Just a quick post. The new me lives here: asytia 

Read the userinfo on that account for random blather, etc.

Byeeee...

Stolen from akamine_chan 

For the first five people that reply to this, or email me (slightly_obsessive@hotmail.co.uk) with their mail address, I will send them something random and weird that I think they might like. From me, it might be a drawing (if you send me a photo, I can do a cartoon of you). It might also be a collection of really strange things I found in random little shops. Or a book, maybe. I don't know, and neither do you :D that's the genius of this.

As with the stolen meme, I promise to get it to you withing 365 days or less, but if it's been more than two months, you may have to remind me :D memory is not a strong point of mine.

Hmmm... It may help if I had more that five friends. I need to be more popular for this to work, methinks. Oh well, I'll try it anyway.

Also, unless you live on Mars, chances are I will post to you. If it's somewhere really obscure, then tell me. Also, if English isn't your first language, I would be more than happy to attempt to find something in that language. I may, for German and French, attempt to write that note in that language. But only if you promise not to laugh.

(Edited to remove wandering comma)

Reaction post. Yay. I meant to do one for last ep as well, so it might get posted after this. Or hey, I could wait till the end of the season and go from 13 to 1 backwards :D

Done as I think it, so disorganised and rambling *g*

( Spoilers, obviously. )

Ok, so, scriggle posted this picspam here, not too long ago. Unfortunately, they had BIG watermarks on. In my stupidity, I looked at them and thought, "those can't be too hard to get off. Look, it's just brighter and less saturated.". Just over three hours later, I have removed three letters. But, The first letter took me over two hours to figure out the best way. The next two were much faster.

So, I have a question. They're not perfect quality, you can kind of see where the watermark was. Will anybody actually use them or am I just exhausting myself?
( cut for pics )

HOW CAN I BE A BAD STUDENT ALREADY?!?

( Feel free to ignore. I'm venting. )

I'm really, really bored right now. Not in that general, I have no life bored way, but in the 'my god I'm going INSANE' way of being bored.

So yeah, filling out random thingy. Gakked from uh... AuK, I think.

1) Copy this list into your blog or journal, including these instructions.
2) Bold all the items you’ve eaten.
3) Cross out any items that you would never consider eating.
4) Optional extra: Post a comment at www.verygoodtaste.co.uk linking to your results.

( Here. Yes, unimaginitice link, I know. )

I'm bored shitless, as you can probably tell by the frequent, and useless, posts recently.

I'm making this random post to say: I love the wardrobe department for Tin Man. Whoever's idea it was to put Callum in leather for the whole thing deserves some kind of reward. Callum. Leather. Guh.

Also, vaguely on the subject of leather, I realised the other day I shouldn't play the word association game when drunk. "Buckles" in my head apparently equals "Leather." Not shoes or something seinsible. Leather. Unfortunately I was playing with my mum. I might as well have skipped the leather and just said bondage. I hate my brain.

Except more post like this over the next few days: I have no life.

Actually, I think I said that before.

Damn, I really thought I was getting somewhere as well...

See, my massive obsession with CKR is becoming quite irritating. I can't watch anything, even where he's an evil, mass murdering psycho, without loving him. Which, for those of you on my flist who don't know who he is, is sadly all too often.

Then I watched Suspicious River, and I actually managed to dislike him. He really creeped me out. And it was a good thing, because he was playing a really, really evil guy.

( I'll cut here since there may be spoilers for BSG. Only season 1, but still... )

Woohoo! My first ever posted batch of icons :D

Teasers:







( 20 Icons under here... )

Ok, so this has probably been asked hundreds of times before, but I'm trying to make HCL icons and wallpapers and things, and I can't find any screencaps. Seeing as how my copy of HCL is on my other computer, the dead one, I was wondering if there are any good screencap sites out there?

Thanks in advance for the help :D

Suspicious River, home of the Stargate rejects...

