Non-threatening boys (and the men who would totally kick their asses)

[trinityofone]

*siriaeve once again wins at EVERYTHING. She made me JF icons from caps of First Monday (ahh, coreopsis, my evil plan worked!), possibly for use in AU Professor Sheppard fantasies. I'm almost willing to forgive her her recent habit of calling JF "The Flan." *g*

Especially because of this:

Trin: I can't stop listening to Dido, SAVE ME PLEASE!

Siria: WHAT WHY TRIN NO STEP AWAY FROM THE BAD RODNEY WOULD NOT APPROVE.

Trin: It's just this one song! The lyrics are secretly evil! *whimpers*

Siria: Oh, you say that now. But this is probably just a gateway song. Soon, you'll have the Easy Listening station on your radio, and you'll be finding Carson the hottest man on Atlantis (because he's just so asexual! My mam'd love him!) and then missy, then we'd have to have words.

Trin: Now I want someone to rise to the near-impossible task of maniping a picture of Lisa Simpson reading Non-Threatening Boys Monthly or whatever that magazine was called with Carson's head on the cover. *vbeg*

Siria: *snerks* If I had the Photoshop skills and the Simpsons screencaps, I'd totally do it. Because you know that Carson would be the poster boy, and you could join the Carson Beckett fan-club and get a little packet of stickers and a badge and a yearly newsletter in return. The newsletter would be full of things like 'nice things you can do for your mammy' and 'yum recipes for scones' and '101 ways to screw up ethically when a doctor.'

Flist! Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find that cap! The world needs that image, man. It does, it does.

Disclaimer (once more quoting Siria): *pets Carson* It's okay, we like you really.

Other random point of brilliance: _inbetween_ has discovered that Callum Keith Rennie should have played John Constantine. And not Keanu Reeves. May I emphasize? AND NOT KEANU REEVES. Thank you.

Finally, a poll:

[Poll #718144]

Comments

HE IS A DOCTOR. HE DESERVES RESPECT.

*GASP*

I only mock because I love. And because I am laughing my ass off.

[dar-jeeling.livejournal.com]

Where are the ticky boxes, omg?

The Flan. *snickers madly*

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

No, you must choose! AND CHOOSE WISELY!

[siria]

omf.

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. I was filled with love. I HAD TO SHARE WITH THE WORLD.

[siria]

You crazy. I am laughing so hard I'm wheezing, and this is a bad thing when one is IN THE LIBRARY AND MUST BE QUIET.

Maybe I should just give the studying thing a rest and go in search of TEA. Because the Flan has ruined me for study tonight. RUINED.

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

You can come over here if you want. I have to edit though. YOU MUST MAKE ME EDIT!

[siria]

Mmkay. If I must. Must get food first, though, because hi, I've not eaten since 1230. Hurrah for hypoglaecemia. *treks off*

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

YOU MUST FEED YOURSELF, SEYMOUR!

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

So...'Bang and the Clatter,' then?

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

If it makes you feel better, I currently only have 2,417 words of the BatC sequel, versus 3,729 of the HV one. Though they're both sort of kicking my ass. *sad*

[isiscolo.livejournal.com]

Mmm, flan.

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

It means something completely different here in the British Isles! Siria and I had a cultural "bwah?" moment the other day (like the time she kept asking me to get a cup out of the press) and we were much agog.

[wychwood]

What do you think it means? Just out of curiosity...

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

Flan? In America, it's a custard thing, like crème caramel.

[wychwood]

Wow, you people are really strange ;)

Sounds kind of nice, though. And that's a difference I hadn't come across before, so thank you!

*adds to mental American/English dictionary*

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

Your version sounds way nicer to me, actually. In my mind, flan shall forever have the connotation of "that dessert which someone will invariably try to make you eat after you've already had way too much Mexican food."

[wychwood]

Awesomeness. No one likes our names, though! :(

Non-threatening Boys Monthly sounds like such a great publication :) I love Lisa.

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

Our names kind of suck. I like hackthis's suggestions, though!

Lisa is awesome, but I like threatening boys! I should subscribe to Utter Bastards Who Are Fun to Fantasize About But Whom You Shouldn't Actually Date Weekly.

[siria]

The first cover star being John?

(What? He's hot, but he's too fucked up to date. Plus, Rodney has ruined me for other men. Yis.)

[desdema.livejournal.com]

I found a couple of caps of the magazine cover here (http://www.duffzone.co.uk/framegrab_script.php?img=9f12/02042004204910.jpg) and here (http://www.duffzone.co.uk/framegrab_script.php?img=7f14/08292004104924.jpg). Unfortunately they're small and the quality sucks, so they won't be much good for manipping with. The episodes these two came from are Brother From Another Planet and Another Simpsons Clip Show (which probably means this is from yet another ep, but all I have to go on is what Google offered up) in case anyone out there has the DVDs and wants to grab some caps for you.

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

Oh, you are awesome! Thank you! You have aided us greatly in our quest!

[aurora]

The Flan. *dies* This is all because of playing Final Fantasy X for such a long time, but everytime I see that, my mind flashes to one of the monsters there, called The Flan. Looking like this:



Also, please don't taunt with all that fic, kthx. =)) Hardest choice I had to make today.

[trobadora]

OMG, I think you've scarred me for life now.

[aurora]

Heh. There came in different colours and sizes, but this one was the most extravagant. :))

Sorry for the trauma.

[trobadora]

*wails* I can't get this out of my head! Poor Joe.

[aurora]

That monster was actually pretty cute.

In a omg-it's-gonna-kill-me-with-its-evil-powers-run! way. :|:|

[trobadora]

Huh. Not entirely unlike Shep after all.

*runs away*

[hackthis.livejournal.com]

I am procrastinating, so naturally I put some suggestions in the text box, even though I didn't say I did.

Superstarverse...the one with the Leather Pants verse... Hotassverse! What? I am being *so* helpful here. Name it after a U2 song... Flyverse (heh)... Lemonverse...Numbverse... Achtung Baby! You could call it Where The Streets Have No Name. Yis.

[trinityofone.livejournal.com]

My own funny is broken right now, but I just want to say how much I loved all your suggestions, both in the box and here. And I think you might be onto something with the U2 stuff. John is SO The Fly.

You could call it Where The Streets Have No Name. Yis.

Where the 'Verse Has No Name, maybe? *g*

[inthekeyofd.livejournal.com]

Professor Sheppard AU, because well..we can't get enough of that bowtie!!!

[pentapus.livejournal.com]

*envies icon*

Oh man, the second poll has me in a fit of indecision. I mean, I was all set with the obvious answer (Human Vacillation sequel) but then I was all, "Oooh. Bang and the Clatter!" Or, or, Professor Sheppard... Decisions, decisions. Ok, ok, Bang and the Clatter.

[etben.livejournal.com]

I cannot vote for both HV and the prof Sheppard AU, and this seems to me to be one of the great tragedies of our time.

[neery.livejournal.com]

YES EXACTLY.

[trobadora]

Gah. I want Human Vaccillation. But it's waited this long, it can wait a little longer, right? Right? Because I want Professor Sheppard even more. *g*

[neery.livejournal.com]

There is something wrong with your poll. I cannot click more than one fic! *whimpers with the agony of indecision*

Callum would have been so much lovelier as Constantine. I only ever saw one pic of the comic Constantine, but it is very obvious, yes.

[delurker.livejournal.com]

I have no idea what you should call your Four Quaters verse, except that perhaps 'Jumperverse' is not the best title, since in Australia, 'Jumper' = sweater, and I'm getting a mental image of SGA in woolly jumpers, kind of like the Wiggles. (Hee!)
