TV Ignorance!
Okay, so I usually avoid memes that aren't fic-based, but I just had to give the following one a whirl. Taken from
oneangrykate.
the TV IGNORANCE MEME.
I will tell you what your favorite shows are about, based solely on what I have gathered from my flist...
American Idol: People singing and getting voted off by viewers. Or by judges. And there's a guy called Simon something involved, so it's kinda like a musical of Simon Says.
Avatar Aang: An avatar called Aang? Who has a blue swirly thing on his forehead. And people using elemental attacks to fight each other. Some girl dying, too?
Bleach: Shinigami! Someone called Gin. Someone else called Rukia. Ducks in a bathtub, maybe? And a guy who can control plants and is called Hakkai or something because he's part-demon, but I know that bit from an RP.
Battlestar Galatica: Uh. Space? Probably a battleship. And people. Fighting. In Space.
Death Note: Light and L and Raito and mind games. And a lack of sex or slash but people put that in anyway. And handcuffs. And a notebook that kills you if your name gets written down into it. And Light being a serial killer, or possibly that's L. And I think that Raito and Light are the same person, or is that Raito and L?
Dexter: A serial killer who kills other killers because that helps keep his destructive urges on the side of light and sugar cookies.
Doctor Who: A time-travelling alien guy? And a companion called Jack and another called Rose. And a ship called the TARDIS and Daleks which are a race of killer aliens. Except one Emo Dalek that's the last one left. Oh, and the doctor keeps dying and coming back in new reincarnations.
Heroes: People with superpowers that fight crime? There's a girl called Claire that's a cheerleader on the team and gets cut open during one episode!
Supernatural: Dean and John (or is that Sean?) Wincester having incestuous sex. Or being brothers in a very gay way. I swear that's what my flist says!
Veronica Mars: A chick who's a detective and schoolgirl at once. Like Nancy Drew, but more hardcore. And some guy called Logan that's snarky. The chick's blonde. And British, I think. Or the thing's set in Britain. One of the two.
If I missed a fandom you've talked about in your journal, comment and I'll try to explain it unless I'm also into it. XD

kay, well, there's hardcore to which kids dance like they're fighting invisible ninjas and there's metalcore which isn't the same as nu-metal and there's pop punk which is like punk lite so that you can shout along with it, and pop which is all happy and fizzy. And there's R&B which is basically jazz with lyrics and hip-hop which is like metal only black and there's funk which is basically people going crazy with electric-love. And Yellowcard tried to do a Wall of Death and failed because they're like Hilary Duff, who's what Britney Spears used to be.
And oh, yeah, there's alt-rock as well which is basically an excuse for people to act pretensious because they like Coldplay and Radiohead. And there's also Europop which is the European version of pop meaning it has less sugar and fizz than American pop does. Imagine Eurotrash singing while drunk and you've got the idea. Classics and oldies are songs from the 80's and before, but real classical music is Beethoven and stuff that doesn't have any lyrics but isn't jazz. Though jazz sometimes has lyrics, but then it's hard to tell apart from R&B. Soul is the old-fashioned version of R&B and it involves really big hair, kind of like metal does, except metal has shredding riffs and soul has weird dancing. J-Rock and J-Pop are basically excuses for boys to look pretty and do gay stuff with each other on stage, and both J-Rock and J-Pop sound like the exact same genre. If J-Jazz existed, it'd probably sound the same as well.
And people make remixes if the original songs suck. But if the original songs don't suck too badly, they do covers of it instead which basically means a band or singer redoes someone else's song because they used to sing lots of karaoke when they were little.
Tada! Everything I ever learnt about the music scene via my flist and MSN. XD

Same person, just different way of transliterating his name.
L is the guy trying to stop Kira
, but they're really having mad sex off camera. ;)no subject
Thanks for the explanation.
And hah, yeah, should have tossed in something about L being made of gingerbread.no subject
Hehe, but that's not entirely kosher...or canon. Death by ingestion by hungry college student doesn't have the same ring.no subject
*snickers* Wait, does that mean that L DOES die somehow in canon?(no subject)
Amused, I am.
American Idol - HA HA. Nice one. Amusing.
Avatar Aang - Just Avatar :P Blue Arrow, not swirly. So far, one girl has died? yeah, just one... >_> So far. XD
Bleach - I thought Hakkai was from Saiyuki? XDD Or... maybe his name is something different? XDDD *Has only seen, what, 10 episodes?*
Death Note - Someone already said the part I wasn't positive on, but figured... I still wanna know about the handcuffs... I see em everywhere. My fault for still not getting into the series yet.
Dexter - Is there something about a robot, because that's all that strikes my attention xD
Doctor Who - I know Rose.... .... ... Oh wait, Dalek is the robot? Oh, I donno anything -.-
Heroes - XDDD I love this show T_T And... not... exactly fighting crime... yet... well, there is one, but he's a cop xD
Supernatural: ... .... xDDDDD I donno if I've wanted to see this *snickers*
Veronica Mars - Oh? XDD
Y'know..... Part of me wishes I didn't know some of these to see what my opinion would be based off of just this xDDD
Now... a fandom I talk about that you either didn't say or not into? Uh...
....
....
InuYasha?
Yu Yu Hakusho?
...don't talk about those the way I used to, though xDDDD
Re: Amused, I am.
Well, DUH. You're on my flist so you're one of the people who talks about the shows that I tried to explain :P
American Idol has been around for ages, so I know more about it than the others. Bleach, oops. I thought it was Bleach but maybe it's Saiyuki? XD
Death Note, there's a little more explanation below.
Dexter, NOOOOOO! That's Dexter's Labatory you're thinking of! ...I think anyway. If anything, this list proved I don't really know my TV shows. XD
Heroes actually sounds pretty cool but OH! I just remembered that I also know that they retconned a gay character on it. Hah. I should have added that to the meme. *considers editing it in*
Supernatural, apparently SAM is Dean's brother and John is their father. And they aren't twins like I thought. Oops.
VM, nobody's British. Double oops.
And oh, okay!
InuYasha is about a dog demon and a girl called Kikiyo or something that has nothing to do with Shino from Naruto's bugs. He wears red, has white hair and yellow ears, and probably doesn't go into heat but I'm not sure about the last bit.
Yu Yu Hakusho has some guy with spiky black hair like a chibi from DBZ. And a guy called Hakai or something that Dani likes a lot, but not as much as she liked Bakura. I think it's the H-guy with the black hair, H standing for a name that isn't Hentai.
Re: Amused, I am.
LMFAO Yes... I just hope I'm not the ONLY one that talks about some of those xDDD
American Idol has been around for ages, so I know more about it than the others. Bleach, oops. I thought it was Bleach but maybe it's Saiyuki? XD
yeah with Canadian Idol and every other Idol...Country....Everything out there xD And... Uh... I donno? XDD I haven't seen enough of Saiyuki and haven't seen it in over 2 years? XD
Dexter, NOOOOOO! That's Dexter's Labatory you're thinking of! ...I think anyway. If anything, this list proved I don't really know my TV shows. XD
...you're probably right? XDD I wasn't a fan of Dexter's Labatory so maybe xDDD *snickers* And goes to show that I donno half of em?
Heroes actually sounds pretty cool but OH! I just remembered that I also know that they retconned a gay character on it. Hah. I should have added that to the meme. *considers editing it in*
To me it's very awesome. Ooooh the ... I forget his name -.-;; But, I really liked him!

