HIMYM has been rather disappointing lately.

Also, I'd decided to drop Supernatural. It just hasn't been holding my interest lately and I realized that I have about five other shows I'd rather spend my time watching.

Okay, so in my psych class my teacher was talking about how you can tell how important ideas are in a culture by how many different words that culture has for the same thing. Like, for example, how many different ways you can say attractive. What was really interesting is that when the class was throwing out synonyms for 'attractive' the women would pick more neutral words while the men would pick sexually charged ones. For example:

Women: beautiful, pretty, cute.
Men: sexy, hot, breathtaking.

Which was interesting. Mainly I was thinking of all the words we have for 'stupid' and how Japanese only has one.

Also, this weeks [livejournal.com profile] fannish5 :

List the five most surprising moments in any canon.


(I picked good surprising instead of bad surprising).

Beware, spoilers!

1.) Princess Tutu. Read more... )

2.) Avatar. Read more... )

3.) Firefly. Read more... )

4.) Naruto. SAI. I was spoiled for basically everything that happened in Naruto, except for Sai. My reaction, when I got to this hot, competent, badass shinobi with believable angst who is willing to IMPROVE HIMSELF who was saying everything we think about Sasuke totally unapologetically, has the best abs ever (seriously, can I lick his hipbones? Please?) and that delightfully massive crush on Sakura was this: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN FOR THE LAST 282 CHAPTERS AND WHY DIDN'T I KNOW ABOUT YOU BEFORE?

5.) Soul Eater. Read more... )

Woke up with a sore throat.

I am unhappy about that.

Still, it's not too bad. Just a scratchy throat and I haven't been sick since the summer, if then, so... I guess it's okay. I REALLY hope that it goes away quick though.

[livejournal.com profile] penknife  has a great post on what curtain fic is over at her lj and in my weakened and febrile state, I wants some. *puppy dog eyes*

So does anybody have good domestic fic for any of the pairings that I like?
