More Memage (or: The Boredom sets in)

EDIT: Slightly overwhelmed by response (*sniff* I love you guys ;)) and lack of LJ notifications...*grrr*

Also, clicked on spoiler pictures. Brain exploded. Must clean up mess before I go home. Squeeing all the way.

How long to Saturday?

Will reply to everyone in the morning, scout's honour :)

Ooh, while I think of it, I'm planning on having an icon shuffle over the next few days, so if random pictures turn up in your journals, it's probably me being indecisive as usual...

I did one of these a while back, but they're always entertaining, and I've met some of you guys since then. Plus I'm nosy and I have to stay late at work - entertain me, people! ;) Picked up from fajrdrako.


I want to know 28 things about you. I don't care if we've never talked, never liked each other, or if we already know everything about each other. I really don't. I'm curious about who's on my list and who has me on theirs. What kind of people share this odd non-space with each other, hm?

1. Your Middle Name:
2. Age:
3. Single or Taken:
4. Favorite Movie:
5. Favorite Song or Album:
6. Favorite Band/Artist:
7. Dirty or Clean:
8. Tattoos and/or Piercings:
9. Do we know each other outside of LJ?
10. What's your philosophy on life?
11. Is the bottle half-full or half-empty?
12. Would you keep a secret from me if you thought it was in my best interest?
13. What is your favorite memory of us?
14. What is your favorite guilty pleasure?
15. Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you:
16. You can have three wishes (for yourself, so forget all the 'world peace etc' malarkey) - what are they?
17. Can we get together and bake a cake?
18. Which country is your spiritual home?
19. What is your big weakness?
20. Do you think I'm a good person?
21. What was your best/favorite subject at school?
22. Describe your accent:
23. If you could change anything about me, would you?
24. What do you wear to sleep?
25. Trousers or skirts?
26. Cigarettes or alcohol?
27. If I only had one day to live, what would we do together? (If you have no idea, just say something crazy, it'll entertain me!)
28. Will you repost this so I can fill it out for you?

13. What is your favorite memory of us? There's an 'us'? ;)
14. What is your favorite guilty pleasure? Slash, the kinkier the better.
15. Tell me one odd/interesting fact about you: Texture can put me off a food faster than anything else. I don't like slimy foods.
16. You can have three wishes (for yourself, so forget all the 'world peace etc' malarkey) - what are they? Wish it was easier to lose and keep off weight; Wish I were more confident and outgoing; Wish I didn't have to work--not saying I wouldn't anyway.
17. Can we get together and bake a cake? It would involve an airplane and passport, but sure!
18. Which country is your spiritual home? England.

20. Do you think I'm a good person? Yes.

23. If you could change anything about me, would you? Nah, it never sticks to change someone else.
24. What do you wear to sleep? Usually nothing.
25. Trousers or skirts? Trousers.
26. Cigarettes or alcohol? Cigs, no; alcohol in moderation.
27. If I only had one day to live, what would we do together? (If you have no idea, just say something crazy, it'll entertain me!) Can't imagine it wouldn't involve snarking DW/TW at some point. Possibly stalk the cast of either show, or both.
28. Will you repost this so I can fill it out for you? Maybe later...probably.

#15 - I totally agree. I cannot eat raw tomatoes, but once they're cooked and less...tomato-y, I'm fine with them.

#17 - I have a passport :D

#22 - well, of course, I don't have one either. except that the accent I don't have changes depending who I'm talking to. I seem to have a sponge instead of a brain...

#25 - not pants? ;)

You too? I definitely get more Southern when dealing with my husband. And a good deal more English when I'm fanning. ;)

Since I started writing/reading DW/TW fanfic, not so much. It appeals to the engineer in me to go with the word or phrase that is more universally understood and causes the least amount of confusion. 'Trousers' means the same in both US and UK English. 'Pants' does not.

Butting in. Hope ya don't mind.

You know? I do the same thing, and so does my bro. Maybe it has something to do with the Midwest's lack of an 'accent' per se, but if I spend more than a few hours listening to a specific accent, it starts to bleed into mine. (And god have I got to stop watching/listening to David Tennant before work, 'cause I can't do Scottish to save my life. Gets me strange looks for the first hour or so before it fades.) I even know someone who moved to Georgia from here a few years back, and she sounds more southern than the natives now.
