Wallpaper meme

Ganked from [info]katriona_lou 's journal.


Rules:
01. Anyone who looks at this entry has to post this meme and their current wallpaper at their LiveJournal.
02. Explain in five sentences why you're using that wallpaper!
03. Don't change your wallpaper before doing this! The point is to see what you had on!





I love Clive Anderson!
He is a balding punning no-necked sex god!
I made this wallpaper MYSELF and am very proud, not being technologically inclined usually (as evidenced by fact I made it the wrong size for my monitor and had to tile it!)

That's three sentences, and all that is required, I think :)

Stolen from various people, most lately [info]madeluxx , as tis an awesome meme, even for such a non-graphics-ite (graphite?) as I.
And man was it difficult - only ten?! Once I got started, I found dozens I wanted to use. Still, it was wonderful and nostalgic looking back through the old files.

• Post ten of any pictures currently on your hard drive that you think are self-expressive.
• No captions. It must be like we're speaking with images and we have to interpret your visual language just like we have to interpret your words.
• They must ALREADY be on your hard drive - no googling or flickr! They have to have been saved to your folders sometime in the past. They must be something you've saved there because it resonated with you for some reason.
• You do NOT have to answer any questions about any of your pictures if you don't want to. You can make them as mysterious as you like. Or you can explain them away as much as you like.
picture yourself... )

Random sentence generator

Seeking an inspiring word or two to fic with, I stumbled across a 'random sentence generator'. On the fourth go, it gave me THIS:

The muttering debugger poles the blown monster.

Call me childish if you will...but c'mon...
I LOL'd.

Anyone who wishes to write something involving this sentence will earn my undying gratitude.

Isky has a fic journal!

Because it seems all the cool kids are doing it, and don't say I don't know how to tailgate a bandwagon and other mixed metaphors.
And because I'd like a repository for all my fanfiction, so I can just use this for the occcasional random RL rant or fandom wank.
And mainly because I can.

It will be entirely friends-locked, but please do come over and check it out, friend me and I'll very happily return the favour.

Hope to see you there! :D

LiveJournal is a poopy-head.  I've tried TWICE to produce a picspam and twice it has denied me - once not letting me post the pics at all, the second time not putting anything under a cut. So my apologies to anyone whose FList was temporarily flooded with pictures of one Mr Clive Anderson!

I'd post some fic, instead, but chances are the cut won't work for that, either. I may try later.

Anyway, I'm off to see my family for Easter for a bit, hope everyone is well, catch y'all on the flip side. :D

What time is it? Meme Time!

I got tagged by [info]fantasy_bubbles
and this being a very fun meme, I thought why not! :D
There have been so many fandoms over the years that this could take a while, but I'll just trust that most people don't know about most fandoms.

Name a fandom you know I know and I'll tell you:

1. The first character I first fell in love with
2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now
3. The character everyone else loves that I don't
4. The character I love that everyone else hates
5. The character I used to love but don't any longer
6. The character I would shag any time
7. The character I'd want to be like
8. The character I'd slap
9. A pairing that I love
10. A pairing that I despise

Howdy.

Since I hardly ever use my journal these days, being sadly not a very frequent LJ flyer, and since I have a LOT of fic stagnating on my computer, and lastly since [info]nutellahostage  has opened up her wonderful fic journal, [info]bereftospatulas and I'm a big fat copycatting comments-whore, I have made: A Decision.

Open the golden envelope here... )

Considerations

I write a lot of sub-standard fic which I never post. My cheering squad and unofficial beta Nutellahostage takes it all with good grace and reads and responds with encouragement, for which I love you, hon...BUT I have a lot of unfinished, unacceptable fics.

Here begins a new era in my ficcing.
Finish the good, scrap the bad, try only to write things of substance.

It's time I started posting at communities where I could risk concrit or outright criticism.

Any suggestions on good ficcing practise, and practice, would be much appreciated.

/end of fic!wank.

You may return to your business.

I'm probably going to regret this...;)

Stolen from [info]sess_satan and [info]nutellahostage and another blatant excuse not to work! 

 

1) Make a list of fifteen characters first, and keep it to yourself for the moment. (That way you're not leading the questions asked to fit the characters.)

2) Ask your flist to post questions in the comments.

For example:
'One, Nine and Fifteen are chosen by a prophecy to save the world from Four. Do they succeed?'
'Under what circumstances might Five and Seven fall in love?'
'Which character on the list would you most want on your side in a zombie invasion?'
'What would Two experience in Silent Hill?'
'What Pokémon would Eight have?'
'Write a drabble in which Sixteen and Nineteen FIGHT CRIME.' (...possibly not technically a question.)

3) After your flist has asked enough questions, round them up and answer them using the fifteen characters you selected beforehand, then post them.

 

So, like tight-trousered dancing!Tony “I’m askin’!” (ok, he wasn’t, but that joke was really more to amuse myself than anything else…as you were)

 

Go crazy, it’ll make my life more interesting! (but if you could limit yourself to no more than ten questions that’d probably make my life manageable so be appreciated! :) )

Well I should be working right this second, but this meme is way too fun! And doing it guarantees ( I hope!) that I have some replies to help break up the monotony of work this evening! *grin* And since I only have 28 LJ friends (I know, what a loser, right? ;)) expect some repetition for those of you feel I know well enough to comment on!

