1. Leave me a comment if you want to do the meme.
2. I will reply with 6 of your icons and then you have to post this up and describe them!







THESE WERE facade's picks for me!



1. This is my favorite, favorite, favorite Pixar animated movie. No matter how many times I watch it, I always laugh out loud with all the different little interactions between the characters. And I just love the beautiful graphics done for the ocean. I mean, come on, it's so beautiful how they did it! Vibrant, colorful, imaginative. And the two in this icon might just be my very favorite of the whole movie. :)

2. Ohhhh Glee, how I miss thee. Sue Sylvester is so mad, like, crazy mad, yet so funny. I mean, come on, she's got some of the best lines of the entire cast! And really, the kitty cat she refers to in this quote correlates with nothing! But she'll get you that kitty cat and wait for you to fall in love with it, and then on one cold dark night she'll steal away into your home and PUNCH YOU IN THE FACE! LOL

3. I have NO idea if I ever saw this kool-aid commercial, but I love this .gif of it. I mean, come on - it's hilarious! He busts through the wall, and is all happy 'here's your awesome drink' and there's just, *silence* and he's all 'oops, my bad'. It reminds me of me. I'm sometimes very socially awkward and so I react almost the same way. *shrug*

4. MOOAAAAR COWBELL!!!!!!! oh SNL, you awesome awesome classic cast. When I saw this skit, I was in loooooove and once I joined LJ and started seeing such awesome animated icons, I HAD TO FIND ONE OF THESE. Interesting enough though, I went on an H/H chatroom on...meebo, I think, and asked for help in locating one because I was having NO LUCK, and I didn't know about all the cool LJ search engine sites out there like for instance, www.ljseek.com, etc etc. So I didn't find one until about 2 days later, after I'd even made an LJ post, pleading to the WORLD (lol, it was completely unlocked) and someone from the H/H board commented on my LJ after seeing my post on the H/H board. And she found THIS ONE, animated and all, and brilliant, and...wow I'm really hungry now...

5. hehe, I needed a 'surprised' icon, and this one, well, it just caught my eye because it reminded me of the legal side of my life, and I can't help but love it. So I saved this and it's stuck around for a while now. It really comes in handy too! LOL

6. hehehehehehe! MAMA! This old lady with ridiculous curled hair is known as 'Mama', from an eighties, early nineties show titled, Mama's Family. I used to watch it with my mom late at night, it was a comedy, and Mama was this sarcastic, mean old lady that would always huff and puff about how idiotic her family was, but she'd still (in the end) help them out or be there for them, even though they grated on her every nerve. She had...3 kids (I think, lol), the oldest was a stupid man 'Vinton' I think, and then there was the middle girl that was incredibly troublesome and a bit of a lady of the night type person (she just liked to go out and party and be irresponsible), and then there was the youngest girl who was patient and helpful and just, incredibly grounded. It's a great show, I wish I could get it on DVD. There were only 6 seasons, and I got to see them in all variations of order (which is to say, in no order at all) and enjoyed every time it came on TV! Seriously, fond memories.

And those are mine! None of you have to participate, I just love having visual memes, seeing icons and graphics and photographs are just cool to me, so yeah :)

I didn't know if you knew the origins of #3, which is why I picked it, lol. Only because it didn't seem like you'd be the type to watch the show it came from. It's actually a clip from the show, Family Guy. Here's the clip:

I'd like to participate! Please to pick icons for me to ramble on about! ♥

I loved Dory so much! And I completely agree with you about Finding Nemo. :)

I was about to point out the origin of the kool-aid icon myself. Since yeah, I doubt you've ever watched that show :)

I should have sent you the 'cowbell' from the Vancouver Olympics, lol. Though still not the same as SNL.

Also, that quote from Sue was great!

Hmm, what to say about the icons?

1. "The End" - this is technically an icon from the season 2 finale of Doctor Who, 'Doomsday'. A day full of angst for the fandom as Rose was no longer travelling with the doctor, ha - so for the maker I think that's what the text signified. For me, I took it as a good multi-purpose icon. It's fandom neutral for anybody who doesn't recognize the wall, and it can be used for finality on anything.

2. "Hi." Another Doctor Who icon :) The creepy alien scarecrows from season 3. Mostly it just amuses me. Plus, well, 'hi' is always pretty damn applicable and neutral when commenting to somebody.

3. "Naval Captain of a Land-locked country" - I never have cause to use this icon, and it saddens me. Seeing it now it also makes me wish I still had my "Bitch Plx" icon with the abbess from the Sound of Music loaded. Also it pretty much...just amuses me :) I like his dumbfounded look, and (at least what seems like) the ridiculousness of pointing out he's a head honcho of a navy...that borders no real water. Not that that neccessarily means anything IRL but whatever.

4. "The Dark Lord" - Um...draws a blank. It's a Harry Potter icon? Which still remains my biggest fannish interest? The icon amuses me, especially because I don't really picture Voldemort pimping it up in the books. Takeoff on the Devil Wears Prada it's a...good icon?

5. "The Awesomes" - quotation icon from How I Met Your Mother. I have a few of these, though not all uploaded. Though the show has gone downhill, it (and the character Barney) from the first few seasons are very quotable. This icon isn't funny in the same way as some of them, but very useful to have as an LJ icon. I can show my approval of things quite blatantly :)

6. "Pay Attention" - ah Disney icons. I love what's been done with something usually so innocent. Though this isn't dirty like all the 'butt sex' ones out there, ha. It's cute, and applicable. I don't really....use it. Still, I think I uploaded it because often I feel a bit invisible online - but since I don't try and demand attention myself...it's a contradiction.

Random rambling is random.
