Meme!

[enismirdal]

It's the extrememly wonderful meme peeeeeeet invented
1) Alert me to yourself.
2) I will pick five people on your flist and ask some questions about them. But they will be good questions like "if jekesta were made of peanut butter, would she be crunchy or smooth?"
3) You then bung this new meme in your LJ, thus making peeeeeeet a famous meme creator.

I will ETA with the questions other people have asked me :)

ETA: Questionses!

Questions from claruscuro:

With which character from fiction would e_p_kitty make the cutest couple?

I think she would do a wonderful job at making Dracula cute, actually. Well, she would probably put him in a corset and make him into a devastating sex-god, but that is cute, surely? I am sure within a year or two of going out he would be drinking Scotch and watching bad movies on the sofa with her :D

Which emoticon is most cartesiandaemon?

I'm going to go with :->, which on Yahoo IM looks like: *grins*

If filius_lupi were a cocktail, what would the ingredients be?

As someone who really knows surprisingly little about cocktails, I am not best qualified to answer that. However, I think he would do well as an Eggnog spiced up with Absinthe and possibly a layer of good English Ale on the top. :)

Which Shakespeare play should be re-written for fishyz9_?

Romeo and Juliet! It needs to be rewritten for her with a happy, fluffy ending in which Romeo and Juliet survive and get married at a wonderful romantic fairytale feast, and although their families hated each other before, after coming so close to losing their lovely children they decide that it would be evil of them to get in the way of love, and so everyone lives happily ever after.

melime: Caesar or Brutus?

Caesar. She is much too nice to be Brutus. Well, also much too nice to be Caesar, but I can say with certainty that she has never hidden a dagger in her toga and then stabbed someone in front of lots of witnesses.

But she's also much cuter than him and doesn't have that vague can't-quite-pin-it resemblance to Patrick Stewart.

Questions from ilanin:

1) Which chess piece would chess be, and why? Which colour?

I think she would be black, simply because ebony seems more her style than ivory, and I think she'd be a Rook. This sounds intrinsically a bit geeky, and is understated but useful and good. Additionally, like the Rook, many people call her by the wrong name.

I am, however, unsure about whether she becomes a Queen when turned upside down.

2) If ford_of_bruinen were to overthrow the government and establish a tyrannical dictatorship, what would her next action be?

I think her first act would be to make stupid people illegal. After that, I suspect a great bonfire of Monster Munch and Jaffa Cakes. I also suspect she would introduce two new public holidays: National Elf Killing Day and National Fingon Appreciation Day.

3)senji left his time machine in his other jacket. What caused him to forget this?

Well, this is a long and complicated story. You see, he went to work the other week but, upon arrival, realised that he had left his sandwiches as home. Rather than going and buying something, he thought he might as well borrow the office's time machine and go back in time in order to remind himself to pack them.

Unfortunately, when he arrived in the past and opened the fridge to remove the sandwiches, he accidentally put the office time machine in the fridge and promptly forgot about this. So in order to get back to work (because, of course, we currently have two Senjis wandering around the house), he had to use his own time machine. Which is all very well and good, but this was currently being used to hold up the TV aerial as it happened to be just the right height.

He climbed up there to retrieve it, being the daring individual that he is, and set off back to work. But alas! Spinning through time and space he collided and passed right through a Concorde jet that was flying supersonic through the skies. This caused the time machine to split into two, one of which returned him to the office as planned, but instantly combusted on arrival, but the other of which mysteriously rematerialised in his Other Jacket.

claroscuro later found the time machine in his jacket pocket (when she picked up his jacket and wondered why it was so light), and did tell him about it. However, Senji accidetally put the office Time Machine in with the chips and ate it for dinner, and this has, through some miracle of Physics that causes Time Machines to counterbalance one another, caused him to forget about the very existence of Time Machines.

4) Which fantasy cliche reminds you most of tienelle?

Oooh, this is a hard question! (Mostly cos I don't know a cliché when it hits me in the face half the time!)

I think I'm going to go with: the small, cute and fluffy supporting character who bounces along through the story giving moral support to the uber-tragic hero of the piece and finishes the story with some very profound and very true wisecrack.

5) When the smoke cleared, only emperor was left standing. What was his secret?

