ICON MEME

Aug 14, 2011 23:35

More meme nickage from lmx_v3point3!!!! asdfghjklkjhgfdsa!!!!

There is, in fact, no actual limit on the amount I love images and what can be expressed through them. (Although a lot of them communicate in ways that are context-specific, and thus perhaps are not readily obvious.) There is, I suppose, some sort of progression to the iconic answers. Kind of. Look.

Ths is LMX too lazy to log in on Kindle keyboard. I was really looking forward to seeing your choices and either you have played a cruel trick on us all or I am not able to see your icons on the Kindle. Sigh. Ill comment again when Im back in the UK.

Aww, boo. Silly Kindle. Icons are for kids! :)

This is totally awesome. XD

See, every so often you'll post something like this, and I'll think to myself "How can I possibly talk to this person?" Then I'll breathe a sigh of relief that I got up the nerve to talk to you before I became hopelessly intimidated.

Y'know, if you feel like elaborating with WORDS, I'm all ears. Tell me. *chinhands*

:)

You mean intimidating in that, even with icons, I can't STFU?

But adding words? Cripes. You sure you want to open that can'o'worms? Because it occurs to me that I wouldn't know where to start, and that usually means I can waffle on FOREVER. Can we narrow the parameters at all? Any that you want elaboration on or struck you for some reason?

bitterlimetwist August 17 2011, 22:02:22 UTC

Hah, no. I mean intimidated in that you're so freakin' talented, and just generally awesome.(And okay, if I didn't know you, your double guns icon would scare me. ;p)

"that usually means I can waffle on FOREVER."

Really? You do remember who you're talking to here? Besides, you'd be telling me all about yourself, and I'd really love that.

But okay, I'll make it easier for you.
1. The icon from OTP and Love: details are important. I don't know where that one's from, so I can't figure it out.
2. Happiest icons - no idea where those are from either.
3. Describe yourself. Um, all of these? I'd like to know what they mean to you. (And I'm curious if I've interpreted them right.)

I'm rather demanding, aren't I? I'll STFU now.

Ha! Well, to put your mind at ease, I'm not a gun girl. And thanks for making it a little easier for me! It's so much simpler when people are demanding ;)

The "details" icon is from The Hurt Locker, which I went on about rather a lot about here. (There are Much Spoiler in that post, though. And another quick little post flailing about Jensen comparing the character from the film to Dean's early S6 experience.) The image itself is the main character, Sgt James, disarming a bomb. Which is what he does. If you read my post on the movie, you'll understand why I put it as an OPT! (I'm assuming Jayne/Hat and Jayne/guns need no explanation? :D)

The first happiest icon is Simon Amstell from a British music pop quiz called Never Mind the Buzzcocks. He's ... awesome. And brilliantly snarky. I'm pretty sure that expression in that moment was sarcastic, actually, but he makes it all so fun that it works anyway. The other icon is a detail from John Singer Sargent's Capri. He's one of my favourite painters. Didn't have much more reason beyond ( ... )
