Come to the SV social

"I would like to extend to you an invitation to the pants party. The party with the...with the pants. The party with pants."
"Brick, are you saying there's a party in your pants and I'm invited?" (Anchorman)



No, actually the party is in the comments of this entry! Come and join the fun and meet new people in SV fandom. I would especially like to encourage you quiet folks lurking in the back--even those of you without livejournals of your own--to drop by and introduce yourselves. We're all a pretty friendly bunch here, and we like to make new friends. Fandom is more fun when you get involved and meet people, so why don't you stop by and say hi?

Here's a little mini-questionnaire, almost completely stolen from [livejournal.com profile] svmadelyn's glee week social, in case you need a conversation starter, but feel free to answer as many or as few questions as you are interested in answering:

1. Tell us something about yourself:
2. Likes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff):
3. Dislikes (characters, ships, genres, TV shows, actors, real life stuff) :
4. What got you interested in Smallville?
5. What are your favorite SV episodes?
6. What SV fanfic do you reread most often?
7. Random facts (favorite food, color you wouldn't be caught dead wearing, pets' names, number of pairs of shoes you own, where you would live if you were a billionaire, etc.)

Happy delurking day! Come join the party!

It wasn't me!!! *frantic look around* It was HER! *points up*

However, on things I will take credit for... My fav theorist is either Lila Abu-Lughod or Nancy Scheper-Hughes, though I like Paul Farmer's writing a lot. And my favorite ethnography by huge heaps and bounds is Phillipe Bourgois' "In Search of Respect". Mmmmm! Tasty anthropologists!

I also like Abu-Lughod a lot. I haven't read Bourgois, but that book looks really interesting--I'll have to add it to my ever-growing list!

It's really fantastic. I have huge admiration for him and his work. I should warn you that it is also painful at times.

Are you interested in Anthro... well. That's dumb. Clearly you are interested in Anthro. Who is your fav theorist and what is your interest? :)

Well, I took some cultural studies classes in the 90s where we read a fair bit of ethnography, but most of it is pretty ancient stuff like Geertz and Barbara Myerhoff (who I really do love, mostly for "Number Our Days" rather than her stuff on the Huichol.
