WHOA THAT WAS FAST. :D

I may not have answers for all of these on all of them/some of my answers may be platonic in nature. Just a caveat.

My M/F OTP: Erica/Eduardo. Bonding over all the many ways Mark has been a douche.
My M/M OTP: Uh...is it possible not to answer Mark/Eduardo for this?
My F/F OTP: THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH LADIES TO LEGIT ANSWER THIS. Because Christy's an awesomely crazy character but I wouldn't subject Erica to her.
My OT3: Sean Parker/his ego/his paranoia
My endgame OTP: seriously do not have one. not for this movie.
My original OTP: didn't have one in this movie. i don't really slash and this movie is all about the slash, so i didn't watch it with ship glasses on.
My crack OTP: THE WINDOW OF KIRKLAND/THE ALGORITHM (did I even spell that right? whatever)
My guilty pleasure OTP: Sean/Christy, because my mind is a devious place
My anti-OTP: Mark/Erica. HE DOES NOT DESERVE HER. I HOPE SHE NEVER ACCEPTS YOUR FRIEND REQUEST MARK.
My crossover OTP: Oooh! Fun! Um...Eduardo/Caroline Forbes. GOING FOR THE RANDOM.

SORRY I LOOK FOR ANY AND ALL EXCUSES TO SHIP in the world of THE SOCIAL NETWORK.

My F/F OTP is Christy/Amy (the girl Sean sleeps with the night he discovers Facebok). They get together post-movie and write a collaborative memoir: "Sleeping with the Enemy."

I love your OT3 a lot.

OMG. You and your paranoia Sean Parker. NEVER CHANGE.

CALZONES ARE STUPID. I said, good day!

NEW GUY BEN CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR FORTHCOMING ROMANTIC SUBPLOT I AM VERY EXCITED FOR YOU.

This made me lol.

Ooh. TVD. Tell me. I am a little bit in love with Elijah--he's a BAMF. And I know everyone hates him, but I'm sad to to see Tyler go. Obvs. he's coming back. But still. I want epic conflict with him on the vampire team and Jules the Terrible on the other team.

Fandom: TVD. GO.

[identity profile] penny-lane-42.livejournal.com 2011-02-11 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
CALZONES! That joke made me laugh loads.

Elijah is awesome and also weirdly hot.

I said, "Bye-bye, Tyler! Don't let the door hit you on the way out!" But everyone else I know likes him. Weird.

OKAY!

My M/F OTP: At the moment I'm shipping Bonnie/Jeremy hardcore
My M/M OTP: in a completely platonic way because I don't do incest, Stefan/Damon because they're more interesting together.
My F/F OTP: If I was going to ship it, it would be Elena/Bonnie/Caroline
My OT3: Stefan/Katherine/Damon for maximum complications and drama!
My endgame OTP: Caroline/happiness/being alive. See also: Bonnie/happiness/being alive.
My original OTP: Elena/Damon. Which amuses me greatly now.
My crack OTP: I feel like this is a difficult show to have a crack pairing for. Everyone will end up together at some point.
My guilty pleasure OTP: It's not a guilty pleasure, but it would make me really happy to see more Jenna/Alaric WITH HIM TELLING HER THE TRUTH ABOUT THINGS
My anti-OTP: Tyler/anyone.
My crossover OTP: Bonnie/Charles Gunn

[identity profile] ever-neutral.livejournal.com 2011-02-12 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Everyone doesn't hate Tyler, bro! He's actually become a pretty popular (yet contentious) character. ~You are not alone.~

[identity profile] blackfrancine.livejournal.com 2011-02-12 07:20 am (UTC)(link)
Yay! I'm not alone. Look! I went insane and bought a paid account and a bajillion icons. Here's Tyler.

*curtsies* Thak you!

My M/F OTP: Ron/Hermione. DUH.
My M/M OTP: Ron/Harry being bros

My endgame OTP: Ron/Hermione
My original OTP: Ron/Hermione
My crack OTP: Snape/Sinistra from "Lamentations of a Starry-Eyed Twit"
My guilty pleasure OTP: anything involving Draco automatically gets on my guilty pleasure list.

