Remember that brilliant meme that was going around last year where Hitler goes off (in subtitles) on a rant about 'insert-fandom-of-your-choice?' I was trying to explain to someone why that was so funny (prompted by Colbert's interview of the EFF) and went looking to see if any of those vids were still on line. I found this:

I sure it won't last long so view quickly. BTW, did anyone save any of those that dealt with SPN or any of the Stargates? I would love to see those again.
Thanks!

You are The Moon
Hope, expectation, Bright promises.
The Moon is a card of magic and mystery - when prominent you know that nothing is as it seems, particularly when it concerns relationships. All logic is thrown out the window.
The Moon is all about visions and illusions, madness, genius and poetry. This is a card that has to do with sleep, and so with both dreams and nightmares. It is a scary card in that it warns that there might be hidden enemies, tricks and falsehoods. But it should also be remembered that this is a card of great creativity, of powerful magic, primal feelings and intuition. You may be going through a time of emotional and mental trial; if you have any past mental problems, you must be vigilant in taking your medication but avoid drugs or alcohol, as abuse of either will cause them irreparable damage. This time however, can also result in great creativity, psychic powers, visions and insight. You can and should trust your intuition.
What Tarot Card are You?

01. Anyone who looks at this entry has to post this meme and their current wallpaper at their LiveJournal.
02. Explain in five sentences why you're using that wallpaper!
03. Don't change your wallpaper before doing this! The point is to see what you had on!
It's Springtime and I wanted something green on the wallpaper. It's a photo I took while walking in Lynn Canyon near Vancouver. I was at up there for a Stargate con and did the sightseeing thing. It makes me happy, peaceful.

Pairings Meme
May. 29th, 2009 09:48 amBecause everyone has already done this:
Name your 15 absolute favorite couples (het/slash/canon/fanon) and ask people to see what trends they notice about your couples. Try to pick different fandoms.
01. Alias Smith and Jones - Heyes and Curry
02. Stargate SG-1 - Jack/Daniel
03. Stargate SG-1 - Daniel/Teal'c
04. Highlander - Methos/Duncan
05. Highlander - Methos/Kronos
06. Forever Knight - LaCroix vs Divia
07. Blake's 7 - Avon/Vila
08. Man From UNCLE - Napoleon/Illya
09. Boston Legal - Denny/Alan
10. The Avengers - John Steed/Emma Peel
11. Star Trek - Spock/McCoy
12. DS9 - Garak/Bashir
13. Brother Cadfael - Cadfael/Hugh Beringar
14. Criminal Minds - Morgan/Reid
15. Wiseguy - Vinnie/Frank
And there are pairings I read but I just don't go gooey inside when I think of them, like John/Rodney, Sam/Dean, Dean/Castiel. And some of the above, I don't want to read sex about but they were just dynamite on the screen together (Emma/John, LaCroix and Divia.) And of course, I picked gleaned twice from two fandoms, but those pairings had such different dynamics.

Are You Dusk or Dawn?
Apr. 19th, 2009 02:37 pm| You Are Dusk |
 You spend most of your energy on play. Work is okay, but the true you emerges after the work day is done. You're an offbeat type that doesn't like rules or schedules. Life's too short to waste at a desk in a cube. Whether you spend your night socializing or working on side projects, you like that your time is yours. |
LOL! No shit, Sherlock!
Turn the frown upside down!
Apr. 18th, 2009 10:51 pmStill plowing through the posts as I also catch up on Tivo. I'm at skip=500 and I find that ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
margec01 has tagged me with the Eight Days of Happy meme. I'm not gonna tag eight friends because as far as I know, you've all already done this.
So here are the rules...
EIGHT DAYS OF HAPPY!
1. Post about something that made you happy today, even if it's just a small thing.
2. Do this every day for eight days.
3. Tag eight of your friends to do the same
Day One:
Well, a clip of The Daily Show that made me laugh long and loudly. And Brindle kept head butting me as I prepped a snack; that filled me with a warm glow. But I think the thing that actually made me happy was looking at the bathroom scale this morning. :)

Meme: Do you write like a man or a woman?
Mar. 3rd, 2009 12:08 amDo you write like a man or a woman? Take a sample of your writing here:
The Gender Genie: http://bookblog.net/gender/genie.php
Snagged from Alyburns.
I thought I'd put in a couple of stories.
--------------------------------------
For The Subtext of a Name, which I consider a story of Daniel examining his feelings, it thinks I'm male. That surprised me.
http://www.devinemadness.com/tenaya/subtext.htm
Words: 1605
Female Score: 1375
Male Score: 1611
The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: male!
---------------------------------------
In Cloth Ties, Daniel is somewhat passive in a very sexually charged story. Not surprising, it pegged me as female.
http://www.devinemadness.com/tenaya/ties.htm
Words: 2401
Female Score: 2945
Male Score: 2456
The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: female!
--------------------------------------
Forced Perspectives has graphic sex of the non-con variety. I thought this one would be heavily male but it turned out male by a narrow margin.

Words: 17898
Female Score: 21151
Male Score: 21813
The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: male!
--------------------------------------
Esprit de Corps has a lot of sex so I thought it'd be male.
http://www.devinemadness.com/tenaya/esprit.htm
Words: 16172
Female Score: 16146
Male Score: 17834
The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: male!
--------------------------------------
It's not surprising that I equate force, power, sex as male and feelings as female--that's very sterotypical. But it is interesting that I flip back and forth. Am I channeling a more male energy in writing some stories? The words they use as keywords aren't particularly male or female to my mind. It's curious.
