Do gift horses come with spyware and virusii?

[icarus]

I am deeply suspicious.

It's not that I'm not happy my spyware and virus protection software haven't picked up a single virus or spy-fly in two weeks. Oh, yes, that is good news. Who wants virusii and spies?

It just doesn't make sense that as of December 31, all of my programs suddenly declare a daily clean bill of health. Not so much as a tracking cookie. For as long as I can remember, I've picked up a daily clutter of adware.

Also, don't different virus protection packages detect different viruses and spyware? They shouldn't match.

Then, the date they all started declaring my system clean is suspicious. They all say the same thing as of December 31st.

Add to that my system is running at the speed of cold sludge.

...

Yeah. Maybe I should celebrate my good fortune. Or maybe I should take a closer look.

Hey, maybe when they film the epilogue...?

(I actually have a fully-outlined HP/SGA crossover fic in which Rodney refers to Harry as John's "mini-me." Then there's some spitting and flailing.)

You know what was great about Heteronormativity? It was fresh and different. I mean, it was also hilarious, but SGA has fallen into a rut lately.

You think so? I guess I don't notice these things off on my edge of the fandom. Maybe it's because the last season was such a disappointment; people weren't feeling the happy anymore and fell back on familiar and comfortable themes, like the eleventy jillion McShep tags/fixits for "Shrine." I know I stopped watching for a while after getting through "The Lost Tribe" because I was feeling burnt out on it, but I'm in Kazakhstan and nobody expects me to pay attention. ;-)