I like this crossover ship addition because I totally see Ginny/Oz. Also, do you think we could get dollsome to write more Snape/Sinistra? That is seriously my ice cream and blanket on bad days. It would, of course, have to look like an accident.

Ahhh I agree with all of your Parks and Recs thoughts of capslock squee!

My M/M OTP: Sam/Lee. HAHAHAHAHAHA!
My F/F OTP: I...don't really have one.
My OT3: not on this show, sorry
My endgame OTP: the Fighting Agathons. Also, I surprised myself with how pleased I was that Gaius/Caprica Six ended up together.
My original OTP: I really, really liked Bill/Laura until Bill made me hate him in the last season or so.
My crack OTP: Sam/Dee. Because I wanted them to be happy! Plus they would have been pretty together.
My guilty pleasure OTP: Dee/Felix
My anti-OTP: Gaius/Kara freaked me the heck out
My crossover OTP: Billy/Dawn Summers

[identity profile] zombie_boogie.livejournal.com 2011-02-11 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Your two OTPs are my OTPs ♥. I also like the idea of Sam/Dee, because I feel like they got screwed over (and yes, the hotness factor would have been pleasant).

Also I forgot to mention this in my original comment but TANGLED. ALL OF THE HEARTS IN ALL OF MY EYES.

SO MUCH LOVE for Parks and Rec. I haven't seen yesterday's episode yet though so SHH. (Haha, I mean, you can talk about it elsewhere, just not in the reply to this comment.)

AUBREY PLAZA CONGRATULATIONS ON BEING THE POSSESSOR OF THE GREATEST BITCHPLZ/ANNOYED/BORED OUT OF MY MIND FACE IN EXISTENCE.

Aubrey Plaza is my favourite. Truth.

OK, now I can't think of any other fandoms, so...Parks and Rec for the meme. GO.

I'm new to the show and my love BURNS STRONG. And my lips are zipped as far as last night goes!

She's flawless. The way she looks at the camera and the way she let us know that April had a crush on Andy far before anything was said made me so happy.

My M/F OTP: I'm really feeling Leslie/Ben now
My M/M OTP: Tom/Justin, because Tom's love for him was hilarious
My F/F OTP: Leslie/Ann as BFFs forever and ever
My OT3: Oh, silliness!
My endgame OTP: right now I really, really want Leslie/Ben
My original OTP: Ann/Mark
My crack OTP: I shockingly don't have one!
My guilty pleasure OTP: Tom/Wendy. I really shouldn't want him with anyone because he's awful when you really think about it. Can't help it, though!
My anti-OTP: Tom/Ann
My crossover OTP: April and Connor from AtS. PETULENT TEENAGERS.

My M/F OTP: Victor/Sierra aka Tony/Priya forever and ever amen
My M/M OTP: I wanted to see an epic bromance between Tony and Alpha--them hugging and the "who would do something so terrible to your face?" line was GLORIOUS
My F/F OTP: I liked the hints of Echo and Priya being BFFs that we saw
My OT3: Victor/Sierra/Echo as BFFs
My endgame OTP: Tony/Priya
My original OTP: Victor/Sierra
My crack OTP: it's not really crack, but there wasn't a lot of canonical support for DeWitt/Dominic but they were still glorious
My guilty pleasure OTP: Topher/Bennett
My anti-OTP: Caroline or Echo/Ballard. EWWWWW.
My crossover OTP: Priya/Spike or Topher/Dawn

[identity profile] streussal.livejournal.com 2011-02-14 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
I think everyone ships Sierra/Victor aka Priya/Tony. They're just perfect. (After I finished the first season, I talked to someone about how they're the least creepy pairing on the show - which is saying something when they were spending most of their time as blank dolls.)

Topher/Bennett was bizarrely cute in a creepy sort of way. (I also ship Caroline/Bennett actually. They could have been fluffy and then manipulation and abandonment and BITTER RESENTMENT. Awesome times.)

