[info]out_iconned - run by [info]likegunfire

basically a Survivor type icon competition:
- competitors are placed into teams
- each team has a separate community that the members all join
- each week a challenge is given and all members create an icon (you can use the team communities to get feedback from your teammates and such)
- the icons are submitted, and the community votes for their least favorite team (the team with the worst icons overall)
- the team with the most votes will be forced to vote someone out of their team
- the game continues - eventually teams are broken up, and the players then compete individually.

check it out, it seems like a lot of fun! sign ups are here!

You know you're an Academy of Art University student when...
-You know exactly what "Anal form" means.
-The phrase "Color and Design" gives you nightmares.
-You wonder why the fuck it's called "The Egg".
-You decide to walk the twenty blocks to class because it'd be a hell of a lot faster than taking the shuttle.
-You wish, on a regular basis, that you had two dollars in general.
-You look forward to the cookies Academy of Art provides.
-You sat through orientation and kept getting told you're going to fail, fail, fail...then fail some more.
-The bums recognize you and stop asking for money.
-You realize that eating and sleeping are highly overrated....If you want to pass, that is.
-You realize how stupid it is to put Academy and University in the same title.
-You look forward to that one night a week you can sleep.
-You're paying $20k a year for an education, but only have some pennies, a button, and some lint in your pockets.
-The term "starving artist" totally starts to make sense,
-You realize, it may be art, but she's still ugly.
-Your "dry campus" serves alcohol at 99% of the events it hosts.
-Your professors give you two weeks to complete an assignment, but somehow you always stay up till 3am working on it the night before it's due.
-The bus rides are akin to roller coaster rides.
-you hate UPS trucks with a fiery passion.
-when your an Academy of Arts student when "going out" is heading to walgreens late at night.
-when you realize Elisa Stephens is using your tuition money to hold her show cars in a school building
-you wonder who the fuck has free time to go to the school skate park, when they go to the Academy
-you wonder what the hell an Urban Knight is, and if that means there are such things as Rural Knights
-The people at the 24 hour Starbucks know you by name, know your drink order, and have actually stopped charing you for your 2am latte runs.
-Otis has actually stopped singing to you, because he is tired of hearing, "I have no money, I GO TO AN ART SCHOOL!"
-when you're surprised that your teacher isn't gay...
-when you rather wait 30 minutes for the school bus to take you to your other class instead of walking 5 blocks which would take you 15 minutes...
-when you're not surprised that during critiques, the student with the ugliest work taped on the board is the teachers favorite..."because they're thinkin outside the box"
-you use the kiosk to check your facebook and myspace page instead of your grades...
-a classmate looks at you weird when you say you don't smoke weed and asks if you're alright...
-Your friends get mad at you because your MPT and don't have color and design
-Your homework is to shoot an 5 minute film and you have no money, no actors, and no locations
-You wait in line for over an hour to return equipment that was due when you got there
-You finish your homework 5min before class starts and still make it on time
-every time you take the shuttle you ask where its going even though you already checked it 4 times in the schedule
- the shuttle left two minutes ago.
-that time you got stranded in the Mojave desert left your stomach fuller than that time you had class at Townsend.
-you wonder why the interior design students get the best exterior view on campus.
-You get a tour of the Bay Area when you catch the bus that leaves five minutes earlier than your usual ride.
- You get your daily exercise consistently side-stepping dog crap on Pine Street.
- You can't tell the tourists where the Golden Gate bridge is because you never stopped working long enough to see the damn thing.
-you get up 2 hours before a class starts, just to catch an academy shuttle that will get you there on time.
-When you're quite sure the school will own the whole city in a matter of months...
-You laugh at students from other schools when they complain about their 2 hr. class being SOOOOO long.
-you are excited by that fact that you get out of class early even though you still have to stand outside the building in the pouring rain 20 minutes after class is supposed to end for the first shuttle that will take you home.
-you know what 180, 79, 860, 655 and 620 mean.
-when you can walk confidently down the street in pjs and flipflops to union square at 3 am
-when cleaning your dorm room involves maids
-when the maids wont even come to your room anymore for fear of 'disturbing the mess'
-when you have to debate whether to spend your money on food or on more supplies
-when you know how to get free soda and gatorade at Townsend.
-when you've had a funny story about the crazy russian bus driver.
- at least one of your daily meals comes from a vending machine.
- sleepless nights outnumber the days you feel rested.

yup yup.

