I have been watching Grey's Anatomy from repeats on Lifetime (I think I've seen all of the first season at this point) while waiting for Cold Case Files and Unsolved Mysteries to come on, and I don't understand it... The characters, the motivations, none of it. I never saw it when it was originally airing, but I remember when I was in college people were having viewing parties and missing night classes just to watch it. I guess I just don't get what I'm supposed to be taking away from the show or if I'm supposed to be taking anything away at all... I keep watching because of the fact that it confounds me... and also because it's either watch this or watch one of the birthing shows on TLC.

I am working on making myself sick with my dinner choice this evening- chicken quesadilla, beef taco, large Mountain Dew, and a small turtle sippable sundae... *om nom nom*
ETA: Things that are "turtle" should have pecans... not peanuts. *disappointed face*
15 – Warnings – What do you feel it most important to warn for, and what's the strangest thing you've warned for in a fic?
I think it is probably most important things to warn for are non-con/rape/assault and torture, even if you warn with a highlightable warning. Major/main character death is a toughie for me though. For a long!fic, I would say don't warn for main character death (I didn't warn for a death that occurs in Paper Pusher because it was a long!fic that I felt was building towards that sort of resolution, but I did warn for all the violence and some gore that occurred), but for a shorter fic or drabble, I'd say yes. I think if you're unsure about giving certain things away about the story as far as spoilers then use the "highlight to read" method of adding warnings (that's what I would do if I was unsure at any rate) or wait until the appropriate chapter to add a warning.
For the most part, probably just simply stating whether something is worksafe or not worksafe is sufficient sometimes. :D
The strangest thing I ever warned for was "abuse of stuffed animals" in a chapter of Versailles Undone (not worksafe ever)... I also had to warn for the exact same thing in a Spike artwork. XD
