Happy Meme

[adric]

Leave a comment and I will...
1. Tell you why I friended you.
2. Associate you with something - fandom, a song, a color, a photo, a word etc.
3. Tell you something I like about you.
4. Tell you a memory I have of you.
5. Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
6. Tell you my favorite user pic of yours.
7. In return, you must post this in your LJ.

And if I don't actually know you well enough, I'll make something up!
I was meme'd by esponasr here.

Later: 0700: Okay all done answering question about people I either don't know at all, or don't know in their current incarnations. That was tricky.

Wed morning: Right, did three more.

Well, having met you 7 years ago today when you asked for the table I was sitting at, this will be interesting to see what you list for answers to these questions. (What was the name of that game we ended up playing that night?)

[adric]

Kill Dr Lucky? Or was it just Clue that night?

1. The web journaling thing was all the rage amongst the cool kids at innovox, but really it was all vidicon's fault. The second go around would probably be because we were friends, and I was sleeping on your couch sometimes.
2. Cheese curds, Zeep Cooduh, Monotheist bodice rippers shelved in close proximity to Trek novels
3. Your stubbornness and generosity, particularly when it comes to taking care of your people.
4. Wow. Well for public consumption then: You teaching sophocles to drive despite both of you and your poor car.
5. Still not back here in @tlanta yet? *chuckle* Why did/do you hang out with us young'uns? (I know some answers, but still, I think this fulfills the item)
6. Of what you have up now, it's easily Opus ... of older ones I can't really think of it now

Re: suri

[suri.livejournal.com]

I couldn't stop laughing -- monotheist bodice rippers is such a well put way of mentioning those books.

I had totally tuned out teaching him to drive. and to think I was totally uninsured for any damage he would have done.

And it's not so much me hanging out with you young uns, it's ya'll learning something from aged ole me. Or maybe I had something to learn from each of you?

[arie]

Okay I think I'm bored enough to do this.

1. Well, when I found out you were on LJ I considered briefly and then added you anyway...
2. Disney $noun. Previous life, a invisible all powerful angstrom for obvious reasons.
3. Fun! You seem to have lots of fun, and find humour in that which might not be funny otherwise. Maybe it's just your writeups :)
4. Editing for public consumption here as well: WaffleHouse in Kennesaw just after your (first) wedding, Seeing you for the first time in years in innovox of all places, LJAT, and most recently, when you dropped by for help with appeasing the angry Mac gods.
5. Not why, of course, but how? Maybe a few tiny whys, but definitely the hows.
6. The "nuts!" kitty or any of the collection of vaguely disturbing vampy ones

Re: arie

[arie]

4. man... I'm just going to have to mail you those discs back. I think it's about time that I just admitted I have a hard time organizing my schedule in such a way that I have free time for things like meeting up with friends.

5. You've done that thing again where you're being really specific only in a totally vague way and I can't figure out what you're talking about. :P Email me a less vague frame of reference for the question and I'll answer it that way?

6. I love the vampy ones, but rarely have reason to use them. They're all from Blood Rayne.

Re: arie

[adric]

4. Heh, sure. I got through the Leo upgradereinstall without them, or I'd have show up at your door ;) Post is fine.

5. Indeed. Still, the function of this meme is not to get answers to any of these questions. I will say that I remain slightly awed by your accomplishments in the field of getting through bad shit and getting on with life.

6. Of course they are, and not the comedic triumph that is the movie version. And, well, you're married, so uh .. :P

[sophocles.livejournal.com]

Oh right that was supposed to be the other way around. Go for it

sophocles

[adric]

1. Since I dragged you into this only three months after I started ... or blame innovox. And punch Jeff for me, eh?
2. The Magnum Opus?, bad one act plays
3. Your sense of humour, your stories
4. Banging bokken together as the sun rose at the house near Emory
5. The loud MacCloud, really? What are you going to do with yourself?
6. The blue shades one you don't seem to have up anymore?

[nirol.livejournal.com]

OK, I'll bite.

[adric]

OK, I'll bite. Really? We'll have to get back to that later. :P Meantime, meme:

1. Likely because sotto_voce told me to. We might have even met by then.
2. Frogs! Generally being a music afficianado (although what kind I dunno)
3. You've been a good friend to SV through all of this nonsense, and always been nice to me.
4. Being embarrassed by my poor word choice at SELF, Being embarrassed by your sister over chinese food, Scaring sotto_voce with your breasts...
5. Why haven't you moved back in yet? Um ... I don't know much about your interpersonal hobbies and haven't asked.
6. Either the classic tree frog or the one with the headphones

[jk1258203.livejournal.com]

1. Ran into you somewhere on LJ and you seemed interesting. I don't recall where right now, unfortunately (nirol?). Oh, and your userinfo blurb.
2. Inappropriate uses of chocolate at table? Unicorns?
3. Your stentorian oration and magnificent stature. No?
4. You squicking at inappropriate use of chocolate, near the oasis
5. Uh .. it hardly seems fair for me to ask you which one you are ... What is the meaning and purpose of life?
6. Oh, the default smartass one by far of those you have up.

[kellinator.livejournal.com]

Oh, what the hell. I want to see what you'll say.

kellinator

[adric]

.. that does seem a common motivation for volunteering for this.

1. It think we were going out, or something? I was definitely sleeping at the Party House once a week or so? Anyway, it was ptwarhol's fault, and we're even on that.
2. You sardonic wit. You asking "Am I being too annoying?" :D
3. Posts about stupid library patrons.
4. ibid. Also, once again for public consumption, hmm, shopping for underwear at Target, and of course your car accident near the Party House (my mom still remembers that)
5. What the hell happened with school?
6. Oh, I adore the "mean drunk Elmo" one. You should all go review the entire set

1. No memory. Likely I helped drag you into this.
2. Heinlein overdosage. Freebirthers. Various mad houses.
3. Our commonality. Your flippant (yet carefully planned) disregard of what others think about your careful choices.
4. You walking to my mom's house, and me doing the same. Ow. Your wedding (more the planning than the ceremony and that gottverdammt cake melting in the van ;)
5. Just some books I haven't bothered to come get. Unless you are finally working on your Spanish? :D
6. OMG, the diddybjork. Followed closely by the suspicious concentric circles.

[parentingtheriot]

2. Whedon :) Also costumery, running.
3. Intelligent, witty, sexy, accomplished, cf 5
4. Oh, how about our first luncheon: sipping iced sprite in the bitter cold on the sidewalk tables, trying to eat a gyro without making a huge mess and without letting the napkins blow away, trying to practice adult small talk
5. Why do you talk to me?
6. Oh, the corset one is yummy, but the default really does look like you :)

Re: slvr_starre

[slvr-starre.livejournal.com]

3) Thank you :)
4) I actually had forgotten this was our first lunch. We were crazy! But the small talk did not go so bad.
5) 'Cause I like you and find you interesting (in a good way). And you talked to me first. I almost always answer (when people send me messages) and have not found a reason to stop talking with you ;) And, I've even made new friends because of you.
6) :)
