Memetravaganza!

[whynot]

"Here're your names..."
The creator, uh, linked back to a protected entry... but you can also find the code here. So. Reservoir Dogs. I just watched it last night. Damn. Harvey Keitel is the man. Steve Buscemi was awesome. Tim Roth was hot and Quentin Tarantino's chin is huuuuuuge. He and Jay Leno should go head to head.

Yeah, move over, Ebert & Roeper.

The fic titles meme I gacked from vagabond_sal and the fic summaries meme I yoinked from pogrebin. The lyrics meme I onomatopoeiasoundeffectsed from EVERYBODY.



Point A to Point A . Fight Club . I'm picky about titles and I was really nitpicky about this one, 'cos writing this fic was all sweat, blood, and tears, and bending over backwards. I'm still not ecstatic about the title, but it'll do. So, it's not called Point A to Point B because then it implies progress. And... stuff.

Tyler: Honey, I'm home.
Narrator: Uh. *fucks Marla*
Narrator: Okay, now which of you is giving me the blow job?


A Glove With the Fingers Withdrawn . X2 . It was the journal name of someone on my RL LJ is how I came across it. I like the image. It's a humble image. A humbled image. A feeling like things have been lost and are not right.

Bobby: *shags Rogue*
Bobby: *shags John*
John: Hehe.
Rogue: *ANGSTS*


A Guide to Modern Living . Gossip/Boondock Saints . Sometimes what I do when I'm trying to find a title is I make a list of images and themes that reflect the story. For this one, words like 'city' and 'urban' popped up, and still I got nothing. It was a series of boring, mundane things led me to choose this for a title. It's also the title of a book of Oscar Wilde quotations.

Connor: Murphy?
Travis: No.
Connor: Murphy?
Travis: No.
Connor: Murphy?
Travis: No.
Connor: New York's a nifty place, in't it?
Travis: Totally.


Static Noise . Captain Planet . The characters I write tend to be in this static place, between things, in transit, on the way. So, y'know. The title.

Everybody: Captain Planet, he's our hero-
Wheeler: No he's not.


Three, Two, One . Gossip . One of my lamest titles. The fic had a countdown motif. So.

Travis: I'm not gay.
Derrick: Hahaha.


Motion Blur . LOTRips . The fic talked a lot about movement and the lack thereof, literally and figuratively.

Elijah: *shags Dom*
Elijah: *shags Viggo*
Elijah: *ANGSTS*
Viggo: wtf, i want to emote, too.
Lassiter: We'll give you a... Moment at the end. How's that?
Viggo: kewliez. *has a Moment with Elijah*


Reruns & Lawsuits . Troy RPS . The title's something Brad says in the fic. I just wanna do the summary.

Orlando: *is horny*
Brad: *is snarky*
LOTRips: *is referenced*


Sunshadow . X2 . I was going through a phase where I was reeeeally into sun imagery.

Mystique: Venice is a nifty place, in't it?
John: I hate you.



the ubiquitous lyrics meme!

1. you should just go home and spend a lifetime finding out just where that is
2. a reason to start over new and the reason is you
3. you brighten my life like a polystyrene hat
4. i should've known from the start before you got in my heart
5. morning smiles like the face of a newborn child
6. i'm going to wichita
7. please don't take him even though you can
8. love's a raven when it flies
9. tell me that the stars are made of tin and that they're banging on the roof
10. back down the bully to the back of the bus 'cos it's time for them to be scared of us
11. in an imploding star or a burned out car, i implore you/in a carbon-arc or a dim lit park, i implore you

Okay, 11's it, 'cos I'm done. Guess guess guess which songs they're from from from!

oh, and while you're talking about Reservoir Dogs, weren't Mr. White and Mr. Orange so doing it?

I remember reading like, the ONLY RD slash out there once. Wait. ::googles:: There. (http://debchan.com/movie/becoming.html)

Now tell me how much I rock, ya?

You rock like a bench with one leg missing.

[twoskeletons.livejournal.com]

omg. I... I clicked on the link, right? Then I started reading it... and it didn't suck, not bad, not bad... and then, I kept on reading it and OH MY GOD I CAN'T DO IT. I CAN'T READ ORANGE/WHITE SLASH, I CAN'T, I TRIED, I CAN'T, i'msorry. *cowers in corner*

White and Orange are like... like Sam and Frodo to me. What I mean is, the relationship between Orange and White is already so... wow and twisted and rich and great that slashing them would be... le shrugge, it doesn't work for me. I appreciate the gesture, though, so, thank you.

*squints* That's a Reservoir Dogs icon?

Re: You rock like a bench with one leg missing.

[mumblemutter.livejournal.com]

but...but...but! okay, i see what you're getting at here. i'm still waiting for the PERFECT slash story of theirs, which isn't going to come anytime soon so maybe that's because it was never meant to be written, huh? I have hope though. and patience.

that, my friend, is tim roth and harvey keitel. kissing? almost. hey, if you can't slash the characters, slash the people. have you ever read BDS rps?

[twoskeletons.livejournal.com]

RPS is a great way to cheat, in't it? I bet one of the reasons LOTRips is so popular is that LOTR itself has too much canon to handle. All the pretteh and male-bonding had to go somewhere, y'know?

I've come across flandus, but never really did find any piece of fic there that struck my fancy, so I gave up on it pretty quick.

[mumblemutter.livejournal.com]

it's been said that lotrips is the fandom that made so many anti-rps people do an about face, so yeah. omg pretty! omg slash! omg...tolkienmeep? omg...rps!

hmm. i remember a while back at least three people on my friends list were writing bds rps, but i don't remember being THAT into it, because i can hardly remember the names of the characters, let alone the actors that played them.

But one of them's your icon! Up there! *points at Norman Reedus!*
Who, yeah, looks like a drowned rat half the time, but, y'know, whatever. Norman Reedus!

[mumblemutter.livejournal.com]

i know! and just...yesterday i was commenting to a reply in my journal, from someone who asked me who that person was. and i went...urm. urm. he's connor, and then i thought, no wait, he's MURPHY! i think i wrote my one and only bds fic as "connor" first, with murphy the drowned rat's face in my head. urm, yeah.

[lite-bright.livejournal.com]

Reservoir Dogs! Yaay!

Um...I shouldn't be that cheerful about that movie, I really shouldn't. I mean, it's a bunch of murderers...wait, that's not a reason to be all mourn-y. Fictional murderers are good. and sometimes, really cool, I'm looking at you, Mr. Blonde.

[twoskeletons.livejournal.com]

Reservoir Dogs! Yaay!
eXACTly.

Fictional murderers are good.
Such stuff as film snobs are made of. :)

Connor: Murphy?

Ahahahahahaha!

So, you did notice how Keitel and Roth were like, so gay?

[twoskeletons.livejournal.com]

Naw, I wasn't feeling it. Their love or whatever is like... deep and off-kilter, man. But I wouldn't slash them. They're awesome as they are and I don't want to mess with that. There's a link to Orange/White slash a few comments up if you're interested. Actually my slashdar was pretty dormant throughout the whole movie.

As I'm typing this, there's a Tim Roth movie on TV called "Jumpin' At the Boneyard" and damn, man. He's really good with accents. I'm envious.

[surichan.livejournal.com]

You mean you just saw RD for the first time? Maaaan. Tim Roth is hot, isn't he? Love Mr. Orange with big, big love.

[twoskeletons.livejournal.com]

The ending, man. I love that it had the guts to do that to Orange and White. omg.

You mean you just saw RD for the first time?
Heh. Yeah. I'm hip like that.
