Questions and rants

[darcydodo]

Why do I feel perfectly decent and humane about killing an ant, while killing a small moth makes me want to apologise to its crushed and (reasonably) still form, with the glitter of its wing dust spread about it in blots and smudges?

Why does no one know the plural of penis?

Where has my muse vanished away to? I haven't written anything in possibly months. And I don't have any ideas of stuff to write. I've been attempting to ponder tzeentch's request for Willow/Drusilla, and I might have some vague ideas, but... *sigh*

On a completely unrelated note, the Men's Octet performance was great, as expected, and OTR... well... rocked. And the film was hilarious, though not so funny as last year. That, however, would be an unimaginable feat. Tomorrow, more a cappella!

This guy knows the plural of penis!

[darcydodo]

Ah, I love Cecil. :)

And thanks for the very appropriate Wild Llama Penis of the Serengeti. ;)

[miggy.livejournal.com]

I'm all about the, er, inappropriate appropriateness. ;)

Penes.

Why?

Yay!

Just 'cause people whom I tend to consider educated have all been getting it very wrong recently, the most common mistakes being peni and penii. I'd love to hear some guy refer to his penius, one day. :)

It's far more likely that such an idiot would be likely to refer to his 'Biggus Dickus', don't you think?

Come on, that's not idiocy, that's high culture!

Ooh, it's good to know you haven't given up on the Willow/Dru fic yet! I was wondering what was up with that. :)

Also, was it just me, or did Max come off as a very gay male model in the Octet mini-film last night? He even had a little lisp! :)

Argh! You've got Koko's song in my head now!

[darcydodo]

Of course he did. Did you think he was supposed to be anything else?!

*giggles*

*waits for tzeentch to look blank*

*looks blank*

[tzeentch.livejournal.com]

Well, um, a straight male model?

[darcydodo]

But that would be too accurate. The Octet doesn't go for accuracy. Or did you fail to notice? ;) (Oh wait, Parker being entirely stoned and out of it...)

Gilbert & Sullivan reference, m'dear.

On the contrary, it was completely accurate, but taken too far. For instance: Brian is a geek, Robin is really asian, Parker is stoned... ok maybe that's it, but still.

And a friend of mine owes me five bucks. He bet that Max was gay. :)
