it's really too bad i can never think of interesting things to post!

I don't suppose anyone would like to help me brainstorm ideas for what to name my new (warranty replacement) iPod???? I SUCK AT THIS, I ended up haaaaaaating my last iPod name (Lefou, to go with Gaston the laptop) AND YOU GUYS... DON'T SUCK AT THIS?

P.S. I am kind of upset about the del.icio.us redesign, but not nearly as upset as I am about the fact that it is no longer del.icio.us, BUT INSTEAD delicious.com. I... WHAT. WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT? I'M SO NOT OKAY WITH IT. Not on, del.icio.us people. NOT. ON.

I DON'T HAVE AN INSTANT MESSENGER? I'M SORRY? I'M SUFFERING WITHOUT MY LAPTOP TOO?


(ALSO: YOU ARE NO HELP.)

PS YOU COULD NAME IT LUMIERE! OR WHATEVER THE TEAPOT'S NAME IS. MRS. TEAPOT? I DUNNO OKAY.

Also, I'm unsure why I was writing in all caps. Shoot me now!

TY, A LITTLE BRAINSTORMING IS ALL I WAS ASKING. I don't know if I want to keep with the Beauty and the Beast theme, though? I CANNOT DECIDE. Lumiere is a good name though. IDK, I ENDED UP REGRETTING LEFOU. It was always very "shit, self, you named your iPod something really stupid. WHY?"

I've pretty much been FULL THROTTLE CAPSLOCK for an hour. It's super depressing. These lowercase letters are really relieved to see me.

Alex, I was so browsing your lj 5 minutes ago, wondering if you'd died.

I'm sorry about being douchey a while ago.

You should name it ummmm ummmmm, yeah I got nothing either. :(

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2008-08-02 03:08 am (UTC)(link)
I just didn't post for a week :( :( :(

It's okay! I was a little sad but I probably deserved it.

You're usually so good with names though.

I KNOW, but I don't know what you're looking for!

NAME IT SCULLY

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2008-08-02 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THIS IDEA IS THAT I'D BE SUPER SAD WHEN IT (INEVITABLY) DIED A TRAGIC DEATH?

...although I guess I could just name the one after it Mulder. HMMM.

My PC is named Fox but I am afraid to say that now because I DO NOT WANT TO GET THROWN DOWN AN ELEVATOR SHAFT D:

All my electronics have three-word names from various science fiction 'verses...Hex, Xev, Min, Pris (well, that was 4) and Fox.

I'm really bad at naming things, so I don't see myself being of any use to you. The thought of having to name a child? It is NOT going to be a pretty scene, that's for sure.

ANYWHO: I concur about delicious. I didn't even notice that they changed it to delicious.com though! EPIC FAIL. SERIOUSLY.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2008-08-02 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Oh goddd, the thought of naming children is MIND-BOGGLING. No wonder fictional character always name it ~in honor~ of someone.

DEL.ICIO.US was the coolest name, TOO! .coms are so... bland. Why would you do that?

[identity profile] superskittles76.livejournal.com 2008-08-02 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
NAME IT TUVOK. IT IS THE ONLY LOGICAL CONCLUSION :D

LOL

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2008-08-02 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
I LOVE YOU AND YOUR IDEAS.

[identity profile] tenacious-err.livejournal.com 2008-08-02 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
Any ideas about what you want to name it? Liz? Lemon? Ainsley? Sam? Mulder? Scully? Skinner? Hank? Karen? Jim? Pam? Michael? Dwight? Creed? Angela? Phyllis? Bob Vance? lol, idk.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2008-08-02 03:38 am (UTC)(link)
HA HA HA HA, WAY TO THROW IT ALL OUT THERE. You're so helpful!

Bob Vance and Lemon are both kind of adorably zany? Scully is already in the running now? AND HA, AINSLEY AND SAM. AUGH, WHY AM I SO INDECISIVE :(

[identity profile] tenacious-err.livejournal.com 2008-08-02 03:45 am (UTC)(link)
...Janeway is a good name, too. Lol I find a good way to pick fandom names is by looking at your icons? If you have an icon of someone you'll probably consider naming an object after it? I can't seem to stop using question marks?

I have never named anything in my entire life. I love names, but I'm much too indecisive. Like, when I'd write stories in primary school, I'd pick a bunch of names I loved and I couldn't pick between them, so I'd make the characters quadruplets so I could use them all. D: I AM SAD.

I should totally name my iPod, though. NOW YOU'LL HAVE TO HELP ME PICK AS WELL. I did think of Scully or Mulder, but if it broke, as you said, it would really be quite sad. D: THIS IS HARD. WHY'D YOU MAKE ME THINK OF THIS.

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2008-08-02 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Hahahaha, ME TOO. I used to make lists of names? I mean, could pick them for stories, but it was SUCH a process of elimination. I suppose I could just name it something randomly pretty that I never used?

YOU SHOULD. AND AUGH, THE RESPONSIBILITY OF TWO IPOD NAMES IS A LOT?

You (or I!) could name it after the gunmen.

...I SUDDENLY REALLY LIKE THAT IDEA.

LJ took literally 10 minutes to open this comment thread and then it ate my comment. Wtf, dude. I hope it doesn't then show up again - I hate that! AND NOW IT WON'T POST. W.T.F. ANYWAY I apologise for taking so long to reply. But in the meantime I utilised your Gillian Anderson tag and read through that, which was amusing. DD/GA > greater than everything. And this interview (http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/11903333.html#cutid1), omg. She's nuts, but in a good way - I can't help loving her.

AND I LAUGHED OUT LOUD at the thought of naming my iPod Frohike. That is really quite awesome. :D

Hey, I like the new [livejournal.com profile] homeby_five layout!

And as for names... ugh, I'm all named-out. And unable to think about much but X-Files and Gillian Anderson-related things. Um, Die Edith Wharton? Dewy for short? (LOL, just saw House of Mirth.) Or... Ahab? I DON'T KNOW. :-(

[identity profile] elapses.livejournal.com 2008-08-05 12:34 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, thank you! I just finished it yesterday. Sam made the header.

AHAHAHA, oh. I couldn't finish that movie? The book is one of my absolute favorites (top 2) and oh god, Lily Bart is one of those characters for me, it's such a PERFECTLY CONSTRUCTED TRAGEDY. Anyway, even it was a book I love starring two women who are pretty much my very very favorite actresses (I love love love Laura Linney), I couldn't finish watching it play out on film.

This is so random, but I can't find that centaur story you wrote anymore, and I NEED IT. FOREVER. Please give me the link again? I even went back to [livejournal.com profile] smilescully to find it, but your comments were screened. :( :(
