pensnestGleaned from Metafilter: the idea that you can turn anything into an insult by putting the word 'absolute' in front of it. You absolute post, for instance. I like it. Whereas putting 'completely' in front of it and adding '-ed' makes it seem you are exhausted or drunk. I'm completely posted. Uh huh.

Beast and I have now got to the end of Black Sails, and I find I am quite interested in catching up on any discussions which might have taken place. Not on Tumblr, though, because I cannot. Anyone recommend any DW or LJ comms? Happily,vae is going to send me some fic links. Hmmmmm, might actually have to make some icons for it! Yes, that sounds like a good plan. It will leaven the task of selecting chorus photos for our magnificently revamped website.

A phrase I would never have expected to read but did indeed read today: A few years ago, daffodils almost killed a vicar...

My cats are coiled together on the sofa into a single cushion of softness. Sadly, I know that if I approach them they will fission into two separate felines, neither of which wants to be stroked. I shall go to bed instead, after posing the following question:
For your fandom(s) of choice, which (one, preferably) of your own stories would you recommend to a reader who's unfamiliar with the fandom? As a good place to start. And, why that one? (I came upon this question in a post from yearsback, and thought I'd probably answer it differently now, though I'll have to think about it for a day or so before I do.)
