Meme ripped from the pages of theferrett...

Name 6 LJ users you want to have dinner with.

I started off with a list of 17 people and then slowly whittled it down. After 5 minutes of reluctant deletion I ended up with 9. None of whom I can get rid of without somebody physically pointing a gun at my head.

brandnewgun
darkoshi
green_amber
heron61
rahaeli
rollick
theferrett

Oh, in alphabetical order, just in case you were wondering.

The reasons for all of them are pretty much the same - people I find fascinating online, have usually had interesting arguments with, and in some cases have chatted to over IM.

I'm pleased, you would also be on my list. I'd love to see your reasoning behind these choices.

[andrewducker]

I added a note basically saying "I like reading the things these people write, I've enjoyed arguments/discussions with them and in some cases I've enjoyed chatting on IM with them."

No big secret about it :->

We could kill two birds with one stone… I could have dinner with you AND point a gun at your head.

IMHO, you're going about this all wrong. You should pick people you don't normally talk to, like jesus, darthvader, alyson_hannigan, etc etc.

Sadly, they're supposed to be people on my friends list, and none of those are...

ty, that makes my day...

but i was just thinking, wouldn't it be an amusingly nefarious trick to put some javascript in one's post which would somehow get the username of the person reading the page, and insert their name in the list, so nobody would feel left out..

oh, and take a look at darthvader's journal, like gemma/gld199 suggested. it's a hoot!

I guess I eat too much raw fish, eh? ^_^;;

[andrewducker]

The raw fish I can cope with.

It's the way you floss your nasal cavities over hors d'ouvre that gets to me...
