This made me crack the FUCK up, I won't lie. ;) And yes, tampering with road signs is a very serious thing, but how can you not get the giggles when you're driving down the road and see this:




Yeah. Seriously. And then, to cap it off, when the highway patrol tried to log in to the system to change it back to whatever it was supposed to say, they found they couldn't because the hackers had reset all the passwords! Officials had to go to the manufacturer to gain access, by which time I'm betting a ton of traffic jams had been caused by people slowing down to take pics. Hehehe.

Elsewhere on the web, there was an interesting article in the New York Times about the politics of defriending on Facebook (which they refer to as "unfriending," but I personally have always preferred the former term). Apparently Burger King offered a promotion where if a person removed ten of their Facebook friends, they'd get a free sandwich, after which point BK would send the spurned friends a message saying something to the effect of, "LULZ, YOU'VE JUST BEEN DUMPED FOR A SANDWICH!!!" They had to eventually end the promotion because it turned out to be a violation of Facebook's terms of service, though. I don't frequent Facebook, as most of you probably know, but I don't think I'd go around removing people just to get a free burger. No worries, guys, y'all are safe. ;)

I will in all probability be posting fic tomorrow, but in the meantime I wanted to point my SW- and A/O-inclined friends to this lovely little Anakin/Obi-Wan vignette by [info]emavalexis. Beautiful writing, great characterization, and it is HAWT. Mmmmmm. And for the BSG crowd, there's a delightful Adama/Roslin crack!fic by the name of "Stranger Than Fiction" which I had a good giggle over earlier today. It's written by [info]mondavis and proceeds on the premise that everyone on Galactica starts shipping A/R when prompted by a fic written by an anonymous author, and eventually even Bill and Laura read it and end up shipping themselves! *grins* Well worth a look-see, if you haven't run across it already. And if you have, hey, read it again!

Aaaand I think that's about it. G'night, f-list!

So, remember those holiday gifts I promised y'all! *ahem* Well ...

This was basically the Christmas Day of Porn, heh. HI MY NAME IS LIZ AND I AM COMPLETELY UNASHAMED OF WRITING PORN WHILE SITTING LIKE A FOOT AWAY FROM TWO OF MY UNCLES. Um. Anyway. As the cut tags imply, this post has something for almost everyone, and what it doesn't contain will be coming tomorrow. All fics are posted at [info]jedionpaper and linked below with titles, author's notes, dedications etc. Some of them represent requests filled, some are just surprises. Do enjoy, and tell me what you think!

If you ship Adama/Roslin, click here! )

If you ship Lee/Kara, click here! )

If you ship Sam/Kara, click here! )

If you ship Obi-Wan/Padmé, click here! )

Those of you who ship Anakin/Padmé and/or Anakin/Obi-Wan, don't despair! Your fics will be posted tomorrow, the second they come back from my beta. And Obi-Wan/Padmé fans who aren't following TIS also need not worry, as I've got a delicious wall!porn fic for you all which is also currently at the beta. The aforementioned fics, along with my offerings at [info]jedi_mistletoe both this year and last year, will all be going up tomorrow.

Whew! *Liz's muse collapses in exhaustion*
