1. Reply to this post, and I will pick five 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 squee. Whoo!

1. Nat 1
A 'nat 1' or 'natural 1' is a botch in role-playing games. The old World of Darkness rule is that if you roll a hand of dice and none of them are 'successes' but you roll a 1, you botch the roll, botch the action, and are full of fail. This is my full of fail icon.
2. I am evil!
explodingdog.com was at one point my favourite website. I went through all of the archives and looked at every single picture. The premise is that you email in a single sentence or phrase and he 'illustrates' it. This is my playful terribly politically incorrect icon. For when I am being evil. But not that evil.
3. my gomi
My Gomidoll Igon is an asian ball-jointed doll, or, more specifically, his head. When I made this icon, I only had the head, I'd just received it, and I had no idea who or what he was in terms of a character. So I just called it 'my gomi'. He has a name, a character, and a body now, but I love this picture. It's one of my favorites of him. There are more pictures of him on my facebook, actually...
4. delerium
That's Neil Gaiman's character, Delerium. I heart her bigtime. She's my everything icon. She's batshit and I love her. Um, she's from the Sandman series? She's the youngest of the Endless.
5. gentleman
When I was a sophomore I went to the Halloween Dresden Dolls concert and my 'costume' was a late nineteenth century gentleman's outfit. I had blue hair and blue dreads coming out from underneath a top hat and I wore all the trimmings, down to lace cuffs. I was eyeballed by a photographer all night long, and got drunk with a drag queen named Mika. I only remember her name because her blog was mikarrhea or something like that... 'like diarrhea only with Mika!' she said. O man she was awesome. But yeah. My grandmother took a picture before hand, in the front hall of her Victorian house. So that's the picture, cropped. I rarely use the icon.
