SQUIRREL  
Yesterday goldy_dollar and I saw "Up". It was very cute and I cried, which was probably a positive step towards convincing Frances I am not a Cylon. The talking dogs were the best part but I accept that because talking dogs are AWESOME. Whatever, princess movies, 101 Dalmatians ftw. I also took the last possible bus home and during it some creepy drunk old man came on to me. Hurrah! Unfortunately for him he will have to join the queue of creepy old men who want some of this.

I also stole from Frances "The Story of Martha" (self-explanatory) and "Winner Takes All" (Nine and Rose). It occurs to me that the Doctor Who books are kind of very hilarious but only a truly deranged branch of us are brave enough to read them, so I might do some summary/review things for lulz. And for people like lacunaz who want to see Gandhi in the TARDIS but not for the price of $14.50. Also, I just really really like summarising things. I don't know, I have strange passions.

I think that's why I find it so especially amusing, because I've been using it for ages and I was one of the few who actually liked him (and JE) from the second it aired, rather than after a few months of therapy, and in general I'm like, psychoticlly defensive of him, and so to have it turn out that the phrase is secret code for "STUPID CLONE" just really amuses me, I dunno.

I did accept him instantly. I actually thought it was the best thing ever. My reaction post had the word 'squee' an awful lot. My brother, who isn't even a DW fan, never mind a shipper, pointed out Ten's angst before I'd calmed down from the squee enough to consider it...

But I don't think I noticed people calling him Handy aside from haters until fairly recently so I kind of hate it.
Love fandom's issues.
