Rollin', rollin', rollin'--keep those requests rollin', Pimphide!

[livejournal.com profile] starlady42: "Not so much a pimp request as a some-of-your-readers-might-find-this-interesting-maybe... I'm doing a six-week solo driving tour around the American West (and twelve national parks) this summer -- if anyone is interested in keeping up with me, they can add [livejournal.com profile] ontheway_lj to their friends list. Also, my friend Heather is a semi-professional photographer... folks can check out her amazing work at hmstanfield.com. I'd support a cleolinda/LovelyEmily presidential ticket, just so you know. ;) "

[livejournal.com profile] kali_sama: "I'm the mod of [livejournal.com profile] hpchallenges and I would indeed love pimpage (huggles to [livejournal.com profile] squee1123 for pointing me here). The gist of the comm is that every fortnight, I post a challenge and members can do anything to answer said challenge-pic, fic, drabble, icon, whatever! It is, to my knowledge, the only community like it for the HP fandom and I would love more members and more participation. ^_^ "

[livejournal.com profile] yuki_onna: "Well, there's all my novels, should you like to pimp them. All three currently orderable are here (The Labyrinth, Yume no Hon: The Book of Dreams, and Oracles)."

[livejournal.com profile] october31st: "If you're still pimpin', I'd like to mention that my friend [livejournal.com profile] tymothytoastman has just posted the first episode of his "science fiction radio drama" online. He's been really excited about creating this and I'm sure a bunch of random listeners from out of the blue would rock his world. I'll be appearing as the character Kate around the 5th episode or so. If you like post-apocalyptic futures, you'll love this! Oh, and if you could pimp my journal ([livejournal.com profile] october31st, of course), that'd be great too, in a far more selfish way. I just like new friends. Thanks so much, oh generous one!"

[livejournal.com profile] ayn_rand_fan_13: "I would love you forever if you would pimp my community [livejournal.com profile] charlieispretty. It's just for people to post fanfiction, music videos, fanart, or just generally squee over Charlie from Lost."

[livejournal.com profile] foresthouse: "I just started a community for fans of the awesome Irish comedian, Dylan Moran. He's a stand-up comic who wrote and starred in Black Books and played David in Shaun of the Dead. We're having an icon-making contest that starts tomorrow, and we really want to get the word out to anyone who's a fan and wants to join in. Everyone is welcome at [livejournal.com profile] yourdailydylan!"

[livejournal.com profile] kittikattie:
If you might, pimp my fanfiction (Harry Potter). Birds of a Feather: First Flight (I'll be starting the second book, Second Takeoff, soon). Found on Fictionalley here: http://www.schnoogle.com/authorLinks/Nethilia/, and on my site at http://www.spenecial.com/birdsofafeather/fanfics.htm. It's basically a parallel of the books (some AU, but mostly due to cultural mistakes and canon shift) through the Ravenclaws in Harry's year.

[livejournal.com profile] t4_flirt: "Here are two simple lil requests for Pimp Week:
1.) my yahoo group - ThatStarThatShines, a promo group for NYC based singer Chris Trousdale
2.) For all you fic writers- The communtiy called The Boyband 100. We're trying to get the communtiy really active again, and could use some new drabble writers on board. Look under the user [livejournal.com profile] boybanddrabbles for the link. I'm not a mod, but the mods deserve some pimpage. THANKS! *MUAH* "

[livejournal.com profile] megmatthews20: "My plee for pimpage...I've written a series of rough, semi-vulgar, conceivably offensive dialogs, which I posted on my lj. If I can get one person to laugh I'll feel I've done my job. And if you could link to them, that would make my day. They're basically a bunch of stories that kinda, sorta, not really link together in the end. They are as follows (in order of creation):
1st Machete Man number 1
2nd Video watching dialog
3rd Zoo Escape
4th Machete Man 2
Thanks muchly."

[livejournal.com profile] allthelivesofme: "Could you put up a link to Andrea Gabriel's blog? For she is funny and cool and she deserves it. :-) (she's the actress who played Nadia on Lost)"

[livejournal.com profile] apples_juice: "Ever wanted to make comments on a rate me community, but couldn't cause you weren't 'approved'? Then join [livejournal.com profile] x_rejects_x and make all the comments you want! Note: This is not a "Rate Me Community", so don't worry about being approved or rejected! ^.^ "

[livejournal.com profile] kira002: You already pimped for me once (Crusade for Charity), so my amnesty may be all used up. But just in case...Lost-Tees.com!"

[livejournal.com profile] soleta: "I co-mod [livejournal.com profile] fellytone_fic, in which we record HP fic to mp3, and lord do we need more readers. so. come, let us adore you?"

[livejournal.com profile] iczer6: "It'd be great if you could pimp the new Girl Genius comic. It's a truly awesome comic done by the talented Phil Foglio, it's used to be a paper type comic but something went wrong so they went online."

[livejournal.com profile] shaelbopp: "Say, could you pimp my music archive, or did I miss the ho-train?"

[livejournal.com profile] notthequiettype: "I and my roommate mod [livejournal.com profile] awesome_points, which is really as dorky as it sounds. It's a community in which we award points based on challenges and what-not and it results in PAID TIME for the winner. We need members and the people that read your journal are awesome enough to be awarded points just for breathing."

Again: flattery will get you everywhere.



Misc links:

outlier at Snarkfest has come up with a one-size-fits-all complaint form for indignant fans to file after any offending movie adaptation comes out:

Did the producers even bother to

  • read the book / comic / manga ?
  • watch the original?
  • consult the fans?
  • consult me?
  • kill a goat and read its entrails?

