Forget Me Not

brainofckOK. I refuse to use the now-trendy expression "Made of win."
Got that? I "heart" this expression "liek woah," but I WILL NOT use it, in any context, ever.
That said, I just spent a couple of hours I SO do not have for online activity reading Forget Me Not by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

McShep. Amnesia. Prison. Stupid, stupid aliens.
This is the good stuff, y'all. And this is a level of writing to which I aspire. Just good, tight and well constructed.
Really, really good.
And now I am TOTALLY irked that I do not have a McShep icon for this journal. I suppose I should be happy, because when I started this thing I only had three icons, but now, I am greedy, and feel that at a minimum there should be 15. That was the number I thought when they upped it to 6. So I particularly want to kick the stupid sponsored accounts, because that's where my 15 went, damn them and their sponsorship and not just handing out free stuff to people at great expense to themselves.
And don't YOU PEOPLE start getting any ideas. Not that you would. Just let a person rant in peace. Dammit. I'm putting Teal'c on this one.
UPDATE: You know, the thought occurs that I often say, "Everybody needs a secretary." 'Cause you know, professional secretary here. I know the value of good clerical staff. But really, what everybody needs, possibly more than a secretary, is a First Prime.
No. In keeping with the selfishness theme of this post, I declare that in fact, everybody else can have secretaries. I, and I alone, get a First Prime. Perhaps not Teal'c himself, but someone equally imposing, who can hulk around whenever anybody is pissing me off. Who will deferentially fetch me things when no enforcing is needed, and who will charm the children with his inscrutable alien ways when I need a break.
Yup. That's right. I'm putting "First Prime" right up there with "Robot Double" on my wishlist.

Though I'll take a Jack Robot Double, if anyone's handing them out. ;-)

This icon - it is for you. Not the same expression. But close enough to be - MADE OF WIN.
