Letter meme

Personal

This is a meme I saw at Inge's LJ some time ago. How it works:

Comment on this entry and I will give you a letter. Write ten words beginning with that letter in your journal, including an explanation what the word means to you and why, and than pass out letters to those who want to play along.

Inge threw an E at me. Quite a tough letter, so it took me a while. Here we go:

I made it! Thanks Ig, but next time please throw me a freaking Q or Z because I'd probably be finished sooner.. this took me how many weeks? Too many.

As the meme said, drop a comment if you want to play along and I'll assign you a very nice letter. Most likely the ß, ø or š for anyone who's going to be mean about the fact that I used to be a Trekkie. ;-)

MSN Pong

Personal

Fun game for MSN: pong! You're going to play a best of 1 game with your mates. The rules are simple:

To start playing, start a conversation with someone saying nothing but "bleep".

If that person answers with a bleep, you lose and must find another person. If that person doesn't respond with a bleep, he/she is now the one who must find someone to play MSN Pong with!

Bleep!

Famous people meme

Personal

I'm starting a meme:

List all famous people you have met and tell how. You must have actually spoken to them and preferably they had some clue who you are. Then appoint five people to repost the meme and say who you think they would love to meet.

Here's mine in approximate order of notability:

I'm appointing: Inge (wants to meet Evanescence's Amy more than Lauri/Aki or James Marsters, I bet), Dorith (Kotani Kinya?), Charlotte (Rufus?), Neil (George Bush) and Kris (no idea so I'll just say Ville Valo). Happy meming!

Colour quiz

Personal

ColorQuiz (darn Yankee spelling) claims to be "a free five minute personality test based on decades of research by color psychologists around the world" which roughly translates into yet-another-bollocks-quiz-on-the-Internet. Let's see how it analyses me:

Your Existing Situation

Willing and adaptable. Only at peace when closely attached to a person, group, or organization on a which reliance can be placed.

Your Stress Sources

Feels that life has far more to offer and that there are still important things to be achieved--that life must be experienced to the fullest. As a result, he pursues his objectives with a fierce intensity that will not let go of things. Becomes deeply involved and runs the risk of being unable to view things with sufficient objectivity, or calmly enough; is therefore in danger of becoming agitated and of exhausting his nervous energy. Cannot leave things alone and feels he can only be at peace when he has finally reached his goal.

Your Restrained Characteristics

The situation is preventing him from establishing himself, but he feels he must make the best of things as they are.
Circumstances force him to compromise and to forgo some pleasures for the time being. Capable of achieving physical satisfaction through sexual activity.

Your Desired Objective

Preoccupied with things of an intensely exciting nature, whether erotically stimulating or otherwise. Wants to be regarded as an exciting and interesting personality with an altogether charming and impressive influence on others. Uses tactics skillfully so as to avoid endangering his chances of success or undermining others' confidence in himself.

Your Actual Problem

The fear that he might be prevented from achieving the things he wants leads him to play his part with an urgent and hectic intensity.

Not entirely made up, I must admit. But then I tried it again and the results were completely different, so this is bollocks indeed - except for my capability to perform sexually, of course.

And my BBFC rating is..

Personal

Quiz time! And finally a short, entertaining one as well. So.. by scoring 67 points, my life has been rated...

http://www.bart666.com/projects/movierating/img/18.gif

Suitable for 18 years or older. This is real life. Anything in this category is considered to be of subject matter relating to adult life, that happens day in and day out. Walking down the street is an 18 certificate. You have a life, well done.

Examples: American Beauty, Scary Movie

I guess it helps that I swear, occasionally smoke pot, have sex, drink loads of beer, am addicted to rock music and stay clear of mainstream and charts. I had to cheat to see if there was an R-rating but it seems like I'm just one murder and a few gay orgies away from "You are filthy. congratulations!". Might be worth a change of lifestyle, such praise.

Hopefully Neil will take the effort to get his all-ages rating, but I'm curious in general what other people score. Post some comments lads and gals!
