Having already blogged about the "Dumbledore Outed!" story, here's something a little more lighthearted and fun:

Time for an icon meme! This one came from [profile] rosevixen .

Comment on this post. I'll choose seven userpics from your profile and you'll reply here (or you know, your own journal, whichever), explaining what they mean and why you're using them. Post this along with your answers in your own journal so others can play along.

1. Yzma Not Amused



This is Yzma, the Emperor's adviser. Living proof that dinosaurs once roamed the Earth. She's supposed to be the bad guy from "The Emperor's New Groove," but she often finds herself in rather humorous/embarrassing situations (hence, the ridiculous sombrero). I have this one because: a) This is one of my favorite Disney movies. b) I am often "Not Amused." (That's actually where part of my username came from. IRL, I would sometimes say "The Cat is not amused," quoting a Garfield comic strip. "Cat" turned into "Wildcat" and.... I'll tell you the rest some other time.)

2. Six Hours Later



Solitaire: the Non-Cure for Writer's Block (okay, for me, it's Spider Solitaire). That's one of the problems with writing on a computer: Writer's block sets in and I start playing, thinking that inspiration will come to me, but it never does. Used for those times when I'm just too bored to care.

3. Lady Liberty



I'm a rather patriotic person and Lady Liberty is one of the best symbols of this great country we live in (shut up, America is great). It was between this and an icon of Ronald Reagan superimposed on an American flag. But I love the look Lady L. has on her face. It's a cross between "Yeah, you're a friend" and "Threaten my country? Open up the can of whupa**"

4. Pirates Weirdness



When something is just too weird for your own words, let Captain Jack Sparrow spell it for you. I often quote this myself IRL because it's just such a classic quote.

5. Jack Can't Die



Because I have a limited number of icon space (I'm too cheap to spring for a paid account), I have to get in as many of my fandoms as I can. This is a reference of both Harry Potter and 24. Short explanation: Horcruxes are items that someone has placed a piece of their soul into. As long as at least one of your Horcruxes exists, you can't die. The way you make a Horcrux is you kill someone, which, the act of murder is serious enough to split your soul. Because Jack Bauer makes his living by killing terrorists, he probably has a bunch of Horcruxes hidden somewhere, so he'll never die (kind of a crack-cross-fandom theory, but it's crazy enough to work).

6. Gryffindor Saddles Up



Again, doubling up fandoms (well, sort of). I'm a Gryffindor (that being one of the Hogwarts Houses in Harry Potter) and Gryffindors are described as being brave and courageous and chivalrous and a few other things. This quote is from John Wayne, one of my favorite old school actors (yeah, Owen Wilson's kinda played a lot of cowboys lately, but John Wayne is the bona fide original). This is my default icon, since this blog for me is all about writing what I think and believe, a lot of which is highly unpopular and it takes courage for me to do that.

7. Cause I Said So



Ah, yes. Sailor Moon was my first anime EVER! (thank you Cartoon Network - say what you will about the English dub, but it'll hold a special place in my heart *tear*). I haven't actually watched it in years (though I recently found the manga online). Anywho, Princess Serenity is usually portrayed as being very dignified and cute (and a little bit of a doormat, if you want my honest opinion - considering that Sailor Moon in the present day really kicks butt. Shut up, she does), but this time, she's being stubborn and kind of belligerent and that made me chuckle. Plus, I could use an icon that just flat out tells it like it is, just "'Cause I said so!"

Now, whoever wants to can comment and I'll pick some icons for you! This was a lot of fun! But now, it's dinner time.
