1a. OR, reply to this post with six of my icons.
2. Make a post (including this info) & talk about the icons I chose.
2a. I will make a post talking about the icons you chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.



[personal profile] gypsyjr chose these:


keywords: herbert is smarter than you

Herbert West, from Re-Animator, who is, in fact, smarter than you. He cannot believe you just said that completely ridiculous thing you just said and is going to break his pencil at you.



keywords: yi elischi sa ai chi bedhul

Story time! When I was 13, I started making up a language which I called dachier. The text on the icon and its keywords are from a line of a poem I wrote once in that language - "Yi elischi sa ai chi bedhul. Ni sa aia un mo cha abel." (Latinate vowels, stress usually on the penultimate syllable, hard ch's and the dh is like a voiced th in English. For those who want to play at home.) It translates to "My love is like the birch tree. He is pale and more than lovely." I like birches.



keywords: tea break

It is always an appropriate time for tea. I tend to use this icon (and the "tea" tag) to talk about food in general, though.



keywords: discuss

Guildenstern from Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. He is useful for talking about "Things are freaky!" without necessarily including an element of "What the hell?" The icon was made by [profile] poisoninjest, which I have forgotten to include in its keywords.



keywords: family portrait. if pretorius had fit, he'd be here too.

Sometimes, I write this insane AU of Bride of Frankenstein in my head, where no one died at the end and the two monsters and their mad scientists live happily ever after in what is quite honestly a fairly warped version of a family relationship. It does not actually grow out of the movie terribly organically anymore because I've had the story in my head for so long that it's kind of mutated but it is one of my happy places. I also once made a "The Bride of Frankenstein has two daddies" icon because that is true but I believe I gave it to someone else.



tasty and collectible

I love PEZ dispensers. There are six on my desk right now - five Star Trek ones and a vampire bat which I recently acquired. And sometimes, therefore, I need an icon for talking about PEZ dispensers. Or other shiny things.
