AHAHAHA, YOU GUYS. Okay so remember last year, the HIMYM cast did that "Best of 2008" photoshoot where they dressed up as other characters/people?

This year, EW did it with Big Bang Theory. And they dressed up Jim and Kaley as Edward and Bella. With Johnny in a giant furry werewolf suit to be Jacob. (Fandom reaction to this has been amazing: "OMG THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER I still hate Twilight goddammit BUT THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER.")

Also Kunal is dressed up as Kanye West and he looks AMAZING. DAMN.

Scans are here, for now. (That links to an S/P comm, so skip the comments if that ain't your thing.)

Oh that reminds me! We were watching "The Gorilla Experiment" episode (where Sheldon teaches Penny physics) and they referenced Koko the gorilla, and Rogue giggled, and I was like "What?" and he was like "Cuoco the gorilla," and he giggled again. And he calls *me* weird.

Whew, I think I finally have a handle on all the pictures that everyone took during D*C. (Picasa, I both love and hate you.) So here's a roundup of the 8 costumes that I wore during Dragon*Con 2009:



( Let's go dance Thriller, everybody! Maleficent, Sgt Pepper, Rebel cheerleader, Holyhead Harpies, The Guild, Yvaine, Robin Sparkles, and Castle, all under the cut )

WHEE Emmy noms are out! A lot of the same stuff as always, but some new things that I am EEEE! about:

( Choreography, Comedy Series, Comedy Actor, Reality Host, etc: )

Eeeee! My iPod is here, *finally*!!! It was actually here on Friday, but through a series of annoying mishaps, it wasn't delivered till today. But now I has it! XD

I have christened her Cameron, because I name my iPods after robot ladies. (My old (STOLEN! GRR!) one was Lizzie, aka Repli-Weir.) She is an 8GB 3rd gen Nano, and she is tiny and pretty and blue. :D :D :D

And we caught up on HIMYM and I just about died of laughter at the tag for "Little Minnesota." Let's go to the mall, everybody! Now we just have to get through the SCC and Pushing Daisies on the TiVo and we will be CAUGHT UP! Woo!

Yeah, I know, it's almost the end of September. I'm finishing my Comic-Con report anyway, goshdarnit!

( Friday: Stargates, Dr. Horrible (NPH *and* Nathan Fillion!), and AVATAR!!! With bonus Kiefer Sutherland )

I HAS A SPARKLES:



( 'nother picture and video! )

I think I'm gonna wear this around during the day tomorrow. It was waaaaaaaaaaay too much fun being Robin!!! :-D

PS, you should all read Rogue's entry about delivering a Bad Horse letter to Alan Tudyk today, because it is AWESOME.

Man, I hope the rest of the parts for this costume are waiting when I get home tomorrow night.

Let's go to the mall, everybody!

things that are annoying me: I can get the Sandcastles in the Sand video from iTunes, but not the Let's Go to the Mall video. Anyone who can tell me where I can find an ipod-compatible video of LGTTM gets a cookie. Several cookies.

It never fails-- I go through my day thinking "I should post this to lj, I should post that to lj" and then I get home and can't remember what the hell I was going to post.

So have some fic recs:

Hero for a New Age, by smittywing
SGA; Ronon and Rodney mostly, with some team stuff
"Superman's the last of his kind, too," Ronon said quickly. “I'm going to try to get McKay to rig me up some heat vision so I can melt steel like Superman."
Delightful.

The Making of an Emperor, on the TFN boards
Star Wars: Legacy of the Force and Star Wars: Legacy (seriously, they've got to come up with better names for these things)
OMG YOU GUYS. It's a Jaina-and-Jag-restart-the-Empire fic that doesn't make me want to claw my eyes out! I've been wanting one of those since I first read Legacy. It's not high art, or anything, but compared to the general level of SW fic it's very passable. (Why does most EU fic suck so badly? Why?)

Bromanian Rhapsody, by dollsome
How I Met Your Mother, Barney/Robin
“You know what?” he continues pensively. “We need our own country. King and queen of Bromania.”
I love Barney/Robin like I love cake. And I *love* cake. Why isn't there more fic??
