Avengers!

Saw The Avengers last night. Loved it. Despite not having seen any of the prior movies featuring these characters and having no knowledge of the Marvel comics whatsoever, lol. It's very obviously a Joss film, though, which I think is why I liked it? Because the characters are all witty and clever and have actual character beats in between blowing up all the things.

Mark Ruffalo is the actual best, and if he'd been in the other Hulk movies, I might actually be tempted to watch them. Also, I may have just become a Tony/Bruce shipper. RDJ = hilarity. Not usually a Scarlet Johansson fan, but Natasha rocks and needs her own movie. Preferably with Jeremy Renner. (BUDPAEST!) And I can totally see now why people keep suggesting Chris Hemsworth as Finnick for the Hunger Games movies, even though I still think it'd be weird. Oh, and Imma need a gif of the Hulk punching Thor out of frame as soon as humanly possible.

Shawarma!

Comment to this post, and I will list seven things I want you to talk about. They might make sense or they might be totally random. Then post that list, with your commentary, to your journal. Other people can get lists from you, and the meme merrily perpetuates itself.

My questions, from [personal profile] ever_neutral, under the cut.

Last Galentine's Day post! Before I get into it, I want to say thank you to [personal profile] angearia for the Galentine's Day v-gift. Also, [personal profile] chaila wrote me FNL meta! Go read!

This picspam is for [profile] maharet83, who asked for Anya or Oz. In the spirit of celebrating the ladies, I went with my favorite Anya moments.

Lotsa icons under the cut! Giftees, please let me know if you don't want your icons shared. Other folks, unless specified otherwise, they're all up for grabs.

This is entirely [personal profile] ever_neutral's fault. All quotes taken from her post and those who left hilarious comments.

Sorry, guys. I have a ton of stuff tabbed and comments to respond to (and memes! I must give you all your icon memes), but I've been busy in work this week and I have exams this weekend, so. More icons! I'm not particularly happy with this batch, but... meh.

It occurs to me that I never posted my thoughts on Whedonistas, which I figure might be relevant to some of your interests?

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, here's the scoop: my BFF [personal profile] gabrielleabelle got published in a book about Whedony things, along with a few other fandom peeps - whom you'll be able to identify because they cite their posting handles or their work, unlike Gabs, who retains her sekrit identity - and some actual professional people, who are far less interesting to me because we don't hang out on LJ together.

It appears I have found ANOTHER thing to gobble up all my free time (and then some). I've started making icons from my Awesome Ladies picspams. I'm still at the beginner level, so concrit is welcome! Also, I'll probably work my way through the rest of the picspams eventually, but if there are any in particular you'd like iconned, let me know.

AKA: the point at which I completely gave up on the meme and just started posting random awesomeness.

Speaking of which, I am pondering possibly doing a round-up of my favorite "We Love the Women Fandom Hates" posts from this week. I missed, like, 90% of the thing and didn't get a chance to participate myself, but lots of people have posted awesome things. (Shout-out to [personal profile] ever_neutral for being the stanniest Elena stan there is!)

Well, now that the earthquake excitement has passed (yes, I'm fine, building is fine, everyone's fine except the whiny dog down the hall), I have more awesome ladies for you.

I seem to have settled into a once-a-week pattern for this meme, so hopefully it won't take me the rest of my life to finish it.

Oh, this meme. LONGEST 30 DAYS OF MY LIFE, YO. Haha, seriously, I started it over 4 months ago. New goal: Finish before the end of the year.

With our resident Poll Girl temporarily out of commission, there must be some itchy ticky fingers out there! And so, I give you: (dys)functional relationships of the Buffyverse, inspired by [personal profile] ever_neutral's capslocky rage. :)
