Things I learned from swapping friends lists with shirasade for a day:


- smaller lists are so much easier to read.

- shirasade's layout is lovely.

- gosh, an awful lot of people like Dominic Monaghan. I need to watch Lost.

- there's a troyslash community (which I have now joined). I was reading a collection of Boris Johnson's articles the other day, and one was about the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal; Boris describes Tony Blair supporting his bestest friend Bill "like a latter-day Achilles and Patroclus". I giggled a lot.

- my favourite quote: I wanna make out in a lego, dammit.

- there's LoTR fic (character fic, not RPS) that isn't written in the style of the books. You have no idea how happy this makes a philistine like me who prefers the movies. I especially loved the_danamark's stuff.

- ooh, a wolverinerogue comm.

- tpm_flashback. I haven't seen a Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan story in years. That takes me back. :nostalgia:

- I got very confused over the popslash comms because I was thinking "okay, JC and Chris are members of N*Sync, right? ...or is it the Backstreet Boys? Am I absolutely sure they're not the same band?"

Even if I think liking NKOTB is creepy and weird.
*laughs*
See, but you're a lot younger than me. There's so much nostalgia mixed up in it. It's not really the music at all.

*nod* See, I'm the same way about the Spice Girls. Because they were the band that I listened to when I was like 9, and took great pride in knowing all their lyrics.

The fact that I can still recite most of their songs verbatim is just an amusing side effect of my OCD, I assure you.
