This is fantastic

Found this on my cousins blog. What? I know! My cousin has a blog! It is a lot of fun.

...and this is a lot of fun. Because, normally it is all about you guys answering stuff. But now, if you comment, I answer stuff.

Number 7 is quite the tricky little....trick....

Post a comment and...

  1. I'll respond with something random about you.

  2. I'll tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.

  3. I'll say something that only makes sense to you and me.

  4. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you.

  5. I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.

  6. I'll ask you something that I've always wondered about you.

  7. If I do this for you, you must post this on your journal.

    So instead of working on distinction these last 3 hours I have been reading my cousins blog. shit.

    Well, this sounds like a lot fun. I've heard of a slightly different version of it somewhere else... though I can't seem to remember where.

    Let's hear it, Benjamin!

    I am so excited about this. Its a great idea!

    Ok, I want to know! And, I have to admit, I saw Shakira's "Hips don't lie" video, and, well... she's growing on me. If she'd teach me to dance, I'd love her forever.

  5. Sailing Master Keri 40

    28 March 2006 01:21pm UTC

    This is a great idea! And I agree with Carpenter Courtney, the new Shakira videos are great!

  6. First Mate Beca 6

    28 March 2006 03:28pm UTC

    so, I am curious.

    Also, listen to the Dirty Dancing Havana Nights soundtrack, Shakira's new song will sound familiar.

    This is a fantastic idea. But I'm a little worried about #6.

    This meme is not annoying at all! XD And I really want to know all these things what you think of me.

    Since I missed the last Buffy, I'm going to look it up on Television Without Pity, and I'm not going to read ahead!

    I want to know that stuff! This sounds like fun! I don't have a journal on which to post it though... :-(

  10. Your favorite cousin

    29 March 2006 01:42pm UTC

    (except for Maxx and Martha, who must also be pretty cool as far as cousins go).

    So you spent three hours reading my blog? That's amazingly awesome. Learn anything new?

  11. Siren Sasha 62

    29 March 2006 05:30pm UTC

    This sounds very interesting. But I have to agree with Blair, I'm a little worried about #6.

    Looks like you've got a lot of writing to do!

    30 March 2006 12:09am UTC

    Alright! Here I go!

    Omer:
    1. You: "My mom and Rod are coming." Me: "Who the hell is Rod?"
    2. "Under your spell." From the Buffy musical.
    3. I wonder how the paths on campus came into being...
    4. LOB is the best group ever. Though really number 3 is probably more firsty than this one. Practically anything from our fye will answer this question.
    5. A ferret. or a lemur. I don't even know what a lemur is. Some kind of cat? It just seems like you.
    6. How can you possibly not notice cute girls when they walk by.

  14. Dread Pirate Benjamin 1

    30 March 2006 12:11am UTC

    Astronomer Katelin:
    1. You like to burn your food.
    2. Dirty Dancing Havana Nights.
    3. Remember that girl that would dance alone at cowboys?
    4. Talking about a crush of yours freshman year at the Loomis front desk.
    5. A rabbit.
    6. Do you have any regrets about your time spent in Australia?

    Carpenter Courtney:
    1. My Sophomore year here I went in to talk to Jonathan Bredin about maybe taking his Distributed Systems class without the prerequisites and he advised me against it. Then I found out you were taking it without the prerequisites and I was pissed. But it turns out, it didn't look like very much fun. I still wish I could have been in it with you. We could have commiserated together.
    2. "Go Bananas! Go, Go Bananas!".
    3. Birthday cakes with soap in them.
    4. Probably the third extreme reading meeting, and you were there. You were the only member besides Omer, Mike and I that actually came. It was great!
    5. A cat. A house cat. Without a doubt.
    6. Do you hate me because I missed out on those nights downtown the last couple weeks?

  16. Dread Pirate Benjamin 1

    30 March 2006 12:20am UTC

    Sailing Master Keri
    1. You don't like playing games with omer and me.
    2. Titanic.
    3. "I feel terrible."
    4. Trying to get Omer to remember your name. "Curly Keri".
    5. A mouse.
    6. How come you are pure evil?

  17. Dread Pirate Benjamin 1

    First Mate Beca
    1. You have a bright pink room. That was kind of forced upon you.
    2. The Little Mermaid.
    3. Guess What?
    4. Getting that first letter from you in the mail.
    5. A puppy.
    6. What was has been the most akward encounter between the two of us over the last 7 years (we've had a few)?

  18. Dread Pirate Benjamin 1

    Swabbie Scabbie
    1. You have been acting in highly suspicious behavior. And are also a role model for some of your recent actions.
    2. The little mermaid because of your bed spread. And also Ice Princess, because you were so opposed to it, which really seemed to go against everything I thought about you.
    3. "What the fuck are you talking about?". Which I guess makes sense to Omer too.
    4. Trying to learn how to pick locks together in Slocum.
    5. An orangoutang.
    6. How come your arms are so big?

    The Anonymous Poppy
    1. In Mathematical Analysis the topic of fanfiction came up and I said I was curious about Harry Potter fanfiction, and you sent me, what must have been a 3 page email with lots of suggestions and comments about each suggestion. I was so impressed with how willing and excited you were about it and that you did it so thoroughly. It was a lot of fun.
    2. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, but with that other guys narrating.
    3. Penji. The greatest ship (is that the correct lingo?) of all time. Not the well known Penji, though.
    4. When we were in Linear Algebra I asked you a question about the homework and you didn't seem very excited about me asking you questions about the homework. I thought you hated me.
    5. A squirrel.
    6. How come you are filled with so many contradictions (as per our conversation last night)?

