Week 12 - Throw Back Week!

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages - and of course Idol contestants. . .

It's time, once again, for THROW BACK WEEK!!!

Yes, it's back.

The topics are:

- Moments of Devastating Beauty

- “I Don’t Care About Apathy”, What I “Should” Care About, But Don’t.

- Sexual Ethics

- "Who's that Trip Trapping Over My LJ?"

- Current Events

You ONLY have to write one, but it can not be the same one you wrote about last time. (for those who don't recall what they wrote:http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/268775.html)

Oh, and your partner has to write a different one. (again, not the same topic they wrote before)

Wait - did I just say "partner". *goes back and looks* Why, yes I did.

What would a proper Throwback Week be without one of the most beloved twists of all: The INTERSECTION!!!

There are times in writing when you have to collaborate on something bigger than just the piece you are working on. This is one of those times!!

You can have them tie in together as much, or little, as you want.

But ultimately -your fate is going to be tied to your partner (combined vote totals).

I'll be posting a separate "TOPIC THREAD" next for official links. This entry is for people to post to find who they want to be paired up with!!! :)

Have fun!

I KNEW IT!!!!

(oh, and I previously used up my "devastating beauty") :P

[lyrical-liessss.livejournal.com]

Have you been chosen?

[oberonia.livejournal.com]

Alright! Who wants me? I took a BYE that week, so I haven't written on any of them...but I'd love a run at the "Moments of Devastating Beauty".

[theafaye.livejournal.com]

Can I have you even though I'm not zia_narratora? You're not on my f-list and you're very welcome to that topic. I did Current Events last time but I could just about any other

[oberonia.livejournal.com]

And, yes, I'm secretly hoping zia_narratora picks me HAHAH!

[lovewas.livejournal.com]

I think she'll want cacophonesque. Pinky and the Brain, you know. ;)

[theafaye.livejournal.com]

PARTNERS!!!!!!!!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY!!!!

Gary, you have just made my day! I have the BIGGEST grin on my face!

ETA: If oberonia rejects me, who else fancies me? :oP

Gary - can you team up with an f-lister or do they have to be new to you?

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I have a feeling just about anyone would fancy you ;)

You are one of the popular ones more than likely!

[lyrical-liessss.livejournal.com]

You know what, screw it. I'll take anyone that's willing to write an amazing entry with me.

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

OOh reminds me of middle school gym class. Will I be picked last like I was back then? *bites nails*

Pick me! Pick me!

I wrote on current events that week, so that is the only entry I cannot write about!

[oneonthefence.livejournal.com]

OK, I'm here - who wants to hook up? ;)

I used "Moments of Devastating Beauty" last time, just as an FYI.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Okay, I've done season 4 and 5 in addition to this one - did we do these topics in both seasons (I know "Current events" was in both) and if so are we counting both seasons as far as having written them before, or just the previous season??

And I'm open to being paired up with anyone who wants me! =)

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Just this season of course!

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

Same here...I am not sure what to do. Pick someone and see if I am turned down? See who wants me (if anyone)? It scares me!

[shadowwolf13]

I did sexual ethics last time ... thinking of a couple of other topics for this round.

Who want's to team with me?

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

If you didn't get a partner yet, I would team with you.

Though I am sort of whoring myself out, and hoping someone bites. So if you don't want too, someone else is sure to take me up on the offer!

[lyrical-liessss.livejournal.com]

DUDE. Your little icon thing has a cute little man on it. Enlighten me on how to get this. Please :P

[stormkitty.livejournal.com]

I did Moments of Devastating Beauty last time, and I'm already letting my mind wander into the other ones. I'm open to any of the others. This is my first season, so I'm not sure how this works and I'm really feeling like it's middle school kickball time again. So, who wants to team up?

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

haha exactly! I said the same thing about being like middle school! How funny.

I am just waiting to see if anyone wants me too...and see where it goes I guess.

[imafarmgirl.livejournal.com]

Then you best pick someone you want and ask them. Grins. Otherwise you might get what you don't want.

