Dec. 22nd, 2007 11:49 amYou know that I occasionally put forward challenges such as 'make fake Pokémon cards' and 'cross inappropriate fandoms over with Pokémon'? Most of them seem to involve Pokémon in some way. Well, I've just been struck with the idea of challenging you all to create fanvids for highly inappropriate pairings, set to the hilariously awful 'Misty's Song' from the Pokémon soundtrack.
There are three main problems with this plan:
1) I can't make fanvids at all - not even bad ones - so I can't make one myself, which makes demanding them from others seem more 'DANCE FOR MY AMUSEMENT, SLAVES' than 'it's all right; we're all being silly together'.
2) I don't actually have a soundfile of 'Misty's Song', so I can't distribute it for ease of video-making. NOT THAT I WOULD DO ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
3) It is a terrible, terrible idea.
So this is an entry explaining why I am not setting this challenge and not a subtle-as-a-brick method of trying to get you to create videos without my outright asking for them at all.
You know that you want a James/Mary fanvid set to that song, don't you? JAMES SUNDERLAND, NOT JAMES MAY. OR JAMES OF TEAM ROCKET. If you think you can pull off a James of Team Rocket/Mary Shepherd-Sunderland fanvid, go ahead, you crazy person.

th_esaurus, for those of you who are as fanvideally challenged as I am: Another challenge for you to consider setting your flist: re-writing songs so that they become COMEDY SHIPPING SONGS! Yes!
