Hope this is allowed and whatnot. But I get my news from the Daily Show and Colbert Report (Where more people get their news than probably should). Colbert is getting ready for the royal wedding, and he does this bit where an Englishman is attempting to teach him manners. The whole time, I'm thinking, What Would Jeeves Do?

Here is a link, if anyone wants to take a gander and answer the question. What Would Jeeves Do?
I've voting for an accidental slap upside the head.

But did anyone else know we have an urban dictionary definition for"Jooster"?  
 ...And one for "Jeevery," which I've never heard but would like to start using?
And of course there's a dozen for Jeeves, one of which is "Man who tucks Bertie Wooster in at night."
Sorry if this is irrelevant, I'm not at the top of my form, but a friend pointed it out and I thought you ought to know.

I dreamed of this little scene, only a tad more Jooster-like. Oops.



The waters have been a bit quiet on my front, and I thought any contribution would be nice at this point.
 
If you haven't read Kazou Ishiguro's The Remains of the Day, I highly recommend it. Or the movie. Or both.
It tells the story of Stevens, an English butler who has dedicated his life to the loyal service of one Lord Darlington. So dedicated even, that he's oblivious of the real life that goes on around him: who his employer really is, and - heartbreaking - he doesn't allow himself to fall in love, as you can see in the clip *also, insert Jeeves here*
Sounds boring maybe, but it's one of my most cherished books and I am sure it won't leave you unaffected.

There's a vid clip here of a woman mechanic wing-walking and replacing the landing wheel of a plane in flight. It's from a newsreel from about 1920. One wonders what Bertie might have made of this kind of beazel!

A fanfic generator. I put certain adjectives in, and here’s what it came up with. Sure, some of it doesn’t make too much sense, but that doesn’t matter. Enjoy!

 

Go HERE to make your own generated fics!

The Dove Prince

Jeeves was walking through a creamy meadow, laughing at the butterflies flitting around his head when he spied a sticky little dove lying under a tree.

Jeeves skipped over to see the dear thing and was gorgeous to find that he was hurt! A b. and s. had sliced his delicious little leg and he whimpered sensually with the pain.

"My hot little friend," Jeeves said. "Let me help you!" He took out his Leatherman Multi-Purpose tool and pulled out the b. and s., as hoarsely as he could. The dove cried out and Jeeves's heart ached, like the woolliest baa-lamb that ever stepped. "You'll be all right," Jeeves whispered. "I'll take care of you. I'll call you Bertie and you can live with me forever!"

Scooping Bertie up in his arms, Jeeves carried him home and made a bed for him beside his own. For seven days and seven nights, Jeeves nursed Bertie, cleaning his leg and feeding him Tie-brand dove chow.

On the eighth night, Bertie climbed into bed with Jeeves. He burrowed under the covers and dirtily licked Jeeves's lips. It made Jeeves giggle and he cuddled close to Bertie, stroking his arm and singing slowly to him.

They continued that way for a long time. Every day, Jeeves hurried home so he could curl up with Bertie. It gave him a gooey feeling whenever Bertie licked his lips.

Then one night, Bertie looked up at Jeeves and said, "If you kiss me, I will become a lovely prince."

Jeeves screamed spine-tinglingly, he was so surprised. How could a dove talk? He must have dropped off and dreamed it.

"You're not dreaming," Bertie said. "Kiss me."

"Don't tell anyone I screamed like that," Jeeves said and kissed Bertie on his arm. The air swirled and suddenly, there stood a lovely prince! With a crown and everything!

"I'm Prince Bertie," he said. "I was cursed. It's a long story."

"Is it really you?" Jeeves said.

"See?" Bertie said and showed Jeeves the scar from the b. and s. on his leg. Then he kissed Jeeves and they tumbled in the water and did a lot of very fluffy things, some of them involving a sexy restorative.

"I love you," Bertie said when they were done. Jeeves clasped him close and they lived together happily ever after on all the prince treasure Bertie had stashed away.

And if Bertie didn't know about Jeeves's visits to the dove sanctuary, well, it wouldn't hurt him.”

The Pac-Bell Tower in San Francisco is from Bertie and Jeeves's time. The photos here are just incredible. I can hardly believe that a beautiful building like this still exists. If our boys had visited SF in the late 20s or beyond, they'd have very likely seen this amazing building.

I can't even tell you how bally amazing this thing is. Go look at the photos, dash it!

