Thursday's Top ten countdown list:

[capri0mni]

Reasons why I want the ProFun Trolls to be a Widely Recognised Subgenre of Doctor Who Fan Fic:

Top ten reasons:

• 10. Rolly Polly Trollies in Birthday hats are cute.


• 09. If Pro-Fun Trolldom becomes a recognized facet of the Internet, then maybe we'll hear less fear-mongering about it on the evening news.


• 08. It might earn an article in Wikipedia, written by someone else.


• 07. It will make me a Big Name Fan, and I can have groupies.


• 06. There's too much fear and dread and anger in the world, today, and a pro-fun troll meme (in the original meaning of the word) would be a force for good.


• 05. Non-linear plots and stories of silliness are good for the soul.
  
• 04. Big Finish might weave some good, rollicking fiddle and banjo tunes into the plots of their Adventures.


• 03. I want a set of plush trolls to cuddle.
  
• 02. Florestandrezopretrizon is a damn fine character (and I can say that, 'cause he was created, by a whole bunch of writers).

And the Number One Reason:
I could go to a Doctor Who convention with a bunch of birthday hats and party tooters, and people would recognize that I was in a themed costume.