Ok, it's not. See, I watched the film (despite several warnings) because ithad Molly Parker and Callum Keith Rennie, two of my four celebrety crushes. And it's not a crush as such. More an obsession. But yeah, despite people telling me it was kinda dark and depression, I watched it, becuase hey, CKR. Gotta be done.

And, as I was watching (and having my heart torn out), I noticed something. Hey, that guy's Michael Shanks! Oooh... (He's an ex-obsession) THEN I noticed golf-shirt guy, who is Don S. Davis. Ok, so General Hammond sleepa with hookers in his hotel rooms. Understandable. No, no it's not.

So yeah. Stargate rejects. Also, in more Stargate news, Michael Shanks is gonna be in Atlantis this season! Yay! Only for two episodes though... damn him.

WOOOOO!
FINALLY have the Hard Core Logo soundtrack :D EEEEEEE!
Yes, this is me, hyped up squealy fangirl, over punk rock. Doesn't quite fit, does it? Although, when I saw the Headstones, I did mostly squeal. And scream. And Hugh Dillon spat on me. And I was kind of going, oh, fuck! Eww! I just got spat on. And the other part was going, "Hugh. Dillon. Just . Spat. On. Me. Ok. Freak-out time now. EEEEEE!. I can't believe I've never told that story before. Fuck, how long ago was that? Fuck knows.

Anyway, yeah. HCL Soundtrack!!! I'm kinda trying to dance without moving right now, since it's like half twelve and everyones asleep and my computer chair creaks and cracks if I so much as swivel to one side to roll a cigarette. In fact, in creaks if I move my leg. But yeah. Motionless dancing. Always an exciting sight. Actually, seeing me dance motionlessly is probably preferable to seeing me actually dance.

Something's gonna (drum drum) die tonight!

WOOOO.

Again, I've been watching CSI NY. New great line, from Flack again. "I've had guys in here blame their criminal behavior on wives. Bosses. Even the devil. But I gotta tell you, this is a new one. You're tellin me, you were driven to this by a shiny red light." And another one, just a bit of a line, "And for your information. I'm very good." He is talking about police work there, just so everyone's certain.

That's all. And yes, I do mostly use my LJ for those random thoughts that pop into my head when I want to say something, but don't feel I should inflict something that comes out of my brain on poor, unsuspecting bystanders. Or even suspecting ones. Feel sorry for my brother.

Well, the post that says it's from today is actually from yesterday, but for some reason it didn't post. Todays post is a random thing.

Carmen Argenziano. Actor. Born 2 days after me, but a lot of years before. He's in EVERYTHING. My brother had a friend round today, so I couldn't get my dad to drive me anywhere, so I mostly spent my day watching TV on my laptop. I have four things I watch frequently (and 3 more I watch infrequently.) They are: CSI, CSI NY, House and Stargate SG-1. Argenziano has been in all of them, and I've seen him in all of them today. Also, My dads girlfriend was watching Ally McBeal (don't ask) and he was in that. Also, I've seen him in JAG, Babylon 5, ER and 24. He's unconciusoly stalking me. Scary.

Ok, two things for today. I really should post more often, then let prospective girlfriends read my journal. They'll run a mile. In fact, I should let attempted boyfriends read this, then they won't even want to know me. Which is good. Because mostly I find when you say, "I would go out with you, but I'm gay" they just take it really badly, like you're just saying that. That wasn't one of my rants for today, so I cut it as short as possible.

Rant one for today is how I should stop watching CSI: NY, becuase I keep falling madly in love with Flack or Danny, and then have to remind myself I don't like guys in real life. (On TV it's different. Don't ask). My love of today is Flack, for his "Can I arrest him for swearing on his Grandmother?" line. Also the "You're under arrest." "What for?" "Evading parole. And I don't like you." line. And many, many others, which I won't make people suffer through. And to explain my weirdness at remembering those verbratim (from only one watch) I have an audiographic memory, which is like photographic, but for sound, not sight.

