fics yet! *whimpers*

-> To-Do Tattoo. People have some weird ideas, really XP

* Grandma of the Day! XD

* I'm reading "Dead Girl's Dance" by Rachel Caine at the moment and gosh, did it give me creepy dreams! O.O

* Still no final ratings for Thursday *pouts* I'm curious about Reaper because it's really hard to believe that it would gain over 400 thousands (20% more) viewers in one week...

* I'm still staying spoiler-free for SPN. But should you come across any news indicating that Kripke is finally killing off Bela or that Bela won't be in S4 or any other joyful news like that, let me know ;D

* And The Llama Llama Song - just because it's awesome! XD

Monstropedia! This is like the perfect place for SPN lovers!

Reading A. J. Butcher's "The Frankenstein's Factory", I realized that young adults books aren't anything for me anymore.

Supernatural fic rec, GEN --> "this road is wrapped around me, and i wear it like a chain" by lyra_wing. He knows that he has to find Sam Winchester, he just doesn't remember why. Awesome!

Ratings:
Gossip Girl (repeat) 1.19 mil., 0.5/1
Pussycat Dolls (new) 1.68 mil., 0.8/2
Canterbury’s Law (premiere) 7.68 mil., 1.7/5
New Amsterdam (new) 8.78 mil., 2.5/6

The ratings of New Amsterdam so far?
March 4 - 13.66 mil., March 6 - 10.57 mil., March 10 - 8.78 mil.
That doesn't look good.

I wonder, my dear friends, when a man turns genderswap-ish into a woman and in this female body falls in love with a man... Is it het or slash? *scratches head* I mean, the sex will be obviously het but the love part?

According to Pifeedback, Smallville is down 14% and Supernatural "only" 5% from a year ago. In percents, it doesn't look that bad, doesn't it?

Oh, and final numbers:
Smallville 4.1 mil., 1.8/5 Adults
Supernatural 2.68 mil., 1.1/3 Adults, retention rate 65%

At least SPN didn't drop even more like in the previous weeks. Oh, and from what I heard, big parts of two states lost their electricity/CW feed because of a tornado on Thursday evening, so hopefully, next week will be better *crosses fingers*

And another ouch!, this time for Women's Murder Club fans... According to Ausiello:
No additional episodes expected for this season. Future TBD, although one Club member admits, "We're terrified that it's over for us." *sighs*

As it stands, Blood Ties and Women's Murder Club are basically gone. Chuck isn't doing really great in ratings. Heroes and Numb3rs somehow lost me again. Bones and Moonlight are good but not something that I would jump out ouf the window to watch. Terminator: TSCC I have yet to start watching again. With Stargate: Atlantis I'm so behind that I started watching it from the very beginning again. Eureka is pretty much a bust this season because they would have to be already filming to be able to start airing new eps on schedule.

And that leaves what? Supernatural, NCIS and Psych. And Torchwood of course which is British. Well, there is one positive thing about that: I might start watching anime again XD

For some weird reason, I have to think about yummy stuff at the moment...

Like Pikao, condensed sweetened cocoa milk - you can buy it in a tube and suckle it right from it or in a can and eat it with a spoon *drools* It's this really thick, gooey, dark brown mass (you can't call it a fluid anymore) and once you taste it, you can't get enough!

Or honey, but the real Czech honey from Czech beekeepers. It's more expensive than the Tesco or whatever brands but it's really dark and thick and when you smear it on a wholemeal roll with a very thin layer of margarine and drink white, unsweetened coffee to it... *drools some more*

Or the chocolate Studentská pečeť (Student's Seal), a very thick milk chocolate with peanuts, raisins and orange jelly... Awesome, just awesome!

And what sweets do you like?

According to this TV.com article Heroes was declared a family friendly TV show by The Family Friendly Programming Forum (FFPF). Uh, are they talking about the same show that I'm watching? The show where a man eats other people's brains and a high school chick cuts of her toes just to see what will happen? *shakes head*

And I constantly receive spam from various @toostupidtobepresident.com addresses. Are they trying to tell me something? O.o

I finished reading "La Esperanca 5" and started "Lets Get Criminal" by Lev Raphael, a gay mystery novel that puts a smile on your face the moment you finish the first paragraph. Hehe. Which reminds me to hug sharona1x2 again. You are made of gold, luv! ;)

Okay, I had another Supernatural dream last night. In it, Sam and Dean had to go and investigate something in a small clinic that specialized in helping rape victims. They decided... well, Dean decided that Sam would pose as a rape victim, saying that it would "pan out" somehow. Sam told him to go ahead that he would meet him at the clinic. When Dean arrived there, the nurse went all "Oh, you're finally here" and she led him to a small cubicle where Sam was huddled all bloody and beaten. Dean dropped to his knees in front of him, reached out to him and whispered: "Oh my God, Sam, what did you do?" Then there was this big leap, like there usually is in dreams, and in the next scene, Dean was sitting on a couch, Sam way lying next to him with his head propped up on Dean's tigh, asleep and covered with a blanket. On Dean's other side, there was Ben, snuggled against him and asleep too and Dean was thinking how much he loved them both...

And then I woke up. Sheesh! X(

Some people just don't listen. In the new EZTV forum, the owners asked the members not to post thank-you messages because they steal bandwidth. And what do the dumb-asses do? Bingo, "Thank you from France" and "First!" all over the place *rolls eyes*

As you may have noticed, I deleted my previous entry. I decided to make a big fat line under the whole thing and not let anybody spoil my weekend. Should I receive any non-fic related responses to my post in the comm, I will ask the maintainers themselves to deal with it and clearly state what is and what is not allowed.

I thank all my friends who responded to said entry for their kind words. I want to smooch you all :D

But lets turn the page. I have a question about plagiarism for you, my dear friends...

We all know and feel that plagiarism is bad. But when the culprit is caught and apologizes... Would you keep reading their fics? Or would the bad taste of plagiarism remain and turn you off completely so that you would never read any of their stories again?
