Harshing My Squee

"Harshing my squee" is a phrase I've been using for a long long time. Lately, I have seen it all over the internet. I am highly amused.

*hugs her little catch phrase*

So go on and fill it out yourself. Let me know if you do, in case I miss it. If you can't tell, I love talking about writing :)

Fun with Polls!

OMG, I just read the latest SV spoilers and they are so very awesome. I think fandom just exploded, though.

Anyway...

Okay, flist. You are becoming varied and multilayered in the fannish department. When I first started on LJ 5 years ago, you were mostly SG-1 fans. Now, I think I have a bit of everything. And since I love to talk - I do despite my bouts of silence - I would like to know what you like. If we have overlap that I wasn't aware of or may have forgotten, then we'll have more to talk about :)

This is for TV/film only right now. I can tackle other interests another time. I can't list them all, so I'm basing it off some of my interests. Feel free to add anything else in the comments.

( I watch and/or am a fan (fanfic, discussion, art, etc.) of... )

( What shows do you like that you think I should watch? )

( Any show I can nudge you to watch? )

And I can't believe I'm doing this, but I think I am going to try to watch Dark Angel. Any Dark Angel fans on my flist to help me keep with it?

( Who wants to get me into Dark Angel? )

Okay, now off to exercise I go!
