love memes are BEST

The most amazing thing to wake up to: discovering that I have a thread on this incredibly fabulous anon love meme. It is difficult to tell, because on the outside I am made of things like hilarious morning bedhead, but on the inside, there is nothing but joyous sparkly hearts. Possibly radioactive ones.

(I loved all the comments -- seriously, my face hurts from grinning -- but the one that made me laugh was when she's into something, she's into it so hard it sends out fragments of it back and forward in time to infect those around her. I really hope this is true, because otherwise no one will care that I am writing goddamn Lex Luthor fic now.)

I would ask you to link me to your threads, but there is the greatest of handy indexes. There goes my morning. :D

Oh man, I do not! I should get on that. (I fail to be excited about the Lois/Kara, though, even though HOLY SHIT IT ACTUALLY JUST PASSED THE BECHDEL TEST, I DIDN'T KNOW SMALLVILLE COULD DO THAT. But I don't care about Kara at all, and I have to try really hard to care about Lois. If Chloe had been in that scene, on the other hand ...)

It's cool, I'm pretty sure it didn't actually pass the Bechdel test because Lois is totally implicitly asking Kara about Clark! BULLET DODGED.

Lois cannot dodge bullets! Only Clark and Kara can do that, pay attention.

God, and I love a lot of the women on this stupid show, too! Like, not Kara, I don't really know Kara, but Lois has Excellent Moments, and Chloe is my FAVOURITE, and to my huge delight Martha is slowly turning into Laura Roslin, and even Lana ... well. No. Lana is so uncomfortably objectified that I find myself wishing they'd fridged her just to save her the pain of being used to further really godawful emotional arcs for the mans. The only time I have liked her in recent memory was when she nearly murdered Lionel with great casualness while he was in hospital, because at least in that scene she had some goddamn agency.

Maybe I just need to take a few deep breaths and watch Babylon 5 again to calm down and watch awesome ladies.
