Long time no icons. :p But I got bored again.

Some of these are comm entries too... so, sorry if you've already seen them. :)



1.  2. 3.

4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

9.   10.

If you're wondering, the french on #9 is directly translated by me into 10. It's not exact. it's also not the best translation ever. :p

Comment & credit, but concrit is better. XD

Snagged #10, thanks

Could you try doing 9/10 with different font colors? I love the text but on some monitors it turns out to be very hard to read black text against the dark background...

No, that's great, thanks! I just found that some monitors blurred the dark colors together.

...YOUR QUICHE LOOKS YUMMIER THAN MY QUICHE. WHHHHHYYYYY? :(

Number three is crazy! (I'm still trying to figure it out, you see. >D)

Anyway, they are very cool beans! >D

THE UN-FAIR-NESS OF IT ALL! *weep*

Yeah, me neither. 'Cept the image I chose looks like pizza, whereas your image actually looks...quiche-ish. >D And well, I really couldn't care less whether you made it before or after mine. SH'COOL ALL THE SAME! >D

In the morning? ROCK ON.

Noooooo problemo-o-o-o-o! <--echo sound

*tries to wax eloquent, but fails* OH WELL.

I don't think I like quiche. Or if I do, I don't remember it. >D

New Zealand! Too cool. My friend's cousin lives in New Zealand. And another friend just got back from New Zealand. I'm just in the ol' US of A, being (un)constructive, engaging in debates(with my dad and sister), and starting (to get sleepy). >D WOOOOOO.

Ew. Tomatoes! I have this little thing against tomatoes. Ketchup is fine. But tomatoes...Eeeeeugh.

>D Neh, I don't care. Not to say I don't support the US, it's just that I don't really care. (Now, see, if you insulted China or Taiwan, or something, you'd get your butt kicked. ...I have no idea how that works out. >D)

Don't really like them either way, but I would prefer raw to cooked, yeah. They just look all...limp and weird cooked. EUGH.

OMG I LOVE TAIWAN TOOOO! ...of course, I'm biased, so eh. >D Really? That's so cool. I want to go to New Zealand! I feel so...American. Not that that's bad, but I haven't been outside this country for like what, two years? Depressing. :( One day I'm totally going to China. EEEE!

Uuuuurgh.

Yeah. I'm slightly scared of China, it being, yanno, the place where my great-grandparents died and all. In my mind I keep seeing pictures of tiny house and stuff. And then I have to go, "THIS IS THE 21ST CENTURY, DOPE." (It is, right?) Anyway, my brain is permanently stuck in this time-warp that says China is still a backwards hovel. >D

...I want to go to Sydney. *gape* And I went to New York once, on a tour with this Taiwanese choir. I was in a bus, and we passed two feet from The Lion King: Broadway Musical and I nearly cried because we couldn't go see it. >D And some of its people creep me out. This one homeless guy followed a girl for four blocks. Was kinda scary. O_o

As is those are good/bad books?

YAY! 21st century it is! My mind can be put at ease! :)

Really? We were out at night though, so maybe it was easier to notice them? I don't know. (Also, the guy told us that they lived on the church steps, so yeah. >) )

Lucky. >D

I can see what you mean. Yeah. It's very rare that I can find a book that does. :(

Nicked #2. Such a nice little quote *g*

They're all very nice . . . not nicking anything at the moment, though.

If you tell me about what page the quote from The Little Prince is from, I could try to find it in my English edition . . . And I've been told it is a very good translation by persons whose opinions I trust, so.

I reread it this morning, and handily dandily bookmarked the spot for just-in-case.

The equivalent, as near as I can make out, seems to be "[A]nd you will say nothing. Words are the source of misunderstandings."

You're welcome.

I was going to say the same as [livejournal.com profile] undeadgoat, it's actually quite a good translation -- probably the best you can get in English. At least, imho. :)

(The only other difference is "ne direz rien" -- say nothing. But, either way...)