My other rant of today, which is actually s rant of last sunday is this. I moved back to the UK four years ago. Since then, I haven't seen anyone in a hockey jersey. Ever. At work, when I was outside on a fag break, a guy walks past me wearing a hockey jersey. I turned around to him and said this, "First guy I've seen in a hockey jersey in the whole damn country, and it's the fuckin Leafs!" The I grinned at him, becuase hey, it's hockey. Then he grinned at me, for reasons unknown. Possibly for my vehemence, possibly for the fact that I recognised a hockey jersey, or possibly because I was insane.

Ha! I have found somewhere to house my hockey rants, where I can get it all out of my system, and nobody else will be able to read them and laugh. Well, they will, but it's unlikely. That, and the only people who have friended me that I know in real life know absolutely NOTHING about hockey, and won't care anyway.

The fact that the Rejects are the only friends I have who watch hockey is because I live in the UK, where the only hockey league is Elite, which is all shit, and only has about 6 teams. And nobody's heard of it. My mum's boyfriend knows a little about hockey, but prefers football. I was watching it once, and he was watching it with me. Our conversation went a little like this:

Me: So, you support anyone in particular, or just watch it.
Stef: There was a team. A Canadian one. I liked them, cuz it's a Canadian game and everything... uh...
Me: Yeah. Well, the Habs are one of the Original Six, like before there was this NHL, so yeah. Just as longs as you don't support the Leafs. *mock growl*
Stef: They were uh... the maple somethings...
Me: Uh huh...
Stef: They weren't a big team, from a smallish place. Dunno.
Me: The maple LEAFS, stef. The Leafs. I don't believe it. The one fucking guy in the entire country, and you support the Leafs. Fucker. Also, they're from TORONTO, Stef. Not exactly a small place, y'know.

In my defense, I'm a die-hard Habs fan. I'm allowed to hate the Leafs. Also, the Flyers, as of this years playoffs. In his defense, he was very drunk.

As an explanation to the above Rejects, and to why I am friends with the Rejects, they aren't really rejected. It's just they're US military, posted at a J.A.M.C. base in the middle of nowhere, in south-west England. How much more rejected can you be?

Anyway, rants to come. Post-dated, from the beginning of the 07-08 season. I have rants for most games. Some are short. Others are long. Others are essays. And bear in mind I can play, coach and ref better than EVERYONE in the NHL when I'm writing my rants. Or so I would like to believe. The fact I've never played hockey competitively could put a small hole in that particular idea, but still. I CAN!!!

I always find that I can't pick a favourite food, since it all depends on your mood and your environment. In the summer, it's usually hot and humid, not the kind of weather in which you would want to eat a huge roast. In the winter, a green salad would hardly give you enough energy to keep warm, would it?
For that reason, as the weather gets colder, I find myself spending longer and longer in the kitchen, making up huge batches of homemade soup, and baking bread. There is something comforting about coming into the house after freezing outside to warm, hearty food.
In the summer, I would often complain about the amount of time I had to spend in the kitchen, boiling hot, whilst everyone else gets to sit around in the garden. In the winter, the kitchen is the warmest room in the house, making me more that willing to stay in there.
Overall, I am more willing to cook and eat large, hot meals in the winter than in warmer weather. The only problem with this is that, with it being colder and therefore making it a stupid idea to want to go running, eating more food tends to make me attempt (and fail) to go on diets periodically throughout the winter.

I'm currently working on it. It may take a while, as it requires lots of alcohol. I did actually try writing while I was drunk, but typing with a cigarette in one hand when you're too drunk to sit up straight does not make for good typing. Or closing tags on HTML codes.
I should really be working on the huge amount of homework and coursework I have, but, you know. MSTing is more fun.

OK, my second MST. This fic is truly awful. Not quite as bad as the sequel, but be prepared for cringes so bad you fall off your chair. Fic has House/Chase slash, MST has House/Wilson, House/Chase and House/Chase/Wilson.
Both MST and fic feature lapdancing!Chase, and the MST version is considerably (I hope) easier on the stomach. By the way, by the end I kind of gave up on the grammar, because the content was nauseating enough as it was.( Click here... If you dare. Alcohol with help. )
