Random memes. Because I'm kind of bored out of my skull, and if I don't find something to occupy myself with, I'll do something unspeakable. I might even start doing my Uni assignments. *shock*
Snagged from :
Look at your LJ userpics list. If you have fewer than twenty icons, post them all. If you have between twenty and fifty icons, pick every fifth one. If you have between fifty and seventy-five icons, pick every seventh one. If you have over seventy-five icons, pick every tenth one. List them on your LJ, and tell everyone exactly why you have it, why it's interesting to you, and what significance it has.

Camberwick!Sam from Life on Mars, made by
eryslash ) is pretty self-explanatory. John Simm, playing a member of Joy Division - nothing, IMHO, could be more awesome.
3)
Well I needed a Gene Hunt icon (because I wouldn't be an LoM obsessive if I didn't have one), and I'm quite fond of this one, vene though you can't really see him. I think I just like the darkness of it.
4)
It's Joy Division. What more do I need to say?
5)
I'm using this one to comment on PWP fics for, well, obvious reasons (even though Lucille actually uses it in a derogatory fashion).
6)
I'm using this one (which was made by
navras_rheya ) for two reasons. One, it's good to use if commenting on crack!fic. Two, it's from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and when I see this icon I am pleasantly reminded of the episode from which it comes from, which is one of my favourites.
7)
Just look at it. Doesn't that just explain everything? *dazed sigh* And for those not in the know, it's the Angel Castiel from Supernatural (made by
lasamy ).

IF YOUR LIFE WAS A MOVIE, WHAT WOULD THE SOUNDTRACK BE?
