Has anyone ever thought of "Flannell" as a portmanteau for Flansburgh and Linnell? Not necessarily in a shippy way (although I do ship them wth D:) - I just thought it was somewhat clever. Of course, they already do have several serviceable collective names, like, say, "They Might Be Giants". :\

...Dang it, now I want to read some TMBG fic. Does anyone even write that stuff? D:

gank'd from Alex

1. Open whatever program you use to listen to music
2. Shuffle
3.State one lesson you've learned from the first ten songs
4. Post

1. No Such Thing by John Mayer - If you follow the rules, your post-school life will be boring and unfulfilling.
2. What Do You Hear In These Sounds by Dar Williams - Therapy can actually be helpful.
3. Charlie by the Red Hot Chili Peppers - Charlie makes everything better.
4. On The Street from RENT - Don't assume that a homeless person will want your help.
5. By the Way by the Red Hot Chili Peppers - If you stand in line to see a show and there's a light on with a heavy glow...dang it, I can't make heads or tails of this song.
6. One More Minute by Weird Al Yankovic - Don't ever break up with Weird Al.
7. Stuck by Lemon Demon - Being in a song is really boring.
8. Sound of Your Voice by the Barenaked Ladies - The sound of someone's voice is preferable to an alarm clock.
9. The Zephyr Song by the Red Hot Chili Peppers - Sometimes it's a good idea to just have some water where you can center your emotion and let all the world pass you by.
10. Dinosaurchestra Part Two by Lemon Demon - Dinosaurs make good music.

You'd never be able to tell I only have eight RHCP songs in there. (Does "RHCP" remind anyone of "RCMP"?)

Also, most of you internet-savvy folks probably already know the song "Ievan Polkka" from the Leekspin video, but if you don't, go look it up. (This video has the full song with subtitles.) This is probably my new favorite Finnish song. Just makes you wanna dance. ^_^

I'm liking how you just blindly gank and call it a meme. It amuses me, because I made it up. I'm pretty sure it's not considered a meme until, like, five or so people have done it. So, here I am, being amused.

Really? It's a list of questions that you fill in. I thought that was pretty much what a meme was.

Yes and no. Something like this can be called a meme, but more people will call it that if it's widespread. There are different definitions of the word.

But now that I've got ahold of it, maybe it'll be a moot point, because I've got a lot of people who read my LJ, so some of them might take it. Or maybe not. Who knows. :P

It's a play on the original video, where it was the other way around. :P
