5 Fandom Friday: Favourite Fictional Fathers
In honor of Father’s Day, much as for Mother’s Day, we are listing out favourite fiction fathers this weekend! 1. Bob Belcher from Bob’s Burgers is sort of the “straight man” to his wacky family, but that’s what they need. Also, the burger puns. 2. Giles from Buffy the Vampire Slayer isn’t so much really…

5 Fandom Friday: On The BIG Screen!
Sooo, Hollywood is all about making movies of things. And TV series. And that’s terrible. ART IS ART! Okay? Comics are a medium unto themselves. Who ever suggested making a pilot of the Mona Lisa, or turning Starry Night into a blockbuster? I can’t even wrap my head around how terribly stupid it would be…

5 Fandom Friday: I'm Cool Like…
This week’s prompt is to list fictional characters that you identify with. As much as I wish I was totall awesome like Buffy Summers and Donna Noble, I’m probably just lame like these guys: 1. Batgirl of Burnside probably the reason I keep reading is because despite how she makes me face palm every time…

5 Fandom Friday: Binge-worthy
This week’s prompt is your most binge-worthy TV shows! I have so many that when I start, I just can’t stop. I don’t have “normal” TV, so all I ever do is stream, stream, stream on my Hulu! Here’s my most guilty binge-pleasures: 1. Battlestar Galactica is like Pringles – you can’t have just one! …

5 Fandom Friday: OH MAMA!
In honor of Mother’s Day (probably?) let’s dish on favourite moms! Kinda weird, but okay… 1. Joyce Summers was the coolest of the cool teenage vampire slayers’ moms. Sure, Buffy and her’s relationship wasn’t always perfect, but she stuck up for her daughter and was pretty badass in her own right – esp. with Giles…

FEELING: reinvigorated: blue skies are my high. I’m a summer baby, through and through. Seeing sunshine (even though it’s still blustery and cold) is giving me hope for warmer temperatures ahead! WATCHING: The Twilight Zone for my lesson planning. Work has consumed my life. More on that later… LISTENING TO: Mad new wave. Two new…

FEELING: Confused beyond words! I’m so uncertain of what my future should be like. It’s almost completely crippling! But I’m really upbeat about it! WATCHING: I’ve been eagerly awaiting each new RuPaul’s Drag Race and devouring the entire Broad City! LISTENING TO: Lots of bouncy new wave, especially Morissey! READING: I started Love in the…

5 Fandom Friday: FBFF’s
Like, if these people actually existed, we’d totally be best friends in real life because how could we not? 1. & 2. Willow & Xander from Buffy the Vampire Slayer are the coolest people in the whole of the world forever and ever amen. If you don’t get along with these two, you’re probably deficient…

FEELING: Overworked and overwhelmed. I just got back from a school break and right away it’s back to the grind in a big way! I’m worried about next year still, but after the emotional roller coaster of this school year, I feel like I can handle anything that gets thrown my way. This year has…

5 Fandom Friday: I Heart U & U
Ah, swooning over fictional couples, a time-honoured fandom tradition! Nothing like the perfect romance that can only exist in stories to make your actual life seem like crap. And that’s why we love it! 1. Lazarus Long and Adorable Dora, Time Enough For Love by Robert A. Heinlein tl:dr version: LL rescues a baby from…

5 Fandom Friday: Funko POP!
I can only imagine collecting Funko POP! figures would be a very, very slippery slope for me. For one thing, I have very limited storage-display space in my home. For another thing, they’re all so cute! This year, they’re rolling out figures of some of my favourite fandoms and I just can’t take the plunge…

5 Fandom Friday: Fandom Resolutions
I’m not like, 100% sure what a “fandom resolution” is yet, so I may be wayyy off base here in my list, but I’m also really excited to see how everyone else interpreted the prompt! On with the Five! 1. Watch more Classic Doctor Who (2, 3, and 5) because I loooove me some Tom…

FEELING: I’m currently in the middle of Winter Break from school and I could absolutely get used to this! I can’t believe I’m sleeping in until after the sun rises (SO BRIGHT!). WATCHING: I’m still working my way through recent seasons of Law & Order: SVU! When I have time, I’d love to watch more…

FEELING: Excited and challenged! I have a lot of catching up to do at my new job but I’m so excited to feel so useful, and I love hoping that I can make a difference! I feel like I should have done this a long time ago. WATCHING: After watching Cold Case at the laundromat…

5 Fandom Friday: Halloween Movies
Time again for more 5 Fandom Friday with The Nerdy Girlie and SuperSpaceChick! This week’s topic is Halloween movies you must see – which is hard because I don’t really have many! I could only think of three that I *MUST* see every year: 1. It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown! OH MY GOD, I…

Geeky Confessions
Circling around the blogosphere is a little link-up started by Mariko of Gamerwife. Loads of other nerds have listed their geek confessions and I think it does the world some good to see that there is diversity and acceptance out there, even for people who think that Riley was the best Buffy boyfriend. Well, maybe…

5 Fandom Friday: Gateway Fandoms
The Nerdy Girlie and SuperSpaceChick are running a two-month long community building project ( ? ) called Five Fandom Friday! You know I love to play these wicked games and I couldn’t resist joining in on the fun! If you do, too, please comment a link to your post as well! I look forward to…

FEELING: What a change from last month! Suddenly I feel inspired and accomplished. My plan to do a ton of little creative projects has meant I’m now having more and better ideas. I feel like I’m back to my creative self. WATCHING: Now that I’ve finished Attack on Titan, I’m loving Sailor Moon on Hulu!…

Attack on Titan
Fair warning: DO NOT start watching Attack on Titan if you have anything important happening in the next 24 hours. Because that shit is just not going to happen. Now I finally understand why NYCC ’13 was overrun by cosplayers in white leggings with electrical tape detail and brown leather jackets. It’s because Attack on…
