Oh dear God it's less than six weeks till exams. WAAAAHHH!!
Two, TWO!, reports due tomorrow by 5pm. Got alright results but have yet to even start the writeup on one of them. ::facepalms::

Anyway. During this rather pointless post (which is purely done to assure the world, myself included, that I am still alive), I will at least point people in the direction of this rather fun article in the Guardian. (Gakked from doyle_sb4)

Women want more gay sex on TV. Apparently.

Nooo. Really?


ETA: So, I'm back again. Been browsing though LJ-land. moonlettuce has hit on the brilliant idea of maybe trying to get HBO to pick up AtS. She lists several thoughtful points to consider as well as a very convincing argument regarding the possibilities of the opening scene of an HBO AtS Season 6 premiere...

I was reading my mum's Tory Tabloid at the weekend; it was going all huffy at the Archers'Gay Kiss, the disgraceful amount of gay sex on the box and how three seconds of buggery had to be cut from "Footballers Wives".

The article mentioned "Bombshell", a gay army drama. Does anyone know when this is to be screened - assuming it hasn't been already?

[lonelybrit]

Awwwwwwwww! Adam and Ian!! They're so sweet!!!

*cough*

yes I do listen to the Archers if it's on. What of it?

Actually the kiss was pretty tame considering what we had to listen to Brian and what's-her-name get up to. And it's not as though it took anyone by surprise. Besides, it's been put on the side for the moment whilst we all feel the pain caused by Clive.
Again.

Yes, I'm heartless, I do find it boring.

Well duh. They just getting that? Although I'm still getting serious eww comments from some of my friends about my *coughliteraturecough* choices

[lonelybrit]

Yep, some of my friends still don't get why two guys might be a nice thing to contemplate.

Others of my friends *cough*eloise_bright*cough* wound up getting pulled in like the rest of us. Rest assured, the revolution is coming... :)

Sucked in more like it! And I only read it if it's well-written (or that's what I keep telling myself...) for egs. see willshenillshe's Slashed Sonnet Sequence, and janedavitt's stuff - particularly Snowbound... sighs at the thought of Regency Wes... all anguished and cross at being coddled...

Sorry, lost my train of thought there. Can't write it though. Can barely write het. I'm finishing KJ's fic pressie at the minute - Wes/Lilah - and I promised her R rated stuff and Lilah so wants to be naughty, but my stupid fingers won't co-operate. They keep blushing and wanting to write 'Fade to black...'

Commiserations on the exam horizon - but just think - in a couple of months time you can write fic to your heart's content.

ETA - just popped the Wes/Lilah thing in a PM at Wesleys/c for your beta goodness, if you have time. No rush, my love.
*hugs you*

Don't let them get you. I need some good fluffy stories to calm myself down in between all the slashy stuff. Can't wait to read your R rated Wes/Lilah piece, though.

[eloise-bright.livejournal.com]

'Don't let them get you'

Don't worry! I can't write slash at all. It all comes out subtexty or as family fic! And regarding the Wes/Lilah - don't think I hit R. Maybe PG15? I'm just a gen writer at heart, really!

[lonelybrit]

LOL! Oh don't talk to me about writing smut. You're so right, anything more than... well, anything really and my fingers twitch and refuse to work. If my conscience could blush it would. *sigh* Wretched isn't it...

Have done one report, so will see how things are going by tomorrow regarding beta-ing and such. Can't wait to see it :)

article's a good read, Chandler and Joey did make a lovely couple before Monica ruined it all, and the Footballer's Wives thing really irritates me, who are Media Watch to say I cant see that? If they dont want to, here's a bold idea, dont bloody watch it!

Eh, sorry. :)

Ah, I remember when Queer As Folk first aired how ladies of certain kind were phoning up to complain about there being, wait for it, gay sex. On sceen. Ewwwww!

*sigh*

What were they expecting exactly?

[(Anonymous)]

I venehmently dislike Media Watch, bunch of facists telling me what i can and cant watch, its that kind of thinking that led to the banning of Christmas! As they disagree with my opinion, they should be banned!

*oblivious to the irony* :)

Es

[lonelybrit]

Nope. They should be tied to a chair and made to watch gay porn until their minds implode. Bannings too good for them! ;)
