graculusIn the spirit of the season, I thought I'd take a moment to apportion some blame for the sorry state of fannish obsessiveness I find myself in nowadays. Who knows, it could catch on? ;)
Things I can't blame anyone for:
Man from UNCLE - unless it's my mother, for letting me watch it when I was 8. However,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
obelix hasn't helped any!
Stargate SG-1 - it just came along at the wrong time and caught me unawares. Little did I know that watching a simple show would lead to me becoming one of the Evil Bad Fans I never even knew existed way back then! *waves tonausica2, xochiquetzl and obelix, among others...*
Nero Wolfe - a long-standing obsession, only 2 books to go till the complete series is mine! Mwahahaha! I'd like to blamedmarley but I don't have a time machine...
Aubrey/Maturin - again, I fell for those two long before I knew such a thing as slash existed...
Magnificent 7 - once again, the right characters at the right time, resistance was futile!
Things I can definitely blame someone for:
Wild Wild West - all the fault of thatprzed and her fellow talented UNCLE writers, who led me astray...
Real Ghostbusters - this time the blame must be laid withzortified, without whom I would never have thought of cartoon characters that way! ;)
Hong Kong movies - *scowls meaningfully at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-syndicated.gif)
blktauna* It was downhill all the way, once the ho hengdai got a mention.
Harry Potter - it's all the fault of people likepredatrix, lexin, dementordelta that I've read so much HP slash in the past year or so.
Dead Zone - I would never have watched that if it wasn't forxochiquetzl and her persuasive ways! Damn her!
Who knows what 2004 will bring? :)
