but you should know the way I feel

[lostinapapercup]

I need a little bit of a break from writing, so... meme? Unfortunately I'm too lazy to go look up where I last saw it, but the idea is this:

Leave a comment here and I'll pick five of your icons for you to explain, describe, or otherwise comment on.

Feel free to post your final responses here or in your own journal.

I always like this one. Yes, please!

Man, I should really do something other than memes on here. Whoops.

Sometimes memes are what the brain needs!

You have so many interesting icons. I think I remember a few I've asked about before so I can eliminate those, but it's still hard! This time I'd like to hear about:

Seriously! Besides, you know my love of icons.

I should watch some Due South sometime. All I can see is Callum Keith Rennie in that first icon and thinking about how much more innocent he looks than his BSG character, and what a sentiment. Sometimes I think everyone should own a punching bag; I don't consider myself a particularly violent person and I've definitely thought more than once about getting one.

I'm always struck by your Superman icon. I just thought the movie was okay, but the icon's great. Like you said, the lighting's gorgeous and it has a certain comic-book feeling even though it's nowhere near cartoony.

I'm always really struck by the walking-on-the-beach icon too! It's one of my absolute favorites of yours.

I strongly suggest it. If it's ever on instant Netflix, you ought to check it out. It's clever and funny but definitely tugs at the old heartstrings, too. CKR is adorable in that show, which meant seeing him in BSG was like derailing a train, it was such a turnaround!

(Hey, did you see that Trigun is on instant now? I may need to reacquaint myself with our favorite gun-toting priest.)

Yeah, Clark in particular looks almost likes he's been drawn in, there. It could be a cover for a Superman comic, which is another reason why I love it.

You picked a whole bunch of my favorites!
