BWAHAHHAHA

GUYS, GUYS. I HAVE JUST BEEN CHALLENGED.

Apparently all I write is crack. They want something else.

Like, oh, I don't know, what's the opposite of Crack? Angst? Can I do that? Can I?

*hysterical laughter*

To be fair, I have written an oddly high amount of crack for SH. I blame RDJ and his rubber ducky antics.

SH invites crack by dint of being Victorian; first bunch of sci-fi writers get going, steampunk, etc. And zombies are just BETTER in cravats. Also, Basil Rathbone's 'Sherlock Holmes and the Spider Woman', which I have not seen but wish too. It cracks itself

Fuck man, look at the original canon. The Crooked man, anyone? MONKEY GLANDS.


Plus they were all repressed and clothing table legs and shit and also running S&M parties and getting caught with champagne bottles up their backsides. It's just like the Tories in the 80's

And the Red-Headed League. WHAT. WHAT, ACD. I love his disturbed brain.

Hee! One of my modules this year is victorian literature, I should totally bring that comparison into my essay....WAIT I'm writing an essay about science in victorian literature, TOTALLY COMPARING IT TO CREATIONISTS.

YES. THIS TOO.

I luuuuuurrrrrrve Ghost Light. The only explanation for it is that they were smoking weed in rizlas made of pages from lovecraft books

I still love the inference that Ace and Gwendoline were at it hammer and tongs.
