Remember that Band meme that was going around? The one where you'd click on "Random Article" on Wikipedia and the name of the article that came up was the name of your band, the last four words from a random quote was the title of your album, and a random picture off Flickr was your album art?
Well...I never really stopped doing it. I found it way too entertaining. When I was bored I would click on the three sites and make little CD covers and leave them sprinkled around my desk top. I'm no graphic designer and my fonts and skills are rather lacking in most places, but I thought it was fun so I did it.
well I've apparently come up with a whole shit load of fake Bands. I wish some of them were real and I'm happy quite a number of them are fake.
I made a new journal and started posting them over there so I can visit whenever I want to. Go take a gander if you feel so inclined: 12kinkyfingers
and yeah, sometimes I cheat on the meme. When I'm going through Wikipedia articles if the one that comes up is something like "John Smith" I tend to just hit "random article" again until I get something that's not someone's first name, or something in another language. I also don't always take the 3rd picture from the Flickr page. Sometimes a different picture jumps out at me so I snag that one. That's just me, snubbing my nose in the face of the meme authority.
I'm crazy that way. |

So this is a meme sorta kinda. Someone in a group I'm in posted it, but the version they had was one of those "put your iTunes on shuffle" sorta thing where all the songs are random. They were also rather young so the subjects were geared more towards young people. I changed a few of them and chose all my own songs.
So this is a rather basic one. It's the movie of your life and you're choosing the soundtrack. The movie is broken down into scenes each portraying a pivotal point or period in your life.scene One - Opening Credits - Here it goes Again - OkGo scene Two - Waking Up - Bittersweet Symphony - The Verve scene Three - First Date - Big Time Sensuality - Bjork scene Four - Seduction - Meet Me In The Red Room - ? scene Five - Sex - Get Me Off - Basement Jaxx scene Six - Falling In Love - Paperweight - Joshua Radin & Schuyler Fisk scene Seven - Heartbreak - I Can't Make You Love Me - Bonnie Raitt scene Eight - Breaking Up - Against All Odds - The Postal Service scene Nine - Life is Good - It's Getting Better - Cass Elliott scene Ten - Driving - Passenger Seat - Death Cab For Cutie scene Eleven - Flashback - With or Without You - Scala scene Twelve - Reconciliation - Is This Love? - Clap Your Hands Say Yeah scene Thirteen - Birth Of A Child - With Or Without You - Alex Gibson scene Fourteen - A Wedding - The Luckiest - Ben Folds scene Fifteen - A Death - Breathless - Emm Gryner scene Sixteen - Funeral Song - Amie - Damien Rice scene Seventeen - The Future - Somersault - Zero7 scene Eighteen - End Credits - Vidvrar Vel Till Loftarasa - Sigur Ros You can download this album HERE. It's a big file (about 100megs) so hit download and then go make yourself a sandwich or something.
PS- if you do indeed download this, track number 17: "Somersault" by Zero7 was mislabled in my iTunes when I was transferring everything. The title of the song is actually: "The Space Between". Just thought I'd mention it. |

If you respond to this, I will blow you.

well that's a big old lie, but....come on here folks. Every time I make these crappy posts none of yall come through for me. I feel totally let down. I mean the vast majority of the people on the internet either hate me or think that I hate them and yet I get nothing juicy or scandalous when it comes down to things like this. I mean, hell, bobo_dreams gets like 90 responses!!! (granted everything single one is "OMG! You're soooo talented I want to blow you!" or "OMG You're so hot I want to blow you!"but whatever. )
I have semi-interesting people who come by and read my journal...I think...work for me here people. Shine some light on my otherwise overcast-with-a-chance-of-snow-flurries kinda day.
The name of the game is Anonymity
What you have to do is leave me a comment to this post anonymously and say any old thing that you want...a secret, a joy, something you hate, something you like, something you hate about me, something you like about me, something you've always wanted to tell me, but haven't, a recipe, a place where I can find secret & steamy pictures of you in tight undies, etc...write anything that you want to. Just make it ANONYMOUS.
I will even go so far as to go and turn off the thingy that logs the IP addresses of people who post anonymously so if you leave me a comment I won't go "hey, that was Jim-Bob because I can see his IP address!"
See how awesome of an opportunity this is???? SO AWESOME!!!
If you need some help as to what you should say...go and take a gander at skacubby's journal where he posted this nifty thing as a meme.
I'll make you enchiladas. I promise. |

The first five people to respond to this post, will get some form of art, by me, about them. I make no guarantees about quality or type, but I assure you that I will give it good effort and that the art will be individual to you, so if you get a mixed CD or some sort of painting doodle, yours is the only one like it.
The only catch, of course; as with most memes, if you sign up, you have to put this in your own journal as well.
well...maybe not personalized art...but you'll get something. |

 I've never seen or participated in this one before so let's give it a go:
This Meme is entitled TRUTH or RUMOR and what you do is: 1.) You ask your friends, or anyone who reads your journal to post something that they have heard about you in your comments section. 2.) You then have to respond with whether it is the TRUTH or a RUMOR (any additional explaination is up to you). 3.) If you participate, post this in your own journal to see what people are wondering about you.
This could be interesting if people actually say things. You can post anonymously if you'd like. Comment screening is off
bring it on. |

So people have been posting this and I decided to use up my last 3 minutes of work to post it in my journal as well. Let's hope this is entertaining.
If you wanna fuck me, do be nice and let me know.
Supposedly there's at least 1 person on your LiveJournal that wants to date you or sleep with you so lets play a fun little game called: "FRIENDS w/BENEFITS"
The rules are simple...
-If you want to date me send me a msg saying: "I'm yours" -If you just want to sleep with me and stay friends say::"I'd hit it" -If you just want to have hours of crazy fucking, friendship-be-damned say:"I just want it in me/I just want to stick it in"
Don't worry, responses will be screened :)
Feel free to repost this in your journal if you find yourself so terribly bored that you want to see if people who's lives you only read about really wanna "stick it in." |

March has apparently been a month of questions & answers. I, however, have been far too busy doing nothing to participate. So on this very last day of the month I throw my hat into the ring...
Is there, for some reason, a question in the back of your mind that you'd like to ask me? A question that you'd like a completely honest or indepth answer to? Well here is your chance comrades! Ask me any question and I shall answer you honestly.
I'll answer anything so feel free to ask anything. If you don't want to leave a comment...send me an email OR, through the wonders of technology, send me a text message! Make it anonymous if you want, I'll still answer it.
if people actually ask questions, this could be rather intersting. If they don't then...whatevs. |

It's fun to take abstract terms and see what they mean to everyone, because everyone is different (obviously). So here's a little meme stolen from bobo_dreams.
Everyone should take a picture; be it from your phone, your camera, or whatever (draw it if you have to) but do something....just show what home is. Whatever your definition is, post it in your journal.
