Friday, August 21. 2009Internet Meme Develops into Unsettling Trend
Came across this meme on a friend's blog, and it sounded kind of interesting, so I thought I'd give it a try.
The rules, as I got them, are as follows: 1. Put your music player on shuffle 2. Press forward for each question 3. Use the song title as the answer 4. NO CHEATING!!! What you get is what you get! I'm more than a little bit disturbed by the pattern that began to develop as the experiment wound on...fortunately, I can point it all to the fact that I didn't have very much music loaded on my ipod when I did this, so maybe I can try it again later with a broader selection of my music and it will end up feeling a bit less like my ipod is trying to question my sexual orientation. 1. How am I feeling today?
Lullaby - James 2. About your marriage? Crumbs from Your Table - U2 // O.o 3. What is my best friend’s theme song? Landslide - Fleetwood Mac 4. What is/was high school like?
