Flames

Hey, more flames for your enjoyment - for the innocuous Drunken Domesticity of all things.

Magrim says: This is the gayest story I've ever read. Congratulations. You've made Harry Potter a wand-waggling, limp-wristed flamer.

I've turned this every which way, and I think it's intended to be insulting somehow... I couldn't help but think, "boy, wait till I post that Arthur/Percy slash."

They appeared to be the unusually brave sort. Heh. Except they left a non-working email.

Nickname Meme

Gacked from [livejournal.com profile] epicyclical and [livejournal.com profile] loup_noir:

If you call me Icarus, you read slash, and probably Harry Potter fanfiction.

If you call me Maril, you know me from religious discussions on high-falutin' Tolkien sites and are a friend (or worthy opponent).

If you all me Marileangorifurnimaluim, you've read a post of mine from the high-falutin' Tolkien sites and don't know there's a shorter, friendlier version of that name.

If you call me Z, you're Mark, but I don't see how you could be because he disappeared into the wilderness with a Buddhist mala, a ton of outdoor gear and a plan. Last seen inhabiting a toilet.

If you call me by my full Buddhist name, you know me from a certain book but have never met me. In all likelihood you either hate me with an unreasoning passion thinly overlaid with the usual Buddhist platitudes, or are impressed. Depending on your politics and who your spiritual teacher is.

If you call me by my real name in a tight, awkward way, you're my mother and a number of other Buddhists who've decided I don't deserve a Buddhist name even though that's all you've used for the last 20 years. I deliberately use my Buddhist name with you. *smirk*

If you call me by my shortened Buddhist name, you knew me from India or a retreat somewhere.

If you know me from a variety of made-up names, I've signed an online petition. I don't believe the claims that my name won't be sold (and based on the name, I know who sold it).

If you know me as Amber, you're from Safeway.

If you call me Mamma Kitty, Pumpkin, et al, and have trouble remembering my real name, you're [livejournal.com profile] wildernessguru. Hi Sweet Pea, I don't know your name either.

If you call me dink, you're dad.

If you call me "Hello Dinkbird" you're a spammer.

If you call me by my real name, you're worried that it takes me a minute to respond.
