Random things of joy

iTunes! In Australia! Finally! It's how I was meant to buy music. Apple didn't reach an agreement with Sony BMG, so some artists are missing, but I think I'll live. Conversations with [livejournal.com profile] lilacsigil are now all about that song, you know, that we liked years ago, but we didn't buy, because the album was crappy. I wish I could get the polka version of the LOTR soundtrack that's on this video: "They're Taking the Hobbits to Isengard!" I would play it all day, and dance.

She Hulk volume one TPB! Seriously, laugh-out-loud funny. I am in love with snarky Jarvis, and smug Dr Strange.
Just reading through a few reviews, it seems that people who are dedicated fans are unhappy with Dan Slott's interpretation. I really don't get why fandom hates the rebirth of an established character. Dr Who fans hate the newest thing until it becomes the old thing, and there's a new new thing to hate on. And apparently people didn't like Jen's big, green, curvy bum, but I think that's part of the appeal.

I commented in [livejournal.com profile] minisinoo's journal that it's hard to get the hang of fandom language, so it's good to find a community like [livejournal.com profile] fanspeak_help to explain stuff, like ZOMG, and kthnxbi.
