notes from today's portland excursion:

[schmerica]

1) Livia delivers on her promises: SGA really is the show of Snarky Bitches. Awesome.
1a) Sheppard and McKay don't particularly strike me as totally gay for each other, but I can see the slash as believable.

2) Fantastic Four, while not by any means a good movie, is reasonably amusing and entertaining, certainly much more so than it appeared in the ads.

3) Livia has declared Duck in Wilby Wonderful the ultimate comfortador. She also apparently has a theory about the complentary attraction of comfortadors and woobies, but I didn't get all the details.

Sheppard and McKay don't particularly strike me as totally gay for each other, but I can see the slash as believable.

I kind of thought the same way the first time I watched it. The thing is, after the utter gayness of Ray and Fraser (not to mention Clark and Lex) everything else seems sort of understated, I think.

That being said, I came for the slash and stayed for the snark. Also, Sheppard is just empirically hot.

On point three, upon reflection, I think you are quite right.

You are also right on point one.

I have not seen FF, so I have no opinion on point 2.

After reading many, many stories, I have been brainwashed into thinking that Sheppard and McKay are mad crazy gay for each other. I am comfortable in this delusion. It brings me the happy. :D

Now I want someone to write a Duck/Xander story. Duck accidentally wanders into Sunnydale and Buffy saves him, and Xander comforts him. Or something.

*SNUG*

This cowriting thing is an AWESOME deal, dude, seriously, because the other person writes all the good stuff and you get to just be like YAAAAAY.

*giggles* I don't know if it's an understated thing, or just that different pairings hit different people differently. I mean, I would never have noticed House/Wilson without the "OMG GAYEST THING EVER TO GAY" on lj, either, and to a lot of people they're even more obvious than a lot of the pairings I see.

Yay, snark.

Dude, I love being right! Although, actually, it's possibly in both of those incidents it's Livia who is right, and I am just the reporter. But I am perfectly willing to claim credit, so it works out.

I heartily approve of bringing the happy in any way possible.

Wow, dude, I can't see that at all.
