Let me make you a Top 5 list. Name a topic, subject, category, whatever, in the comments, and I'll post my top 5 things in thatcategory/subject/topic. Anything goes!

marinarusalka, whom I asked for the Top Five Ways To Piss Iphicles Off. I must share her answers, because they cracked me up, especially #1 and #2:
Aaand some answers (but you can ask me more, this is fun!):
Iolaus' Top Five Pickup Lines:
1. "C'mon, Herc. You know you want to."
2. "You want to get out of here? I think the roof's about to go."
3. "So. Exactly what would a pirate like you do to a guy like me?"
4. "Let me show you something else I learned in the East..."
5. "Hey, is that a hydra in your codpiece or are you just glad to see me?"
Top Five Slashiest Herc/Iolaus moments:
1. See icon. I call it 'gay barn'. 'Nuff said.
2. All of 'Hero's Heart'. Iolaus alone and heartbroken, crying at the campfire. And the breakup scene. "I just need some time to myself." And Hercules looking so lost and upset and being all, "Well fine, but I'm following you around anyway."
3. All of 'Not Fade Away'. Except for the stupid bits with the two Enforcers. Best hurt/comfort episode ever, and I am a total, total sucker for the scene where Iolaus crawls over the dunes, already dead but too stubborn to die, and then dies in Hercules' arms after delivering his warning. Whoof.
4. The near-kiss, full length lying on top of each other moment in 'Revelations'. 'Hi, buddy.' Heee.
5. The bit in 'Full Circle' where Hercules turns over to wake up Iolaus, and the camera reveals they're practically on top of each other despite having a whole forest to stretch out in.
Top Five Ways To Eat A Chocotoff:
1. Slowly.
2. Very slowly.
3. Very fast, because you have a whole bag and really robust teeth.
4. Two at a time.
5. Melting it in the microwave to make chocolate caramel sauce and ending up with a hard brittle lump. Oh no, wait.
Top Five Most Crackheaded HtLJ Plotlines:
1. The one where a toddler halfgod creates a huge dragon that blows bubbles instead of fire. For an encore, he gets Hera to come out of the abyss and be nice to people and ask Iolaus how they are related.
2. The one in the mirror universe where Ares, God of Love watches Empress Nebula and Ares, God of War have wild monkey sex together.
3. The one where Callisto has godlike powers, travels back in time and manages to kill her own parents. By accident.
4. The one set just before the French Revolution, where they all speak in execrable French accents.
“Oh! Francois, these peasants are revolting.”
“Yes-- they throw off the shackle of oppression.”
“No, I mean they are disgusting.”
“Oh, yeah, that too.”
5. The one where Hercules goes mad and nearly kills off several foreign pantheons to make up for losing Iolaus. Luckily Iolaus gets sent back by the Archangel Michael so he can keep Hercules from destroying the universe. Or maybe it was the Four Horsemen. I forget.
Top Five Things Not To Give Ares as a Thank-You Gift:
1. Anything heart-shaped. Unless it's actually a heart. Preferably a demigod one.
2. Anything pink. Unless it's a fetchingly naked mortal. Iolaus, say.
3. Joxer. Unless he's the badass Joxer from the alternate universe.
4. Anything with feathers. Except maybe Cupid.
5. A dog. It'll all end in tears.
Top Five Fandoms You Wish You Could Have Got Into, But Never Did:
1. Blake's 7. A classic. Dark, British, and has excellent writers and boatloads of fic, from what I can see. Just never got into it at all.
2. Stargate SG-1. Again with the boatloads of fic, and really good vids as well. I don't think I'd like it as much as SGA, though, which is my crack fandom du jour.
3. Robin of Sherwood. I totally would have gotten into the fandom if I'd only been able to see more episodes when I was the right age, or had known of the existence of fandom. Michael Praed. Yowza.
4. Xena. I liked the first seasons, but after everyone started getting pregnant and acting wildly out of character, I gave up.
5. Angel. Lum's vids have convinced me that I should have watched this when it was on. And also that whoa, Lindsey was hot.

marinarusalka, whom I asked for the Top Five Ways To Piss Iphicles Off. I must share her answers, because they cracked me up, especially #1 and #2:1. Be HerculesSo. Ask me for a top five!
2. Ask, "Hey, aren't you Hercules' little brother?"
3. Start a riot when his wife is on her deathbed.
4. Petition him to establish a wildlife sanctuary for the endangered sand shark.
5. Declare war on Corinth while he's trying to have a vacation.
