misscam: (Bored!Grissom)
[personal profile] misscam
My birthday is tomorrow. Whee.

And look, CSI shippers go at it again. TV Guide has a poll on who Grissom should be with. Grillows wants to win it! GSRers roll their eyes! Because polls are serious shipping business, oh yes.

So...

[Poll #676643]

Meanwhile, doping scandal looms in the Olympics. Whoops there, Austrian coach. Crashing while trying to flee the police, that looks reeeeeal good.

P.S Dear Hellfire,

STFU already

Have to be a member. But registering is free and all.

No, dear - Grisson. Possibly Grissom's long-lost clone from the lab in which he was grown. I say we pair Sara up with him and give Grissom a nice swift kick in the balls. Partly to say, "Ha! You lose!" and partly just because it'd be fun.

Hahahaa. I so voted for more porn and less wank. Smut above all.

But seriously, 'ship names? Grillows... Essom... Gofia... Grecklie... it's starting to sound like a bacteria party.

Stupid poll, though (not yours). How can you get worked up over something like that? It's TV Guide for fuck's sake.

I've given up on CSI ship names. They're destined to be idiotic, it seems. GSR is tolerable. I can live with it. But some of the others... Cowpokes? Noooo.

Cowpokes? I'm having very slashy thoughts here, but please enlighten me.

I like GSR and Yo!Bling as names. Whoever came up with Yo!Bling rocks.

New Cath/Nick ship name. Guess Hillbillies wasn't cutting it.

I can't believe Lady Heather has only gotten 3% of the votes! I mean, Willow/Grissom makes no sense, she is way too mature and emotional for him and while I do like Sara/Grissom it's never going to happen. Ever. They're just too "Moth and Flame" to ever be happy.

I voted that they should rename their ships. I mean, what's wrong with just spelling them out?

Hellfire is an idiot and needs to grow up. That's all I'm going to say.

Not cool enough, I guess.

I'm sorry, but unless GSR or Grillows folks reach the level of Harmonians I will continue to yawn at them.

Let Hellfire speak. The more she does, the stupider she sounds.

When you're in a fandom with them, that ain't as easy.

Aw, happy birthday! I think we established in chat some months ago that I'm only like a month older than you or something. I feel insufferably wiser. *savors* ;)

Try harder, Harry Potter is still miles ahead in batshit shippers

I picked that one because, honestly? They are beyond my understanding at this point. Saying they are delusional and crazy doesn't even begin to cover it. I think we've arrived at the point where the term 'batshit' is no longer enough to describe the sheer insanity in the HP fandom. Their blatant and wilful misunderstanding of the words written on the page is beyond comprehension. That, or they really have that special edition written, printed, and bound just for the Harmonian and Wolfstar 'shippers ::barfs:: I mean, look at those two 'ship names! Has the CSI fandom ever, ever come anywhere close to that?

And honestly, I don't ship anyone on CSI, except for maybe Warrick and me. ;) Pairing the characters up is fine for fandom, I guess, but I think in a lot of ways it would ruin the dynamics of the show and it would degenerate quickly into an evening soap opera. That is not appealing to me at all.

HP is the fandom that all others pale against, except perhaps LotR. (Tinhats and MsA and VB and all.) Damn.

But CSI fandom might be smaller, but it still has its batshit. Babydoll, anyone?

heh, a friend sent the pic to me in an email. A snake's head has been blended with a banana. In the larger pic, you can see the scales mixing with the banana. There's also another couple of weird ones, like a frog made of orange peel. Once I figure out how to get them uploaded to scrapbook, I'll post them.

First thought was to tell them to convert to Doctor Who...then I remembered what kind of people populate the CSI fandom. *cough* Babydoll!*cough*

So I went with the stay as they are. The wank is fun!

Hehehe.

See, bit of a trick question, that one. I did consider that when I made it a poll option. Do we really want Babydoll shipping Doctor/Rose?

Date: 2006-02-21 03:28 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] ericasj.livejournal.com
LOL I wasn't into polls until this month. I think I've been converted into a poll maniac by some C/G shippers. Anyway, I vote just because I think it's fun and if I can help my favorite character win, then why not? But it's really sad that some people from both sides think people from "the other ship" are playing tricks, or hacking the site to win the poll. I mean, you don't like "the other ship", that's fine. But do you have to think so negatively towards others? Grrrr...

From: [identity profile] misscam.livejournal.com
*shrugs* I might've voted in ealier polls like that, but it's the whole "that'll show them who's ship is best!" attitude that makes me majorly roll my eyes. Until TPTB (if they ever do) make a ship decidedly Canon in the show, they're pretty much all on equal footing, so what is the big deal?

Also, Lindsey is not Gil's daughter. Kthxbai.

Date: 2006-02-21 08:06 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] ericasj.livejournal.com
I guess you're right. I don't get that attitude, either. No one -except TPTB- can show others what the "real" ship is. And I don't think TPTB are going to do this until the very last few episodes of the entire series. This is CSI after all.

LMAO @ the Lindsey one. No, I do not think that's the deal at all. That's why I just remain silent every time they talk about taking a paternity test.

Date: 2006-02-21 08:41 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] misscam.livejournal.com
Yeah, probably. Though granted, some ships get more... teased, shall we say, than others. But I certainly don't expect anything major any time soon. We'll see, anyway. But the way people go about it, you'd think this was a football match and it's all about getting s acore up on your "competition".

Yeah, the whole "Grissom is really Lindsey's father!" attitude just boggles me. I can see a soap pull that kind of story twist, but CSI? Unlikely like whoa.

Meh.

*isn't into CSI*

I tried to get the Hellfire link, having finally registered at Gaff, but no luck. Bleh. Given that she seems to be about as mature as a four year old, if that, I'm not quite sure I want to see it.

Stupid Olympians. I'm certain the world is going crazy.

I so did -not- stuff your ballot-box.

Link works for me. Maybe you need your account validated first. If you can log in, it's in the Gabbery forum. You'll spot it.

*nods* After validating the account, it worked.

She really is an idiot. I especially loved the "All Muslims are barbaric and having babies faster than us, therefore they suck! (But I'm not a bigot.)"

Just actually read the CSI boards you linked cos I was bored.

I love it when there are online polls, because there are always silly people around to squeal, "ooh this is fun, let's sit here all night and refresh and keep voting until the result we want happens! What an achievement!"

And it's usually preceded by an email/post that says something like "A call to arms! Our favourite actor/tv show/pairing needs our support to win a poll!" And I dive for the delete key.

*votes for Lady Heather just to annoy all of them*

*pokes tongue out and votes 100 000 more times and sends emails to everyone she knows telling them to get on their computers and like vote all night if they have to because we must win win win or else the universe will IMPLODE!*

*wheezes*

Fuck, I can't breathe now.
