Here are 5 LJ fandom posts that defy categories.
1. Angel Relationships Chart by

In Offspring Fred asks if a chart of Angel's relationships exists. St_salieri fills the lacuna (as of middle of AtS season 3). Totally hysterical.
2. Quantum physics proves ships by

Author devised a mathematical formula that proves that Spike\Angel relatioship makes the world go round.
3.
st_salieri completes Stoney321's formulas with her own calculations that prove that Buffy and Spike keep the sun burning.

(Sorry, can't keep from quoting!)
It is a well-known fact to anyone who reads Spuffy porn that Buffy has a Pussy Quotient of 185 for temperature and 133 for moisture. Both of these numbers are clearly beyond the normal range, indicating that Buffy's vagina is hotter than the sun. (These values have been corroborated by both Spike and Angel. We have not been able to find Riley to take a third measurement, so the numbers have been corrected slightly to account for a vampire's lukewarm body temperature.)
4. Interview with Character Fans and Bashers by

The first link is to the post dedicated to Xander fans and bashers scene, the second - to Spike's one. I have to confess that I was in stitches when I was reading the Xander scene and I felt a bit uncomfortable when I was reading the Spike one. I never took part in Xander wars so for me the arguments from both sides sounded as excerpts from Kafka or Ionesco. But I used to visit boards where Spike wars were fought and I know that these arguments were really used by both haters and fans. I even couldn't bring myself to comment on the Spike scene on lusciousxander's LJ. I correct my mistake by recommending it as a fascinating exploration of fandom mentality.

Anaross mostly writes Spuffy with occasional Spaith so her attempt to delve into Buffy\Angel relationship and to explain its attraction is intriguing and touching. Mocking title notwithstanding, she provides some pro-BA insights I never met in essays written by diehard BA shippers.
