I want to make a meme, I want to be cool too!

spitefairy's meme, that she started because she's super cool


Buffy the Vampire Slayer - I have to agree with spitefairy and pin the bulk of the jump on Dawn. Like, the ramp is there, and Dawn's entrance got the show running up the ramp. I think the jump happened in Season 7 with the really annoying potentials. Thing is, there are a lot of keeper episodes in Seasons 5-7 after said jump. So I feel as though it didn't really jump a shark...maybe several smaller fish, like salmon. Lots of salmon. mmmm...sushi.....

Scrubs - the whole Elliot/J.D. thing should not have gone on past season 1. And it should NEVER have become a plot line for every season. How many times can they make up and then break up? I enjoyed the show, but the funny-ness began to get replaced by these serious relationship episodes.

X-Files - decided to get Mulder and Scully together was a major error in my book. That was the wind up. The pitch was when Mulder left. The home-run came with, yes you guessed it, THE BUTT GENIE! Dear god, who let them write that?

Angel - Like BtVS, I don't think it ever jumped....it began running up the ramp with Connor, bent it's knees with Evil Cordelia...but then changed it's mind and aired season 5.

Simpsons - Conan left. Season 7 happened.

I took your Clone Wars Icon--I love it. Where did you get that picture? I think it would make a great journal heading..

[orangerful.livejournal.com]

someone posted caps to cap_it, if you check my memories it should be saved in there. Or did you want me to attempt to make you a header? ;-) I can try, just let me know what you'd like it to say or if you want other images blended it.

Glad you liked it!

[jellibean.livejournal.com]

Oo Thanks! aww you don't need to try to make me a header.. thanks though. (If I'm completely incompetent at it I'll probably post a request somewhere--lol)

My header!

[jellibean.livejournal.com]

I made my header.. It's right here. Is there anything you can do to make it look a little smoother? I don't have photoshop, so I ended up making this in Paint. Also.. what color do you think I should use for my journal BG with this heading?

Sorry for all the questions.. you've just been super-helpful and nice! ^_^ I feel kind of like Colin Creevy.. :\

Re: My header!

[orangerful.livejournal.com]

haha, no worries, you're nowhere Creevy level.

For a background color, I'd pick one of the colors in the sky. In photoshop, you can select the color in the picture and it will tell you the number code so you can just enter it into LJ...I dunno if Paint can do that...

I'll see if there's any way for me to smooth it out. Feel free to ask me questions! I don't mind. :-)

Re: My header!

[jellibean.livejournal.com]

Gah! Thanks so much.. I'm personally indebted to you forever! haha.

[persephones-rev.livejournal.com]

Ahahahahaha!! GHOTI!!! (Did you ever hear about that? How you can phonetically spell 'fish' 'g-h-o-t-i'... you take the 'gh' from laugh, the 'o' from women, and the 'ti' from anything ending in tion, like fascination. Fun, huh?) :D
And you're in cahoots with a droid! ;)

I love your icons! But, I'm thinking that's just about a constant for me. :) I just want to take 'em all, but I don't have the room for them all to play. :(

[orangerful.livejournal.com]

HAHAHA! No I've never heard that! Reminds me of the Eddie Izzard bit about spelling "through".

speaking of Eddie, watched "Ocean's 12" last night, and he was in it!!! Made the movie that much better (nowhere near as good as the first one, but enjoyable)

[persephones-rev.livejournal.com]

:D Some website explains it as "...'fish' re-spelled by a Victorian spelling-reform advocate to demonstrate the inconsistency of English spelling..." Funny, huh? :)

I didn't know he was in Ocean's 12... maybe I'll actually give that one a try. :) Yay for Eddie!!
