scary meme [Apr. 24th, 2008|01:43 pm]


You Are Scary



You even scare scary people sometimes!




umm, I'm not at all scary, the damn thing is messed up. why am I doing the stupid meme anyways -- oh yeah, cause I don't want to be vacuuming out my car so I can take it to the shop to get an estimate that'll mostly likely be 2 times more than what the car is worth. life sucks sometimes. maybe I can be scary to the other guy's insurance company, that'd be something at least. sigh.

oh and I guess you can have comments turned off on your journal - no wonder no one ever leaves me comments - well that and I don't actually post here... thats what xixstar.com is for.... of course, I don't allow comments there either. thats what email is for.

Journal Settings meme [Apr. 11th, 2008|06:28 pm]
Journal settings meme
1. My username is _____ because ______.

Phythia... I'm guessing because xix or xixstar was taken by the time I got around to lj. I'm only here to read my friends' pages, so I didn't think it mattered to much - however, it does occasionally make friend-ing people difficult since there is no connection between phythia and any of my other names. Oh well, it'll continue to do for now, i guess, because it's not like I'm going to ever change it.

2. My name is _____ because ______.

Karen. Suzanne. Suz. Karen Suzanne. Karen. because I can't make up my mind.

It's Karen to family because thats what my momma wanted to call me. It's Suzanne to many friends made after 2000 (but before 2006) because when I left South Dakota and ended up in Wisconsin, I decided to change my name along with everything else I was changing.

Then I got in with a crazy pagan-burner crowd and my good buddy BobbyG started calling me Sooooooooooze all the time, so then it was Suz to mostly burner friends.  It stayed Suz when I moved to Maryland since I met everyone through burner channels.  Then when I went back to college at UMD it was Karen or Suzanne or Karen Suzanne depending on how much energy I had when I was meeting someone new (and when I didn't feel like correcting instructors).

By the time I was done with college, I was pretty committed to Karen Suzanne - and thats what I used at my first and second post-college jobs. And around that time, I also got married and decided to change my last name -- not cause I'm a big fan of last name changes, but because Henderson wasn't my maiden name and keeping it seemed odd -- and I decided that I really didn't like Suzanne Daniel, so I went back to using Karen primarily. Sometimes I'll use Karen Suzanne, sometimes just Karen, but to most of my friends, i still expect Suz and it sure sounds strange when they call me anything else.

Who knew  name could be so complicated.


3. My journal is titled ____ because ____.

suz because maybe then there would be some connection to the unrelated username. That and I don't actually use lj other than the very occasional meme and so didn't think a name mattered.

4. My friends page is called ____ because ____.

Friends because it never occurred to me that it could, or should, be changed.

5. My default userpic is ____ because ____.

I guess I don't have one.

6. My LJ subtitle is _____ because _____.

Don't have one of these either.

this does nothing for my quaker faiths where there is light in all. heh, oh well. the wording of the questions fail to gather a more appropriate response and opinion. amusing just the same.

You scored as Materialist. Materialism stresses the essence of fundamental particles. Everything that exists is purely physical matter and there is no special force that holds life together. You believe that anything can be explained by breaking it up into its pieces. i.e. the big picture can be understood by its smaller elements.
