Why hasn't anyone done a Spike vid to Tom Petty's Spike? I'm scared, ain't you boys scared? Wonder if he's gonna show us what bad is...
This is a delayed GIP. It took me ages to pick one of cimorene111's jewellery icons, even discounting the time I spent wanting the glass hearts one just so I could have "blondie" as a keyword. Finally picked this one because merryish said it looks like a little frog, and it sorta does, and I like frogs. And jewellery.
Pimpage of the day: radio_kfkd, for all your writerly needs whines.
I've seen a few different versions of this fill-in-the-blank meme on friendsfriends, and I'm putting it here in the hopes that you all will pick it up, so I can write odd things about you.
I ____ torch.

If I were alone in a room with torch, I would _______.

Someone posted a link to zendom about e-prime a while back, writing/speaking/thinking without using any forms of the verb to be, and today I googled some more information. At the moment, I find it more intriguing as a concept than as a style for writing fiction, but at the same time, the challenge of trying it appeals to me. I considered writing this post in e-prime, but this is a GIP stumped me. This post appears to be a GIP? Bah. (Of course, at this point the GIP-factor has been considerably reduced by all the e-prime babble.) Also, writing realistic dialogue in e-prime strikes me as next to impossible; no one I write about speaks in e-prime, as far as I know.
Writing a story about someone who tries to learn how to speak in e-prime, though, and the ensuing confusion among his friends... now, that might be entertaining.
I think torch should shut up now.
Okay.
