*LJ, I don't approve of this thing where clicking on the 'x comments' link bumps you all the way to the bottom of the page, as that's usually what I click on to try to read cut text. Also, why do you keep varnish-erroring my profile?
*Parents' computer is well and truly borked; it froze on me a couple times while they were out of town, and when Mom tried booting it up this evening it whitescreened and ran a bunch of 'DEFAULT blahblahblah.' My guess: hard drive.
*Meme time part one: 1. Give me a canon (or character from a canon)
2.And I will you FIVE things that, in my opinion, make that canon super special shiny and awesome. They may be characters, crowning moments of awesome/funny/heartwarming, particularly epic music or animation, or just things that make me out and out squee every time.
*Meme time part two: Four more icons courtesy of
misslucyjane (who also wanted info on two from the last batch).

those snow... mammals... can be vicious: One of a few I have from Help! because I adore the movie to bits (and because everyone needs an icon of Paul on the floor, though this is not that icon). This is Ringo picking a fight with some kind of snow animal; I said 'mammals' in the keyword because my best guess is it's a horse-ish.

plot bunny troubles: I made this as a shareable icon for Yuletide in '09, when Dr. Horrible was one of the bigger fandoms involved. It works both for that moment of 'what did I get myself into with this offer?' and for general 'plot bunnies, what the hell?'

private sign: I believe I found the photo on Oddly Specific. It amused me, so I made an icon, but it's hard to know what the right time to use it is.

geeks in love: Yet more Warehouse 13 - or, technically, Warehouse 13/Eureka, since Claudia's busy snogging Fargo there. Of my various OTP icons, this is the one that has the best shot at a happy ending (though even that's a long shot, considering).

3) Tom! I like Tom. I also still ship Daria/Tom quite a bit, even though I was iffy on the whole love-triangle thing and figured, given that, that they'd probably break up before the end of the series. But from an intellectual standpoint, they really understand each other.
4) Related to that, the show let the characters grow up and change over the course of the series. It wouldn't have worked as well if everyone had stayed in the same place they were in the first season.
5) The musical episode, corny as it is, makes me laugh every time.
