Probably more mortified
Jun. 13th, 2008 11:09 amIf you read this, if your eyes are passing over this right now, even if we don't speak often, please post a comment with a memory of you and me. It can be anything you want -- good or bad. When you're finished, post this little paragraph on your blog and be surprised (or mortified) about what people remember about you.

Ten first lines from my iTunes playlist right now. Guess the songs. Bonus points for guessing the artist and album, or guessing the version that I have (if it's been covered), where applicable. Play fair now, no Googling.
All these songs I have are the originals. The quite interesting question is what all these songs have in common (at least two things they have in common, really).
1. Coo, coo, I just want you.
2. When are you gonna come down?
3. Hey baby, what you gonna do when the lights go up on you?
4. Take off your hat, kick off your shoes.
5. A small jean genie snuck off to the city.
6. I am your main man if you're looking for trouble.
7. When you were young and your heart was an open book.
8. Look out, look out, your Mama will shout.
9. I won't laugh at you when you boo-hoo-hoo.
10. Look out! Mama let me out on a Saturday night...

Meme going around the filkers on LJ: 259 songs have been nominated for a Pegasus Award — how many have you heard/sung along to/sung?
maverick_weirdo is to blame for the initial concept.
If you have heard the song put it in Italics.
If you have sung along to it in public (or at least the chorus) put it in Underline.
If you have sung it (in public, all the words, with people looking at you) put it in Bold.
( And here we go... )

Another Myers-Briggs
Mar. 14th, 2008 12:04 pmYou Are An INTP |
![]() The Thinker You are analytical and logical - and on a quest to learn everything you can. Smart and complex, you always love a new intellectual challenge. Your biggest pet peeve is people who slow you down with trivial chit chat. A quiet maverick, you tend to ignore rules and authority whenever you feel like it. In love, you are an easy person to fall for. But not an easy person to stay in love with. Although you are quite flexible, you often come off as aloof or argumentative. At work, you are both a logical and creative thinker. You are great at solving problems. You would make an excellent mathematician, programmer, or professor. How you see yourself: Creative, fair, and tough-minded When other people don't get you, they see you as: arrogant, cold, and robotic |
Generally, I tend to fluctuate between an INTP and an INTJ dependng on mood.
