I was gonna skip this one...

Since many of the folks on my flist are people I've never been in face to face contact with, but what the hell, I'll be a sheep and moo with the oddest of them:

01. Reply with your name and I will write something about you.
02. I will then tell what song/movie reminds me of you.
03. If I were to apply an o'clock to you, it would be...
04. I will try to name a single word that best describes you.
05. I'll tell you the most memorable moment I've had with you.
06. I will tell you what animal you remind me of.
07. I'll then tell you something that I've always wondered about you.
08. Put this in your journal.

I haven't responded to this one in the journals of those I haven't actually met, but don't let that stop you if you feel the urge, I'll just take a page out of dilickjm's book and make stuff up.

1: You're the only UK resident (current and/or former) I know who actually would fit in to the Republican Party. At least, you'd fit in with the Republican Party of 40 years ago. I don't think you've really noticed just how much irrationality has crept in, and I know you, you have zero tolerance for that.

2: The Clash - London Calling

3: Five o'clock, but only on one of those stately grandfather clocks where the five is the purity of a simple 'V'.

4: Unflapable.

5: Of the two times you've visited us here in the DC Metro Area, I think the time we were trying to grill in the dark in front of silmaril's apt. without any sort of actual grilling implements, or even a proper fire, was a blast. That was memorable as corruptedjasper had jumped the pond from the Netherlands to join us as well.

6: Owl

7: I'm curious, are you still looking to jump to this side of the pond? You do realize things are no less fucked up here, just differently fucked up, yes?

1: Well, quite possibly, I freely admit, although I'd have to wonder how much of that is my reluctance to adopt the position "Vote For The Party Of Being Slightly Less Wrong Than The Other One". (That's the principle that I voted Conservative on in the election-before-last, hereabouts, but it's not exactly a winning slogan.)

I suspect that, were I actually a US voter at the present time, I'd be the archetype of the irritated libertarianish wondering who I can possibly vote for *now*.

7: Yes, absolutely, assuming I can find any means to do it. As for the latter - well, I'd still maintain that things would have to get much, much worse before they reached the level of fucked-upness hereabouts. Not that I'd claim that the US is entirely flawless or close to it, but it's still the best option of the nations on offer in my book, and that by a pretty hefty margin.
