Crowley was in Hell's bad books.
Aug. 26th, 2010 03:22 pmSo they have Star Wars speed dating at Dragon*Con. I've decided that Lisa should participate in this, because even though she's never seen the movies all of the facts we've fed her she knows about Star Wars are totally true and complete and would impress all but the staunchest adherents to the Force. Discussion about this Wednesday night brought about discussion on how to find your Star Wars name, which involves some sort of complicated ciphering and standing on one foot and touching your nose with your eyes closed. It's a lot like a sobriety test, honestly, and God knows I haven't been able to pass one of those since the third grade. Which means I wasn't entirely surprised to find that my Star Wars name came out to be almost impossible to pronounce using human tongues.
Larcr Stfer. If left to me, I'd prefer to pronounce it Larcroix St. Fer. I could be some sort of nobility, I'm sure. I'd get a tauntaun all my own and ample land to graze it away from creepy, lightsaber wielding mad men looking to 'tag' him by gutting him. Of course, Lisa and Em have decided it's actually pronounced more like Lurker Stiffer, which I guess isn't exactly false advertising since I am often lurking and my internet penis is huge.
Lisa told me that they're holding a special party for the blood donors at the con and there will probably be famous people at it. In fact, she's hoping that Mark Sheppard will be at it, so she can rub in the fact that she got to meet him and I didn't. And also so she can tell him that the reason I can't give blood is because in the state of Florida you have to wait a year to give blood after your last tattoo. And what was my last tattoo of? Crowley. (And Aziraphale, but I doubt he'd care so much about that.) Thereby implying that I am way more obsessed with him than I am. (IT WASN'T EVEN HIS CROWLEY.) I won't even be there to defend my lurker stiffer self. I'll just be creeping around elsewhere, crying my lurky tears.
And possibly using all my con free time to write an Inception steampunk AU. Someone tell me not to do that. >.>

blast, you told us to tell you not to.
well, oops.
no subject
Date: 2010-08-26 07:34 pm (UTC)Also, I meant to PM you! I went to the post office instead of just relying on the internet adjuster thing and the lady behind the counter said I should be able to ship that stuff to you for $6? So I was thinking, if you still wanted it and could send me $15 US dollars (two more than for the books, mostly to make up for what pay pal will take out) then I'll just go ahead and send them your way. Since it's mostly about getting stuff out of my apartment and to a good home.

Your internet penis needs to be shared with the world.

Date: 2010-08-26 07:37 pm (UTC)I can't remember what my Star Wars name is? I picked a generator off the list, and it appears it is Jesst Widam or Jesst Wiroc. I can actually see Jesst Widam as a real SW name, so that works.

Date: 2010-08-26 08:12 pm (UTC)Also, I feel like Dom would disapprove of this use of the totems, but what that stick in the mud doesn't know won't hurt him. [/taking the Eames approach]

Date: 2010-08-26 08:16 pm (UTC)Pfft, Dom Cobb doesn't even know which way is up half the time. We do, thus we can use the totems sensibly. Ithinkthismeanswecan'tgamblewiththemthough

Date: 2010-08-26 07:41 pm (UTC)I think that Star Wars speed dating sounds awesome. Can you give me details. Maybe we should do something like that for Orycon.
Write it!
no subject
Date: 2010-08-26 08:10 pm (UTC)I can certainly see if I can do some research to find out things for you. All I know about it now is that it's happening. Apparently it happened at Celebration V too, which is actually why we started talking about Star Wars names, because McKay said that at Celebration you weren't allowed to use your real name and I was wondering what kind of Star Wars name I'd have to come up with.
WRITING THINGS TAKES EFFORT THOUGH. UGH.

Date: 2010-08-26 08:26 pm (UTC)Most of the why nots are tied into needing time to write original things people might actually want to publish one day. I have always loved instant gratification, though. I appreciate your support! :p

Date: 2010-08-26 08:13 pm (UTC)Star Wars speed dating sounds awesome. :) If I remember correctly, my Star Wars name was Anase Popas. Or something. I like your pronunciation of Larcr Stfer, but Lurker Stiffer is pretty funny. :P
no subject
Date: 2010-08-26 08:29 pm (UTC)I am so sad that everyone else's Star Wars names have enough vowels in them to make them possible to pronounce. Maybe it just means they don't want me in that universe. :(
no subject
Date: 2010-08-26 08:33 pm (UTC)But...Popas. I...don't even. It's just funny looking. I don't like it. And then there's pronunciation. I go for Poh-pah. Cause pop-ass, well...actually, that's pretty funny.
