Taken from [livejournal.com profile] chainwoman, with no intention of returning it, especially as I already carved my initials in it.

1. Go to my userinfo page.
2. Pick one person on my friends list you're curious about.
3. Comment with their username.
4. And I will talk "All Kinds Of Shit" about them (I reserve the right to determine what constitutes "All Kinds Of Shit").

Pick anybody you want. I'll tell you about you, or your friend, or whoever, because, you know, who doesn't like to talk about their friends?

[livejournal.com profile] myrsine doesn't know it, but I worship her from afar. She is the only non-Santera I know that has any Yoruba, and my source for particularly obscure Tolkien trivia. She is a woman of many names and carries an air of swirling mystery wherever she goes. Her boythings are lucky to have her. She speaks more languages than [livejournal.com profile] kittenpants and has apparently superhuman patience. I think she is alarmingly brilliant, despite her tendency towards fanfic. She is both lovely and talented, and I hoped she'd post pictures of her new hair color, but she never did. She is a queen among Brunchers and Grey-Labyrinthers both.

[livejournal.com profile] saffronhare is the last of an exotic race of highly educated warrior-women, known throughout the galaxy for their fearsome arm-wrestling and interior decorating skills. Of all the people I know, she is the most likely to come with a warning label, and it should say "Be alarmed - contents magnificent. Do not mix with the scatterbrained. Keep away from second drinks." She removes doors from their frames with the power of her will, and is perfectly willing to take damage for the sake of increasing competence. [livejournal.com profile] saffronhare is always playing to win, but doesn't always tell you what her conditions of victory are. She is a true child of the gods and only hangs out with the baddest of asses.

[livejournal.com profile] wolfieboy is an expert on kinky sex and ferrets. He is exuberant and beautiful, and inclined to use claws. He is able to schedule fabulous gatherings, ponder the nature of the universe and defend the honor of Seattle all while making exquisitely painful puns. He is in love with the world, but especially [livejournal.com profile] cindygerb. He is the sort of person who knows Richard. He worries that he is too much, but revels in the abilities of other people to keep up. He's also heart-rendingly literate and has longer hair than god.

[livejournal.com profile] deviant_mute

Interesting name.

[livejournal.com profile] deviant_mute is a mad scientist. [livejournal.com profile] chronarchy would call her a bald hottie, and I would agree, although I mourn the passing of her dreadlocks. She is on a balls-out quest to make art, know life, and engage her own physical and mental tolerance levels. She's a member of the Irreality crew (hivemind?), and the sultry Canadian temptress of [livejournal.com profile] silentreality, and likely many other unsuspecting British men. She makes beautiful sigils, and is a damned fine photographer as well. She reminds me of wasabi.

[livejournal.com profile] greektoomey is an old-school dadamonger currently living in the surreal surrounds of Seattle. Despite statements to the contrary, he does not appear to be a bot. I suspect him of owning a very dapper pair of dancing shoes, possibly in black and white. He has fabulous ideas for various mischief and art which I often wish to implement immediately. He is currently awaiting surgical alteration to permanent non-breeder status, in which I wish him the best, and fully support his efforts. He's generally inspiring, and he ought to go out with [livejournal.com profile] wolfieboy sometime.

How did I know you'd choose her? :)

[livejournal.com profile] hobbitblue is an impressively proficient musical type from across the pond. Much like [livejournal.com profile] drummel, she seems to be able to coax a tune out of just about anything. She's currently the proud playmate of a baby snake called Kithra, and a not terribly hobbitish boy called [livejournal.com profile] forestwalker.

OK, cheaters for last. :-P

[livejournal.com profile] featherynscale wants to be Johnny Depp when she grows up, but would settle for being Hunter S. Thompson instead. She curses like a sailor, which isn't surprising, all things considered. She is a reasonably competent human being with pretensions towards magicianhood. She is fond of good whiskey, as she finds that it improves her perceptions and reaction time. She wouldn't ask you to do anything she wasn't willing to try herself, unless it seemed really funny at the time. She's currently serving as a manifestation of the Pillar of Severity, but sometimes uses that as an excuse. She's currently experimenting with the potential for stability in tri-polar systems, clever uses for empty serum vials, and this whole having a real life thing. Documentation to follow.

[livejournal.com profile] deskdiva is a med-school denizen with the face of an angel. I mostly see her in party-type situations, at which I have discovered that she can drink much more than me and still dispense advice about pharmacological products, legal and illegal. She is a coworker of [livejournal.com profile] breathofgold and [livejournal.com profile] casey_rashel, and an ex-coworker of [livejournal.com profile] lulumay.

[livejournal.com profile] zylch, if only because I think she's pretty when she blushes. Well, I think she's pretty all the time. Note that I can only say this because she's a few miles away from me right now...even if we are dressed to match.

[identity profile] featherynscale.livejournal.com 2004-07-11 04:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[livejournal.com profile] zylch is currently off in the wilds of Back East, and therefore will not be here to read this comment immediately. Hence, I feel that I can say all kinds of things about her without fear of retribution for at least a week.
[livejournal.com profile] zylch is a strange but compelling combination of ascetic and aesthete - she's also tougher than nails and spits fire when necessary. She has high standards for herself and her friends and family. She also has the cutest dog in the world, a fact which may be related. She looks better in BDUs than anyone else I know, but despite that fact, seems to be straight. She is impeccable in her knowledge and practice, which is frankly damned impressive.

I know him hardly at all. He is, however, friends with a blue monkey, and I think that's fantastic. Also, he has a good name, and an interesting grasp of such subjects near and dear to my heart as occultism, language, trivia, and movies... so is always interesting for reading.

[identity profile] featherynscale.livejournal.com 2004-07-12 10:38 am (UTC)(link)
[livejournal.com profile] gamera_spinning is a swashbuckler who somehow found himself landlocked in the middle of the country (I hear that [livejournal.com profile] rougewench had something to do with that) and so I consider him to be a brother-in-arms, or something like that. He is an impeccable source for information about upcoming film, television, comic books, and any other popular media manifestation, especially where it has to do with pirates, samurai, steampunk, superheroes, and other such fantastic things. Also, he's named for a gigantic turtle that flies and spits fire, and you just can't beat that for cool.

[livejournal.com profile] chaosdruid... because turnabout for the goose is fairplay for the gander, or something.

[identity profile] featherynscale.livejournal.com 2004-07-12 10:35 am (UTC)(link)
[livejournal.com profile] chaosdruid is so, so, so not my mom. Or at least, she beats me when I call her mom, which is like the same thing. She runs a mean game of Paranoia and graciously allows me to steal soda from her fridge. She's 89% straight and falling. She's part spider monkey, part cat, and part sun-seeking plant. She is the entrusted keeper of the fattest cat on the planet, and was recently voted Most Likely to be Bene Gesserit, for her array of impressive stretching techniques. She is legally a midget, which means that we have to spend a lot of time keeping [livejournal.com profile] diermuid away from her. She has given up serving as a good example to lead a productive life as a horrible warning. She is also a mad scientist, and lets me have leftover serum vials when she's done with them.

[livejournal.com profile] kcwitch has shopping mojo. Everybody's got skills, and one of hers is the inexplicable ability to dive into a retail establishment and emerge with exactly what she's looking for, and it will invariably be on sale. Aside from that, she's bubbly and irrepressible and will tell damned near anybody damned near anything. I think I know more about her sex life than the sex life of some people I've actually slept with. She's also one hell of a mom and an ally. She kisses everybody, or at least everybody who doesn't run away. I am not supposed to stand next to her in ritual anymore, because she is trouble.
