Can you read this? Only 55 people on livejournal can. And I am included...

Nicked from [info]carly_sullivan

I cdnuolt blveiee that I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in waht oerdr the ltteres in a wrod are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae.

The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it whotuit a pboerlm. Tihs is bcuseae the huuamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? Yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt! If you can raed tihs rpsoet it.

ONLY REPOST IF YOU COULD READ THE ABOVE. Please update the number at the header to include yourself.

***

Of course, now I'm thinking here -- if I steal this from carly, and so do four other people, well, that's 59, and if each of them passes it to three people... that's 74, only each of the 15 who took it from us will say 56 instead. Now... how many people are we off by at the moment?

You Belong in Paris

You enjoy all that life has to offer, and you can appreciate the fine tastes and sites of Paris.
You're the perfect person to wander the streets of Paris aimlessly, enjoying architecture and a crepe.

Swiped Meme  
Gacked from [info]cormac.
Grab the nearest book. Open the book to page 123. Find the fifth sentence. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
Don't search around and look for the coolest book you can find. Do what's actually next to you.

*looks left to box of books waiting to be shelved* Nope, wouldn't be fair.
*looks right to trail of books looked at in past week* Encyclopedia, Latin Grammar, Irish Tour Guide... Ah, here we go.

"They looked into the darkness and saw, not a silent wonder to explore, but a replacement home, a way to make sure that they would never almost be wiped out again." I'll let you guess, though probably no one will get it. If no one does, I'll give the answer.

Though, I ponder -- pattern-wise, shouldn't it be the fourth sentence? 123...4?

You scored as Upper West Side/ Morningside Heights. The UWS may not be as tweedy and artsy as it was in the era of the Trillings and Podhoretzes (some argue that it has turned into the Upper East Side), but the neighborhood is still home to artists, actors, and writers, and not just in Jerry Seinfeld’s income bracket.

Morningside Heights is the area by Columbia university west of Harlem.

Interesting  
I really had no idea what result to expect when I took this, and I was a little surprised by what I got, but the more I think about it, the more it grows on me.

You scored as Fox. You are the Fox. You are quite intelligent and use it to your advantage. You are a diplomatic person and use that to help your friends in times of crisis, not choosing sides. You are also very patient, waiting for what you want.

Ok, personality test. Gakked from [info]cormac. BIG picture, so I'll bump the "trait snapshot" to the top and give commentary, then you can look at the results if you like.

trait snapshot:

messy, tough, disorganized, fearless, not rule conscious...
yep, sometimes, not really, no way, definitely conscious but not always obedient...

likes the unknown, rarely worries, rash, attracted to the counter culture...
sometimes, nope, nope, yep...

rarely irritated, positive, resilient, abstract, not a perfectionist...
nope, yep, yep, yep, big huge NOPE!...

risk taker, strange, weird, self reliant, leisurely, dangerous...
sometimes, definitely, definitely, definitely, yep, I don't think so but I like the idea...

anti-authority, trusting...
aren't those opposites? seriously, yep and yep.

optimistic, positive, thrill seeker, likes bizarre things, sarcastic
yep, yep, sometimes, yep, oh very much so!

This snapshot fails to mention that my "Peter Pan complex" is 90%. *wanders off singing Toys 'R' Us song*
The whole thing is quite large )

Random gripe  
My week to be insulted, apparently. So far this week, I've been called a plagarist, a bad GM, and a piss-poor customer service rep. Now, mind you, none of these came from anyone whose opinion I give half a shit about, but seriously -- did someone stick me with a "Kick Me" sign? *eyeroll*

I need something fun. Someone post some good humorfic. Or p0rnfic. Or I could just post a silly meme...

Hmm, PotC or Monty Python? I think, in honor of [info]macaroniprotest's kick-ass (if belated) xmas pressy, I'll go with PotC:

jack and eliz on island
You are "Welcome to the Caribbean, love."
You're more than a little world-weary, but also
intelligent and you keep your head when things
get dodgy. You're everybody's favorite
drinking buddy, but your stubbornness does get
in the way sometimes.
