Tell me who you are and what you know...

I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. I read your journals, or we have something else in common and we chat occasionally. Some of you I hardly know at all. Perhaps you lurk, for whatever reason. But you friended me and I thank you for your interest in my words.

But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...they listen in rapture to the love-music of she-turnips."

I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. Yes, even you people whom I know really well. Then post this in your own journal and see what gems of knowledge appear.


While I have your attention, here's a movie meme. I'll post 16 lines from movies I love, and you name them. When you get one right, I'll slash it out and put your name there so everyone will know how smart you are.

hint: they are not ALL horror movies

Oh, and here's a thing about me: I'm a jerk. A real knee-biter.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
1, 4, 10, 12, and 15 are correct!

[identity profile] vomit-maggots.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Not Kenneth Brannagh, huh?

Well, it's one of them damn Harry Plopper films.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Kenneth B was not in Prisoner of Azkaban, silly.

But you did very well.

[identity profile] vomit-maggots.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, for fuck's sake...it' Chamber of Secrets, right? Lupin was the Dark Art's teacher in Azkaban. Duh. I'm currently doing some Chris Farley head-slappin'.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 02:51 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it is.

It is tough keeping track of all those damn DADA teachers when they have a new one every damn year.

Thing: As of today, if I die in a fire the police will be able to identify my remains.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
That's good to know. I wear a ring with my maiden name in it.

6 is Harold and Maude!

And something about me. Um, my first car was a Ford Fairmont. Its name was Herman. (and yes, I suck at coming up with stuff like this.)

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 02:47 am (UTC)(link)
Correct!

And Herman is a great name.

Dude -

I'm sorry, but can you send your mailing address to Everythingtold32101@yahoo.com so I can send you and H a holiday card? I cannot find it!

[identity profile] spiralwitch.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:07 am (UTC)(link)

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:26 am (UTC)(link)
Right On!

[identity profile] leemoyer.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:27 am (UTC)(link)

I'm a serious square who believes that loyalty to quality is good. I love movies about memory (Blade Runner, Memento, Dark City, Eternal Sunshine, et al).


2. Psycho?
3.Night of the Living Dead
9. the latest Harry Potter?

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
You got beat to number two, 3 and 9 are correct, though you should really give an actual title. ;-]

Sorry for my sloth - the pressing need for a root canal (and the attendant pain) has made me impatient.

On the plus (?) sideI will meet the endodontist at 7 am tomorrow and hope to solve this sudden problem. Heck, I'd be there at 4:30 am if I needed to be...

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Yikes!

[identity profile] uterdic.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
5: Silence of the Lambs
7. The Man With Two Brains
16. Zoolander

Oh, and I lived with you and H for 2 years. Ummm, what don't you know about me? I'll have to think about it.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:51 am (UTC)(link)
There must be something.

What was the first movie you saw that made you want to make movies?

[identity profile] uterdic.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Tee hee, you totally know the answer to that. It was 1977 and I was 4 yeas old...

The first cassette I owned was Sgt. Pepper.
I chose to go to NC because it was closer to my family than U of M.
I wonder why I lived in NC for as long as I did.
I'll post more as I think of them.

There really isn't much to say about me. I really kick ass at Texas Hold'em.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Nice.

About Me: I have webbed toes, I've never changed a diaper, and when I was in first grade, I peed my pants when attacked by a big scary dog. My neck was covered in blood, but I wouldn't let my folks take me to the hospital until I changed my pants.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 03:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Holy crap, that's both funny and sad.

[identity profile] thehula.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 04:10 pm (UTC)(link)
I live in fear of the big sneeze. You know, the kind where you have to hold your hand in front of your face and run for a tissue? FEAR IT.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I hear that.

[identity profile] vomit-maggots.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't get The Man With Two Brains.

I have to go kill myself now.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-20 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
It's okay, it was a tough one!

[identity profile] klynnfrost.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
I have two birthmarks and my twin has none!

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 12:17 am (UTC)(link)
Really?

You know, I know a lot of twins.

[identity profile] klynnfrost.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
...most women are familiar with at least one pair ;P

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 12:23 am (UTC)(link)
LOL

[identity profile] madush69.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
ROTFLOL!

I have a fairly large birthmark on my left boob.

Julie shares a birthday with my sister, only she's four years older than I (and eight years older than my sister).

My dad rents paintings from the library.

We have a birthday party for my dead grandma every year and I've been informed by many that that's strange. Personally, I see nothing odd about this at all.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 01:25 pm (UTC)(link)
I think remembering the birthday of someone you miss is very nice.

[identity profile] everythingtold.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
I do too! *shrugs* oh well.

[identity profile] hortonhearsawho.livejournal.com 2007-12-21 07:29 am (UTC)(link)
Well, I knew a bunch of those that other people beat me to. Absent from the internets for a few days and look what happens. I don't get to look smart.

But something about me? I actually have actual fun editing things, especially my friends' papers. I watch too many movies. I have an obsession with Asia, especially China and Taiwan to the point where I'm almost certain that, with my Teaching English as a Foreign Language certification I will be living in either place for at least a year after graduation.

And, while he's older, Jon Stewart and I were born on the same day. Which clearly means that November 28 should be declared a holiday. ;)

Which clearly means that November 28 should be declared a holiday. ;)

I concur.

Something about me:
I have clothes in 10 different sizes in my upstairs closets, because I gain and lose weight that often and refuse to give up hope of getting back to my college size.

[identity profile] wednes.livejournal.com 2007-12-22 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I've got an array of sized kicking around my closet as well.
