They need to stop with all the Tony/Ziva promotional crap that they're doing. *rolls eyes*

They're acting like the whole "Tiva" angle is all there is to NCIS, when in reality there's so much more to the show. You wouldn't know it by all the promotional stuff that they've been shoving down our throats. It's overkill to the max, and it's making me want to shove a firepoker in my eye. Even the actors don't want Tiva.

Can you save us all the overkill pain heartbreak pseudo-romantic-tension drama, and just give us back the show that we all know and love? plskthksbai.

Too many reasons to count!

The subtext is quickly becoming text... *shifty*

Hey, seeing as you know, well, everything, what epi is it that Gibbs pats Tony's head & says "good boy"? Don't know if it's relevant yet to the fic I'm doing or not, but it might be, but then again it might not, so... Well. Decisive, aren't I?

If it weren't for fanfic, fans would never get what they want!

[spoonyriffic.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh, the "atta boy" pat! *bg* That was in Iced, the ep where they found those bodies in a frozen lake... two boys found them, if I remember correctly.

[citikitti.livejournal.com]

Right, right, right. I remember now. I'm so terrible at remembering epi names with what actually happened. *eyeroll* Seriously, I've been known to forget my own name & age. And once I sort of forgot where I lived & had to check my ID to find out. Mind you, I was falling-down drunk at the time, which may have been the problem. Or not. :D

I've had multiple memory lapses like that! I've forgotten my own cell number before, but that's because I usually can't be bothered to remember it. *SNORT* Seriously, I've only just memorized it about a year ago, and I got the damn phone Christmas of '06. Heh.

I once forgot Robert DeNiro's name.

Well, how often do you call your *own* cell? Practically never, right? So, there you go.

I once forgot my cousin Tom's name while in the middle of intro'ing him to a friend of mine. IT'S 3 LETTERS!

[spoonyriffic.livejournal.com]

Indeed - but I've got the fortune of people asking me what my cell is all the time. Friends, coworkers, potential crap dates... I actually programmed it into my phonebook.

*SNORT* Oh god! Poor you!

I mix up names a lot too - I constantly switch the names of my two best friends, and they get mad at me all the time because of it.

I get my girls mixed up every day. "Em! I mean, Mads! Damn it! I meant Liv! YOU THERE!" My sis-in-law, her mom once went through her two sisters, her brother, the dog and the cat before settling on the right name.

[spoonyriffic.livejournal.com]

"YOU THERE!" is exactly what I say to people if I can't remember their names, complete with the accusatory finger-point.

...at least she remembered all their names! Would have been worse if she had just randomly came up with a name out of the blue!

My father-in-law used to call me Sally. God knows why. I don't even *know* any Sally!

[spoonyriffic.livejournal.com]

A friend of mine called me "Debbie" for about a year before he started calling me by my real name, "Devan." They're kind of close (not really) but still. *rolls eyes*

Or there was that one time when my dad called me Ricky, who's my half-brother. I was like "WTF," because he and I look nothing alike (he takes after dad, and I take after my mom), and he lives all the way in New Jersey.

[citikitti.livejournal.com]

I think Ricky takes the cake. Though how Sally is remotely near to Kathleen is beyond me! Then again, my dad used to call me Spike, but that was after Snoopy's brother, who's always been my favourite Peanuts character...

[spoonyriffic.livejournal.com]

Yeah - even my dad paused and looked a little confused after he called me that. Then he just kind of gave me this weird look and walked away. *snort*

SPIKE! I loved Spike. :D

On the one hand that would be SO nice.

On the other hand, consider who'd be writing it. ;-)

Related note: on the CBS forums, there's this person railing on about how Gibbs could *never* be attracted to a man. Not that she's homophobic or anything. *rolls eyes* The more she talks, the more bigoted she sounds. Tony or McGee maybe, but *never* Gibbs. LOL!!!

[spoonyriffic.livejournal.com]

A valid point! *shudders*

Ugh. It's like "he's a hot-blooded alpha Marine sniper" - he's got to be totally hetero! *facepalm*

No one is completely straight, no matter how much they say they are. And I'm in the camp that believes that Gibbs has at least experimented. Curious mind, and all. :D

Cuz, y'know, them gays ain't *real* men.

*rolls eyes*

Tell it to Alexander the Great.