From [info]lims_tori



For those of you who don't already know, there has been a strike scheduled for Friday, March 21st, 2008, during which we hope to have many members of LiveJournal provide LJ with absolutely no content for twenty-four hours. This means no posting and no commenting. If you post elsewhere and have it set up to be posted through a feed on LiveJournal, don't do it. Stay away from LiveJournal for twenty-four hours. That can't be too hard, can it? I know some of you are probably quite active on LiveJournal and will find it hard to stay away for an entire day, just as I will, but this is something that needs to be done, to show the people running LiveJournal that we're watching the changes they are making, that we're paying attention, that we're discontent, and that we want to be heard and taken in to consideration. We are not simply users who can be tossed to the side and ignored. We are the people who make up LiveJournal. Without us, without the content we create, without our words, our voices, our creativity, our participation, there would be no LiveJournal. This is a fact, and it needs to be realized and understood and then taken in to consideration when making decisions regarding the way that LiveJournal is run. The strike is only a few days away, so there isn't all too much time to prepare. While this is unfortunate, it isn't enough to keep this strike from taking place. It will take place, the second it is meant to, and it would be best to have as many people take part as possible. Please, spread the word. Spread it fast. There are only a few days to organize this. If you find that you care about LiveJournal or care about the people you interact with on LiveJournal or simply want it to remain a place where you can entertain yourself without constant censorship and money-hungry practices being thrown in without the consideration of those who use the service, act now. If you don't wish to spread the word, that is fine, but please: refrain from using LiveJournal on Friday, March 21st. Do something else for a change. It's for a good cause. (:

For background on this strike and why it is being held, please read the following posts:
http://beckyzoole.livejournal.com/394838.html
http://beckyzoole.livejournal.com/395310.html

To find out exactly when the strike begins and ends, depending on where you are located, please see this:
http://beckyzoole.livejournal.com/395125.html

What's this about?

* It's about free and ad-free LiveJournal accounts being abolished for new members, ignoring the advice from the newly-formed Advisory Board.
* It's about LJ staff trying to sneak this decision in under the radar, and when people found out, telling the users it was done 'to make the signup process less confusing'.
* It's about LJ staff failing to apologize for trying to hide the facts from view and for lying about the actual reasons for their actions.
* And finally, it's about the latest decision to hide certain user interests from the list of Most Popular Interests, some of them being fanfiction, bisexuality, sex and depression. This decision was not announced or explained in any way. Users found out for themselves.

everyone else is doing it... :]

Step 1: Put your music player on shuffle.
Step 2: Post the first line from the first 37 songs that play, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 3: Strike through the songs when someone guesses both artist and track correctly.
Step 4: Looking them up on Google or any other search engine is CHEATING!
Step 5: If you like the game post your own.

seriously guys, there's some in here that are ridiculously easy. )

if you want me to upload any of these songs (or other songs by these artists), let me know. :]

Dear Santa...

Dear Santa,

This year I've been busy!

Last Tuesday I saved a busload of nuns in Angola (326 points). In February on a flight to Vancouver, I stole the emergency flight information card (-40 points). In May I committed genocide... Sorry about that, [info]bethanyedwards (-5000 points). In June I ate my brussel sprouts (1 points). Last month I signed my organ donor card (28 points).

Overall, I've been naughty (-4685 points). For Christmas I deserve a lump of coal!

Sincerely,
shim_shim

Write your letter to Santa! Enter your LJ username:
