sheep entrails for the digital age

okay, it’s meme time again. maybe i should have one meme a week. meme mondays? theinternet thursdays? i got this one from lt. it’s music-based, in that the answers to these questions were helpfully provided by itunes shuffle over my two thousand song library. usefulness of this form of divination? low.

  1. how does the world see you?
    imaginary girl – tennis pro, cassie’s junior varsity make-out squad. i would like to be known as the guy with an imaginary girlfriend.
  2. will I have a happy life?
    get up – dropkick murphys, do or die. if i don’t get up, if i don’t stand for something then i’ll fall for anything.
  3. what do my friends really think of me?
    believe, – third day, time. but then, what do they know?
  4. do people secretly lust after me?
    salty dog – flogging molly, swagger. hopefully this does not mean a drunken pirate secretly lusts after me.
  5. how can I make myself happy?
    come just as you are, crystal lewis, greatest hits. probably the most accurate answer i’ve ever seen.
  6. what should i do with my life?
    you’re pretty when i’m drunk – the bloodhound gang. check!
  7. will i ever have children?
    wish i hadn’t stayed so long – hayes carll, sxsw 2005 showcasing artist compilation. possible interpretations here seem to be a substantial stretch.

  8. what is some good advice for me?
    solstice: reintroduction – blue scholars, blue scholars: the expanded re-release. in the title? not much for advice.

  9. will i be remembered?
    date with destiny – pennywise, full circle. this is eerily accurate, actually.
  10. what is my signature dancing song?
    the white tree – soundtrack, the lord of the rings: the return of the king. well, no. though it does kind of make me tear up just to think about the grandeur of minas tirith when behold, the lords of gondor have returned!
  11. what do i think my current theme song is?
    crime and punishment – fun lovin’ criminals, come find yourself. dostoyevsky, i am not.

  12. what does everyone else think my current theme song is?
    fear of the last branch – mercir, as small as the center. if i gave you two thousand two hundred and ten of my mp3s and asked you to pick for me a theme song and this is what you came up with i would give you a huge gem-encrusted golden trophy.
  13. what song will play at my funeral?
    you – bad religion, no control. please? eternity my friend is a long fucking time.
  14. what type of men/women do i like?
    suite autumn – soundtrack, halo. sweet autumn? perhaps!

  15. what is my day going to be like tomorrow?
    see you soon – coldplay, live 2003. and with that i’m done. see you tomorrow?
