1. Reply to this post, saying you would like to play, and I will pick six of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I 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.
I grabbed this icon back in the days when I was on "Maurice's Message Board". I don't recall exactly why I was feeling "fallen" at that moment... it could have been some sort of message board melodrama, or I may just have been down about something. To me, falling is the best way to describe my feelings when, in particular, relationships go bad. I feel low, covered in dark, alone... like someone who would usually fly (hence the wings), but who is too empty to do so. Oh and, um, the wings are cool. And it's kinda goth. ;)
Mmm, I like this one and I don't use it often enough (really I don't use ANY of my other icons often enough! I should change that.) I grabbed this, again, back in my messageboard days. At the time I was doing a lot of bellydancing and the henna reminded me of that. The picture strikes me as peaceful and also ornate and beautiful. And I love being barefoot.
hehe, I haven't used this one in a while. I LOVE "House" and I'm fairly certain this image is from that, but Hugh Laurie is just effing hilarious. It's the idea of an unbelievable genius essentially sticking his tongue out at you. Sometimes, a post or comment just outright deserves that sentiment. "Someone smarter than you is giving you raspberries."
Wolfie!! The wolf and I are a bit of a long story, but suffice it to say that the wolf is one of my totems/spirit animals/spirit guides. She is the mother wolf... for all intents and purposes, she is how I see the Goddess. Playful, loving, loyal, fiercly protective of her territory and her charges, and not pleasant when she's cranky, or has been crossed. ;)
I. Love. Joy. Chris got me hooked again on "My Name is Earl" after I hadn't watched it for several seasons, and I think Joy is one of my favorite characters. She is an absolute HOOT!!!!! And my favorite line of hers is the "Oh Snap". Once again, it's that sense of character plus sentiment... "trailor park" looks at YOUR situation, and says "Oh snap" at it. As in, "Damn, you're REALLY fucked now." I love it. ;)
hehe, this is another one I don't use nearly enough. This is one of my few "homemade" icons (you can kinda tell by the fact that he's a little squished.) I found a video of the Budgett's Frog once a while back. This froggie is TOTALLY badass. He's just a TINY dude, but in the video he was ready to beat the shit out of the guy that was poking at him. He knows he's a little dude, he doesn't give a shit... he's all like, "Fuck you, bring it on bring it ooooooon!!!!!!!" Budgett's frog will TOTALLY kick your ass. ;)

Date: 2009-04-30 06:10 pm (UTC)Ok, I have to totally look up Budgett's frog now. Very interesting stuff!
I have only seen a few eps of "Earl"... I was wondering if that was where the Oh Snap came from. Now I hafta see more! *grins*
I am amazed at how many Wolves I am friends with... I feel like I have a couple different totem animals, but wolf is definitely one of mine, too.
I LOVE this pic of Hugh Laurie. It's sooo funny.
I'm fascinated by henna, and I'd love to get my hands henna'd sometime. I am absolutely no good at doing it though. I've tried a couple of times. It's HARD!
I love the Fallen icon, too. My back often hurts near my shoulder blades, so Scott jokes that it's because my wings fell off. ;)
Thanks for explaining these 6. I enjoyed reading your thoughts.
