The interests meme!

[bliumchik]

backinblackbackinblack  asked me about:

abattoir tea parties: Um. This is one of those interests that seemed like a good idea at the time. It probably stemmed from one of those bizarre late night comment threads that get weird, but I'm buggered if I can remember which.
old british navy uniforms: One word - Hornblower. Ioan Gruffud in a navy coat and tricorner hat is simply meltworthy. I hear there might be a movie! Still just a rumour but eee.
post-apocalyptic survival scenarios: They're just, you know. Fun. This was always my favourite fantasy, ever since I was a kid. Back then it was floods, these days it's zombie hordes (see below).
really creepy poetry: I love it. Both reading it and writing it. Why on earth wouldn't you?
the perks of socialism: Are sundry and glorious. Truth, Justice, freedom, Reasonably Priced Love, And A Hard Boiled Egg.
transmetropolitan: An excellent sciffy comic about journalism, politics and utter bastards, written by Warren Ellis. I think the first issue is legitimately free online somewhere, but take my word that it is awesome.
zombie contingency plans: This interest serves a dual purpose. The first: A short story by the glorious Kelly Link (you can read her stuff here). It made me shiver, and then squee. The second: One day I picked up the Zombie Survival Guide for five bucks in a damaged goods sale. I immediately began planning my actions in the event of a zombie apocalypse, and find it a comfort and boredom relief in queues and on buses. I started a whole big plan for my school, but as I've not gotten round to it and school is over (FOREVAR) I suppose I'll just get on with the one for my house and the Big One (see post-apocalyptic...).

Comment and I'll pick seven interests for you to explain on your journal.

Also, read this little article, it's hilarious.

that's less socialism and more... THE PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF COMPUTER ROOM 3, if memory serves me right we were more fascist. Heh.

post-apocalyptic survival scenarios: ... This was always my favourite fantasy, ever since I was a kid.

Okay, I'm not even going to comment on that one. *is worried now*

Similar thoughts on the article, though the line "We believe that Iranians will like any group of Americans that doesn't try to kill them." was quite amusing. :)

Lol, hands-off policy indeed. *snickers*
