Monday stuff

• George Lucas to marshal the Rose Parade. And the 501st is marching! Cool for them, but why do the SW fanboys get all the recognition?

• Thanks for the stocking stuffers!

• I've been doing so much writing lately for holiday exchanges that it feels weird to have time to read. I actually feel guilty for clicking on cuts, heh.

• MDH was convinced that James and Tyler (of The Amazing Race) were a couple, but it doesn't look like they are. I find it hilarious that even my husband slashes people now!

• Has anyone else seen that commercial (for some cell phone company) that is a parody of A Christmas Story? It's so well-done that I thought it was some kind of video manip for a while.

( EDIT: Video under the cut! )

• Mmmm... coffee...

Holy het fic, Batman!

This has to be one of the best pieces of het smut I've read in a long time:

And the slashy Sirius/James subtext is perfect.
