Icon Worship

[davidn]

Two pieces of good news recently, in that my replacement pendrive has arrived (this time with a decent-sized keyring attachment so I won't lose it), and my car radio has stopped asking for a "COdE" after I was provided with one by my "mUM".

To my astonishment I was tagged to do a meme about a week ago and I still haven't got round to it. Instead, I'm going to invent one of my own, containing just enough LJness to be feasible, just enough interactivity to be passable, and just enough niceness to... be nice, I suppose. I call it "Icon Worship".

Reply to this post with one or more of your LJ icons, and I'll say what I think about it, what it reminds me of, or what it means to me.

Then copy this into your own journal and propagate it all round the Internet so that I can be smug about having started it.

1. Sean Bean. I remember thinking that he had a name that is spelled much better than it actually sounds when I was very young and he was credited as narrating a nature program for some reason. I believe he's also going to be in the upcoming Silent Hill film, which may break new ground in being the first game to film conversion to not be catastrophically dreadful.

2. I've no idea where this icon is from, but it's rather happy and uplifting. Hooray.

3. A very good attitude, seeing as it's what we all are (unless "Muggle" takes on a new meaning in the fan community of which I'm not aware). What's most striking about the icon is its flagrant lack of punctuation - I remember pointing the same out about another one of your icons and helpfully correcting it. This made me feel like a despicable pedant for days afterwards, so being not one to learn from my mistakes I attempted similar surgery on this one, but was forced to give up after I was unable to insert an apostrophe convincingly between the N and T.

As for the icon you commented with, it contains a well-known image but which I can now only see as the Stratovarius logo.
