My sister thanks you all: her sample size doubled after I posted.

Here's a game I'd like to try: Comment, and I will write an entry (about my own life, naturally) in the style of one of your journal entries.

Comments

Yes! Try to mimic my style! I dare you!

[jere7my.livejournal.com]

This quite piques my curiosity. A.k.a., "Do me! Do me!"

[aryanhwy.livejournal.com]

I'm curious too. I didn't know I had a style!

[reasie.livejournal.com]

It's like, shared intraspection. Diabolically curious! Do I have a style? Please tell me it's not "Blah blah blah I hate myself blah blah blah"

:P

[metaplasmus]

This is difficult to resist.

[yagowe.livejournal.com]

I'd be curious to see what my style looks like to others. Sure!

[braidsofdeath.livejournal.com]

I'm feeling evil, so I'm commenting even though I don't update very often and we've hardly even met in real life, either. So, because I'm evil.

[ursula]

Hmmm. Maybe I will not label who is who. Then you can be a wild card!

[betzle.livejournal.com]

Curiouser and curiouser. When you have time.

[aelfgyfu.livejournal.com]

Doom. Climbing Dude. Work sucks. People should get me neat things. And buy my glass. And did I mention that work sucks? Hmmm... less verbose, and needs more smiley faces. Lets see what you come up with.

[minkoflove.livejournal.com]

do ramón, i dare you...

[belmanoir.livejournal.com]

Mememememememe!

[flammifera.livejournal.com]

I would be fascinated to see how my entries come off to someone else. Plus, it'd be fun to hear about your life! :)

I did this exercise in high school, for a 8-week writing class where we re-wrote a few paragraphs (that had been translated into English) in the style of various authors who'd originally written in English (Poe, Bradbury, Austen, etc.), and I still remember it as one of the most fun classes I ever took!

[ursula]

What, you don't think my own style demonstrates my life? ;)

[flammifera.livejournal.com]

Of course it does, but you don't update very often. Now there will be lots of updates!

[ursula]

Indeed there will . . .

[handful.livejournal.com]

I'm late to the train, but mimicking me should be a breeze! XD

[ursula]

Admit it, you're just into the pasta ;)

[handful.livejournal.com]

Rawr.

[ornerie.livejournal.com]

this I gotta see ;)

[sildra.livejournal.com]

Ok, now I'm curious to see if I have a sufficiently distinctive style that I'll be able to recognize it.

[ursula]

I guess Boring Entry #37 would be too easy . . .

[cija.livejournal.com]

You can do me, too, if it's not too late and if you get to it. But you must not be mean! Even thought it would be easy.

[tejolote.livejournal.com]

This should be fun.

[nobu.livejournal.com]

I am unique! You cannot imitate me!!!! also, cookies!

[ursula]

1) Was that a statement, or a dare?
2) Is that an offer of cookies?

[crystalpyramid]

Nifty! Do me?

[foxen.livejournal.com]

Okay elfie talked me into it. Sign up me.

[house-elf.livejournal.com]

a little late getting on the bandwagon, but this should be interesting.

[pandorasbox.livejournal.com]

Sure hit me up sweet siter

[dymaxion.livejournal.com]

This has been amusing...  What do I look like?

[kid-prufrock.livejournal.com]

(Okay, look, if you ever feel like imitating me, it'd be hilarious; the game is jsut too terrific to pass up...)

[dreamriver.livejournal.com]

I'd be interested to see if I have a cohesive enough style to work for this game. :-)

[ursula]

You're harder, since (I think?) I don't know you, but I'll put you on the list.
