Grouchiness and sleepiness
Jul. 22nd, 2004 11:13 amThings I have learned this morning:
1. A spoon works better than a knife when making coffee
2. Milk works better than OJ in that coffee
3. When I need a second cup of coffee in a morning and I muck it up totally, that might be a signal that I need another nap
4. 75% of Stargate fans are insane
5. Most of the insane ones are on the AG list, but a few of them have spread onto other lists
6. If I see one more Orrymain post...
Actually, 6 may not be a lesson - more of a threat. Now that voting in the Fanfic Awards is over I'm feeling a little less inclined to be nice about the beagle-writing idiot. Even her non-fic posts are like nails scraping on a blackboard. Argh! I feel sorry for the poor newbie she directed toward her fic at the weekend. Mind you, said poor newbie was looking for fics 'where Jack and Daniel are married and working on the Stargate'. Paraphrasing slightly, but not as much as you'd think. I have no problem with people liking a certain kind of fic (even if it is so far detached from reality that I want to spork my eyes out), but I wish they wouldn't deluge lists with their views on fluffy-wuffy Daniel and Jackikins.
Yeah, I may be grouchy this morning. Just a tiny bit. And I've had my coffee and everything.

and in many categories i'd read at least 1-2 fics, so i was ok :)
others, i voted by author rep, esp if i'd read OTHER stuff by them and liked!
ANYTHING to deprive her of a vote :) :)

Yup, same here. Usually I don't vote in catagories that I haven't read at least a couple of fics in, but this year I picked authors whose work I like and respect even if I hadn't actually read the piece that had been nominated in a catagory. I really didn't want her to get wins by default. I get the feeling that there were a lot of people who did that.
