Whee, Fandom!

I have run across at least three fics in the last week that used the word "palette" (a thin oval or rectangular board or tablet that a painter holds and mixes pigments on) when they should have said "palate" (the roof of the mouth in humans and other mammals/the sense of taste). As in, using one's tongue to map another's palette, or not having the palette for a particular wine, both of which errors give me really, really amusing mental images. *snerk*

Also! I've been nominated in Round 26 of the Sunnydale Memorial Fanfiction Awards! I don't know where these noms are all coming from, lately, but I love my f'list anyway. *hugs all* This time, I'm up for:

Best Crossover (Movie): Like Mayonnaise and Miracle Whip (B:tVS/Jurassic Park)
Best Crossover (Movie) Pairing: Like Mayonnaise and Miracle Whip (Buffy Summers/Alan Grant)
Best Crossover (TV): Temporal Malfunctions (B:tVS/Star Trek:TOS)
