A Study In Pink

So, the BBC aired SHERLOCK tonight, and... well, wow, really. I wasn't exactly sure what I was expecting, but it wasn't that. Holmes and Watson Sherlock and John (I don't think I'll ever get used to that) running across rooftops and using GPS to track criminals. Wow. I'll do a proper write-up later. Or maybe just wait until S does his and link to it, because he's probably better at that sort of thing than I am.
BUT! That wasn't even the best bit. The best bit was all the everyone who came over. Very successful turnout, I thought. Finally got to meet
salts_theway in person. She was cool. Pretty much exactly what I was expecting, I think. And just like I promised everyone, S was... well, okay. Not exactly behaved, but civil. He mostly just ignored everyone, and spent most of the time pointing out plotholes in the show. Well, shouting at them. He really didn't like that Holmes didn't work out the thing with the killer (being intentionally vague so I don't have to cut for spoilers).
It went off fairly... ok. We did have another group of people from
holmeschat show up. I'm so sick of those people. Seriously. Maybe these ones will get stupid and post to HC as well so I can bring the smackdown on them as well. But Mary and Bill took care of them so I didn't have to deal wit them.
Once again, my flat is completely cover in popcorn. It's all ground into the carpet, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to have to try to pull out the sofa to get all of it. You guys, seriously. And if it isn't popcorn, it's cake. WTF, I thought we were all adults. Why is there cake ground into my chair? BILL, YOU WERE SITTING THERE. WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU DOING WITH THAT CAKE? I swear, you're about this close to having embarrassing pictures show upon on the internet. I'll put them on HC if I have to.
Harry called a bit after the episode was over to have a bit of a shouting match. Sorry to everyone who was still here, again. She was pissed off that I did the pub quiz last night but I just didn't even want to deal with it. My phone's off for the night. If you need me, send S a text or something. He's good at screening calls.
