the holmes archetype

new kick-ass icon. hm. wait. i know i had something else to say. okay, when i think of it, i can post this.

i need a method of food-preparation that takes less time than making those packets of noodles. i can't keep having toast. for one thing, the bread has refridgerator burn; for another, it's, uh, boring. and not very nutritious. my hair is so annoying. maybe i will cut it.

would anyone call sherlock holmes an archetype? i can't think of examples of his kind of character from literature before him--you know, sort of robotic, with the theme that superhuman intelligence (computer-like, although when he was written they didn't have computers) gets in the way of 'being human'--properly emotional and whatnot--star trek dealt with this theme in tiresomely repetitive detail, and has done for long enough to spread it out into popular culture--so that you see this kind of robot-guy character in cartoons, in star wars, perhaps, to a certain extent, and then you see it done with obsessive/compulsive scientists elsewhere, in movies. but can anyone think of examples that precede conan doyle (the late 19th century)?

whoa, oops

...i think i just finished like... at least fifty fairy icons. o.0

uh, i guess i'll be posting those in batches.

edit: first batch up for grabs at iconsensual here.

123

edit 2: aaaahahahahahhahaah. harry potter humor.

edit again: where is my tea?! ::miffs::

wank patrol!

daisy_gamgee is so incredibly wanky. it wants something, i think, to qualify for fandom_wank--like someone challenging her and her pouncing puffedly.

o.0

posturing like this really needs some kind of fanfare to announce it. the oozing unctuosity! [runs out of readily available alliterations]

hmm hm, pretty icons

i was reading my friends page and saw this icon (not that i haven't seen it before) and i just had a little spasm of aesthetic appreciation and went, you know, i REALLY REALLY like that icon! wax_jism can attest, although she's learned not to respond to all my random outbursts of the kind--. well, so, then i was chuckling over fandom_tank (about fish) and had that reaction AGAIN so i decided to do

( that thing )

where you link to some really nice-looking icons.

posted daisy_gamgee's wank to fandom_wank.

::sits back::

i wonder if anything will happen, she said idly. and i wish mirabellawotr were around...

edit: ask and ye shall receive.

(no subject)

what a lovely evening indeed.

i don't think i've ever been cavorting in four separate comments-threads before--if indeed it is four...? ::adjusts tiara carefully::

the dog's made a nest on my little sister's bed behind me and it's the cutest thing imaginable. has anyone ever eaten goat? maybe i should think about supper soon.

dun dun dun dun

up too late. thoroughly exhausted, but warm and pleased.

it was, until an hour or so ago, true that if you clicked 'i'm feeling lucky' for a google search on 'weapons of mass destruction' you'd get this page--BWAHAHAH.

and now we sleep.
