Three things from around the flist this week:

1. Are you tone-deaf?. [livejournal.com profile] infintysquared passes along this opportunity to test out of future recruitment attempts for the church choir (or this opportunity to engage in, as he puts it, some musical dick-waving). I tested out at above 90%, which is not a surprise. [livejournal.com profile] triadruid tested out in the normal range (low 70s, I think), despite what he may tell you about his ears, brain, or singing ability.

2. The Best Thing Ever Project, noticed by [livejournal.com profile] digibri, asks users to choose between two options to determine the best thing ever. It's a fine way to waste a whole lot more time than one might think. There used to be a site called whatsbetter.com that did a very similar thing, and that Dan The Abbot Of Lesbians and I used to discuss endlessly over IM during interminable afternoons at work, but that site has passed. I'm all nostalgic all of a sudden, but this is a worthy substitute.

3. From [livejournal.com profile] rougewench,







Which Bond Girl Are You?




You are Miss Moneypenny -- efficient and indespensible. You're a true survivor. You've seen them come and go...bad guys, girlfriends, supervisors, assistants, but when it comes right down to it, you're the one woman Bond can't live without.

The results here should be surprising to no one.

Hah!

I scored as one of my favorite Bond Girls (except for Moneypenny). I still find it hard to believe that Moneypenny never went for Bond like everyone else (of the frmale persuasion [OK, except for M, of course])did. It might even suggest that Moneypenny's actually...a MAN. Sure, I'd rather not believe it, but her restraint *is* very odd among the women in Bond's life.







Which Bond Girl Are You?




You are Octopussy -- beautiful and successful. You've taken your sparkling personality, management skills, and eye for talent and built a thriving business. Sure, you cut a few bureaucratic corners here and there to increase profit margins, but you look out for your people and at the end of a long, hard day you're all woman and then some.

Am I the only one that couldn't hear a lot of the music phrases on the other test? I still nabbed a 72.2%, but I suspect a lot of that was luck.

Naw, it goes down like this:
Bond: FLIRT FLIRTY FLIRT
Moneypenny: Laugh. "Oh James, you're such an ass."
Bond: FLIRTY FLIRT FLIRT
Moneypenny: Laugh. Eye-batting. "Yes, of course I would go to bed with you, right after pigs fly. Now get out of my office, so I can stare at your backside as you walk away."

Moneypenny, like [livejournal.com profile] featherynscale, has a well-developed Fun/Trouble calculus.

Aye, and these days it seems to be the bane of my existence. : P

Darling, I am well aware that nothing I have (short of perhaps a frickin' laser beam death ray) is capable of being the bane of your existence. Anyway, I hear you're full up on girl at the moment.
