reality television

I totally think Kara would watch Survivor or that sort of thing, if only to tell the people on TV what they're doing wrong. Lee would roll his eyes but secretly get really into Project Runway and Top Chef.

From:

candy corn flavored everything (did you know they even made Oreos?)

From:

candy corn flavoured Oreos sound SERIOUSLY unappealing, and somehow I don't see Lee as someone who cares for that stuff, and when it comes to junk food, Kara in my head is more a potato-chip liker.

(I think she'd care passionately about chocolate, though, for some reason)

From:

the current presidential election (bonus points if you want to work Roslin or Lee's own candidacy in there somehow..or Baltar)

I think Kara is a registered Republican (as per RDM too) but she is going to vote for the Democrat presidential candidate cause the Republican one keeps saying stupid things and she doesn't like the notion of him being anti-choice when there's no apocalypse and no particular need to restrict access to reproductive healthcare/abortions.

and I don't think Lee would vote Republican either.

I think Lee would vote Democratic, but he would probably also be an activist to some extent in his spare time, and I think he might be a voice for compromise and bipartisanship.

I kind of think Kara wouldn't vote. I think she sees all politicians as essentially out for themselves and she doesn't care enough about which elite wealthy figurehead gets elected to put too much time/thought into following their campaigns. I think she figures she does her part for the community by serving in their defense, and she can leave the politics to be argued over by people who care more about it.

From:

Gangnam Style (IDEK what the heck this is)

From:

Kara would find it hilarious and kind of awesome, Lee would be embarrassed by how much he likes it. And they would both totally end up drinking with Psy if they ever met him :)

From:

Fifty Shades of Grey

From:

Lee would want it gone to the fiery depths of obscurity for being badly-written and glorifying abusive characters, Kara would just make a 'wtf' face and ignore it completely, her tastes in literature are a touch more highbrow ;)

From:

I think they'd try it, methodical-like, with Lee having a checklist and all. ;)

From:

I think it's really too basic for them - they'd both be more likely to use The Story of O or even Anaïs Nin as inspiration for those checklists.

From:

Or write their own, anonymous critique including recommendations for how to do it all better and safer.

From:

LOL, yes. For as sexy as we think they are, they'd really only had sex one night and Lee might like some tips on being adventurous. I think they'd eventually just do their own thing. Maybe they'd write their own Fifty Shades of Starbuck and Apollo. ;)

From:

Oh totally. The first time they came across it I imagine they'd be all shifty eyed and nervously gauging each other's reactions. Lee would be blushing ;)

From:

which is why he'd be more likely to use The Story of O - the literary value to it makes it less embarrassing to check out, and Kara wouldn't be as likely to laugh ;)

From:

superhero movies

From:

Harry Potter

From:

Sadly, I can't really see either one of them getting very into the Potter phenomenon. They were too old for it when it started, and I don't think either of them reads fantasy or children's lit for fun.

From:

Social Media

From:

they both think it's ridiculous, but Lee would probably keep a Linkedin page for work because everyone is expected to do it. and Kara would have an empty Facebook page she never posts on because she's not into sharing stuff about herself in general and doesn't care for the 'friending' culture of Facebook.

They'd both avoid Twitter like the plague.

From:

I think Lee would assiduously and carefully use all of his social media to promote himself as the "good son" because he has political aspirations. He'd never post pictures of himself, more likely photos of events that the voting public might like. If you ask him, he'll deny it and say he's just interested in those things. Kara would bust on him and one night make a fake Lee Adama page, onto which she posts dirty photographs of the two of them together. She fakes him out and they have a huge argument that ends up in kisses and tickles and much more.

From:

Online dating

From:

While Zak is still with Kara, Lee checks out online dating sites and panics because it's all to weird and unfamiliar. He keeps looking, though, because he's lonely.

One night he's shocked to find out that someone has winked at him. (He doesn't have a photo on his profile.) When he clicks on the link, it's Kara. Later he finds out that Kara and Zak have broken up and Lee goes on his first date via online dating. They live happily ever after. Mostly. ;)
