Unofficial Etiquette Pollage
Jun. 1st, 2009 02:28 pmAfter hearing a discussion on the radio about table manners and cultural/national ways of eating, I got curious and decided to ask you guys about it. According to the program, there is more than one way people in Western countries use a knife while eating. I did not know this, which shows just how much I don't know about culture.
So anyway, a poll:

Jan. 7th, 2009 03:22 amNBC: Ann Coulter not banned from Today Show
See, I have this theory about Ann Coulter, which is that she might not be the conservative blowhard she wants us to believe she is.
Maybe she's a "conservative author" in the way Stephen Colbert is a conservative talk-show host. Only she's more clandestine and wants to plant herself firmly in the midst of the ultra-right lunatic fringe and thereby parodize them in such a way that they can't say a thing about it without looking like idiots.
Because if she really IS like her persona, she's pretty much an idiot. And if she's really a liberal plant, she's way, way clever in the way she does it.
And now, a poll!

Mom puts bullying daughter in her place. I don't know how I feel about this. On the one hand, school bullying needs to be stopped, like last century. On the other, isn't this just another form of bullying? It's kind of a scarlet letter. - If you like new music (and by 'new' I mean 'stuff you might not know' as opposed to 'stuff written yesterday') and you haven't done it yet, go join

lunatunes. This week's theme is Canadian music, and no, I didn't suggest it. :P. - I'm in the middle of a massive triage of my wardrobe. Dude, there are clothes in my closet I haven't warn since the early nineties at the latest. Also I have a whole pile of skirts that are designed to look like hippie-chic but instead serve to make me look like Mother Hubbard. The Salvation Army will be happy to get all of these, I'm hoping. They're in good shape.
- This wants to inspire a fic. I don't want it to. *resists* :

Thanks tosdwolfpup for even more fic inspirationthe link: - aingeal8c has posted the second annual Big dS LJ Fandom Poll. She's trying to garner info on the State of The Fandom '07. Go help her out, if you haven't already. It's fun and painless. *g*
- My writer's block is definitely over, but still needs a jump start. I think people missed this last time I posted it, so I'll try again:
Name a character and I'll tell you three (or more) facts about them from my own personal pseudocanon. .
Yes, it's time for More Random Things You Probably Don't Care About!
- ( Spilling Genetic Material vs. Spilling the Blood of Thousands )
- ( Democracy is coming to the USA )
- ( Patriotic songs poll )
- and finally, a cool little meme:
Reply to this and I will:
1) Tell you why I friended you.
2) Associate you with a song/movie.
3) Tell a random fact about you.
4) Tell my first memory of you.
5) Associate you with an animal/fruit.
6) Ask something I've always wanted to know about you.
Reposting in your own LJ is encouraged, but not insisted upon. :) - Okay, must go. Off to songdog's house!
