I Want A Lover Who Burns Like Fire On The Rushing Sea

Okay, I'm finally going to finish up this meme!

Ever felt like you should revoke your shipping credentials? Because you like the strangest ships and/or parts of your ship? Well TELL US MORE. Answer the questions with ships you love like burning.*

*I have comparatively few pairing that I could accurately say I ship like burning, so I qualify this as ships that I a.) really like and b.) would be interested in reading and/or writing fanfic about.

Fandom Tennis Match Meme:

Okay, here's how this is going to work. You comment with a fandom question. I answer it and then ask you a question that has some thematic relevance to the question you asked me.

Reason 2,375 Why My Mom Is EFFING AWESOME

I sent her the link to that wonder woman vid, and after informing me that she wanted to watch all the wonder woman things, this conversation ensued:

Red's mom: is this [source material] where people think Superman and Wonder Woman have a thing?
Me: There are a couple comics where they're together.
Red's mom [immediately]: What about Lois?
Me: I dunno, everyone kind of hates [that pairing (Wonder Woman/Superman)].
Red's mom: Why would they have Wonder Woman date Superman when Batman's there?
Me: Whoa, what did Wonder Woman do to deserve that?
Red's mom: ....and she can lasso him with the lasso of truth and make him realize that some things just need to die.

I wasn't going to go into how Batman is already dating someone who ties him up (don't even try to tell me Bruce doesn't have restraints in his bedside table, I don't believe it) and I was laughing too hard to go into the fact that Catwoman hasn't done anything to deserve Bruce either but trust me, those thoughts were thought.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine

So, the stealth darkhorse thing that I didn't expect to be enjoying is Brooklyn Nine-Nine, which I just find REALLY entertaining.

It's a solid comedy and I'm such a fan of police procedurals that I really feel like I kinda get the in-jokes. (Also, there is comedy gold waiting when the show decides to mock will they/won't they pairings with Santiago and the main dude whose name I can't remember.)

I like that pretty much every person is a source for comedy in different ways, and that the vast majority of the time it isn't mean spirited comedy.

I just finished watching the ME episode (I have watched the aired episodes totally out of order) and I dig how the comedy of the entire episode is basically what a dick the main character is. You won't believe it - the main character is a talented dick and everyone treats him like a talented dick! (And considering he and Santiago are neck-and-neck, he's clearly not a genius on a different level than everyone else.)

Also! This show totally passes the Bechdel test.

Also, I may be shipping Diaz/Boyle which I am fairly sure I am not okay with.