He encased himself in a protective shield of spleen-fu that can shield against all manner of exploding livestock!

[enismirdal.livejournal.com]

*not impressed with LJ's rendering of "pi" symbol*

[rochvelleth.livejournal.com]

Is that Modern Greek font? It looks the way 'pi' is rendered in Modern Greek texts, as opposed to the standard curly version used in ancient text books or maths.

[enismirdal.livejournal.com]

It probably is. I grabbed it off Character Map, which was in TNR at the time so everything looks curly. I just scrolled down till I saw the Greek alphabet and then went across till there was a letter "pi".

Bad Modern Greek. Not nearly as pretty!

[rochvelleth.livejournal.com]

They also messed up the vowel system by making the majority of vowels sound like 'eeee', even though they still use all the different signs to represent them. Silly Modern Greek!

[ilanin.livejournal.com]

1. If one were to put ophe1ia_in_red in the wash with denim jeans, would she turn purple?

I strongly suspect she would turn purple around the time you started attempting to stuff her into the washing machine...

2. What flavour of ice cream reminds you most of inner_muppet?

Hmmm. Mint choc chip, I think, in that it throws you a curveball (or a chocolate chip where you weren't expecting one) when you think you've got used to it....

3. How many points is vitriol_ worth in Theophrastus?

Well, if you can manage to get vitriol_ to stay in your hand long enough to play him, and also then manage to deal with there being a largeish human on your table and play around this, you deserve all the points you can get.

4. In which world capital city is foreverdirt most likely to be seen wrestling an Oompa Loompa?

This sounds eminently like the sort of leisure activity she'd enjoy, really, so I suppose it just depends on where she can find one, or where she can get to. I suspect it'd have to be London, on accessibility grounds.

5. On a scale of 1 to π, how would you rate feanelwa's skill at decorating Senate House with yellow star shapes cut out of tissue paper?

The inside, or the outside? Also, with or without a stepladder, 'cos she's short, and would find it difficult to decorate much without some kind of aid to reach the upper bits. Still, she has a reasonably refined artistic sense and understands stuff, and would also enjoy this sort of activity, so I think it's probably about e.

[rochvelleth.livejournal.com]

Also... Alert! :)

[enismirdal.livejournal.com]

It's fairly straightforward. If you post here saying "I exist and would like to play" or something like that, then I read your friends list, select 5 people off it, and ask you a weird question about each one. Which you answer either here or on your own LJ.

Then you post the meme and ask other people questions about their friends!

[ilanin.livejournal.com]

But you also must credit peeeeeeet because he wants to be a famous meme creator.

[senji.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure that being a famous meme creator is final wisdom.

[ilanin.livejournal.com]

But peeeeeeet never said he wanted to achieve final wisdom, just that he wanted to be a famous meme creator. Although I am beginning to feel a bit sorry for jekesta.

[enismirdal.livejournal.com]

OK!

1. If cristal was a cake, what kind would she be?
2. If you had a stick of bubblegum, a biro and carrot, which would you be most likely to give to tigersmeleth_86?
3. You and say_aye are on a plane. The pilots and all the cabin crew decide to quit half way through the journey, leaving you and her to fly it. You have enough fuel to go anywhere. Where would you fly with say_aye?
4. If the_faery_queen owned a factory, what would it make?
5. Which Elf do you think the_gwyllion most resembles?

A biro is a pen, generally of the cheap plastic ballpoint variety.

4) Which fantasy cliche reminds you most of [info]tienelle?

(Saw your interests list and couldn't resist relating one or two of the questions to it!!)

[claroscuro.livejournal.com]

1. Which of the Dragonriders of Pern is most like sphyg and why?
F'nor. Doesn't say a lot (though often enough), and is definitely under appreciated...

2. Why does atreic have a purple wormhole in her new living room?
For storing things! It leads to an extradimensional storage space buried in the depths of an alien world's core.

3. meirion: Herald or Companion?
Herald.

4. You supply simont with a large quantity of toothpaste and a mirror to write on with it. What does he write?
A shiny new game!

5. How many toothycats does it take to change a lightbulb? Two.

(Fun!)

[ilanin.livejournal.com]

Is that two toothycats, and thus four people, or just both of toothycat?

[claroscuro.livejournal.com]

Just them both :-)
