First line meme.
I wanted to do the 'post the first line of your last 25 stories' meme, but most of those first lines were just boring - snippets of dialog or single words or sentences that out of context didn't make any sense. So instead, I looked through all my fic and picked the top 5 first lines.
1) If T'Pol had been human she would have enjoyed the trip.
If you don't know the Enterprise fandom, you won't get what's funny about this. If you do - this fic was a gen fic with Tucker/T'Pol vibes all over it. Lol.
2) Maya had never been able to understand why there were cars on the American market that could go over one hundred and fifty miles an hour despite the fact that because of the speed limit the buyers wouldn't be able to enjoy the full capacity of their vehicle.
I included this first line as an example of how to NEVER EVER IN A BAJILLION YEARS start your fic. Sheesh, worst first line ever, lol.
3) Everybody at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital agreed that Dr. Gregory House was an out-of-control nutcase.
This first line, on the other hand, I do like.
4) Wilson felt pleasant warmth surrounding him and sighed contentedly, turning his head to the side and snuggling into the pillow without opening his eyes.
This is the first line of a fic titled Sunday, and I like how it's all snuggly and warm and comfortable and Sunday-y. The rest of the fic is quite lame, though.
5) The doorbell rang when Leon was halfway through the fifth chapter of Berserker Stronghold, and the sudden sound made him flinch and steer his warrior right into a crevasse.
Lol, geekiest first line ever y/y? It made me lol.
And now I will stop procrastinating and will go write stuff. YES I WILL.

The first slash I ever read was the summer after they cancelled it, in an anime fandom no one has ever heard of.
Good times.
