IT'S VERY ODD

Having that feeling of TURCHWAD SQUEEE back, without actually having the desire to watch any new Torchwood. Okay, so I am, apparently, an easily manipulated fangirl. I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER since House of the Dead, it's downright weird. But, obviously, I'm still not watching Miracle Day because I didn't much like it. (That IS the only reason, by the way, I could claim I'm doing it because I ABHOR RTD and EVERYTHING HE STANDS FOR and I REFUSE TO GIVE HIM THE SATISFACTION OMG, but the truth of the matter is, that if MD had been Olde Torchwood and they'd suddenly found a pterodactyl and made themselves a new underground ~~volcano lair~~ base and embossed a different and even more ostentatious car, I'd have watched it big time, Ianto or no Ianto. But it's not, it's that po-faced CoE NuTorchwood and I didn't like it the first time around.)

So, anyway, I'm doing screencaos at the mo, but for some reason I am also feeling a mite nostalgic and wistful and shit like that, so here's more pictures.

That there is, I believe, the first picture I ever posted on this here journal of Ianto Jones. I believe I posted it to illustrate some sort of point I was attempting to make about Gareth David-Lloyd's mouth and how enthralled I was by it.

Random choice from the archives:

I post this not because of Ianto's hilarious fayce in this picture, but because it contains a slice of Tosh's boob. Since I've started screencapping Series 2, I've become kind of enchanted by them. They're really, really round. You should have totally hit that, Harper. Idiot. I also must add that while watching S2, depite the Jack/Ianto kissings and such, I kind of secretly totally shipped Ianto/Tosh. I didn't mention it much because shipping a guy and a chick wasn't really the done thing in TW fandom, ever. But I can come out now, I totally thought Ianto should have dumped Jack's sorry arse for Tosh's fabulously perky tits.

My final thought:

THERE WAS NEVER ENOUGH DIRTYBADWRONG SERIAL KILLER IANTO FANFICTION IN THIS FANDOM. I STILL WANT IT, GODDAMMIT.

You may now return to your regularly scheduled whatever.

Huh.

I went to post a comment somewhere and found I'd been banned from someone's journal. I've never been banned from anyone's journal before, and I quite like the person in question and don't recall ever having had a disagreement with them of any kind. Random defriendings by people who I thought were my actual friends I can deal with, but banning? Wow. Ouch.

Speaking of which, this is kind of where I am at the moment:

There's not a lot of joy for me left in Whovian fandom. I'll probably post something later about how much I hated Waters of Mars. I have no desire to watch anything RTD has produced or DT stars in, and I am only just managing to hold on to a scrap of enthusiasm for when Moffat and Smith come in. I hate Russell, I hate everything he's ever written, I think he's awful. His insistence on bringing all this emotional manpain and trauma into these shows that used to just be a joyful experience for me and, in the case of Who, for my kids, has ruined my fannish experience. I want the last three years of my life back, I wish I'd never started watching Torchwood, I wish I'd stopped watching Who. I don't need television that pisses me off and makes me sad, that's not what I watch television for. Fuck you Russell, I hope LA chews you up and spits you out and fucks you in the ass with a pointy stick.

Ianto did make me happy for quite a few years, which is why I'm working on a last epic picspam of my favourite teaboy doing shit. I hope to have it done in a week or two.

I'm also working on something of a personal project celebrating Torchwood Series One and Two, which I hope to tell you more about in the coming weeks. Or maybe I'll just abandon it.

I was hoping to do a Christmas push on the Ianto Jones Wants a Pony campaign, but the Lluest Horse and Pony Trust's continued inability to update me is starting to annoy me a bit, so maybe I'll leave it. After Christmas, I'm done promoting it because I think I've done enough. I'll leave it up, of course.

Any takers for ninja_teaboy may give me shout here or in PM. I'm putting it up for adoption per January 1st. If there's no-one interested, I'll close it down.

Oh, in case you were wondering, no. If there is a new series of Torchwood, I won't be watching it, as I don't really like Gwen, or Jack. I liked Tosh and Ianto and I quite enjoyed disliking Owen. I liked Ianto, I liked Tosh, I liked the Hub, the embossed SUV, the pteranodon, the old ladies, the poodles, the victorian lesbianism, the cyberbikinis and that stupid fucking invisible lift. In fact, I loved all those things. Apparently I loved those things far too much. Those things are all gone, so there's nothing for me to come back to. Not that there will be a new series.

It's been really fun, people, but if you've friended me for Torchwood content, please, feel free to defriend me in the coming weeks, I won't be offended. I am completely spent. Done. Thanks, Rusty.

Torchwood Happy Dance

Via

qthewetsprocket on my f-list, I bring you my first ever linkage to a FANVID. I never thought I'd see the day I linked to A FUCKING FANVID, but there you go.

volitaire creates a fitting ode to the drama and emo depths of Adam, by editing the episode down to a mere four minutes and setting it to Hanson's Mmmbop.

Sometimes this fandom makes me smile way too much. Give me more pop/emo Torchwood vid crossovers NOW! I'm thinking something along the lines of Cyberwoman and Britney's Oops, I did it again? Something like that.