 

 

1. There are 30 questions.
2. Answer each question with one name.
3. Next to each number, write only the name of the person who fits.
4. Don't tell the questions to anyone who isn't doing the meme
Comment or PM your email to get the questions, but then you have to do it. :) Nobody be paranoid; these are good things! Or at the very least, meant fondly.

 

 

Hee, that was fun! :D

The answers to all life's little questions... )</p>What? I can pick 2 if I want! :P[Unknown LJ tag]

Sunday 24th August, The Comedy Store, London. 
Line up: Steve Steen, Steve Edis, Richard Vranch, Lee Simpson, Andy Smart, Greg Proops.
 
Sadly due to family commitments this trip was much more a flying visit to London – hell, it was only planned on the Tuesday, and when I say planned I mean impulsively decided upon when I discovered Greg was playing a third date at the Store and Nutella was going!
Right, I’m not sure that I’m going to finish these notes at any kind of a sane hour, so I shall post this first half first and hopefully get the rest up later tonight – somehow I was able to pay much more attention on the second time to the Store, I suspect because I was slightly less obsessed with the fact that Greg Proops was JUST THERE! Although having him kneel like two feet away from me at times during Freeze Tag was still pretty mind-killing! I SO wanted to touch his hair…or any other part of him, really! ;)

ETA: Unlocking this as my second recap of the 24th got a comment from someone I wasn't friends with *shock* which was awesome! Though I'm still at a loss as to how they found it! :)

Riiiight *cracks knuckles*


Practically all the ladies who were present at the Comedy Store on Sunday have written reports already, and stella, all-comes-flooding-back ones at that.  However, I said I’d add my two cents, and finally have got a minute to sit down and write, so here it is – I apologise in advance for the length, incoherence and general mad squee-ness of what is to come.


And with those words: dun dun duuuuuun!...

Date: Sunday 17th August, 2008. 
Weather: Sunshine and showers (so what’s new?)

Destination: London

Colleagues: Nutellahostage, SessSatan, Annabel1984, Athenamsp, liketostopthen, Indybaggins, Astareal02

Mission: To infiltrate the Comedy Store and manage not to die of laughter for two hours while under the intense comedic skills of Steve Frost, Josie Lawrence, Steve Edis, Andy Stuart, Neil Mullarky and Greg Proops.


 

 

 


And the best part of all..?


I get to do it all again on Sunday! :D 



(Pictures pending, watch this space.)

Three Little Words

 Slap.  Ass. Leapfrog.





This is all.

*dies of happiness*


Ok this is not all, because I have to point out how Chip and Jeff really GO for it - it sounds and looks paaaainful (tho in the best possible way! ;) ) whereas Greg - not so much.  Odd, I'd've thought Greg would enjoy a little ass-slapping as much as the next guy...tho apparently not, perhaps because the next guy was Jeff...?

Go watch! Your time is running out!

 I found the most adorable picture today, while trawling through the archives:



Aside from how wonderfully young and cute they all look, being the Greg/Clive OTPer that I am, I squeebled at length over Clive's hand around Greg's arm...he could have put in manfully on the shoulder, but no! (and quiet, all you people shouting that they were posed like that by the photographer! My journal, my (heh) fantasies! :P)

So because I have more time on my hands than strictly wise, I made this. Glory at its crap cuteness! (used Paint and Photoplus - neither fabulous obv, but the best I could come up with!)



Hoorah! :D  *dances away singing 'Greg and Clive, sitting in a tree, K.I.S.S.I.N.G!!'*

Saw this on [info]nutellahostage's journal, laughed a great deal, and swore I would do it when I had the time! Well, apparently, I have the time. Though this won't be a TRUELY accurate representation as my realplayer library recently headsploded and I've been copying my music back into it in a purgatorial task for weeks! But neveryemind, this is what happened...

 I'VE GOT, ONE TICKET TO PARADISE...

Aka, got my ticket to see Greg Proops and the Comedy Store Players on Sunday 17th August 2008! I could not BE more excited!!!!
Caps and exclamation marks all the way!

On a rather unrelated note, I'm crazy-busy at the moment with MA dissertation work I should have done long ago, so sorry if anyone has missed my sparkling wit and conversation around the place. RL does just get in the WAY sometimes, eh?

Och weel, I must go to bed and dream sweet dreams of the ProopMeister. *grin* 

I post this little piece of frivolity to celebrate:

Album cover meme

 Stole this from [info]nutellahostage's journal, it's hella-cool! ;)  

1. http://en.wikipedia.org.wiki/Special:Random 
The first article title is the name of your band.

2. http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.

3. http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
The third picture, nomatter what it is, will be your album cover.

4. Use your graphics program of choice to throw them together, and post it in your own journal.

(I don't know why I can only make the first come out as a link link! Stupid LJ! Or more likely stupid me!)


It came out pretty well, if I do say so myself! But then I had an awesome image and album title to work with. Not quite so sure about the band name...I think we may go through  some 'artistic differences' before we settle on Hockey Federation of the Islamic Republic of Iran.  It's just a little too long and potentially open to political accusations...
