ok, so. i demand amusement. confess something dorky that you do! not like "omg i would totally bang cash colligan. /o\" but like, ok, here's mine: scott and i play a fair amount of scrabble and we recently got a scrabble dictionary, so a lot of two-letter words that weren't in the normal dictionary are now in play. and i enjoy beating him at things, so i have the list of two-letter words bookmarked on my phone so i can stare at it whenever the mood strikes and therefore improve my chances of always beating him. (i usually do.) XD
another confession, altho this isn't so much something i do as much as a geeky theory, and will only (maybe) make sense to the hardcore dcook fans on my flist, but: "ziggy stardust" (um, minus the ending) is totes about dave from andy & neal's pov in the angsty 'verse in my head. "made it too far; became the special man, then we were ziggy's band," "he played it [guitar] left-hand," "ziggy really sang, screwed-up eyes and screwed-down hairdo," "well-hung, snow-white tan," "he could lick 'em by smiling," i mean, come on! if i had more mwk/andy/neal footage at my disposal i would totes make a creepy au video.[/crazy]
anyway, tell me dorky things about yourself!

Date: 2008-10-16 08:20 pm (UTC)Dorky, but I'm proud of it: I used to be a major Trekkie. I went to the Trek exhibition with a friend when they came through my country. I used to be able to name all the Voyager episodes. And give you short summaries for all of them. My current PIN for my cell phone is still something trek related. (I've used the same one for years). I suffered through Enterprise because it's Star Trek and I couldn't *not* watch it. I own a German-Klingon dictionary, and sometimes I still use phrases from it. (I never mastered the full language). I own about 40+ Trek books. I've read them more than once.
I once held a presentation about the Physics of Star Trek and how some of the stuff is real today. Sort of. First for some stupid project I wanted to get into and we were supposed to talk about something we're passionate about (I got in). Then I held it front of my class.
And I could go on.
I'm not really an "active" Trekkie anymore, but it still holds a special place in my heart. I still desperately want to meet Q (hey, if a Q like being is out there, they could make it real. Or put me in an alternate reality where it is already real. I'm just sayin'... anything's possible). I still LOL at Janeway's hair, just thinking about it. I still adore many of the characters. And I squee at random Trek references. I also still "recognize" a lot of random guest actors and when I look them up on imdb, some random Trek episode is the only place I could have seen them before.
And I have the urge to watch some Trek at least once a year.
I love your Ziggy analogy. :)
