Mine is a multi-generational geek family

My dad's last email forward included the Evil Overlord List. This time, he gave me LOLCODE.

(And he sent the email in LOLCAT. SRSLY.)

I really don't have the heart to tell Dad that I've seen most of the forwards he's sent me. I am an internet geek. At least, they are normally things I find funny.

LOL, Gaia

This happened on my first full day of being 24.

Names have been changed, and all that

Scene: One of the games on Gaia. There is a chat feature.
Person A: why did you pick the name you did?
(Innocent Bystander B) enters the chat.
Me: It's an old internet handle. I've had 'stareyes' for nearly a decade. And Becca is a RL nickname.
Me: Hello
IBB: hi
PA: a decade?
PA: gtg
Person A leaves the chat.
Me: ... Apparently being online for a decade makes me old.

Meme!

1) Make a list of 10 characters.
2) Assign each character a number.
3) Without telling anyone who's on the list or the character's assigned number, get questions from your flist about what they'd like to know about them.
e.g.: "If 3 and 4 were trapped in a cave together with only a blanket and a toothpick, what would they do?" (The more random the better!)
4) Post the answers and who was who on the list.

I'm bored at work, so have a meme...

Leave a name of a series or fandom in a comment and I'll tell you my three favorite characters and my three least favorite characters, and I might provide reasons why. If I don't know the fandom, I'll look up wikipedia or some other side and look at the character profiles and pick my favorite three based on those.

I'm calling this a 'kick off the new journal' meme...

A-- go to my fics and pick out a line or two from one of my stories.
B-- I will respond with which story I think it's from.
C-- points and a drabble to anyone who stumps me!


Fics can be found in the usual places -- my website and Invoking Urania over on LJ. I found this meme trying to archive my old stuff, and figured I'd get it started here. Plus, I finished the drabbles I owed from the last meme.
