crankygrrl, and yes, I have done variations on this meme before, but much like MASH when we were prepubescent and Truth or Dare, discussing who you'd sleep with given the right circumstances (those being just as mythical as 12 and 13 year old girl crushes so therefore justifiable) never gets old :
If you'd shag them put the name in bold.
If you'd shag them after a few drinks put the name in italics.
If you wouldn't shag or don't know who they are, leave as is.
If you wouldn't shag them at gunpoint, cross the name out.
Add one or more character names and/or fandoms of your own. Once the list gets long enough to be unwieldy (use your judgment) start removing one name for every name you add.
Buffy Summers
Willow Rosenberg
Xander Harris
Rupert Giles - Smart, English, geeky, snarktastic, guitar playing, former bad boy. I love me some Giles.
Cordelia Chase - post High School and pre turning into scary happy Jonestown cult Cordelia
Joyce Summers
Spike - before he was chipped and way before the Buffy bot
Darla
Drusilla
Daniel "Oz" Osbourne
Dude, I still think of most of those characters as high school students. That's just freaky. No sex with people not old enough to vote or rent cars.
Angel - Oh shut up. Big and dumb has it's uses, and he's broody enough to have something he wants to prove.
Allen Francis Doyle
Wesley Wyndam-Pryce -too bony
Charles Gunn - I like his shiny head.
Lorne
Fred Burkle - too bony
Connor - oh double the shutting up. I know he's underage, but it's that feral hair. Gets me every time.
Illyria - but we wouldn't go for sushi afterwards
Lindsey MacDonald - cute, but for too short
Lilah Morgan - again with the bony
Mal Reynolds - MMMM. But only when he's cranky.
Zoë Warren - I adore Zoe, but she doesn't turn me on.
Hoban "Wash" Washburn - because he'd make me laugh.
Inara Serra - just because I don't think they did justice to her conceptually doesn't mean I don't want to see what they teach 'em at companion school and she is inhumanly beautiful
Jayne Cobb - again with the shutting up, but it'd be a quicky.
Kaylee Frye
Simon Tam
River Tam
Shepherd Book
Jack O'Neill - yeah, yeah, I don't watch SG-1, blah, blah, blah. But man has RDA aged well.
Daniel Jackson - snort, only if he wouldn't mind when I said, "Well, you look so much like...."
Samantha Carter
Teal'c
George Hammond
Janet Fraiser
Jonas Quinn Jacob Carter/Selmak - Just NO, okay?
Elizabeth Weir
John Sheppard - so very cute, and yes, again, I don't watch SGA, but I like the snark.
Rodney McKay
Teyla Emmagan
Gil Grissom - sigh. Yes, this does vaguely embarass me. It's the geek factor.
Catherine Willows
Warrick Brown - Clearly this doesn't need an explanation.
Nick Stokes
Sara Sidle
Greg Sanders - Geek factor, plus he'd let me use his hair gel in the morning.
Al Robbins
Jim Brass
Gregory House
Lisa Cuddy
Eric Foreman
James Wilson
Allison Cameron
Edward Vogler
I have no idea who any of those people are
Jed Bartlet
Abigail Bartlet
Leo McGarry - agreeing with Kath, too old, but still, yeah
Toby Ziegler - I love Toby. I'd marry Toby.
Josh Lyman - Sigh, I don't see Josh as being good in bed. He's too neurotic and too easily distracted, unless you give him a good problem to solve.
C.J. Cregg - martinis yes, sex no.
Sam Seaborn - Sam, I believe, would be easily led.
Charlie Young
Donna Moss
Will Bailey
Ainsley Hayes
Danny Concannon - I love Danny, and he's smart and kind of funny looking and thus, has serious attentiveness potential.
Lord John Marbury - he could just talk. And talk and talk.
Benton Fraser
Ray Vecchio
Ray Kowalski
Lt. Harding Welsh
Francesca Vecchio
Elaine Besbriss
Robert Fraser
James T. Kirk - I have no willpower and he's a smooth talker.
Spock - it's the ears
Leonard McCoy
Montgomery "Scotty" Scott
Pavel Chekov
Hikaru Sulu
Lt. Uhura
Christine Chapel
Janice Rand
Jean-Luc Picard - Again with the talking
William T. Riker
Geordi LaForge
Tasha Yar
Worf
Beverly Crusher
Deanna Troi
Data
Wesley Crusher
Guinan
William "Husker" Adama
Laura Roslin
Kara "Starbuck" Thrace - after many drinks, and assuming we could find an interested third party with the appropriate appendages.
Lee "Apollo" Adama
Gaius Baltar - I know he's sleazy and slimy, but man the charisma
Number Six - because then we'd have a final answer on whether Cylons use silicon in their cleavage
Sharon "Boomer" Valerii
Saul Tigh
Tyrol
Karl "Helo" Agathon - in a heatbeat. Tall, too pretty for his own good, not all that smart.
Dualla
Billy Keikeya
Tom Zarek
Luke Skywalker - whiny. So very, very whiny.
Han Solo - DUDE.
Princess Leia
Chebacca
Lando Calrissian - Ah, c'mon. He's got his own city!
C-3P0
R2-D2
Yoda
Darth Vader
Anakin Skywalker
Obi-Wan Kenobi - MMM. Even with the ugly wardrobe and his penchant for phallic symbols.
Padme Amidala
Mace Windu
Yoda (slightly younger)
Bail Organa
Jar-Jar Binks
Qui-Gon Jin - yes, yes. Very much yes.
John Crichton - Do we really need me to list the reasons I'd sleep with John Crichton. Big, solid, beautiful, attentive, smart, oral fixation, under sexed, sense of humor. far too much time spent with his right hand.
Aeryn Sun - it'd be worth the criticism:) And I bet I'd learn something.
D'Argo - Don't you want to know what else he can do with that tongue?
Zhaan - too touchy feely. I'd spend the whole time giggling, not in a good way, in the nervous way.
Chiana - but I'd lock my purse in the safe first.
Rygel - I love the little slug, but no. Very much no.
Crais - it'd only take one drink:)
Scorpius
Grayza
Pilot - yes, he looks like a lobster. But all of those arms and the multitasking.
Stark - way too easily distracted and the mask looks like it'd be chilly.
There really aren't very many not a chance in hells here. That does not speak well of me:)
This article, via Media Bistro, We Don't Need No Regulation on the self-regulating of bloggers is interesting in that it mirrors much of the same self-regulation that goes on through LJ related fandom, or at least I think it does.
Kath is annoyed with BSG, and thus reluctant to speculate further on her article, but I would like to talk about the idea that BSG is so succesful as Scifi because it isn't science fiction. I need to formulate some actual, concrete examples, though.
