My journal says I'm 58% masculine.
What does your LJ writing style say about your gender?
LJ Gender Tool by [livejournal.com profile] hutta


Nipped from [livejournal.com profile] finabair

I obviously don't write about enough girly-stuff. Of course, I tend to run into things like that in real life, too. To earn money for college, I worked as summer relief in one of the local paper mills. One of the other college kids was helping me move some large rolls of paper. Now, rolls of paper that are 6 feet long get very heavy very quickly, and this guy says to me: Just grab that end of the roll and well toss it on the fork lift. This roll was about a foot thick, ain't no way I could "toss" it anywhere, so I say to him: Who do you think I am, Wonder Woman?

He looks at me and says: I haven't figured out what kind of woman you are yet.

I never did figure out what he meant by that.

Arrrrrrr!

Avast, me hearties!

Gather 'round, gather 'round. 'tis a pirate's tale ye will hear, filled with darin' battles an' teriffin' storms an' more pirate booty than ye can dream of. Leave the lan' lubber in ye behind as ye set sail for distant shores filled with adventure 'n grand pirate ways.


It's Talk like a pirate day. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] imbri6 for the heads up. I plan on scaring all my classes today by being pirate-like. And I'll keep the soundtrack to Pirates of the Caribbean on loop.

Remember: Take what ye can and give nothin' back.

I be wantin' a proper piratin' icon.

You are The Cap'n!



Some men are born great, some achieve greatness and some slit the throats of any man that stands between them and the mantle of power. You never met a man you couldn't eviscerate. Not that mindless violence is the only avenue open to you - but why take an avenue when you have complete freeway access? You are the definitive Man of Action. You are James Bond in a blousy shirt and drawstring-fly pants. Your swash was buckled long ago and you have never been so sure of anything in your life as in your ability to bend everyone to your will. You will call anyone out and cut off their head if they show any sign of taking you on or backing down. You cannot be saddled with tedious underlings, but if one of your lieutenants shows an overly developed sense of ambition he may find more suitable accommodations in Davy Jones' locker. That is, of course, IF you notice him. You tend to be self absorbed - a weakness that may keep you from seeing enemies where they are and imagining them where they are not.
