pezI am, of course, the last person to find out: HBO turns A Song of Ice and Fire into fantasy series fdsfhsfslakfhsk W00T!!!!!!!!!!!! (More on GRRM's own LJ.)
Have a gazillion things to do but don't know where to start.
As a "racial minority" myself, I can't decide if what's happening on Celeb BB is actually "racism" or not. >_> When you dislike someone, everything they say, do, and are, becomes wrong. If Shilpa'd been Scottish they'd make fun of her Scottish accent and say she deep fries all her food and refer to her as "the Scot". A lot of people say things like that, but do the Scottish call us on it? People mimic the way George Bush speaks and make fun of him, is that discrimination enough to be called upon? Hmmmm. Food for thought.
I haven't been able to order the posters in time, sorry. But I'll print A3 of the stuff anyway, because I can!
[edit] also, take extra care when travelling tomorrow, and remember your brolly, just in case.

I watch a little bit every now and then. But now most of the good people are gone and there's nothing to see. BB melts the brain and I hate it. Celeb BB is slightly different, but not much better.
