Comment and I will give you 3 interests on your list, and 3 icons, for you to explain.

This one is probably obvious to about half my flist. The half that doesn't know the Gundam Wing fandom, on the other hand, is probably most confused. Most of the male characters (and some of the females) have a name that corresponds to a number. Two is my favourite character, Duo. H is Hilde, a woman he spends several episodes with and appears to be living with at one point. I think they would be cute together. This is a very lonely pairing to ship, incidently, because the fandom is rather dominated by 1x2. I don't particularly like Heero. It kinda sucks to be a Duo fan when you just don't feel 1x2. :p

Ewoks eating timbits

Well, I like Ewoks. I like Timbits. (Donut holes from Tim Hortons :p) This phrase actually originated as the silly option on a poll by AT_ST_DRIVER in Atlantic Canada General over at the JC. Back when the JC was cool and ACG was a blast. :p

Marion Zimmer Bradley

I'd honestly forgotten I still had her listed as an interest. :p I used to be a big Darkover fan when I was younger. I tried to read The Mists of Avalon this year though, and I came to the conclusion that I probably would have enjoyed it in high school, but now all I could notice was that she was trying too hard to Make Her Point. (Though Vicki tells me the book does get better when they actually get into the Arthurian myth instead of the setup)

Icons



This is one of my family's cats. His name is Wes, because he was the little troublemaker who was always trying to get out of the basket when he was a kitten. He likes to live up to his name, hence "Delicious chaos". :p



Oh, Han/Leia, how I love you so. The text is from "The More You Ruv Someone" from Avenue Q, which is totally Han and Leia's song. It opens with "The more you love someone, the more you want to kill them." The verse the text actually comes from is "And when you find someone you wanting most to kill him. You go and find him. ANd you get him. And you no kill him. 'Cause chance is good he is your love."



obaona made this for me in one of those memes where they make an icon based on your interests. The phrase "procrastinatable" is, like many things, a joke between me and Tess. Tess was offering to send me some sort of shiny thing when I was busy with school, and I said "Ooh! More procrastinatables!" Procrastinatables are thus any shiny thing used to procrastinate because they're more fun. :p

Seriously that's your view on "Mists of Avalon"? I've read it 3 times and didn't find it at all preachy. I adored it. Sorry it didn't work for you.

[yubsie]

Well, it's my view on the first hundred or so pages before the story is even about the narrator. Apparently the semester started before I actually got to the good part. It was quite saddening, because I had been wanting to read the book for quite a long time. I might give it another try when I'm not trying to squeeze a year's worth of pleasure reading into two weeks to see if the Point becomes less invasive when the story actually gets moving.

[helplessdancer.livejournal.com]

Hmm. I've been thinking about trying to read Mist of Avalon lately actually. :p

Also. *comments* :P

[yubsie]

Make sure you do so when you actually have TIME. :p There's a lot of setup to get through and I didn't make it through before January hit. :p

And because I need three...

[chibifrieza.livejournal.com]

My list of interests is neither exhaustive nor mystifying, but this is a comment.

You know, that Avenue Q song really reminds me of Shampoo from Ranma 1/2. :P

[yubsie]

Let's see...

swords
madrigals
counterpoint (Yep, reaching. :p)

[squallhighwind.livejournal.com]

Me next! me next!

[yubsie]

Your interest list is short! :p (I also know it all :p)

Transformers
Megaman
Kingdom Hearts


Heh, this is half the icons. :p

[squallhighwind.livejournal.com]

On it! Itll waste time for waiting on 99.9% DL's that JUST WONT FINISH!

[yubsie]

That last 0.1% of a torrent is usually the toughest. :p

[squallhighwind.livejournal.com]

Especially when all your seeders vanish and youre left with some 20% done punk who keeps vanishing!

Yeah...this guy has had me hanging on for at least an hour now :P can you tell?

I comment, but can promise to explain nothing. *distracts you with icon*

[chibifrieza.livejournal.com]

That icon is really gloriously distracting. May I steal it?

[seryan.livejournal.com]

Sure, go ahead. Credits are somewhere in the info.

oooooooooooooooh iiiiiiiiiiiiiicoooooooooooooooooon

hailing the space prawn
manet
bujold

Hmm, that's totally half your icons. So I shall pick the ones that amuse me, even if they need no explanation. :p

[seryan.livejournal.com]

hailing the space prawn
The Space Prawn was the nickname that I gave to the Andorian-telepath-remote-controlled Romulan ship from Enterprise. It looked exactly like a giant prawn, it was in space, and I was punchy. IIRC, actually, you were the one who dared me to put it in my interests, but I'm too lazy to actually go back and search.

manet
I like the Impressionists.

bujold
Lois McMaster Bujold is the full name. She's the author of the Vorkosigan Saga, among other things, and her work is thoroughly awesome.

The first icon I got because the expression of the cat amuses me. The second icon I got for much the same reason. As for the third...do I really need to explain why i snapped up an icon with a shirtless George Takei? :P

[yubsie]

Hmm, that DOES sound like something I would dare someone to do. It is sufficiently silly. :p

[sarahetc.livejournal.com]

I'll comment too, if you're still playing.
