Memeage
Comment to this post, and I will list seven things I want you to talk about. They might make sense or they might be totally random. Then post that list, with your commentary, to your journal. Other people can get lists from you, and the meme merrily perpetuates itself.
Questions are from eaten_by_bears
1. Kup hugging crustaceans.
"And that, lads, is how you tame a Nephropid," Kup cheerfully informed his audiance.
Hot Rod and Springer were staring non-plussed at the flame-red, armoured alien their mentor was holding. Just moments ago it had been viciously attacking their shins with its large pincer-like claws, and now it was sitting contendedly in Kup's arms making noises oddly reminiscent of a cat's purr and looking as happy as a bug-eyed alien ever could.
"Huh," Springer remarked to his younger friend, "Who'd of thought?"
"Yeah," Hot Rod agreed, still trying to get over the fact that one of Kup's more far-fetched stories had actually turned out to be true.
"...Like I said, nothing too it - Nephropids are pretty territorial beasties, but they're also tactile creatures and they turned as cuddly as a cyberpup with a bit of affection. But Cancrids... now those are a diffrent story," the old Autobot went on like he hadn't heard them, "Nastiest little buggers I ever met. There was this one time..."
2. Your personal relationship with tea.
It's like a torrid romance with a childhood friend. ;p
3. What kind of thing makes you laugh?
I tend to go for irony and satire over things like slapstick or sexual/body humor. It's for this reason that I avoid most of what mainstream N. America calls comedy. I prefer laughing over the quirks and ironies of real life than watching actors twist themselves into ridiculously implausible situations for cheap laughs. Colin and his family still don't get why I don't find Euro Trip funny. -_-
4. Fuck, marry, kill: Megatron, Galvatron, Starscream
Ignoring the issues of scale, can't I just kill all three of them? Well I might fuck Starscream or Megatron if he's the Beast Wars flavour - but only while keeping a loaded gun pointed at their heads at all times. ;)
5. Favorite TF with a speech quirk?
Beast Wars Megatron with his exaggerated 'yeeeess' and 'noooo' has a pretty smexy voice, thanks to the talented David Kaye.
6. Something that cheers you up when you're unhappy.
Chocolate or tea does the trick pretty well, or reading a good book/piece of fanfic. Taking a vigorous walk outside or imaging punching the person that pissed me off works too.
7. Bananas
Throughout my childhood I seemed to have gone through stages of loving them, hating them, and being indifferent to them. As an adult I like them well enough (minds out of the gutter, you) so I usually have one or two on hand in the fruit dish The boyfriend-creature hates them - except for my banana bread, oddly enough.
