Mads Mikkelsen (125) [Nov. 28th, 2009|04:10 am]

Mads is just as fierce and indomitable since the last time I iconed him, two years ago. I love his salt-and-pepper hair. The skeletal bone structure. The cheekbones that could cut me like a knife. The wolfish eyes. I love him.

Seth Rogen in Fanboys (75 icons) [Nov. 28th, 2009|03:07 am]

Note: Seth Rogen played three roles in this movie, though I'm only iconning him as Roach. I'm sorry that the coloring is bad, I have been fighting with it the whole way.

Rules:
    Comment! I like to know who has my icons, even if it's for purely selfish reasons.
    Credit! Putting either [info]icondilemma or [info]rainbowling in the icon comments is fine!
    Change! Don't modify my icons in any way without mentioning it to me first. If you want to add or take off borders, I'm normally fine with that, but just let me know!
    Enjoy! This is self-explanatory.

I effing love Amanda Peet. I always group her together with Piper Perabo in my mind, but have no idea why. Is it the big lips? The sunny smile? The 90s movies? I DO NOT KNOW.

It's been a good news, bad news sort of day today.


Bad News: I woke up in a pool of blood.
Good News: Despite waking up on my back, I didn't drown in said blood.


And hey, if you don't like me? You can just swap the words 'good' and 'bad' around, and the post still works! :D

THE WALRUS. LOL. All are caps made by me from The Boat that Rocked (not Pirate Radio because Boat had some extra scenes!). Be on the look out for Tom Sturridge, (more) Bill Nighy, Tom Brooke, Nick Frost, Katherine Parkinson, Chris O'Dowd, (more) Jack Davenport, Kenneth Branagh, and Ike Hamilton, Yeah, that's a list, I know!

LOVE THIS FILM.

Dear flist.

I have just done my practise oral exam and needless to say I am 160% more freaked out than I was before. I WISH I COULD HAVE TOLD MY BOSS THAT HE IS NOT ALLOWED TO NITPICK MY GRAMMAR WHEN HE USES CF INCORRECTLY E.G. MY LAST POST.


Anyway, if there is anyone who would like to post me smutty drabbles involving our characters I would be much obliged.


if you're too weirded out to put them here, you can filter a post and link me ♥ I swear to god I will appreciate the hell out of your descent into the dark nether regions of rp

17 hours of reading journal articles make me bitchy? no! [Nov. 24th, 2009|10:41 am]

Pet peeve of today: scientists who can't use words correctly but are allowed to publish anyway.

A brief guide to penultimate, cf., ca., inflammable, and ambivalent


PENULTIMATE

pene- before or almost
ultimate the last of something

what penultimate means. next to last.

what penultimate does NOT mean. some step further than ultimate. that would make the word ultimate pointless.


CF.

what it is. from Latin confer, meaning to compare or consult. It is intended to provide a reference to some other work against which one might compare the current work -- that is, it is meant to be used to indicate a source with different arguments, data, or conclusions.

what it isn't. A substitute for "see" in the "see Figure 1" sense. You do not say cf. Figure 1. EVER.


CA.

what it is. from Latin circa, meaning 'around.' It is used to refer to dates.

what is isn't. a go-to substitute for 'approximately,' particularly in the 'approximately 100nm thick' sense.


INFLAMMABLE

in into
flammable lol obviously

what inflammable means. combustible, flammable, settable on fireable

what inflammable does NOT mean. nonflammable. come on guys you do this for a living.


this is not a science mistake but it bugs me anyway so I'm throwing it in.

AMBIVALENT

ambi both
valence the capacity of a person to react with another in a special way

what ambivalent means. uncertainty, caused by having to make a choice or by conflicting/opposite emotions.

what ambivalent does NOT mean. indifferent, apathetic. STOP. USING. IT. LIKE. THIS.

Please don't expect essays underneath this cut - ideas are only just beginning to coalesce! More will come, but these sketches will do for now.

More will follow, I'm sure.
