All right, kids, it's lovefest time. So dust off those meme trousers and come on out and FEEL THE LOVE. Today is all about the silly light frothy fun. This is a lovefest/get-to-know-you/friending meme all wrapped into one so don't be shy!
Here's how it works:
1. Put your tags in the box by posting a comment saying "Will you be my Neighbor?" Or whatever. I just enjoy the Mr. Rogers reference.
2. You must interview the person who posted ABOVE YOU in their comment thread.
3. You must ask them three questions:
One (somewhat) personal (but not too personal, as this is, after all the internets, so no asking for identifying information-- ie, name, address, location, etc. Just more generic personal stuff.)
One fannish (anything fandom or pilots-related), and
One weird/silly/crazy (just let loose and have fun with this one).
4. You must must MUST chitty chitty chat chat with other people who have answered, especially if you see something intriguing. This is all about the talking folks, so let's get to it. :D
As innibis is mywilling human sacrifice cheerful little guinea pig, she will be first up---(see the frist comment below)
And above all, HAVE FUN. And Happy Thursday. ; )

Innibis sets a shining example.
Date: 2011-12-15 01:54 pm (UTC)Bee's questions:
#1 -- What would your dream job be?
#2 -- Are you more like Lee or Kara (and explain why).
#3 -- What's the worst, craziest and/or funniest pickup line you've ever used or that's ever been used on you, and did it work?
Innibis: 1 - This is a complicated one. In many ways what I currently do is a dream job; challenging, constantly changing, problem solving, a ton of responsibility
1 - for all my love of working on my own, i really love managing people and working intensively with a team
1 - so i guess my dream job would be owning my own business
1 - I mean I also want to be a Broadway Singer, an astrophysicist, an astronaut and a writer
Bee: (and a farmer?)
Innibis: (no)
Bee: (everyone should always want to be a farmer)
Innibis: but definitely a marine biologist
Bee: oh come on!
Innibis: I hate gardening. I am not good at it
Bee: but there are fuzzy animals! THEY ARE CUDDLY AND CUTE!!!
Innibis: BUT FARMERS KILL THEM
Bee: now i'm going to sing "farmer and the cowman" from oklahoma
Innibis: oh the farmer and the cowman should be friends. . .
damnit
i'll be singing Oklahoma! all day now
Bee: huh?
HA!
i win
Innibis: I just saw a great production of that last year
you do
2 - I'm not like Kara or Lee, actually.
2 - I certainly identify with characteristics of both. Lee's commitment to the spirit of the constitution above all things comes to mind
2 - as well as Kara's zest for life
2 - but they're damaged in ways that I'm not. I don't want to hurt people, and they do with their vast cruelty streaks
Bee: I gotchya. now i just need answer #3
Innibis: i need to go up and see what it is.
Bee: the pickup line
used on you or by you
Innibis: 3 - I don't use pick up lines
3 - I just smile and show cleavage
Bee: best intro for underlying romantic purposes then
;P
now THAT is always a winning strategy
Innibis: 3 - the worst puckup line I ever got was during plebe summer
plebe summer!
when I was always hot and stressed and tired and NOT CUTE
and my hair stuck up
and the dude leaned over and flipped my tag out of the back of my sweaty, sweaty shirt
and said "Just what I though. Made in heaven."
*facepalm*
Bee: why did you hair stick up? (you see how the really important things bother me)
Bee: SO MUCH FACEPALM
did you cackle? i would have cackled.
Innibis: because i had to get it cut super short
Bee: like shorter than shoulder length?
Innibis: and had 2 minutes for 3 people to take a shower in the morning
oh yeah
and it was humid
my hair dried on it's own
Bee: did you look at him like a crazyperson?
Innibis: and it is wavey
without the rest of my hair to hold it down, it sort of rose
I did
i didn;t even answer
i just stared
Bee: wow
Innibis: it did not compute
Bee: i didn't think that one even got used anymore
that's awesome

Date: 2011-12-15 06:31 pm (UTC)On my 23rd birthday i was in a club and across the way was the BEST LOOKING GUY i had ever seen (still, even after ALL these years this guy was one of the best looking guys i have EVER seen). I turned to my friend and said "that's what i want for my birthday! I want him!" and she said "he's blah blah blah and he is so conceited and full of himself and he'll never even talk to you" which BTW, is BULLSHIT,
So... i had this stchick i always used called "my three redeeming features" and i walked up to him and said " hi! i hear that you're pretty full of yourself" ... and then i paused and said "but then so am i ... but of course, i have reason to be" to which he was SO SHOCKED that he said "WHY?" and i said "because i have 3 redeeming features!" and he was so nonplussed that he asked me about them and so on and so on and LONG STORY SHORT I TOTALLY HOOKED UP WITH HIM THAT NIGHT so Happy Birthday to me!!!
ahhhhh...the good old days when you could bullshit your way through life!
There ya go
Won't you be my Neighbor?
Date: 2011-12-15 01:55 pm (UTC)Re: Won't you be my Neighbor?
Date: 2011-12-15 02:29 pm (UTC)1) Hmmm, somewhat personal question. Okay: do you have any tattoos, and if so, what are they? If not, do you think about getting any, and if so, what are they?
2) Fannish: Who are your favorite major and minor characters on BSG and why? Alternatively, since I don't remember your answers, you could say who you'd frak/ marry/ toss off a mountain... :D
3) Silly: Hmm, I am still waking up, so this is not as silly as you might want... If someone paid for your airfare and travel expenses anywhere in the world, where would you go, and why?
