i was tagged by gaiagalit and below the cut are my answers and the questions for the next set of people

Rule 1: Always post the rules. Rule 2: Answer questions that are given to you and then write 11 new ones. Rule 3: Tag 11 people. Rule 4: Let them know you tagged them. Rule 5: Don’t change the rules.

1. Fandom you wish you were a part of:

ummm well I kind of wish I had been into LOST while it was airing, so I guess that counts. It would've been easier to find other fans and such.

Ship you once shipped hard, but now it’s (almost) your NOTP:

idk, like 90% of my ships are ones I have to be sold on in the writing/by the characters, so once I ship something I typically stick to it. During the first season I was ok with the idea of Ollie and Felicity and now I'm shipping Felicity hard with Barry so I kind of notp Felicity and Ollie I guess.

Ship you’re only partially on board with:

I guess I can count Joan and Sherlock (Elementary) for this because I don't at all ship them in the show but I like seeing shipper edits and fics.

Country you’d love to visit but haven’t yet:

Ireland! I have family there.

If you had to change your first name, what would you change it to:

This is such a weird thing to think about, and like I've never really been super fond of Courtney as a name but I also can't imagine myself being named something else. If I actually had too, like we're talking witness protection program or something, maybe Bryce. (cause it's kinda like a femaleish/unisexish version of Bruce... like Bruce Wayne....)

Name two songs that you think would be great as a mashup:

I'm so bad at this kind of thing. Can I just give you one of my favorites instead? Radioactive vs Radioactive

Craziest dream you ever had:

When I was younger I had the same dream like three different times, that my grandma's pastor had murdered my grandpa (this was years after my grandpa died, which happened way before she even started going to that church.) So that was kind of weird. I once had a dream and realized I was dreaming so started trying to wake myself up... that was pretty crazy too.

Favorite book:

idk, I'm so bad with picking favorite anythings. Blue Like Jazz was p phenomenal. At the risk of sounding super cliche, I also have a special place in my heart for Perks of Being A Wallflower. 

Least favorite fruit:

Well tomatoes are ~technically~ a fruit (even if I categorize them as vegetables in my mind), and I hate tomatoes so those could count I guess.

Favorite cover of a song:

"Time After Time" by Quietdrive, originally done by Cyndi Lauper, as far as I know.

Foreign language you speak/are learning? (Other than English or your native language):

I took a Spanish class and an online Italian class in high school but I don't remember much of either one.

I tag the following: gaiagalit, solverisfronde, garykingoftheworld, snarkysweetness, holydman, arosynose, manjolras, imagineagreatadventure, starkassembled, andreibolkonskys, and brucebannrs

All right so now my questions for you lovelies.

Favorite band(/artist) that is no longer together(/making music)?

Favorite non-fast food restaurant?

Do you more often like or dislike movie sequels?

What new movie are you most looking forward to in 2014?

When travelling by car, do you prefer to drive or be the passenger?

What are a few shows and/or movies that you consider staples of your childhood?

Are you taller than your mom?

Do you remember your first​ favorite song?​

Excluding family, are you still friends with anyone you knew before you were ten years old?

Is there any kind of food that you absolutely cannot stand?

Type your tumblr name into a google image search and post the first picture result. If your username is made of more than one word, use spaces when you search. (e.g. mine would be "a boys best friend is his mother" instead of "aboysbestfriendishismother")

Ok, ok, didn’t know it bothered you this much. He’s not one.

????

I'm not getting bothered by it, I mean obviously the original post was about me being annoyed by the quote from the show but our debate about it wasn't bothering me?

[thisispawnee]

so i did a google search and found this article which is written by someone who actually has seen the show and makes the same argument

Not to sound mean or accusing just you are judging something on the first part of the first episode, not their best work, and on gif which can be taken out of context all day long.

This is the only part of your reply I can see...

and fair enough, but I'm just saying if you're really willing to tell me Sherlock doesn't truly care at all about Ms. Hudson or John then maybe you have an argument, and you're right gifs can be taken out of context, but from my understanding he does. You can correct me on that though. 

Also, even if he was a sociopath, his reply still doesn't make sense because a psychopath and a sociopath are essentially the same thing. Mr. Vitek and Jeff Dennis both said that when covering that topic. That was the main point of my original post, that the writers made a mistake by using that as a reply. I commented on his character because in my opinion it's ridiculous to give him that label at all, but as I said before that's from the opinion of someone who has only seen gifs and a small part of one episode so I could be wrong there. I'm not claiming to be absolutely correct or that I know everything about the show from a 30 minute clip. I'm far from the ultimate opinion on the show or the character of Sherlock but I'm still allowed to make my own observations and opinions about it.

See you fall into the trap of canon for sherlock. They made the show so they can make him that way. There is no canon because its a remake.

i assume you're referring to my tag;

#if sherlock was made into a sociopath then it would be extremely out of character compared to canon or any other adaptation

 i wasnt saying bbc sherlock was ooc compared to bbc sherlock. by canon i mean book sherlock, ive seen others on the site use that to refer to him so that's why i did, and what i was saying is if BBC actually intended to make him a sociopath then he would be extremely OOC compared to any other sherlock, including the book and other adaptations, and i only made the comparison because it's supposedly trying to stay close to the same character, just set in modern times, unless im mistaken about that.

also he's not a sociopath, i can tell you that from the 30 minutes i watched of the pilot and the millions of gifs ive seen. just because he says "im a high functioning sociopath" doesnt mean that it's true, it means he was making a ~clever sounding~ comeback which isn't even clever because it doesnt make sense.
