Never try to "Know your enemy", you'll end up obsessed with them.

Robin Hood. Moulin Rouge. Rise Against. Shrimps. Lion King. Robin Hood AGAIN. These are all things I've sworn vows of hatred against. And now I love them all. Admittedly, the first Robin Hood (Kevin Costner version) is only on my love list because of his Rickman-ness playing Mr Sheriff. But apart from that, they're all things I didn't watch/listen/ to/eat because I knew I'd hate them if I did. Then I did. And now I know how awesome they are.

This is all very good and dandy, and it means I can eat shrimps and watch Moulin Rouge more than I would have been able to do otherwise, but I can just tell it's going to happen with Doctor Who, which is bad, bad, bad. Because I KNOW I hate Doctor Who, but I'm going to watch it anyway, my justification being that it obviously won't convert me, and I'll know what I'm talking about when I scathingly criticise it.

And now I've gone and watched it. And it's AWESOME. It has a guy so mental I'd like to think he reminded me of myself, and aliens who look and sound like Darth Vader (obviously without the mask, moron). And to put a little grape on the top of the cake, as I don't like cherries- never tried them, I just know- it has a Scottish person. How could I have been so stupid? I've missed out on most of a lifes worth of Doctor Whos.

Basically, I've done it again. Which is annoying. Yet not, because I have something else to do now on my lonely little evenings staring at a computer screen. Goodbye.
