I have created a list!
Jan. 22nd, 2003 04:56 pmHey, it's finally happened. I have created a yahoo-list!
Are you tired of grown men behaving like teenagers? Do you like yourLotR-men hot, manly and mature? Do you find yourself drooling overobscure Orc-actors and geeky special-effects guys? And are you happywith a conspicuous absence of the so-called pretty?
Then join this new list!
It's here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/manly_men/
It's called "Manly Men and Horny Orcs."
This is a list devoted to RPS, slash, fanfic and discussion of LotR menover 30, both cast and crew. Cut-off point is vintage 1970 or earlier (i.e. age 30 and older during filming in NZ). Anyone younger than thatcannot appear as a main character in a story; sorry: no Orlando and nohobbits (except for the stunt doubles, of course). Honorary 'manly men':any and all Orc-actors. Partly because I love them, partly because nothing is less pretty than an Orc, and partly because I don't knowmost of their ages...
Fics, pics and droolage, any rating, slash/het/gen, cross-overs (withother manly men): all are welcome, especially if it broadens ourhorizons beyond the mainstream men!
Note: You must be over 18 to join this group.

be strong
Date: 2003-01-22 09:20 am (UTC)I still can't get over the fact that I founded a list that *excludes* Karl.
;-)

Date: 2003-01-22 09:22 am (UTC)Um, hang on. I'm mad. Billy's old enough.

Date: 2003-01-22 09:27 am (UTC)Bwuahahahah.
You have divined the true reason I founded this list. *cracks whip*
Re: miss
Date: 2003-01-22 10:32 am (UTC)And are we your harem now, à la Gorn's Harem? (Only without quite so much swooning.)
Re: miss
Date: 2003-01-22 11:19 am (UTC)Although,er, that might be taking it too far. I don't, after all, want to be one of those me-me-me list-mothers. I just like to feel in control. (But then of course I *so* am not as is proven by my very first posts in which I confused Billy's birthdate and thought that somebody born in 1968 was actually younger than somebody born in 1970.... Pisstress more likely.)

Date: 2003-01-22 10:07 am (UTC)Just wondering. *blows kisses*
agony
Date: 2003-01-22 11:11 am (UTC)Oh, I agonised about this for about 4 minutes. (You don't want to agonise *too* long about such matters, after all....) But in the end I opted for no-shagging-anyone-younger (now to define that...). Mainly, I confess, because I didn't want to be swamped with Viggorli.
And also to force people, incl. *myself*, to discover and explore some new guys. Otherwise it could just be: Dom/x, Lij/y, Dom/z, Lij/w. That's nothing new.
The worst thing about this list is that, *sob*, I've barred myself from *KARL*. How will I survive this? *throws herself on floor*
I suppose it will help me to think of it not as *my* list (a la quiseyes) but as just "a" list.
Huh.

*pets Lobelia*
There, there, dear. You'll get over it. There are plenty of lists for Karl fics. *heh*
Re: agony
Date: 2003-01-22 12:09 pm (UTC)But of course, we wouldn't want the listmom to run roughshod over her own list rules simply because of her bizarre preference for one particular actor. *heh*
