Oct. 14th, 2006 11:46 amI was reallyquiteill last night. I think it was something in the kedgeree or possibly just my wonderfully ineffective stomachal system. I'm vaguely upright, now, and experiencing a bizarre urge to watch original Star Trek. And I was prompted to make this entry by the fact that I've seen the same mistake in fic twice in the past two days and it's really annoying me. It's lay on. Lay on, alright?
Thank you.
Thank you.

Date: 2006-10-14 12:57 pm (UTC):D I love that picture. I wish I could get a better icon of it - pictures big enough to keep the expression don't get in enough of the computer, really. But heeee, Rodney. (and YOUR rodney icon! *hart*)

But omfg the Storm/Eye is so sad- poor baby was TORTURED and thought he didn't stand up well enough and he really, really tried and OH RODNEY. *cuddles him tight* And yes there are a few fics where John's all "d;oh i was an ass" and I especially love the one where it turns out the reason Rodney's bandage is on the outside of his uniform is cause he tried to do it himself and then John's all "wha, ok, I'll re-do that" and Rodney's all "ok, but, just, don't tell me if it's nothing and I should've been fine, ok?" and BABIES.

Because I've been saying "Discourse unto the hand, for the ears hear thee not" for years. :D

Therefore alright is all right.
THIS IS MY THEORY. MY HANDS ARE BANANAS.
