Bowling, icons, Zooarch prof quotes Lecture 3

Bowling went well. I surprised myself by winning the two games we played, and ended up with a really cool Tokyopop poster. I'm also rather surprised that of the three icons I had in contests this weekend, two of them won first place.

I realized last night that I forgot to post my Zooarchaeology professor's best quotes from Friday's lecture, so here they are.

On leaving class - "If you just fall over, you can leave at any time."

On his computer's wallpaper - "Oh, even kitty's back. That's good." He then proceeded to tell us what great scavengers cats are and how they'd devour anything, bones and all.

On his slide show not working - "I tested everything to make sure it worked perfectly, which is why it isn't."

On his slide show - "The photos are not so pretty. They are all dead animals."
(Which wasn't technically true... in fact, there were scarily cute pictures of tiny dogs posed strategically with bones, both of which I have found on the internet.)
( Cute )

I'm not exaclty sure how we were supposed to take him seriously when he explained what ferocious carnivores dogs are while we were staring at those pictures.

On thinking - "I hope your brains are clicking around."

On finding hamster bones in a burial - "Of course, it was not a ritual hamster sacrifice."

Icon contest pimping

I'm taking a moment to pimp trigun_awards, lj icon award contest for Trigun simply because they have the lowest turn out I've ever seen when it comes to icons and voters. While it's kinda fun to place every single time I enter, they really could use more people and I know there's icon makers and Trigun fans on my friends list, so even if you don't want to make an icon for it, try voting.

Also, there's a huge amount of these icon award communities out there which are a ton of fun to participate in either through voting or making icons. Some are very specific like utena_awards or fma_awards, others more general like bishonenawards *g* Check out the profiles on most of the award pages and you'll find links to all the ones out there atm.

My personal favourite is anime_hush where you can use any anime, but icons have to be textless. That's always much more entertaining to me then thinking up something trite to throw on an icon.