  20. Boatswain The Fool 2

    30 March 2006 12:57am UTC

    In answer to your question in number 6 to me, Benjamin: it is deeply related to the question you asked in your number 6 to Keri.

  21. Carpenter Courtney 46

    30 March 2006 01:51am UTC

    Re: hating you for not going downtown. No, of course not. But I wouldn't eat any cupcakes from me, either. ;)

  22. The Anonymous Poppy 53

    30 March 2006 01:52am UTC

    Responses:
    1. Did you actually read any of those recs? ('Cause every once in a while I think of recing you a BtVS story, and then I think, No, he's not really the fic type of fan.)
    2. That was Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
    3. Truly, the greatest ship ever.
    You could also say 'ship, with an apostrophe at the beginning, but that's a little old-school. In the sense that it's outdated. (What well-known Penji are you referring to?)
    4. I probably hated the homework.

    6. Um... I think if I knew the answer to that then I wouldn't be.

    Quartermaster Lisa:
    1. Out of everyone I know you have known me the longest.
    2. The Mighty Ducks.
    3. Those candle games were a little ridiculous.
    4. Shit. That's tough. Earliest distinct memory: playing bloody murder on the car in front of your house and you having to go to bed.
    5. An armadillo.
    6. Why do you consider yourself a quartermaster?

  24. Dread Pirate Benjamin 1

    30 March 2006 03:24am UTC

    My favorite Cousin:
    1. I thought you were a real studious gal. But it sounds like you like studying about as much as I do. Which just makes my day. But it just goes to show that I apparently don't know you at all! but I guess that makes sense, since we only see each other, what? 2 times a year?
    2. I associate Christmas music with you and your household.
    3. Hot dog (or was it Corn dog) boy!
    4. Boy, this question isn't an easy one to answer. You have existed in my life as far back as my memory goes. My earliest, clearest memory is playing hide and go seek type games at Grandpa Denny's house.
    5. An owl.
    6. Are you uncomfortable about me reading your blog? because I'm really enjoying it.

  25. Dread Pirate Benjamin 1

    30 March 2006 03:24am UTC

    Siren Sasha:
    1. Apparently I scarred you for life as an R.A.
    2. Top Secret.
    3. Perhaps you should move your bed away from the wall.
    4. Playing on the 3 West Pirates intramural soccer team.
    5. A Badger.
    6. Did you know when you skipped Dawson's Creek what would happen over at Omer's? and did you know that because you skipped Dawson's creek we can never be friends again? The betrayal goes that deep.

    Robert:
    1. It really makes you feel uncomfortable when people reach into your pocket to pull out your packet watch.
    2. That Movie we made in 9th grade and you were the voice of Darth Vader. Too bad we didn't finish it.
    3. Remember that time I locked my keys in the car and it was still running? No one else would get that. Unless Slade comes again. Shit.
    4. Playing on the Laurelhurst Pirates together.
    5. A mole. If you think about a figurative mole, it is perfect!
    6. How come you are never online anymore? We used to chat all the time!

  27. Dread Pirate Benjamin 1

    30 March 2006 03:40am UTC

    And I agree with Keri and Courtney! Shakira's new video rocks!

  28. Your favorite cousin

    30 March 2006 03:53am UTC

    3--It was corn dog boy!!!! Hey, in other news I recently taught a bunch of kids "bear, cowboy, ninja."

    4--My earliest memory of you is DEFINITELY at Grandad's house. I remember us climbing around on that wood pile and getting splinters. Oh, and those blue t-shirts we all wore with the coyote on them that said "yippee ka yai ochoco" or something like that.

    6--Not at all uncomfortable. Although I do have to say, you now know more about my "secret life" as a college student than any other member of my family. Including Maxx, with whom I'm generally pretty open.

    "bear, cowboy, ninja"? Benji,you must share your family secrets with us.

    hey buddy! hope you're having a good week. can't wait to see what you write. ;)

    31 March 2006 01:51am UTC

    hey, so I am posting a comment-- I know it is a little late. I've been reading the other posts. This is very cool.

  32. Quartermaster Lisa __default

    31 March 2006 02:08am UTC

    Well I have to say that that was not nearly as fun as I thought it would be! I already knew most of that stuff! And that #6 question is crap, will you give me a good one. In response to it though, I have no idea why I am a quartermaster. I picked it when you started the website forever ago. I guess it sounded the coolest.

  33. Completely in love with Benjamin 51

    31 March 2006 09:15pm UTC

    I need to check your website more often.

  34. Slade

    2 April 2006 07:07am UTC

    I don't know how many people read my website anymore, but I'm in.

    And, I'm curious.

    So, do me next.

    Cabin Boy Farluffo:
    1. You are the reason why I am a better person now than I was a year ago.
    2. Spiderman.
    3. I don't remember their names. But we had names for some girls this last summer.
    4. I went over to hit on Lisa freshman year and she was like "this is my boyfriend." Shit!
    5. A goat.
    6. How come you told Omer about us spying on him that one time outside the french house?
