Questions, I've got questions

So whose idea was it to chat up the Supernatural season premiere on Twitter by making #luciferiscoming a trending topic? Was that some kind of consensus alternative when nothing on the first slate of #deaniscrying, #samisshirtless, #brothersarehugging, #castielismycopilot, and #ofcoursebobbyisstillgrumpy got a majority of votes? Or is there some kind of fan campaign to market the show to Satanists?

And hey, while I'm asking -- you know that thing where someone makes an LJ post, and then one or more people comment, "This."? Is that just an LJ/fandom/et al. thing, or does it happen on other kinds of blogs? When did it start -- and more importantly, where will it end?

And another thing! The whole "Signal Boost" in subject lines when you're linking to something -- where did that come from? Is it a Firefly thing? Just how many of my pet peeves can I blame on Joss Whedon?

Hey, I never staked a claim to legitimacy for myself or for my absurd pet peeves. *g*

*impertinent lick, in passing*

(um. I might have impersonated kitten!Rodney a little too long this week.)

Kitten!Rodney? Shouldn't that be a scratch?

(was this an all-kitten!AU scenario? Just trying to imagine kitten!Todd...)

Kitten!Rodney doesn't /only/ scratch! The fun of making them kitten is to give them all a baseline of furry adorableness / a repertoire of affectionate+playful moves. So.

It's a mostly kitten!team AU; iirc Sam Carter owns/rescues them. It's... an excuse to have kitten John/Rodney rolling around licking and pawing at each other. *hangs head* There wasn't any Todd yet! It's not very plotty.

But I'll consult my co-player and ask what she thinks about the Wraith in there. :D

You know, I probably would have guessed that part. *g*

Unless a sudden twist reveals that kitten!John is actually robot!kitten!John or something....
