Two, two, two memes in one (post)
Sep. 26th, 2007 10:30 amAll bow before me (though in my defense, the only reason I got a 90% on the math shit is because I live with an engineer):
And, apropos, I stole this from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
inahandbasket; he said that I have hidden geekiness. Maybe it's not all Mike's fault.
Reply to this post, and I will list three things I love about you. Maybe more than three. Then repost to your own journal and spread the love.
If you're gonna be a party pooper and refuse to spread the love, don't bother replying... what comes around goes around, so no love, sorry!

Sep. 22nd, 2007 11:01 pmHere's a quiz that the Lampes might appreciate:
Which Peanuts Character Are You? | |
 | You are Charlie Brown. You are always optimistic and persistent, and everyone appreciates your simple sweetness. Sometimes, however, your anxieties get the best of you, and life's mysteries can confuse you. |

The five question interview meme
Sep. 21st, 2007 09:10 amI'm always game for being asked... Today's questions (actually posed some week or so ago) are courtesy of wanderyng1:
1. Your army of mutant samurai squirrels is now complete. What do you do with them?
Start the revolution, obviously. ( A story... )
And it's all true.
2. You win the mega-millions and you're now the proud owner of multi-millions of dollars. What car do you run out and buy for yourself?
A fully restored Karmann Ghia, preferably from 1974 (my semi-restored girl rolled off the line June '74, making her one of the very last Ghias produced). I'd also go and find the Mustang that Mike had as a teenager. It was a '68, I think.
3. You're offered vampirism. You get to live forever, but you can never see the sun again. Do you take the immortality?
Nah, living forever seems to be a real drag. I mean, how many truly happy vampires are there? Plus, people are really obsessed with killing vampires, so eventually I'd lose the immortality, and for what? Years of no sun? Sounds like a raw deal to me.
4. Giligan battles the skipper in a no holds barred death match. Who do you envision winning this bout?
Gilligan will definitely win by accident. I mean, think about the show! He was always coming out on top in the end!!
5. Is intelligent design totally full of crap, or is there something to it?
I think the only thing to it is the value being assigned to it. I like to think that we all came from a single cell in the sea. I don't really care how it got there because it's either gross (ew, slime) or polarizingly charged (religion).
Play along if you'd like! You know the drill, comment to be asked or leave 5 questions in the comments that I will answer.

* Post three official IMDB "Plot Keywords" for these 10 picks.
* Have your friends guess the movie titles.
1. Milwaukee, Wisconsin / nativity play / title spoken by character
2. fire escape / broken engagement / crime boss
3. vulgarity / harness / head in toilet
4. animal birth / farm / survival
5. Dwarfism / unplanned pregnancy / twins

...And, I watch a lot of movies that have drugs as a plot keyword... Also, a surprising number of urination scenes, whatever the fuck that means. I mean, I know what it means, but what does it say about me?

1 - Tell you why I friended you. (If you're on my f-list, that is.)
2 - Associate you with something - a song, a colour, a photo, etc. (I removed fandom and sexual position because 1, I don't know nothing about fandoms and 2, uh, unless you're Pie, I try not to associate my friends with sexual positions... except for that one time when I imagined one of you... HA!)
3 - Tell you something I like about you.
4 - Tell you a memory I have of you.
5 - Associate you with a character/pairing.
6 - Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
7 - Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
8 - In return, you must post this in your LJ.

ETA: and somehow, between creating this and then having lunch, i've freakin' forgotten my original username and password. Actually, I haven't forgotten it, the interface just won't accept it, which pisses me off, but guess what--it's just a freakin' meme.
Anyway, if you take it and you want to know the answers to any you got wrong, comment and I'll respond eventually.
Twelve-liners
Dec. 9th, 2006 01:29 pmThat first entry of each month for the last year meme...
1. We're sort of on the same page this year as we were exactly one year ago... Except, this time it's better.
2. A house without windows is a cold place to be in February.
3. In keeping with tradition (because we know it's not my religion), I'm giving up something for Lent this year.
4. The yard work has been done.
5. I'm just about settled in my new branch--I didn't waste much time.
6. Give my friend Sam(slockwoo), the girl who is kicking ovarian cancer in the ASS, some birthday loving!!!
7. Please think good thoughts for us these next few days.
8. Some passive-aggressive reprimanding: "Everyone takes only a 45 minute lunch, unless you come in earlier."
9. I have available one portable air conditioning unit, Delonghi Pinguino Model PAC L90.
10. Hershey was fun.
11. mouth partly opened, a breathless kiss.
12. Happiest day to my bike-riding, fiber-spinning, butt-kicking, joke-getting, snark-festing, and all-in-all great friendpurlewe.

purlewe.The Wishlist
Dec. 6th, 2006 04:10 pmI did this last year, and to update you all on wishes granted, ( here's the current status... )
Now, for this year's list...
Step One
- Make a post to your LJ with a list of ten holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and interest-related ("I'd love a Julie Andrews icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for new Playmobil pirates") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
- Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ, or link to this post so that the holiday joy will spread.
Step Two
- Surf around your LJ to see who has posted a list. And now here's the important part:
- If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.
- You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy.
- There are no guarantees with this project, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
( And the list is here... )
