• For the record, I almost never f-lock anything. Exceptions: Pr0n; RPF (no, don't ask to be "added to the filter", there's only one and it's on ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif) bsgrpf as well); and, well, nothing else at the moment. I have a few totally private posts like my bad poetry and song lyrics and notes about various things. • The fingernail I slammed in an elevator door back in September has finally almost completely grown out. • Thank you for your support. • Some people should realize that claiming that they know something for a fact that they don't, in fact, know just makes them look really, really silly and makes me want to mock them more. • The same people need to realize that either they are guilty of gross intellectual dishonesty or they severely need to improve their reading comprehension skills when they tell people things like, "Oh, but I'm the strange obsessed one because I post pics of him [Jamie Bamber] and news of his appearances and gush over his hotness and share my loopy dreams," the implication being, of course, that someone actually said that she was strange and obsessed with Jamie Bamber rather than that someone could get that impression from her LJ. • And (I promise I'll stop soon), "It amazes me that people can make comments about a story they never even read." Dur. We read it, we ... just ... couldn't help ourselves. • And (OK, really, I'll stop now), just remember: ( On the Internet, no one knows you're a dog )Tags: bsg, wank

• I finally listened to the last part of the writer's meeting podcast. It's really interesting to me to hear the discussions that the writers have; the process of creation always intrigues me. (And yes, I am one of the three people in the world who read all 48,000 volumes of The History of Middle-Earth, and found it to be a fascinating and possibly unique exploration of the creation of a major work.) One of the things I particularly noticed in the podcast was how late into the process they were still thinking of putting Kara in command of the Pegasus rather than Lee. Someone needs to fic that... • Dirk Benedict is stupider than I ever thought. From an interview located here*:
Jonja.net: I saw you in the Starbucks(Coffee Shop) with Katee Sackoff (The Lowdown)and she couldn’t keep up with you, she didn’t know what to do with you.
Dirk:She just sat there and giggled. She was cute, she was nice. I thought oh my gosh. No, now, all those fans say “Oh, she is better than he ever was” but there is no comparison, I was a 29 year old man that played that part and I was male, and I was really male!
Dude? It's called acting. Yes, Katee is cute and nice and giggly ("bubbly" is the word I would use, actually). That doesn't mean she's going to play Starbuck as cute and nice and giggly. Good God... * Thanks to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) greycoupon for pointing this out.Tags: bsg, random

Ah, fandom. After last night's spoilerific broadcast of Subject2Discussion, Ron Moore has gone on the SciFi boards and made a fairly reasonable plea for people to stop posting spoilers. Wank ensues. :-) And, to a certain extent, I think Ron's right. Consider what's already happening as a result of the very sketchy information that KoenigRules revealed last night: There's a lot of people all up in arms and screaming about how shitty the ideas are when the truth of the matter is we have absolutely no context within which to evaluate them. If people were like, "Hmmmm, I wonder how that's going to play out?" rather than, "if this garbage is true, I'm going to have to find something else to watch on Friday nights" (which is an exact quote from Someone), then I don't think it would be such a problem. But I've been giving this a lot of thought, and I'd rather that the spoilers dried up, much as I love being spoiled, than that we spend the next six months engaged in attacks on RDM and the writers because of someone's (mis)interpretation based on very sketchy information. That said... The problem ain't the spoilers. It's the wank. And that's caused by people with no brains reading spoilers. And one final note: I fear very much that the main victim of this whole brouhaha will be Shaun Daily and Subject2Discussion. I suspect that he will find it next to impossible to get any BSG guests in the future, and that's a damn shame. Tags: bsg, spoilers, wank

OK, so everyone knows I'm just slightly obsessed with Battlestar Galactica. I've got one of those weird collector brains, and when I get interested in something, I tend to start collecting things related to it. Guitar effects pedals. Books about the Titanic. Stuff related to BSG, naturally. And, naturally, that includes autographs. Now, a lot of people sell autographs on eBay, which means a lot of people buy them. Like most things on eBay, it's definitely caveat emptor, but ... who'd forge Katee Sackhoff's autograph, for example? ( A lot of people, surprisingly. )Tags: bsg
