By the sounds of things, I have worn out YET ANOTHER power supply fan. (CAPSLOCK RAGE!) This one was new in ... March? April? Something like that. By "yet another" I mean that I've done this at least twice before, and the other times were not even on this computer setup, it was a totally different box, mobo, etc etc.

wtfbbq!!!!eleventyone

This computer doesn't get run as much as the ones at work, which are on about ... 13/5 (like "24/7"), and which were new. Um. Years ago, mostly. The oldest are... 2002? Something like that? And to my knowledge we have never had to replace any of their fans.

Well, I'll dust it at least, and see if that changes the acoustics, but I'm really hearing a kind of bearing-vibratey noise. fuckity fuck. I don't think we have any more spare fans. Trip to Weird Stuff may be in order. Grr.

*does a little dance* I'm seeing people actually use some of my icons! And off LiveJournal, even!

Crack pairings meme, via [livejournal.com profile] snegurochka_lee:

Make a list of all the characters in your icons. (Although you may have more than one icon of a single character, they only go on the list once.) Alphabetize it. Take the first two people on the list; that's your first pairing. Second two people; second pairing. Etc. Then write your reaction to each pairing (or a snippet of a hypothetical fic featuring each pairing).

I was a little loose with the definition of "character appearing in icon" here. I'm not sure if this was meant to be within fandom, or cross-fandom, too. But hey.


  • Crow T. Robot x Dr. Clayton Forrester


  • Self-love, natch. (♥ Trace Beaulieu)

  • Freakazoid x Fred Weasley x George Weasley


  • (I am not, not, not separating the twins.)

    This is way beyond crack into death by methamphetamine overdose.


  • Haley (thief chick from Order of the Stick - see my icon) x Harry Potter


  • Yes, yes, Harry likes cheeky red-headed girls. Ten points from Gryffindor for a lack of originality, Potter.


  • Hedwig x Hermione Granger


  • Bestiality FTL.


  • James Potter x Joel Robinson


  • Um... Well, Joel does have some pretty messy hair sometimes...


  • Legolas x Lily Potter


  • This is different from Lucius x Lily how?


  • Mike Nelson x Rahnee (Rahnee the She-Wolf, early Wolfrider chieftain, ElfQuest)


  • This... just makes no sense at all.


  • Ron Weasley x Severus Snape


  • *yawn*, that's been done. I'm glad to say I've never... OH WAIT I DID READ ONE oh gods. I had blocked that out of my memory.


  • Sirius Black x Space Ghost


  • *snicker* Now we know what Sirius has been doing on the "other side". Bet you thought it was Snape or Lupin or James. Fooled you!


  • Sybill Trelawney x TV's Frank


  • The most oblivious pairing evar!!
