1. Reply to this post with I AM SPARTACUS, 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 glee!

From [livejournal.com profile] lady_ganesh over on LJ, who picked:



Muppet news guy
I don't remember what crazy thing Beck had said, but I had just made a bunch of caps from our Muppets videos, and realized that he was really only appropriate as a slap-stick gag on the Muppet Show. It was my favorite icon to use on the rare occasions I commented over in [livejournal.com profile] ontd_political, and I made a bunch of other in the news icons from the base, but they're all kind of dated right now. I need to make ones with Michelle Bachman and Ron Paul.

with the press
Yelena Rossini from Transmetropolitan. Which if you haven't read it, you should.

valkyrie
Maude from Big Lebowski during the Dude's dream sequence.

angelfish
So long ago, I did a webcomic. One of the strips was a character named Angel (based on a RL friend)repeatedly hitting himself on the head with a fish (honestly it was funnier in context). [livejournal.com profile] hanashibeta animated it. I had to steal it back.

elephant
Back when I was actively doing LJ RP we used to hang out in chat and basically use it as a dressing room. Often someone would go "poof now everyone's character is their opposite gender, or "poof, now everyone is dressed as a Japanese schoolgirl". I was playing Koumyou and Goku and didn't really like playing them in chat, because Koumyou's too laid back as a character, and Goku derails eveything. So on one occasion during "poof, now everyone's a catboy" I decided ok, Goku is now a catboy. So I had him run off to bring presents back to Sanzo, and he brought back an elephant. No one poked me about it again though XD

NO! I AM SPARTACUS!!

Hey, we poked you about it plenty! Where else would you have gotten the quote for that icon? XD But you and Tenpou were always so busy. ;P

Bachmann and Paul scare me. All the GOP candidates scare me, except maybe Huntsman, and even he isn't exactly grade-A material. I have never envied your dual-citizenship so much.

Ugh, took, waaaaay longer to get back to do this then I thought I would.

Ok, I should have qualified by saying, certain people didn't pressure me to play again, not that the rest of you didn't find my response hysterical ;D

I'm really just appalled that they're not written of as the crackpots they are, that the state of journalism in this country is so pisspoor, that the MSM ignores when they say really inflammatory, treasonous things, in favor of calling Obama a fascist socialist.

I realized over the weekend that I can actually go to Canada if I ever have a health crisis. I was all one less thing to keep me up at night yay! Now to auction off who gets to marry me between my friends.

I realized when I was trying to pick icons, just how many I was in chat with you while you were making them. XD

Real life ate me. -_- Well, real life and these fucking cosplays. Y U HAET ME, MERRILL???

*ahem* Apologies. Yes. Goku bringing back the elephant was hilarious. Not sure whether than or catboy!Sanzo was weirder, though. But of all our whitespace insanity, gotta say pillbug!Kanan was my favorite.

I know, right? But the MSM and a good portion of voters are just too biased themselves (and I admit to my own bias, which... at the moment is mostly 'all politicians suck ass' but still a bias) to see that everything these people are spouting off is BAD SHIT. Even ignoring the things that are downright designed to ruin our country (no, totally, who needs the EPA or NASA or Social Security or, hell, the awful OBAMACARE trying to make sure people don't go bankrupt from a health emergency. SOCIALISM!!!!!1ichi) I mean... some of the things they say... Michelle Bachmann advocating that vaccines cause mental retardation? Every single one of them saying that government should keep out of people's business... but then advocating a CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT to ban gay marriage? Guys? Guys, you can hear yourselves, right?

Ha! I bet you were. I haven't made nearly as many icons lately as I used to, and a good deal of mine are from old RP accounts, which... well, you saw most of those. XD I swear I'll get the post talking about these up eventually. I actually have another installment of WTF Ticket Responses that needs to go up, too.

Of course he brought back an elephant.

I've read some of Transmetropolitan, someone kept unloading it at the used bookstore. Should probably buy some of my own one of these days.

He was so proud of it, and how can you say no to that face.

I highly recommend Transmet. There are days when I'm convinced that Warren Ellis can see into the future.

Sanzo certainly can't.

Plus, I would fucking kill for a bowel disruptor.

And now my brain is imagining Sanzo getting his hands on a bowel disruptor. He would make such an interesting Spider...

I'm such a failure at getting things written XD. I need to figure out a better way to pimp plot bunnies to other people.