Caroline or Echo/Ballard is. Yeah. I actually enjoyed how we were supposed to find Ballard's obsession kind of disturbing in the first season. And then the writers forgot or something idk. (I do admit to sort of liking the ending with her downloading him into her head. It was just so bizarre that it kind of made me ship it. Caroline/the people in her head.)

I guess I'm alone in how I wasn't as impressed with Tangled as everyone else is. Mandy Moore has the slightest lisp that annoys me so I was taken out of the film a little too much, and the music wasn't as good as the Eisner-era hand drawn fare. It was cute, there were some exquisitely executed scenes, and I loved Flynn Rider, but I'd take Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, or The Little Mermaid over it any day.

You're probably at the movie now, anyway. So this does not matter.

I am THRILLED by your potential TWW gender swap. It's a show that I'm excited to see swapped, whereas something like Buffy doesn't need to be swapped because it already has such feminist gender bending credentials anyway. So that's my thought for the day.

I have Parks and Rec on my to-watch list after finishing Being Human, Downton Abbey and Miranda, so that's cool. And maybe the separation TVD and I have been going through since the romance died may be at an end? I'll check it out.

And . . . meme time . . . I'll be the one to point at the pink elephant in the room. BtVS. Go!

If you hadn't been, I would have! I somehow feel that I can guess the het OTP, but some of the others I'm not so sure of.

[identity profile] ever-neutral.livejournal.com 2011-02-12 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
No, I was not that crazy about Tangled either. Or rather, I really really loved some parts, and others I really didn't. I also didn't find the music terribly impressive either.

I just watched it and all I could think during the big romantic WATCH THE LIGHTS scene was that they ripped off The Little Mermaid.

My M/F OTP: HAAAAAARD. Either Chris/Jal or Tony/Michelle. Or even Sid/Cassie.
My M/M OTP: Tony/Sid EPIC BROMANCE FOREVER AND EVER. Tony always loved him best.
My F/F OTP: Michelle/Jal EPIC GIRLMANCE FOREVER AND EVER.
My OT3: Tony/Michelle/Sid in all its screwed-up-ness
My endgame OTP: Uhhh...I actually really did want to see Cassie and Sid find each other and build something healthy. I knew Tony and Michelle was never going to be endgame AND CHRIS IS DEAD SOB SOB SOB, so we'll go with those two.
My original OTP: Sid/Cassie
My crack OTP: I seriously don't have one. How weird is that?
My guilty pleasure OTP: nope
My anti-OTP: Anything involving Sketch
My crossover OTP: Tony/Blair Waldorf. Or anything where a guy really appreciates Michelle. I need to think about who I can pair her up with who will treat her well and love her. Help me come up with something!

Everyone is OTP-able, guh. The friendships, the romances, everything.

Michelle/Tommy Donnelly? Except that everything he touches is doomed so maybe not.

My crossover OTP is Tony/Veronica Mars, but it doesn't have to be romantic. I just want to see them solving a case with Veronica being snarky and Tony being devious and both of them torturing Don Lamb!

Thursday night tv was delightful on all fronts, but Parks & Rec induced epic levels of flailing. So Good. <333

How about Being Human for the meme?

You know, one day, when I have limitless internet and considerably more free time, I will watch West Wing. Is it like Boston Legal at all? I read through the transcripts of Boston Legal and enjoyed them thoroughly. (I do not, as a general rule, watch things unless I feel I absolutely must - and even thus, it takes ages. So I read transcripts instead! It works, sometimes, though it totally didn't for Scrubs, which I will also have to watch one day.)

As for the meme, I am going to be a rebel and ask for animated Disney moves. Like, Disney princesses but also the films that don't officially count, like Robin Hood. Pan-Disney pairings welcome, like Charlotte/Aurora or whatever. This is mostly inspired by Tangled (did you like it?) and by some fairly unsuccessful Yuletide fic I read recently.

Or, if that doesn't work or you don't mind my abusing the "or several! or dozens!" thing, do Angel, do Angel!

ETA: ... do Angel could be read as a morally and aestheticaly problematic demand, unless you like that sort of brow. I meant do AtS. Although that acronym irks me unreasonably for some reason.
