1) I think Lynne Stopkewich talking about how CKR said "Make me your meat puppet" is my favorite Callum Keith Rennie quote of all time.
2) I don't know what it is about "All the Queen's Horses", but I think it has magic powers. I'll be going about my normal life, and then that episode comes on, and suddenly, for the course of those 40 minutes, my mind is taken over by a flailing Fraser/Thatcher shipper.
liviapenn showed it to me for the first time; I flailed wildly the entire time. "Why I am flailing? I CAN'T STOP. Omigod, why are they so ENDEARING? It is like a good slash fic! Only on TV! And with a GIRL!" [Also, the whole "Things grow ... feelings." bits? I choose to believe those are erection jokes. Hee.]

speshope and I are going out in about a half hour for dinner and STICK IT. Yays!
edited to add: what the hell, let's make it four things. Some of you on my flist are partly there because of your awesome linguistics connections, but some others of you I just found out about recently. Are there more people out there I am missing? Fandom and linguistics are the two most brain-eating obsessions I have; I'd certainly like to read more journals of people with similar dorkiness.

30/4/06 04:45 (UTC)"I forced Callum to cram himself into an extremely tight pair of jeans for this movie," Lynne Stopkewich laughs. "I've wanted to work with him ever since I saw him in Mina's Double Happiness. I wanted to be the director to really push him, to be the one who was going to give him something he could really sink his teeth into and do something phenomenal. And I have to say I think his performance in Suspicious River is the finest I've ever seen from him. I drove him crazy, but he was incredibly generous. He just said to me, 'Make me your meat puppet.'"
