I don't mean to sound alarmist... well, okay.. I do mean to sound alarmist. Today's post on my blog tosocnet will give all the details of why I've started this meme and perhaps why I suggest you consider doing the same.
All comments for this post are screened for privacy If you actively or even inactively read me on LJ please consider leaving a comment with the following: 1) Your name or nickname you want me to remember you by 2) A Contact email 3) Other social networking sites you use. The best way to leave them is one of two ways: 3a) A link to your profile page on the site 3b) In URI format: okcupid://lordandrei (note: I don't need your LJ profile, obviously) List as many as you can! Here are some ideas: LinkedIn, Friendster, Tribe, Facebook, OKCupid, Classmates, Twitter, Orkut (Well, if you're brazillian I guess), Amazon, Netflix
By the way... you may want to archive your LJ's just for safety. Sadly in my case that's over 2600 entries over a little more than 7 years. To allay panic: I don't think LJ is going to vanish any time in the near future. Tags: death knell, livejournal, meme, social networking

As I will have extra time over the holidays; it's anonymous guessing game time again. Three Simple rules: 1. You ANONYMOUSLY post 3 clues about yourself. 2. I get 3 guesses. For the first two guesses you have to give me another ANONYMOUS clue. 3. After 3 guesses you have to tell. I am bolding anonymous because sometimes people forget and it kind of blows the entire game. I may post links to my previous games of this because... well, there are people who left clues who dropped off the net and I never did solve them. Note: you don't have to be on LJ for this one. But you do need to keep an eye on the post. ( track this post) If you managed to defeat me... You have a choice, you can claim a one of a cheap prize that I already have. Or you can try giving me 3 more clues. Beating me then means a real prize. Okay... come 'n' get me. ;) BTW: Happy holidays Tags: game, guessing, meme, who are you

Been working on this one most of the day. This is the first of several. Also.. if you post this meme or have posted it... please comment with a link to your post so I can jump on yours. and now... Comment on this post and say Pardon me, sir. Do you have any Grey Poupon or something like that. I will choose seven interests from your profile and you will explain what they mean and why you are interested in them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so that others can play along. Here are the first set(s) that I was asked about: From ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) princekermit: קבּלה - I use the Hebrew spelling because this word is most usually spelled wrong as Kaballah. No really, to see what I mean, check out this post. Anyway, I loved codes as a kid. I've actually invented one or two cyphers that I think 'intelligence organizations' might be interested in. That being said... Kaballah is my cypher into mysticism. It blends esoterica with coded treasure finding. Quite fun. cocoa development - I have been a professional (meanin' gettin' paid fer it) software engineer for about 15 years. But the thing is that I have maybe four formal college classes in the field. Everything else was learned outside college. I was a Theatre and Radio/TV production major. One of the major things that is 'expected' of an SE is good knowledge of "basic libraries". Effecitively, knowing not just how to use the card catalogue, but where the common reference books are, and about 25-50% of the contents of those reference books. When I joined the industry... I was a bit behind. Ask my coworkers about my C++ knowledge. They'll agree. Cocoa... was a new library that appeared while I was in the industry. (Those of you who are NeXTies can just hush up now)... So.. I got the same jump as others. I like the language of Objective -C and I love the Cocoa Libraries. (Very intuitive)... So I have a high interest in Cocoa Development. esoteric trivia - When I was a kid, my dad had a Trivia encyclopaedia. And let me tell you this was obscure stuff. It was alphabetical and included alpha-numerics. It was like reading wikipedia in places. Entries like: 1313 - The Mockingbird Lane street address of the Munsters. Since then, I have grown to be a fount of (perceived to be) useless information. I love it. Sometimes people actually get an "Oh? Really?!?!" moment out of it and take it with them. To me... that makes it worth it. ethical hedonism - Hedonism is the absolute pursuit of pleasure. Or more essentially that good and bad can be equated with pleasure and pain. Now... I've never been a fan of such vague terms as "Good", "Evil", "Pain", etc. Personally, I view the process of ethical hedonism, as using the feelings of pleasure to drive an understanding of True Will. Rather than simply add 'and vice versa' I want to describe that the process works backwards as well. As I learn more about myself as a person, it steers what does and doesn't feel good. And if you really want to know what drove this description... ask jnanacandra about the first time she kissed me. These last three are tricky. I read them and thought, "Are they in my interest list?" Nope.. They are in my dislike list. But you listed them. my self image - I honestly don't dislike who I am. But I have a very difficult time being fair to myself about my image. I am hypercritical and often convinced I'm not as good, pretty, thin, etc as I really should be. scientology - This one is simple. Short and sweet. The first contact potential members have with this organization is thinly veiled brainwashing. After you join the brain washing becomes more severe. And I can not respect or like or support any organization that attracts its members through coersion. sun saturn conjunction - This is just something i have to deal with. What this means is that in my birthchart, the planet Saturn was in the sky in a similar place to the sun. From an astrological point of view it represents limits placed on self. Don't like it.

This is a meme I came across in my history from about 3 years ago. 1. Post a list of ten TV shows or fandoms you follow (current or cancelled). 2. Have your friends list guess your favorite character from each show. (comments are screened) 3. When guessed, bold the line and write a sentence about why you like the character. 4. Post in your own LiveJournal. The list: 1. Doctor Who chite: Sarah Jane. She was the best companion of the lot. 2. Babylon 5 3. Firefly (two answers) 4. M.A.S.H.chite: Hawkeye... It just was. There was no one else. 5. Wonderfalls 6. Red Dwarf bayareajenn: Lister. Cloister the Stupid in the land of Fushell :-D 7. Buffy the Vampire Slayer 8. Family Guy bayareajenn: Brian. The voice of reason who still might sniff your butt. 9. You can't do that on television bayareajenn: Moose. Great personality. And well, did several episodes barefoot. Was awesome. And, for the final challenge: 10. Space Academy Tags: meme, sf, tv

This is something neat I saw in faerievixen2's journal. So I figured I'd give it a whirl. As I'm effectively bedside without much beyond really kitchy Anime. (Bonus points if anyone can guess which) {Freeple house members who currently know are not eligible} So here's the meme: Everyone has things they blog about. Everyone has things they don't blog about. Challenge me out of my comfort zone by telling me something I don't blog about, but you'd like to hear about, and I'll write a post about it. Ask for anything: latest movie watched, last book read, political leanings, thoughts on yaoi, favorite type of underwear, graphic techniques, etc. Repost in your own journal so that we can all learn more about each other!
