So, I just saw a sheep on [livejournal.com profile] kneeshooters LJ and thought it looked like fun.

The little text boxy thing below just selects ten things from your interests list, gives you boxes to write in, and then writes the formatting stuff for you to paste into your LJ. Formatting could easily be done manually, but not using some form of random selection to get your ten is cheating :)

[Update: Actually, it selects 11. And then only formats 10 for you. The extra one is now included, since I'd written it anyway.]

I figure many of these don't need much in the way of explanation. So have some jottings, instead.

LJ Interests meme sheep results



  1. bendy swords:
    Swords that are bendy. And, er, not swords at all, really. Strips of sprung steel with handles on both ends. Blunt. Bad for beheading. Fortunately.
  2. cooking:
    I list "cooking" as an interest, but really I should list "eating". Liking cooking is really just a side-effect.
  3. goth:
    A bunch of people. Really. That's it. I think there might have been some music once. And some black, before the pink crept in.
  4. jack vettriano:
    Self-taught painter. Paints lots of wonderful, seedy, sordid, latenight scenes. It's probably not his fault that the only ones you ever see are the chocolate box kind which end up on greetings cards.
  5. magic:
    A source of wonder, a means of running your life, and a load of old bollocks. Yes, all of them.
  6. music:
    I'm interested in music. Kind of like I'm interested in breathing.
  7. northeast:
    Of England, that is. Still home to some of the best pubs, friendliest people and most spectacular scenery England has to offer. Also features affordable houses and good beer.
  8. peter warlock:
    20th century composer, really ought to be better known. Composed amazingly atmospheric church music, frivolous operetta-like songs about birthdays and all stages in between. Wrote the piece of music that I would like to walk down the aisle to, were I ever to get married.
  9. robert anton wilson:
    Scattershot writer and top-quality nutter. Wrote Illuminatus!, which contains so many contradictory ideas all shovelled on top of each other than some of them are bound to stick.
  10. sedition:
    A thing that can be fomented. Not, as the BBC had the other week, fermented. Have you ever noticed how some words only get used in one context ? You never foment anything except sedition. Like nothing other than ranks are ever serried.


Enter your LJ user name, and 10 interests will be selected from your interest list.





And the mysterious bonus interest:

11. winter

Look out of your window. That's winter. (Unless you're [livejournal.com profile] shrydar or someone equally prone to sedition (q.v.))

The best time of year; crisp, clear, sparkling and with gorgeous blue skies in the late afternoon.

Yes. And only tones can be dulcet.

Ooh, nice one. I describe tunes as jaunty, so wasn't quite convinced by the angle angle up there. Can't argue with dulcet, though.
