30 Day Shipping Meme: Day 10 - Favorite TV pairing & Favorite book pairing

Day 12: What is your favorite television pairing?
Corey Matthews and Topanga Lawerence (Boy Meets World)




I’m choosing them mainly because I have many warm, fuzzy, nostalgic memories of watching their relationship grow from elementary school crush to married couple. I grew up watching this relationship develop and watching this show still makes me smile even though I fully realize how corny it is.

And I still think it’s wicked cool that Corey’s dimwit older brother Eric grew up to be Batman!



Day 13: What is your favorite book pairing?
Amy and Laurie (Little Women)



Yeah, I know it's a movie cover. But it's the best picture of Amy and Laurie I could find. :P

I picked Amy and Laurie solely because the author hooked them up to as a way to say “FUCK OFF!!”  to all the annoying fans who kept sending her letters demanding she pair off Laurie and Jo. Who knew obnoxious shippers existed back in the 1800s?
To be honest, I was a bit disappointed when Jo and Laurie didn’t hook up the first time I read the book. But the story about Louisa May Alcott and her annoying shipper fans made me laugh so much that it made me feel better about it.

Public Service Announcement: Don't be like Mister Bluetooth

If any of you guys use Bluetooth headsets, for the love of God PLEASE don't just wander around in public talking into thin air like an idiot. When you do, stuff like this happens...



...Mister Bluetooth still has no idea how close he came to getting punched in the crotch that day. Don't be like Mister Bluetooth. When walking into a place of business, don't expect the clerks to magically know that you're on the phone and not a dangerous schizophrenic and/or pervert.

Remember, only you can prevent getting punched in the crotch by an offended wage slave.
