My readership has suddenly hit 50, which means that cultural tradition tells me to publicly humiliate announce the milestone LJer, [livejournal.com profile] justwallpaper. Bet you didn't know you were signing up for that.

Secondly, I'm vaguely disappointed that tonight's Einstein Factor didn't go to a third set of tiebreak questions. And that the one on the end sitting like an idle lump somehow managed to win. He should lose many, many points - the show specifically says that you have to know everything about something, and something about everything.

For the moment, that is all. I'm off to make some icons. By 'off', of course, I mean staring at a Photoshop window while leaving Gmail open in a Firefox tab to check itself, and openly pouncable via 3 different IM thingies and Trillian.

Damn. Was I the 49th or the 51st caller?

I'm never good at these contests.

I think you were 47th or 48th, actually.

It was a matter of a day or two, I must've been close to 50.

46, I think. I'm not entirely sure; I looked and saw 49 last night, and wrote down all the names, and had another peek today.

How long have you been watching Einstein Factor? COs I was on it, but last year.

I started with the first one, but I've missed a few and forgotten some others. What was your subject?

Red Dwarf.

I got beaten by an incomprehensible Scottish bloke whose special subject was Genghis Khan.

Hmm... Oh. OH! I remember you!

Really?

I don't usually wear glasses, by the way. I lost a contact lens three days before the taping.

And whatsisname... Tony Moclair? He's an arse. He made a really, really lame joke about SF conventions being held on the Virgin Islands.

w00t! I actually do remember you! I also remember wanting you to win.

And not just because your special subject made my head sing a song. It's cold outside...

There's no kind of atmosphere.

It is cold outside. I don't want to go out there.

If I got my way, then you could be having fun, fun, fun.

In the sun, sun, sun. :)

I still want to whap the guy who won the last one with a nerf baseball bat.

I stopped watching it -- I don't think I was home at the right time, a few times in a row -- but sometimes I catch the multiple choice section. I never really notice who's playing, though.

Really? *looks at notes* You didn't tell me that before.

I have, like, being-fiftieth-person talent.

Yyyyeah.
