Christmas Special
Just saw the Doctor Who Christmas special.
Nonspoilerly reaction is- I think I enjoyed it more than I've like DW in a long, long time. Although.... *facepalms* at effects. The creature-things (face of badguy, body of I'm not sure what) were what I would have expected back in the days of the first or second Doctor.
In the musical "Annie" the not nice woman running the orphanage is Miss Hannigan, I assume the similariaty in name was planned?

Ianto being a diminutive of John makes "Yan" seem even stupider when it's used in fanfic. And I'm not even going to TOUCH Yanny or Yannyboy with a 10 foot pole.

"Yannyboy"? Somebody used THAT? *shakes head* People are SCARY.
(No mad smarts, just too much over-thinky.)

One, truly terrible author, uses all sorts of bizarre nicknames. Yannyboy is the only one I really remember. I learned very quickly to quit clicking the links that have anyhting to do with that specific username