[imafarmgirl.livejournal.com]

Goes to bed thinking happy thoughts of some kind of inspiration and intersection, and maybe inspiration while standing in an intersection, and so on.

[pricelessone.livejournal.com]

imafarmgirl, if you don't have a partner, and would like one, I'd be willing to intersect with you :)

I did "Moments of Devastating Beauty" last time...

[crimsonplum.livejournal.com]

So if we have someone specific in mind, can we approach them? Or is it preferred that we just offer ourselves up?

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I would imagine you should ask them! I am only offering myself up because I am afraid of rejection...sad, but true. I think it might be the same for others.

[kutiechick.livejournal.com]

I did Apathy last time -- and am up for any kind of adventure! I am going to be out of town starting on Friday, though; so I was hoping to write something tomorrow/Wednesday if possible.

:D

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

Pick me! What are friends for, right? Then we can IM later and discuss :)

P.S. Obviously I would've asked while we were already IMing, but my Internet went down just as I noticed the new topic was posted. I had to get my husband to SMS me what was going on! LOL

ETA: I'm not likely going to get to chat to you until tomorrow morning my time (you know, the usual hour of the day we chat), so I thought I'd mention I've got an idea for Current Events. Don't know which topic you wanted to go with? I'll PM you the link to my article in case you want to see what I'm thinking about writing on.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Okay - I previously did "Moments of Devastating Beauty" this season. I'm open to anyone who wants to pair up with me. =)

[ask-a-sup.livejournal.com]

I did Current Events, if you want to pair with me.

[fourzoas.livejournal.com]

At first I read the twist as "the intersect" and immediately started looking around for a pair of dark glasses to shield my already-beleaguered brain.

I haven't written any of these having taken a bye during that week. I'm most likely interested in current events.

[beeker121.livejournal.com]

Awesome Chuck reference!

[dawny-darko.livejournal.com]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!

[onda-bianca.livejournal.com]

This feels a bit like gym class. We'd pick our own teams for kickball. Oye.

Who wants me?
(Anyone?)

I did current events last time around.

[drippedonpaper.livejournal.com]

I just messaged you. Can you check it?:)

[hexkitten.livejournal.com]

I think I did sexual ethics last time. What week did all of this happen?

Also, I'm open to being paired with someone who has a great rack. Or likes a great rack. Or any rack in general.

[finding_helena]

*bats eyes*

Me?

[unlikekudzu.livejournal.com]

When I was on my way home tonight, I was thinking about poking around some people's journals and adding to my friends list, now that I have time and consistent internet access again. Whoops. Hi, everyone! So instead, this is me, adding my voice to the chorus.

I wrote on Apathy last time. I'm leaning towards sexual ethics or current events this time, but I'm flexible.

(I sort-of-promised an entry about sex for my awkward-topics trifecta, and I never got around to it. If my subscription to the local paper starts as promised this week, there might be something of interest there.)

[norda.livejournal.com]

Actually, I'd like to work with you on the Sexual Ethics topic, if you'll have me.

E-mail me, please, at pmcsquared at yahoo dot com.

[beeker121.livejournal.com]

I've messaged someone, just so if I do get turned down it doesn't happen here. With so many people saying 'I wonder who will pick me' I decided to try being more assertive. Which is scary as hell.

[lyrical-liessss.livejournal.com]

I did too, and seeing as I haven't received a reply, I think I might be rejected lol.

[sra33.livejournal.com]

I... I'm so very confused.

Errr... soo... Yes.

I did Sexual Ethics (http://sra33.livejournal.com/691228.html). Pretty inspired to do any on the list so very very flexible. Who's with me? :D

[poppetawoppet.livejournal.com]

*waves shyly* I did moments of devastating beauty, but can handle any of the other three. :D

if you'll have me

[oberonia.livejournal.com]

Do we write on the same topic or do we pick separate topics and weave them together?

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I believe it says seperate topics. And you can weave them together as little or as much as you like.
