audience participation required!

Got this from Dariush Shafa:

It's an unusual meme in the sense that it needs audience participation.

Here's the deal. If you comment here:

1. I'll respond with something random about you.
2. I'll challenge you to try something.
3. I'll pick a color that I associate with you.
4. I'll tell you something I like about you.
5. I'll tell you my first/clearest memory of you.
6. I'll tell you what animal you remind me of.
7. I'll ask you something I've always wanted to ask you.
8. I'll pick a song that reminds me of you.

And how does this propagate?

Well, u drop me a comment, I'll respond with those 8 points, and in "payment" YOU post this same deal on YOUR blog.

Kinda cool, eh?

I'm wondering how this will turn out.. so come on, get those comments in!

cheers!

  3. Adam> heehehe well glad u overcame yr hatred for memes for this most unusual one! :-) It is, after all, a great challenge for me... but let's see how this goes...

    1. RANDOM: You helped me educate myself a bit more on the "i love you" vs "satanic" sign on a recent post

    2. CHALLENGE: this is a bit of a cheat cos it was featured prominently by Dariush: i challenge u to post just a wee bt more often that u have in the past. *grin!*

    3. COLOR: blue. like the logo that appears on the tab when i load your blog page :-) used to say "OK" (or was it OK LAH?) and now is juat "A")

    4. LIKE: i like the simplicity of your posts. i feel you're writing for yourself, as opposed to posturing for what you think "people out there" want to read.

    5. MEMORY: Stumbling across yr blog while checking out the MyCen blog directory.

    6. ANIMAL: tough one, seeing as i don't usually associate people with animals, heeehhee!

    7. QUESTION: what on earth is that picture u use as your blogger avatar?

    8. SONG: gotta be Hotel California by the Eagles.. but the live version from teh Hell Freezes Over album (i *assume* that's the album u got cheap-cheap? that's the only live version i know, and i'm amazed u haven't heard that version before).

    (if these responses are weird, it's not *just* the meme or just me... it's me plus vodka plus Milli Vanilli, heehehehe!!)

  4. SG> i figured you'd be the first to comment on this one, was totally surprised Adam beat ya to it! :-) here goes...

    1. RANDOM: I was kinda jealous that kevin had dropped a line in your blog (and not mine) about the Lost Bloggers thingy.. but hey, i participated anyway and found a bunch of kewl bloggers to add to my list, whoohooo!

    2. CHALLENGE: I challenge ya to look for the silver lining in any/every cloud that comes your way (okay so u do that most of the time, but you've been down recently, so maybe this'll help?)

    3. COLOR: ummm.. grey?

    4. LIKE: I like that you take the time to drop a comment almost every time u visit.

    5. MEMORY: Stumbling across ya via Opty's blog: noticing ya precisely because u had a [supportive] comment in practically every post she had at that time :-)

    6. ANIMAL: errr... that Hush Puppy type dawg that's currently on yr blog?

    7. QUESTION: what ultimately caused the divorce? [as if there's ever just one simple answer, i know... ]

    8. SONG: urgh somehow this is tough.. no one song in particular.. i do remember that you had a COOL "oldies" playlist on your iPod tho :D

I'd love to hear from you, drop me a comment.