@____@ Oh? xDDD Learning more, ne? XDDDDD

XD Half demon... but yes, dog... and Kikyou... yes.... and... xDDDD Love the add in of Shino *HA HA* ... he has white ears, too :P Or white-silver... xDDDDD oh gods... heat.... .... Well... I guess... NEVER MIND.
Yu Yu Hakusho has some guy with spiky black hair like a chibi from DBZ. And a guy called Hakai or something that Dani likes a lot, but not as much as she liked Bakura. I think it's the H-guy with the black hair, H standing for a name that isn't Hentai.
XDDDDDD HIEI. Yes. *COUGH* Oh jeez. HA HA. xDDD Poor poor ... ... I tried to type Hiei ... and then Hentai and came up with "hienatai" or something -.-;;; OI.
....
I FORGOT OUR WORD! SCHOI... PSYCHOI?
SPAYCHOI!
Nope! WR talks about Bleach and Avatar: The Last Airbender as well (I can't believe that I even got the name wrong), and Liz talks about American Idol.
I still have no clue about the Saiyuki thing but you're probably right. ^_~
And I liked Dexter's Lab, actually, but yeah, you definitely watch more TV than I do!
HAH! I was mostly right about InuYasha, hahahaha. XD Though, um, the heat thing came from fanfic complaints on FW. XD
YES! Hiei! Exactly! That's the boy. *was right*
SPAYCHOI COMMANDS YOU TO LOVE IT!
Re: SPAYCHOI!

Raito = Light
L = Love
Handcuffs! Yes. :D Light and L get handcuffed together for many a chapter, making slash lovers like me squee in eternal happiness. Mind games sums it up pretty perfectly. XD
Unfortunately, they don't have sex in the actual thing. They DID fight a lot, though, which makes for brilliant hate!sex in fic. The notebook is the Death Note. Yep, Light's the serial killer who has a bit of a god complex; thinks of himself as a sort of purifyer. He starts by killing criminals but gets increasingly psychotic, and L is the detective who is trying to find Kira (<-- Light's alias, a play on 'Killer').
no subject
...Really? XDD I think you're kidding on the Love bit but not totally sure.
And yes! I know the handcuff bit because someone was talking about how fangirls keep slashing them because of the handcuffs. Clearly, they were talking about People Like You. Baaaaad.
And ahhh. Okay. The notebook being the Death Note makes sense. Should have thought of that. And I knew that Light's alias was Kira! I just wasn't sure about the Raito bit. And I knew that Light was the serial killer too, so hey, at least I got some of it right. More than I did for other fandoms, anyway. XD

*has been stuck on time to watch the last two eps of FMA for days*
And I nearly did Mai Hime because someone was talking about it then I remembered that ages ago, I'd started watching it when you linked me to a whole bunch of the eps. ♥ Then I moved houses and comps and lost everything that I'd d/led, boo.
no subject
I know longer know you.
no subject
Please don't defriend me over this! PLEASE! *grovels* I mean, hey, you don't love me for my knowledge of Avatar anyway! XD
Besides, you usually just call it Avatar in your posts, not the full name. Same with Dani! So why should I know the full name?no subject

Supernatural: Well, there are those pesky plots about hunting and killing supernatural critters, but they're not really important. John, Dean AND Sam are having incestuous sex, but Dean and Sam are the brothers and John is the dear departed daddy.
no subject
And Doctor Who's Jack has his own TV show, what? I didn't know that. XD
HAH! Yeah, someone already told me that Sam is the brother. And that no, the brothers aren't twins as I thought. *hides!*
no subject
Yep. Jack has a show called Torchwood-- there was all sorts of set up in the second season of the new Who stuff. It's gorgeous, cheesy, and there's canon boytouching. (And aliens n' stuff.)
Nope! But they look like brothers (http://winchester-journals.net/fun/caption/caption01.jpg), which is more than you can say for a lot of TV siblings. (Apparently the actors grew up about four hours away from each other in Texas. XD)
