Ad hoc, ad loc, and quid pro quo! So little time! So much to know!

Howdy all, just checking in with a couple of things so y'all know I'm not dead or anything.

1) Because it's been about a million years since my last ASkars post:

( Raptor Jesus bless all personal trainers... )

My face at that pic:



2) Glee and Supernatural reaction posts are in progress, but might still be a while because I'm doing about five gazillion other things at the same time. Apologies for the wait.

3) More Bat!fic is also coming very soon. Including things that bumped its overall rating into the R/NC-17 range. Stay tuned :D

I'll also probably compile a list of big bang recs at some point soon, once I get a chance to actually read them /o\

Oh my fucking God, I officially love the internet (of course, by the internet, I mean my flist). How could I not? It brings me little gems like this:


Gacked once again without shame from lauracoy chapmangrl because Youtube ganked the first one

When he first moved to pull off his shirt, I was like this


and then I almost passed out laughing (with bonus half-suffocating from stifling it to keep from waking up La Famille).

Also, I can't help but notice how...um...handsy...he is when he's drunk. Or, on the other hand, if he's sober in this and is this much of a dork on his own, that just makes me fucking adore him all the more.

Side note: I need a Starsgard fic of something like this in my life. I might be able to write it myself (Rock Band shenanigans y/y?), but I might just explode from glee if someone else writes something.



Cheers.

P.S. - This could just be him being European, but I can't help noticing the manpris...they might or might not make me wonder if he and Stark have been swapping clothes again...

1) Old business/catching up:
- Geeking out about American Idiot post (includes vids of their performances at the Tony Awards)
- Thoughts on Glee Season 1 and up to the middle of Season 4 of Supernatural
- Lyrics challenge (four songs left unsolved)

Now, new business!

2) Supernatural thoughts on Season 5 (because I was asked to post my thoughts on it once I got started)
( Episode 5x01, 'Sympathy for the Devil' )

( Episode 5x02, 'Good God, Y'all!' )

3) True Blood thoughts on Season 3 (because I feel like it)
( Episode 3x01, 'Bad Blood' )

4) A review of the remake of The Karate Kid

( Wax on, wax off... )

That's all for now, more ramblings on SPN to come (among many other things). Have some bathing!Eric for your time, internets

Dear lawn/yard crew,

Did you really, really have to get started at eight in the morning? I actually managed to get to bed early and stay asleep all the way through the night for once and you start up your astonishingly loud equipment RIGHT NEXT TO MY WINDOW at EIGHT IN THE BLOODY MORNING. And then proceeded to do your usual (loud) thing, which just guaranteed that I won't be able to go back to sleep.



Go away before my violent impulses get the better of me.

Hoping one of you runs over your own foot with a lawnmower,

P.S. - See the previous entry for more fics and less vitriolic hatred.

Um....okay. So I've been watching my next disc of OZ Season 1 and I just got to a very...surprising...scene.

( What in the actual FUCK? )

Just in case I didn't mention it before; I LOVE THIS SHOW. Such a fucking head trip.

Cheers.

Urgh. Internets, do you ever have moments where you sit back, re-examine your life, and think "My God, what am I smoking?" Yeah, those tend to happen to me during these particularly busy times in my college life. It could just be my brain berating me for making it suffer through the Biomechanics test I had today, though.

So, to spare us all from my bellyaching, I come bearing a particularly delectable piece of mancandy that's been popping up all over my flist lately:

( Cut for size and to spare those with heart conditions )

Man, it's been too long since I had an ASkars post.

Secondly, a meme I gacked from spirited_lizard

( Where do I keep finding these? )

In keeping with the theme of today's mancandy, sunny!ASkars thanks you for your time:

P.S. - My Shiver review post will go up after I finish covering a baseball game tomorrow night. I promise!

Alrighty then! Here, as promised, is my Kill Your Darlings review post (after southoffebruary planted this movie in my brain). But first, a meme that I gacked from lycoris:

( What color am I? (cut to spare flists from wonky formatting) )

Huh. For once, that's actually a pretty accurate description of me (usually, memes that attempt to describe me have at least one "LOL no" thing in them).

Anyway, on to the actual Kill Your Darlings stuff...

( Notes taken as I watched the movie... )

And then the actual review...



( The lovely miss Skarsgard invites you in... )


And finally, a humorous moment with Le Boyfriend:

Le Boyfriend (after I explain what I'm watching): Oh, so gaySkars, huh?
Me: *blinks* Come again?
Le Boyfriend: You said "Skarsdrag", I call it "gaySkars"
Me: ...you are seriously unhinged, ASkars is not gay.
Le Boyfriend: Even though you think he and that Stark guy are boyfriends.
Me: ...
Le Boyfriend: *"Well?" eyebrows*
Me: He'snotgayhe'sEuropeanokay? *mutters*

*sighs* That man is going to be the death of me one day.

This one went a lot faster because I had the Flags of Our Fathers post to serve as a template -- hopefully, these posts will streamline (and stay funny) as time goes on. According to my Netflix queue, Pretty Persuasion is next, followed by Brotherhood of the Wolf. Considering Pretty Persuasion a) is pretty weird in its own right and b) has Stark in ridiculously hot prep mode, hilarious flailing and fangirling is pretty much a guarantee.

Edit to add: The amazing chapmangrl gave me gifs of some of my favorite parts, so I'm so adding them to the post. Enjoy! :D
