Your incoherance amuses me.

1. You are not a bobble head. I've tried, but your head does not bobble when pushed. Liar.

2. I didn't make these questions, h0r. Notice the "sheisted"!

3. Dude, I totally saw Secret History at the book sale today and contemplated buying it, but the book lept from my hand and refused to be righted in a timely manner, so I thought it was an omen and put it back.

4. I still am shocked by your love of Alice in Chains. You and Dean would get along famously, 'cause you listen to sooo much cock rock. It's sad.

5. You fail at specific things to do. Failure.

6. Notice the icon. Stare, drool, sigh lovingly, repeat as necessary.

Of course you'd know about cock rock.
And the bobble head comment SO went above your head.. it was like a field goal.

No it didn't, I just didn't want to offend any virgin eyes by making a completely dirty comment where anyone could see it.

Heh!

Ok go on then.

Name: Lucy (hate that name, to be honest :0P)
Age: 23
Reason for LJ Username: It was the first thing I could think of. It used to be my favourite Latin word, because it's not actually a Latin word. It's supposed to be Latin for "crane", but no-one ever figured out what the Latin for "crane" really was so they just made up Polyspaston and hoped that would do. Mental, isn't it?! I love it. I translated a story for school once and left Polyspaston in because it sounded funnier:

"Caecillius was very impressed at the size of the Emperor's huge polyspaston."

My teacher wallopped me with the chalk. She did that a lot.

And it wasn't Caecillius, I don't think, but that's the only name I can remember from Latin. Caecillius was a banker who died with his dog beside him in Pompeii. There's a photo of his and the dog's remains, somewhere.

Anyway. What was I doing?

Oh yeah.

Do you enjoy reading my LJ: Yeah!

Why: Cos it's fun. AWFUL reason but it's 7 in the morning here. :0P

Interesting fact about you: Man I don't know. Ummm. I'm distantly related to the blokes who started 20th Century Fox. But we don't keep in touch with that side of the family, obviously, because that would be cool. We keep in touch with the poorer Fox people, who still have money for a limo but.

Wierd fact about you: Ummm. I ate wild boar, elk, and bear sausages?

Quote: My candle burns at both ends, it will not last the night. But ah my foes, and oh my friends, it gives a lovely light. [Roald Dahl]

Will you post this in your LJ? No idea.


A movie: The Mother. Oh, or 28 Days Later.
A book: Darren Shan!!! (there's 12 Darren Shans. Read 'em all). Or Darkling.
A musical artist, song or album: Currently 12 Stops at Home (album) by The Feeling (artist), track 7 I think, Strange (song).
An LJ user not on my friends list: Errrr...
Something to do in the next 2 months: Stop working.

Don't worry, I feel your early morning pain. I am still awake and it is 2:30 AM. Groan.

1. Ahahaha, I wish I could have seen your teacher's face when she read that assignment! Latin is apparently a language that is entirely too easy to funnify, though. My friend, Cid (above) once translated a sentence as, "Don't you be dissin' my in girl."

2. I love that quote of yours. :D

3. I can't say that I have ever heard of Darren Shans. What genre is he?

[identity profile] cid2065.livejournal.com 2006-06-13 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
inn dear friend of mine that is only going to take latin for the first time in the fall.... a wise decision for your poor Ancient Greek self.
But no, the sentence was... "Non reprehendit cauponam meam!"

[identity profile] cid2065.livejournal.com 2006-06-13 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Edit: not "non"... it was "nemo" which means "no one" ...

I reitterate: You are a freak.

...Freak.

[identity profile] polyspaston.livejournal.com 2006-06-14 10:23 am (UTC)(link)
Oh you

[identity profile] polyspaston.livejournal.com 2006-06-14 10:32 am (UTC)(link)
Bugger!

I meant to say:

Oh you MUST read Darren Shan!!!

He's Irish. I think. Oh no, he was born in London and then moved to Ireland really young. Or something like that. He's FANTASTIC.

Basically his whole theory is that in another life his 12 year old self got mixed up with a vampire, Mr Crepsley (whole of the first book. Darren has to pretend he's dead and gets buried alive and has to hear all his family crying over him and then burying him whilst he's taken some sort of paralysing thing it's AWFUL. And supposed to be for kids. He jumps out this window and then just has to hear his mum finding him it's really bloody.) Anyway. Mr Crepsley becomes Darren's mentor and the whole of the second book Darren's just sat there hating Mr C for making him do that to his family etc. But he comes round eventually. He stole a spider from Mr C because he thought it was cool, but then the spider got away and bit his best friend, who got really ill and no one knew the cure, so Mr C comes along, says, I know the cure but Darren had to become his half-vampire companion. So he did, to save his best friend, but then his best friend turns against him and THE TWIST!! IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing. And there's this whole prophecy involved and...and... oh you have to read these books.

I'm rambling. But the theory's really amazingly interesting, all about fate and destiny and it's written as a diary from the vampire Darren's point of view. Along the way he meets like this odd witch who turns out to be and a snake-boy, oh it's awful what happens to snake boy in the end, and oh it's just fantastic.

The worst chapter was the one where someone important dies in a Sirius-like way, and Darren writes this WHOLE chapter about how the character didn't really die, came running back going "did you think I'd really leave you" etc, and everything's happy again, and then you turn the page and it just goes...no. That's not how it happened. I wish it was...

And it makes you cry all over again :0P

Seriously. When I got to the end of book 12 I had to shut it and just sobbed my heart out for a good 20 minutes. The final words...oh!

In short, Read Darren Shan. I should take commission.
