girlanachronism: an animated list of reason why I no longer have an appropriate icon (Default)

I like to know if I'm lying to save the skin of a tosser or a moron.


I really, really love The Thick of It

Really love it.

I just watched the first two seasons and...

Wow.

(My brother told me to lay off it just before Christmas guests came, because apparently I swear 150% more in the hour following any exposure to that show)

Is there fic for this, somewhere? I mean, there has to be. Seriously. Not least because Malcolm is a crazy electric storm of sexual tension, but because Olly is such an adorable little bastard ("Shagging your way to the top?" "I'm not Scottish, I've got to get there somehow.") and the pinning against walls I mean come on

... and even better, the movie is coming soon and has Tom Hollander in it. I adore Tom Hollander.

SOMEONE ELSE TO TALK TO ABOUT THIS SHOW! *grabs*

The swearing is glorious, no? I want to say 'fuckity bye' after every phone call and put 'come the fuck in or fuck the fuck off' on the office door at work. =D

There is fic over at [livejournal.com profile] the_thickofit but not as much as there clearly should be. THE PINNING. OH SWEET MERCY THE PINNING.

You're going to love the movie bb. =D

CLINGS TO YOUUUUU

It's a beautiful, beautiful thing. And so is Malcolm, I mean, goddamn, the man can appear out of nowhere in a building made of glass COS HE'S A BLOODY SHAPESHIFTER :D

I am opening that comm in another tab right now.

Awww, you're right, not much there, and it's all Malcolm/Jamie-or-Nicola.

Nevermind. I'm sure with you to talk to I won't be short of slashtastic ridiculousness.

Hmmm. I need an icon. I'm torn between 'come the fuck in or fuck the fuck off', 'he's a lover, not a fighter' and 'NOMFP. Not My Fucking Problem. I quite like that. Did you like that? I'll use that quite a lot today.' Or maybe if I could be bothered a gif of the glorious "I think I'll have a bit of a shout now"

There's a pretty excellent Thick of It/TW: Children of Earth fic knocking about.

I need that in my life! Link? Except anything related to COE still makes me sniffle. I am such a wuss.

I'll have a look.

And it features Malcolm as Frobisher's brother, telling Jack to fuck right off and he'll sort everything out. So it might cheer you up.

God I love this show and the movie too. I want to be Malcolm Tucker. I've got the accent, just need to work on the rage. And the sexy.

Well one out of three ain't bad? And personally I think you got the sexy down, I can tell by the way you type :D So, two out of three, definitely ain't bad!

You might need a swearing consultant, though.
