they both the look of silent patient waiting down pat

[schmerica]

So I showed fox1013 the latest (ridiculously adorable) picture of Pete Wentz and Hemmy.

Which led to this:

fox1013: that must be the longest-suffering dog in all of fandom
fox1013: right now, Scully's dog is sitting there thinking "I'm just glad that wasn't me."
fox1013: ...Scully's dog got eaten by a sea monster.

pearl_o: I was about to be like I don't know x-files, but I bet that was clever and funny!

fox1013: <3

pearl_o: I think Hemingway might be the longest suffering ANYTHING in any fandom, really.

fox1013: heeeeeeee
fox1013: --more than Dief?

pearl_o: Yes.

fox1013: Wait. More than Hope?

pearl_o: Wow.
pearl_o: That's a tough one.
pearl_o: I SMELL AN LJ POLL.

OKAY YOU GUYS I NEED YOUR OPINION ON THIS TOTALLY IMPORTANT AND SERIOUS TOPIC.

Bunny Marie Way!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Bunny DOES put up with a lot, but I'm not sure she doesn't actually really get into it, you know?

[claudia79ad.livejournal.com]

I think you may be right. It just seems so cruel, I can't imagine any cat I know putting up with hoodies and tricks.

I have to force my cat to wear a collar (which is like, the law and junk).

[shoemaster.livejournal.com]

Hemmy might beat Hope in a few years, but right now she's got more hours logged than he does.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Although at least Curtis doesn't dress her up in costumes? Um. I hope.

[somewhatdeluded.livejournal.com]

I'm totally sure Pete really loves Hemmy, and Hemmy knows it.

Also, dogs are really very good at forgiveness. Why, just this afternoon I was tormenting my dog with Reddi-Whip,** and now she's lying on my feet and licking me and wagging. People? I think individual instances of suffering last longer for people.

** I put a little bit on the top of her nose, right where her tongue can't reach, just to watch her try and stick her tongue *up* her nose to get at it. And no, this isn't a frequent occurrance, and yes, I did get it off for her in the end, but still, it's a mean game and I know it, but it's also *hilarious*.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Awww, I know he does too! Of course, I also think Pete loves Patrick, but I would not want to be in Patrick's shoes.

Also, AWWW PUPPY.

[soundslikej.livejournal.com]

right now, Scully's dog is sitting there thinking "I'm just glad that wasn't me."

Oh man. You know you're a big huge geek when you giggle at that without having to read the explanation. \o/

Also, yeah, Hope definitely wins. Or, you know. Loses, as the case may be.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*giggles* I'm geeky, just not in that particular way, I guess!

[giddygeek.livejournal.com]

*seconds Bunny Way*

Wins just for being a cat in clothes, man. I think about putting MY cats in clothes, but I like my limbs in their current number and relationship to each other. o.O

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I think you make a strong point! I'm still not sure, though, just because she never seems to MIND in the pictures.

[gobsmackit.livejournal.com]

I was going to put up Jon Walker, but same as Bunny, he probably enjoys most of it.




[Gerard on The Couch with Newbie and Curtis - OR DURING PON FARR! - how easily can I picture it? SO. EASILY.]

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

JON WALKER IS TOTALLY THE BUNNY WAY TO PANIC!'S MIKEY AND ALICIA OMIGOD.

Curtis: possibly the only person in all of fandom with worse hygiene than pre-band Way brothers?

[carla-scribbles.livejournal.com]

Hope for the absolute win, seriously. (Other runners-up: Lee Adama and CHIEF! from BSG, Johnny Burns from Deadwood. And nearly every woman on Mad Men.)

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Really, Lee Adama? From what I watched on BSG, he seemed like one of the people making other people have to be patient, too.

[carla-scribbles.livejournal.com]

Well, he certainly thinks he is. (But actually I'm wrong. The longest-suffering person on BSG is Felix Gaeta. Or, well, very possibly Gina, but I'm not sure it counts if you go kamikaze afterwards.)

[stele3.insanejournal.com (from livejournal.com)]

BUNNY WAY.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

See, Bunny Way strikes me as just as insane as Mikey and Alicia! Nobody in that relationship is *really* suffering, because they're all equally crazy. Hemmy, like Patrick, is a sane person who must deal with Pete.

[kalpurna.livejournal.com]

Gerard/Curtis/Febreeze OTP!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Theirloveissounhygienicandsociallyretarded!

[sloganeer.livejournal.com]

I am not sufficiently informed to make a decision, but I voted anyway.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I think quite a lot of people who know Twitch City but not bandslash did, actually!

[jukeboxromeo.livejournal.com]

Bunny gets my vote.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*grins* She seems to be the write-in candidate!

[ubixtiz.livejournal.com]

Unless Rommel is eligible. I'm not sure if he really counts as fannish. Poor thing, though. He has a nervous condition!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I do not know where he's from!

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

...Darling, you're bringing shame on the family.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I tried google but it just gave me Nazis!

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

You are not even looking at icons, are you?

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I am guessing it is related to Meg Cabot!

[ubixtiz.livejournal.com]

Oh, sorry, I should have specified. This is what I get for commenting at 3am! fox1013 has probably told you already, but Rommel is Queen Clarisse's purse dog from The Princess Diaries. He licks off his own fur and is on his own very special barrage of anti-anxiety meds. His life: so hard.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Thanks! And no, Fox didn't tell me. I think she was punishing me for not getting the reference.

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

She was.

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

I ♥ you for this.

HE HAS TO WEAR A CONE AROUND HIS NECK.

[ubixtiz.livejournal.com]

His life is hard, okay?

[hobbledehoy.livejournal.com]

bunny is my new favorite... but i offer you tmbg's tourdog lola:

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Ahahahaha. POOR PUPPY.

[clumsygyrl.livejournal.com]

...patrick?

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

At least Patrick has some methods of escape, though, right? Hemmy does not have Garageband to hide with.

[clumsygyrl.livejournal.com]

too true =)

[neery.livejournal.com]

Bob! I love Frank madly, but I would probably beat him to death if I was Bob.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Man, and the thing with Bob is, just Frank would be enough, but he has the whole crazy band to deal with.
