So, anybody thinking that Cupid and Fate should get together....
No?

Well, if you live anywhere near the United Kingdom, you’ve probably seen the ads. And yeah, “Make Love Happen” is not the most subtlest of lines, so maybe that has something to do with my brain short circuiting to perversion every morning on the train to Liverpool Street. But I think it’s more to do with slash as a way of life.

No, really.

I’m just wondering here if other people on my flist ship random advertising characters and just regular people on the train. Does the concept of reading slash into tv and movies and books spill over into the general experience of culture? The reason I’m using Cupid and Fate here is because they aren’t very attractive. See for yourself! And no way would I be ogling them otherwise, but I just can’t help but wonder: “Are they doing it?”

Now, speaking of ogling the beeb’s attempt of revitalizing BBC3 has lead me to Being Human. And I know it might seem a bit off kilter, a bit weird. (But hey, aren’t we into that sort of thing, anyway!?) However, if that does not tempt you enough…..

A pretty buff young man gets naked in a forest (and when I say buff I mean gorgeous ass) while an indie rockery sharp hip-boned (yes, this is for you Kat) skinny lad makes the moves on a buxom brunette. Now we move to the next morning and buff young man is sleeping in a crevice of rock covered in deer blood and hip-bone lad in having an angst fest in a toilet after draining the blood of said buxom gal. Later on our two heroes (only after the buff one washes himself everyhwere, and now listen carefully dear readers, while naked in the same room as lovely indie rocker and I really mean everywhere) decide to get a house together. And of course they are mistaken *cough* by the agent as a couple. Indie rocker seems very into this while buff young man fumbles and blushes his denials. Now I do think the Lady doth protests too much.

Intrigued yet?
