Stupid brain

Yes, it is very important to spend two hours researching the difference between a geological survey and a geographic survey so I can use the right term when Jack dismisses the data presented to him via the report in a brief sentence. 

And no, I'm not wasting time on the minutia because it puts off figuring out the specifics behind the evil alien, or how Jack is going to solve things and what's going to happen next- that's just a bonus.

Anyone have a brain that is functioning?  Mine appears to be stuck on spin cycle.

I'd love to help, but I'm having a day, and my brain is currently on strike.

I will offer some Barrowman, however.

you can never go wrong inserting Barrowman into things

oh wait.. that sounded, I mean I didn't mean for it to come out like...

never mind *hides*

I have the urge to metaquote AND icon that.

I just fell out of my chair, by the way. Thankfully, the bed caught me.

*I feel dirty*

I honestly didn't mean for it to be interpreted in any way other than having Barrowman mentioned was always a good thing

I think the problem with conversations about Barrowman is that they a lot of what you might say could end up being taken the wrong way.

I think it's twice the threat with Jack.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-02-26 04:16 am (UTC)(link)
absolutely. And I love his character for that!

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-02-26 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
And I love JB for making the character.

I really can't fathom Jack working played by anyone else. I've never seen another actor with that smooth level of omnisexual innuendoness while being vulnerable and strong all at the same time. It wouldn't work without JB

Exactly. He is Jack, pretty much.

TW (or, Jack I should say) was my introduction to the world of fandom and fanfic. And, for the longest time, the only slash I could read, because, well- it's Jack, anything and everything was game. It made for an easy transition into the non-gen world of fic out there.

I decided to change my computer wallpaper. I feel a donut is needed somewhere on there.

*snerk* It's wonderful!

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-02-26 09:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee. Thank you.

i think that you are a brilliant person.

(here from metaquotes)

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-02-27 07:40 am (UTC)(link)
Hee. Thanks. The people in my class seemed to just think I was a crazy person when they saw my new wallpaper...

Apparently very little about the awesomeness of John Barrowman. My coworkers, at least, thought it was brilliant.

[identity profile] donutsweeper.livejournal.com 2008-02-27 07:29 pm (UTC)(link)
smart coworkers you have there.

I mentioned Doctor Who in passing the other day and my coworkers had NO idea what I was talking about *sigh*

After about 5 minutes of babbling several had remembered the oldschool version, none knew it had come back. Heathens

[identity profile] the-dark-side.livejournal.com 2008-02-27 07:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Heathens, indeed. I usually avoid talking to people like that...

[identity profile] annoyedwabbit.livejournal.com 2008-02-28 07:46 am (UTC)(link)
obviously, these people are not geeky enough. *nods*

Or, you know, I'm really the sane one.

I swear I almost typed that with a straight face.
