This again; sure what the hell.
Oct. 22nd, 2007 01:03 pmComment on this post. I'll choose seven userpics from your profile andyou'll reply here (or you know, your own journal, whichever),explaining what they mean and why you're using them.
tobysionann picked the following:
nine naked men - This is from a short called "A Heap of Trouble." I'd recommend trying to find it on Atomfilms or Youtube, it's pretty funny. Basically, as the icon pretty much conveys, a line of nine men march through a suburban neighborhood completely naked except for their shoes, singing "nine naked men just walking down the road/ would cause a heap of trouble for all concerned." Mayhem ensues. I use the icon mostly for snark or mischief posts.
still life with yoda - this was from a picture I took during one of our New Years Eve celebrations at Quadtower in Amherst. I really liked the composition of stuff on the coffee table, with the candle and the Jones soda and the Yoda doll knocked over and the bag of candy that made us all kinda sick in the background. I use it for thinky i-dont-really-have-an-icon-that-fits posts.
sweeties - this is the only extant picture of me with both
morlock and
sundart.
inle_rah took it at Haven when all of us were there for our respective birthdays in... 2004? jesus, that was a while ago, wasn't it.
Valentino - My dumb ginger boyfriend in his natural habitat. Aka a laundry basket. The cat loves enclosed spaces. He'll sit underneath an upside down laundry basket and purr for hours. But he'll sit in empty boxes, baskets or anything only a little bigger than he is. Lately we've been finding him in the little piece of furniture we keep towels in, which is about the size of a good sized box. Use it for cat and/or cuteness related posts.
bad mutha - I was a groomswoman MANLY CHICK at
morlock's wedding. And I looked so damn good in a tux that I needed to immortalize the moment with an icon and the Samuel L Jackson assessment of self. Need to find another occasion to wear one soon. That was way too sexy to not do again. Use it for "yeah I'm awesome" posts.
Smith Fountain - I forget what the actual name of the fountain is at Smith, but it's the only one there, so Smith Fountain it is. It's a very pretty place to go sit and think or chill out, provided you don't go just as class is letting out in the Science quad, which it's right next to. This was taken in the early fall, when I was working on an unrelated photo project of
sundart up at Smith, I took this picture cause I thought the reflection looked neat. I use the icon for quiet contemplative posts.
lorem ipsum - From lipsum.com: "Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged." Yeah, essentially it's totally fake Latin and doesn't actually say anything. I made the icon by generating a paragraph of sample text and feeding it to minifesto. Mostly used to completely confuddle classics majors or to comment on work, since I use Lorem Ipsum as text filler when I don't have copy for a page yet.
I like this game. Someone give me more icons to explain.
