Pass the duchie on the left-hand side

Apparently, there's this thing on LiveJournal called a "meme." I don't know what the word means, or even how to pronounce it. (When I say it in my head, I pronounce it "mee-mee," like an excited affirmation of self, as if everything else on these LiveJournals isn't saltwater taffy for narcissists.) Experts tell me that a meme is a kind of survey that gets passed around from journal to journal. It's like the clap, without the painful burning sensation.

Anyway, I saw this one recently, and it seems like a reasonable opportunity for a test-drive. Thanks to noasylumhere.

Comment with your name, and I will:

1. tell you what song/movie reminds me of you.
2. say something that only makes sense to you and me.
3. tell you my first memory of you.
4. tell you what animal you remind me of.
5. tell you something that I've always wondered about you.

1. Airplane! and Blazing Saddles, which I believe were both failed MovieNight attempts at making David laugh.
2. I'm surprised Jamie Cullum left with his pants still on.
3. I first saw you in a photo David was showing around, and I remember agreeing with everybody that you were cute. In person, I remember wandering around the Smith residential quad after dusk with David, totally confused about where we were supposed to go, until you finally appeared to let us in.
4. A peacock.
5. Why does she have a bellybutton ring if she never displays her belly?

Question 1: A peacock? Please explain. :)

Question 2: Now that you brought it up, what was the "lamest joke in the history of jokes"?

Answer to your question: It's a long and complicated story as to why I have a bellybutton ring. Peer pressure, rebellion against my parents (see tattoo), individuality. But I don't have it for anyone else. Just me.

Meanwhile,

1. When The Saints Come Marching In (done in New Orleans-style jazz, of course).
2. I bet Jamie Cullum went home with 100 pairs of women's underwear.
3. You asking David, while visiting Smith during Winter Weekend, if he thought you were "going to get any action." (He doesn't remember this at all.)
4. A yellow lab. I'm thinking of the fierce loyalty you have for your friends, not the panting and crotch-sniffing.
5. Why don't you want to travel to non-English-speaking Europe?

I thought peacock because of your remarkably blue eyes. Not that peacocks have blue eyes. They probably have standard, beady bird-eyes. But your eyes are the same bright color of blue that I imagine on peacocks, and you're always dressed so tastefully and colorfully.

As I have told others, I am not going to repeat "the lamest joke in the history of jokes." Those records are sealed. If you must imagine me saying something stupid and unfunny, I recommend that you simply call upon your own personal memories; there's plenty of material there.

I would also like to note that I, too, do not remember asking if I was going to get any action. I think maybe *you* said it, and are trying to blame it on me.
