Dept. of Inarticulateness

AAAargh!!

I can't post - not about big things, nor about little things. F'list, I'm turning to you. 

Ask me questions, and I'll answer them in posts. Ask me fannish questions, ask me about my life, about reporting, about my tastes in food or music, ask me the other answer to life, the universe, and everything (the one that isn't '42'), and I'll answer. 

Or at least I'll do my best. And you'll have helped me get back into the posting habit. 

A grateful kaffyr thanks you!

(And also thinks she should probably apologize if this seems pretty egocentric. So here's another idea. If you'd like, you could ask me for a fic. Name your characters, and some sort of setup - happy, sad, funny - and I'll try to write something. So, yeah, there's that option.)

So, in my watching of Classic Who, I have been casually cataloguing Doctors based on traits that I find important. Like tinker-y-ness, introspection, and tendency to shed clothes (I've got a weakness for shirtsleeves). I've a vague notion of making a big chart when I'm done, because surely this is something the world needs. Name a quality that you find appealing or important in Doctors and rank as many Doctors as you can by this quality. Any way you feel like taking this is fine by me: classic and/or modern Doctors, a strict ranking system or something more loose (more tinker-y, middlingly tinker-y, not tinker-y), with supporting commentary or without.

Wow - this will take some time for me, since I'm comfortably directly aware of only three Old Who doctors (or four, looking at the Eighth along with the Third, Fourth, and Fifth.) I know One from my childhood, but haven't watched him lately, and have watched (and liked) two Two adventures. I've gotten through two Seven adventures, and I'm drawn to him, but I want to see more of his later adventures. I did watch a lot of Six, but the poor man was so awfully directed and written that I was put off by him. I'm told that he comes off far better in the non-television adventures ... anyhow, yes, I shall think on the Old Who Doctors. I can easily talk about New Who, although I'm rather surprised at how my affections have evolved.

tl;dr: I love this, and will work on it!
