Stolen from gypsy_scribbles

The problem with LJ: we all think we are so close, but really, we know nothing about each other. So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious, but you have no idea about. Ask away.

Then (if you feel like it) post this in your LJ and find out what people don't know about you.

Yes I kind of scared myself with that brainsploding series of colliding story concepts! Unfortunately I don't think signing up for yuletide and demanding that story and that story only works according to the yuletide rules. ;)

I have not seen The Cat from Outer Space... However, its premise sounds not dissimilar to the hilarious alien!LOLcat-in-Cardiff story by copperbadge: Trying to Communicate...?

why yes, I did promptly snag an icon from iconomicon

Re: p.s.

Nice!

This is from the bio on jackshoegazer's LJ (the personal journal of iconomicon); this guy is lol-arious.: "Way back in ye olde 1977, a book mobile swerved to avoid a dinosaur crossing the street and collided with a semi-truck full of camera equipment. Jack Shoegazer sprouted fully-formed from the resulting toxic inferno. Since then, he has been haunted by his dual nature of writer and photographer and is ruled by his misguided attempts to unite this dichotomy. He currently lives in Madison, Wisconsin with his fiancée, Jacquelyn and his son, Ethan, who believe Jack was born in Indiana to lower-middle class blue-collar laborers. Shhhh."

Hee, funny bio.

And I'm liking the (har har har -- literally) seal of approval. Though I still love your punk-kitty icon best... Of course for me the trouble is actually remembering to change my icon from the default one in a comment when I meant to! :)

Re: p.s.

Exactly...that is why you see so much punk kitty (and that I love him).

I love that story! copperbadge / sam_storyteller is da bomb. :D

Here's a different icon by iconomicon. I find it hilarious, though unless you've seen both Lord of the Rings and The Fifth Element, it may not make any sense.

Yes, I love his (too few!) SGA stories, so when I saw the LOLcat one recced somewhere I clicked instantly and was highly entertained.

I have seen both films, but I'm a heathen for not remembering them better and instantly getting it, alas!

[jenna_marianne]

I've actually been introduced to several fandom's by following sam_storyteller's stories. He's great!

(My delicious tag for sam_storyteller)

[skaredykat.livejournal.com]

Ooh thank you, I'll check that out...

[jenna_marianne]

Cool. :D

FYI, some of the links in my bookmarks go to his LJ, where he has a forwarding link to his dreamwidth account: sam_storyteller. I've been updating the links as I come across them, but it should only be one extra click. ;)

Thanks!

For the icon:
Gandalf says "You Shall Not Pass" to the balrog at the end of the Fellowship of the Ring (and also shown in the beginning of Two Towers), and in Fifth Element Leloo keeps saying Multipass to the ticket gate people to show her fake ID before boarding.

:D

Aha, gotcha/cool! :)
