FINALLY SOMEBODY BRINGS THE LOLS BACK TO TORCHWOOD

[tencrush]

First spotted on the meme, obvs. You think I don't skim that thing for luls (few and far between though they may be lately), you'd be wrong!

My personal headline:
GARETH DAVID-LLOYD HOSTS PARTY, FUCKS ATTENDEES, SINK INVOLVED. PONY CONTRIBUTIONS INEXPLICABLY RISE IN UNRELATED COINCIDENCE, SALACIOUS TWEETS DISAPPEAR. STILL NO PIC OF COCK, WHELK SAD.

I was going to do a post about something GDL said at Dragon Con in a panel, and I still will, but for now I leave you with the news that he's been sticking his dick in fangirls! Well, I mean, obviously this isn't the first time he's been sticking his dick in fangirls, but Twitter really has taken off in the past year or so hasn't it?

Social networking will be the death of celebrity as we know it.


Conclusion: 140 characters is not enough to accurately describe GDL's cock. DAMN YOU! Someone find me a picture.

I don't know, lots of girls get crazy about 'celebrity', even if it's someone they weren't a fan of. I'm playing devil's advocate since it wouldn't shock me at all if it were true, and I have no reason to believe anyone is lying, but I don't take anything as blind fact. I've seen a fair few people meet a celeb they maybe had never thought about, and get so overwhelmed either by general celeb worship, the environment, the reaction from others, they end up exaggerating wildly. I remember at one of the Hubs I was staying next to this older lady Barrowman fan who was just there for him, I guess GDL made one of his usual charmer comments, she started telling everyone "ooh GDL said this to me" kind of flattered, and by the end of the weekend she semi-hyper going up to strangers to tell the story of how GDL had hit on her and reeeally wanted her. In a liminal environment like a con things get overheated quickly.

Besides, isn't "pretending to hardly know who the person is" like How To Fake a Celeb Encounter 101? That's very cynical and probably not the case, but it's a pretty common tactic to make something sound more believable. Like all those fake spoilers phrased like, "oh I happened to bump into that Russel G David chap on a train and we got chatting, and he mentioned..." Then it gets questioned and the person winds up in some overinvested detailed argument and it's like, you know what colour pages the various script revisions are on but you don't know RTD's name? Clearly playing the use an intentional mistake to give the impression you're not a fan and therefore not invested and have no reason to lie card. I tend to take the tack that if you're posting publically about shagging you're out for attention whether it's true or not.

See, this is why I love David. He might be a bit of a manho but at least he's not sleazy (no drugs, hookup or cheating rumours).

These girls strike me as professional liggers, I've met the type before, I've pretty much been the type, so I can well believe the story. This was a private room party (there are pictures to prove as much) and I am well aware of how these sorts of parties can progress given enough drink. They go from pleasantly drunk to "OMG IS SHE SUCKING HIS COCK??"-style seedy in the blink of an eye.

I have no idea if it's true, but if I were made to bet, I'd definitely veer towards yes.