I remember when I first encountered title at school. I

  • laughed non-stop for days
  • collapsed and wept
  • immediately bought the rest of the series
  • went through puberty

I could have done better special effects on my Amiga 5000! And actor was completely wrong as character. They should have cast

  • Orlando Bloom
  • Arnold Schwarzenegger
  • Samuel L Jackson
  • Jessica Alba (she's TEH HAWT)
  • Keanu Reeves
  • Kofi Annan


Why, look! It's the Alien 3: Dog Alien Chestburster Plush Replica!

Fairy tales linked to violent relationships. The sad thing is, I can totally see it.

New movie stills at Movieweb: Superman; Mr. and Mrs. Smith; Kingdom of Heaven; and Star Wars.

The smaller then usual "S" is already setting off the fanboy fireworks. Rioting everywhere. Anger erupting in a greasy, doritos-smelling volcano of whininess. Who will save us from this maelstrom of malcontents! This looks like a job for...

I can definitely see the fairy tales thing, too. :-(

On a happier note, that complaint form is great. "They should have cast Kofi Annan!" *snicker*

Thanks again for the Pimp Amnesty week! This has been fun.

Please pimp my community [livejournal.com profile] ghpp, The Guerilla Haiku Postcard Project. The gist of it is, write a haiku on a postcard, mail it anonymously to whoever you want, and post it. It's been dead in there for quite awhile, maybe some new blood will freshen it up.

You're the Scarlet Pimp-ernel! I bet NO ONE else has thought of that yet.

ANYWAY, could you give a shout out on behalf of [Bad username or site: http://www.livejournal.com/community/who_new_who/ @ livejournal.com], a comm for people who've falled in love with the new Doctor Who series? We want lots of people to come join so we can all be psycho fanatics together. Thanks!

Omg, i just realized you pimped something for a guy i hooked up with in real life. That is too weird.

I'm no good with time zones, but hopefully the ever-magnanimous [livejournal.com profile] cleolinda is still using her mad skillz to help out the less fortunate (and less popular).

So, my pimp request? [livejournal.com profile] negability. Literary history RPG. Yeah, you heard that right. It's just starting, and we're really hurtin' for characters. Any English author born before 1900 is fair came.

Come on. It's only the awesomest thing ever. ;)

And by "fair came" I of course mean "fair game." I can't even think of a pun to make regarding my typo. I'm sure somebody else can, though. ;p

Could you also be so kind as to point out that tomorrow (April 23rd) is 24 Hour Comics Day? It's a worthy cause overflowing with geekery. Hooray! Further information can be found at www.24hourcomics.com.

(please disregard this if someone else has already asked you to pimp it, as I'm frequently lacking in observational skills.)

Heyla!

Pimping!

Heard the latest backstreet song? Feeling a resurgance of love/hate/interest? Join [livejournal.com profile] backstreetboys and keep up with the happenings. :)

Also, like seeing naked people's naughty bits? [livejournal.com profile] celebritease is where it's at.

And while I'm here, let me sheepishly do ask the following. Please join? (http://i-squad.com/link/link/Mjk2MDQxfDIyOQ==) You don't even need to do anything, I just want the points. :)

a street team, 'cept online. I think the kids are calling it an e-street team, nowadays? In any case, yeah. It's supercool, for the five minutes I've been a member. You get people to join! and you get points! When people join! And that's pretty much it.

Is there spam involved? Are y'all selling something? I'm just wary of posting something to 1500 people and I don't know or understand what it is.

Date: 2005-04-23 03:36 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] greensounds.livejournal.com
...hmm. Just joined myself. I don't think so?

They seem hardcore and serious as e-streeters, and nothing else. We're just promoting the backstreet boys come back in a grassroots way, as far as I know.

You know, if you're still uncomfortable, you can hold back on that last one. If I don't get any spam by the time the next pimp week rolls around, I'll give you it to you again, if it's still relevant.


...aw bummer. I was all excited, too. Heh. ah well.

Ahhh, okay. "Promoting the Backstreet Boys" was the part I was missing somehow. ("Wait, they do... what?") I'll pimp it, but maybe with a caveat or something. : )

For whatever it's worth, I know a lot of people who've joined I-Squad, and I've never heard anyone complain. I have heard many of them squeal with joy over the cool stuff they get, though.

I don't think my pimp request made it into the April 22 thing, and besides, one of the links I gave is wrong, so I'm putting my request here again, if that's okay...

Do some o' dat Cleo magic and pimp for me my fic comm [livejournal.com profile] literarydebris (all pairings and ratings accepted, open membership), and my LOSTr (LOST+LoTR pairings)/Star Wars crossover fic Discord Among Us. Chapter 1 be here (http://www.livejournal.com/community/literarydebris/6821.html), and Chapter 2 be here (http://www.livejournal.com/community/literarydebris/6975.html).

The link for Chapter 2 here is the correct link, not the one I gave in the other request.

THANKS MUCHLEH, Ms CLEO!!!!!!!!!!!!! MUCH LURVIN...

Thanks for the shoutout!

Also (and I forget in my rabid fandom if I've mentioned this to you before), I think you would appreciate Dylan's sense of humor - you should def. check him out. You can see some clips of his standup and Black Books Here (http://www.bbcamerica.com/genre/comedy_games/dylan_moran/dylan_moran_video_clips.jsp) and Here (http://www.bbcamerica.com/genre/comedy_games/black_books/black_books_video_clips.jsp). My favorite of his standup is the one about cancer and science. :)