I just saw this and couldn't help laughing my ass off imagining Bertie doing this number, much to Jeeves's chagrin.

This is part of a live performance of a comic book (very different and fun), but in it we have the usual Butler Named Jeeves here about two minutes in...

There's a writing analysis site that offers a chance for you to cut and paste some of your text into a box and have it compared to the writer you most closely match. I pasted in the first page or so of my most recent fic for the community here and got this result.

I Write Like by Mémoires, Mac journal software. Analyze your writing!




SQUEEE!

Hi everyone! I have made screencaps of an old show called Happy Families that Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie were in. They act rather slashy so I thought this community would appreciate me sharing the link. They're over here at my journal. :)


Mods, if this isn't on-topic enough, feel free to delete.

Good evening, all! I come with a community pimp, which I feel could prove somewhat relevant to the members of indeedsir. It is a community for breaking through writer's block.

[livejournal.com profile] blocked_fanfic is the name, sharing writing resources is the game. It's a place for discussions, one-sentence fics, plot bunny adoption, prompts given and taken, etc. In short, a one-stop shop for anything related to writer's block. If you feel the need to commiserate, if you have good advice for those prone to writer's block, or simply want someone to prompt you a little, this is the place for it.

I hope my prompt doesn't offend, and feel free to come join if you need to get your creative juices flowing again ^^

I say!

Monday was my birthday, and I got quite a few wonderful gifts, including Stephen Fry's "Moab Is My Washpot", "The World of Jeeves and Wooster" album, and the complete Fry/Laurie Jeeves and Wooster!!!!! This was quite the windfall =D !!!

Also - off-topic - is anyone else having trouble with LJ formatting? Not being able to put in cuts or italics or anything?

   As some members expressed certain curiosity as to how other nations understand and imagine Jeeves, I decided to suply your respectable melons with information of how it is in Czech.

Who is Saturnin? )

Dear chaps and chapettes, I need a few good tips, if you can spare me some.

I am working on a Jooster fic, which I have rather high hopes for. Longish, about four chapters/10,000 words I estimate (unless the plot bunny mutates horribly). I have the whole story worked out in my head, I wrote the first chapter with great enthusiasm and then - writer's block. I can't seem to write a single sentence without grimacing at it afterwards.

So, in short - what do people do when they have writer's/artist's block? How do you get your creative juices flowing again, so to speak? I'm asking since even my usual routine of tea, books and biscuits didn't work, and I really, really want to finish this fic :)

Thanks in advance!

Well, I'm sure I've seen it mentioned on this lovely little fandom: League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: What ho, Gods of the Abyss!
What I wasn't sure of was whether or not anyone had linked the ability to read it for free to the comm. And so I do this now as my daily act of possibly unnecisarry charity. Because an act of necissary charity would be considered living beyond my means. My bad if it's already linked but I couldn't be bothered to check.
*steals back into the night* Enjoy!

Edited to include the fact that Jeeves giving Bertie the heimlich manoeuver is most amusing. My way of saying "I highly recommend this".

I just have to share my joy with you fine lot: I have a new hat (hat fanatic, anyone?). But the question is, would Jeeves approve? I think not. But I think Bertie would be very, very envious.

What ho, all!

I am asking for a little help on behalf of an RL friend. She is working on her degree in literature, and she's writing about - tah daa - fanfiction (library studies for the win, say I)! Before her adviser will approve of her research, she needs a few preliminary polls answered. They're short; just ten questions or so to answer about your fanfiction habits and yourself. Full anonymity is guaranteed. The first poll is up now; all polls and progress can be found here.

I hope some of you - especially our few male members - will be willing to help her. I know people have written papers like these before, but I really think this one is going to be great.

Cheers, and my friend says thanks in advance!

So I think it's safe to say that this fandom has warped any and all master/servant relationships in fiction for me (not that I have a problem with that ;D). That established, I was just a little nervous about reading/seeing Comedy of Errors this past week because it has TWO master/servant pairs and a housemate that I have a crush on was playing one of the two servants. This could have ventured into RPS. However, the actual performance seemed to justify my suspicions of Syracusian bromance. Antipholus and Dromio did a CONSIDERABLE amount of touching and clinging to each other and giving meaningful looks.

But what I'm really getting as is, do you guys see master/servant relationships as automatic potential for slash, or do the undertones from Jooster just bleed over into other fandoms? Just curious.

Discuss.
