What's your main obsession?
 
So what are your main obsessions? describe them :)

My main obsession is staying healthy

Doctor Who

Narrative structures (particularly in gaming and tv shows)

The nexus points of gender and class, particularly, but not exclusively in historical terms.

The Doctor and his relationship to the assistants, discuss.
I think they pushed the Doctor/assistant thing too far in the 'New series' :greenface.

For me:
Paintball, even if I hardly get the chance to actually play, I still read 3 or 4 forums and blogs about, each day.

Rome: Total war (computer game), cause theres just always just one more Barbarian Horde that needs crushing under the Roman Sandal

What about the nexus points of gender and class in gaming & tv show narratives?


I see "slamming trolls" hasn't made anyone's list yet.

.

uh huh..that too...didn't want to sound repetetive. They all mix and mingle. One of these days I'll pull out the article I wrote for a campus computing magazine about gamer chicks, like me:P I could very happily bore you with the cultural progressions in the Doctor's assistants from the 1960s original right through to the last special. I could likewise go on for some time about gender constructions in Battlestar Galactica *deadpan* But I really don't think anybody wants to see that :P

Well I just started watching my first Dr. Who after hearing about it for years... the Christopher Eccleston/Billie Piper pairing.

I think I'm obsessed with my work.

I've got my own business, and it really is hard not to let it consume you 24/7.

Outside of that, I dunno, the Internet maybe.

Makes me wonder, would the Roman empire have survived if they wore Jackboots instead of sandals? I mean, can you really stomp heads and grind faces that well in birkenstocks?

My obsession appears to be making bizzare, nerdy, and occcasionally funny observations.
