1. Reply to this post, 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.

Computer Suicide, by [info]everlyn
I loves me some Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and I can frequently be counted on to be the voice of doom. Also, insanity. Either way, the icon makes for a warning tag that the opinion being stated is at odds from the standard one.

Consistency is Overrate, by [info]bookloversdiary
I am female, and thus of the gender commonly regarded as indecisive. Changing opinions is like wanting your cake and having it too. (Does anyone else wonder where this statement came about from? It's your cake, why can't you have it?) So people in general, me in particular, have no qualms with changing our minds about what we want for dinner. After we've ordered. (Also, I have this internal timer I set when John's playing WoW. It could be an hour, it could be five minutes. But after it goes off, I wander off. This strikes me as rather feline behavior...)

Mock Fandom, by [info]snarkel
I needed something to use as a movie/book/tv show/whatever snarky review icon. Han was the best I could find, amidst a bevy of "My fandom..." icons. (Such as "My fandom turned into a 'Best of Queen' tape", which all Good Omens fans will find amusing, and so will everyone else, but they'll be wondering where the quote is from. I think I also have a 'MY FANDOM SPEAKS ONLY IN CAPITAL LETTERS', for the Discworld fan in me. But I haven't loaded it.) But I hold little sacred, and so I mock. Especially things like Hercules Versus the Moon Men.

Diplomat, by [info]pouring_icons
I'm not even certain I've read the Discworld book this is taken from (I only have eight or so, and I actually haven't finished Guards, Guards...). But I'm not known for being tactful (my main way of doing so is by keeping my mouth shut), so this pokes gentle fun at me or whomever I am replying to. And sometimes Margret, who once called to ask if I wanted a used book for my birthday. (Really, none of the S-B girls are good with tact, but it's toss up between Margret and E about who's worse.)

Authority, by [info]iconsbycurtana
In my head, this icon goes by "I'm the alpha male!", which is a running joke over at Maya and Crystal's place, because even though there's two guys living with them and Maya's the one bringing in the money and paying the bills, Crystal's the alpha male. So this is my "because I said so" icon. Fear it. Respect its authority. And Fifth Element provides the perfect screencap for right amount of authority I exude.

Unhelpful, by [info]iconsbycurtana as well
My advice, let me share it with you.

Replaced Icons?

Lee, consider checking your user icons. I posted a comment on someone's journal and left my 'I love a good ramble' icon there (since of course it meandered off topic and I should come with a warning sign) and went back to check a reply and found some girl with a quill pen staring at me. (Well, at the top of the icon box, but whatever!) So I head over to my icon page, and that's the only one changed, but i am officially weirded out. (Especially considering the hotmail thing going on right now, but I still have the email account I registered my journal with, and I never had my email displayed, and it's not like all my journal entries aren't still here...)

Anyways, weird thing I noticed. Who knows how long it's been that way. Has anyone else seen that icon and not mentioned it to me because they figured it was just another one I added? It's cute, I like it, very 'how to respond' feel to it, but I've neverM/i> seen it before.

Liz complains she can't find snarky icons. I'm not seeing her problem.

Reactions to Goblet of Fire as per an icon-maker.

Or, how to snark in ten words or less. "I suppose I'm okay with the pink dress. ... Even though it should be blue." There are other me's out there, people, and they want the blue dress too! Though I thought Harry ought to be kinda short, especially compared to Ron (always described as tall). Seeing as how Ron got regular meals and didn't have to be cupboard-sized and all.

(Never read bad fanfic. Harry is apparently taller than Ron (he has a twelve inch growth spurt the summer before 7th year, apparently), bedecked in gayboi leather (because girls don't see guys in normal blue jeans as being sexy, though I'll agree with the ick-ness any female possessing a little common sense has with the pants that start to where a guy's boxers end), and completely ripped via Quidditch. (Though I'll give on the fact he probably would have some serious thigh muscles. >_> Gotta wonder where abs of steel come into play.))

I think the unrequited!Myrtle is cute. "You could share my toilet if you die."


To get off that topic, sort of. Is anyone else annoyed by the boys/girls' club they made Durmstrang and Beauxbaton into? Admittedly I really don't want to see a guy in the Beauxbaton uniform- even though it was cute, in a 'hey, they make ten-year-olds wear that too? Are the teachers Nabochovs?' sort of way. Plus few girls would shave their heads just to get into a school. (Actually, I'd grow my hair out, because none of those guys can compare to Vin Diesel. Now there's a hottie who pulls off shaved bald . Yum. ... Moving back on topic now.) In the book, the fact that *both* schools accept *both* genders is stated. Y'know, the fact the Durmstrang girls all looked liked Marcus Flint and the Beauxbaton boys that the younger girls were cooing over? (Likely all gaybois if they had to wear movie!Beauxbatons uniforms. Maybe they had a darker blue for the guys.)

Cat Haiku. Very cute. Full of truths about cats and why they act the way they do.
