Happy Birthday to me
Happy birthday dear meeeeeee
Happy birthday to me!

21st of February, my birthday.
So, the question is - if you could give me anything, what would you give as a birthday present? And what would you surely not give?

Date: 2004-02-21 03:14 am (UTC)I would give you..... An end to plagurists and an end to annoying fangirls. And what I would not give you would be anything writtenin teen speak, because I would have to burn it myself.
*hands over virtual chocolate* But that I can give you. Again, happy happy happy birthday.
Don't mind her, she's just severely sleep-deprived.

That would actually mean I'd get Tolkien as my boss as well. Eeep.

Feliz cumpleaƱos!
Let's see...a birthday present for Miss Cam. Real-life OFUM's been taken, so....a candlelit dinner with the man (or elf) of your choice. Black leather is mandatory, of course (for the man, not you).
At the risk of sounding redundant...Happy birthday!!!
Re:
Date: 2004-02-22 12:21 pm (UTC)I'd surely not mind wearing some leather myself though. High leather boots, for instance. Mmm-mmm.
Mnogaja Ljeta! Many Years!
Date: 2004-02-21 04:33 am (UTC)For your birthday I would give you a couple of bottles of the mead I brew and a case of Smithfield Bacon for all the minis in your hutch. I would also give you a very large hammer with which to smite badfic.
What I would in nowise foist upon you would be a gaggle of fangirls with poor grammar and worse sentence structure.
Re: Mnogaja Ljeta! Many Years!
Date: 2004-02-22 12:23 pm (UTC)I shall have to share the mead with my father, who's a mead-loving fellow.
Tell me, your icon, is that the British Bacon fellow who'sfirst name I cannot remember?
Hippo Birdie Two Ewes
Date: 2004-02-21 04:34 am (UTC)Now, gifts...
I would probably offer you a gift certificate to slap each and every world leader of your choice (and elbow-length rubber gloves if you don't fancy touching any of them). I'd also offer a dinner with twenty-four persons of your choice.
I would *not* offer you a dinner with 24 world leaders, because I don't believe indigestion is a good birthday gift.
Many happy returns, and may you enjoy yourself thoroughly.
Re: Hippo Birdie Two Ewes
Date: 2004-02-22 12:25 pm (UTC)I think I'd do Howard first. I've been gathering up a good urge to slap him ever since Tampa. I'd end with Bush because it's important to end on a high note. And the gloves are most thoughtful.

Date: 2004-02-21 06:11 am (UTC)Perhaps I'll give you something I really can give you- this MST I'm working on, once it's finished.
What I would certainly not give you is the original fic unMSTed. Because ai Valar, is it painful.

Date: 2004-02-21 06:46 am (UTC)What I would give you: Hmmm. gehayi's gift would be tough to beat. For humans to stop being stupid, perhaps? An endless, bountiful supply of top-quality fanfic? Or, failing those, a year's supply of marzipan.
What I would not give: Definitely NOT the Shrub, even naked and "seductively" bound. I'm sure you don't need to stop eating and lose weight that badly. I don't think anyone needs to lose weight that badly.
Re:
Date: 2004-02-22 12:28 pm (UTC)Humans stop being stupid would probably make the world rather dull in the long run, though. Hmm *ponders* But I'll take the marzipan!
And a mental image of Bush 'seductively' bound is not one I needed just now...
Merry Birthday!
Date: 2004-02-21 07:20 am (UTC)So, Merry Birthday and all that.

Gratulerer med den store dagen...
Date: 2004-02-21 07:26 am (UTC)Ah, a present for the ever so lovely miss Cam...
You can't go wrong with chocolate... my mum makes these absolutely delicious chocolate muffins, the most chocolatey muffins ever, and she fills them with vanilla creme.... Have a virtual birthday muffin. I'll even light a candle on top.
.....i....

Happy Birthday.
Re: Gratulerer med den store dagen...
Date: 2004-02-22 12:31 pm (UTC)If I have more cake or chocolate now, I think I'm going to die... On Thurday I was out and had lots of excellent food, on Saturday I went out and had lots of excellent food, and on Sunday I was home and had lots of excellent food, including 'fastelavensboller'.
So much food....

Date: 2004-02-21 07:44 am (UTC)What would I give? Hmm...A ticket to a huge birthday bash with the Riders of Rohan (and a few other select people).
And what would I not, under any circumstances give? Hm. A huge gaggle of Legolustbunnies. I'd say that would be a pretty crap gift to receive.

24 is a great age to be!
Date: 2004-02-21 08:57 am (UTC)Half an hour alone with all the most criminal fan girls.
And a baseball bat.
Being held by you.
Enjoy.

. . . Gah, just doesn't have the same ring to it in Latin.
Anyway . . . hmmmm, a birthday present . . . if I could, I'd get you an all-encompassing wardrobe of black leather.
What would I not get you . . . Bush demonstrating for your personal viewing pain exactly how all the black leather looked.

Re: felicem diem natalem!
Date: 2004-02-22 12:37 pm (UTC)I do actually have a bit of leather in my wardrobe, but not enough. There's never enough leather.
And thanks muchly for *that* mental image.

Date: 2004-02-21 11:02 am (UTC)I would most assuredly not give you all my Legoluster know-nothing students who really don't care about anything but Kwoot Guys!!!1!1!!

Date: 2004-02-21 01:12 pm (UTC)I WOULD NOT give you... a theme park created by George Bush.
Re:
Date: 2004-02-22 11:27 am (UTC)I suppose I'll settle with the World Domination equipment from villainsupply.com: A bottomless pit and an Elevator of Despair to start out with, for you to throw in gits--perhaps Fred Phelps?
On future birthdays, I'd get you some boreworms and brain-eating bugs and whatnot.
OR I would give you rockets with which to launch the gits to Venus.
Nah, in all seriousness, the present I'd really like to get for you is a world where all the gits stopped being gitty. I think that would be a birthday present that benefitted everyone--therefore, I think you would like it even more.
What I would NOT get you: Dinner with the Shrub during which your mouth would be taped up, so that he could go on and on and on about how God blesses America (and about how it's the bes damn country on Earth--never mind that many other countries are pretty dang nice), about the connections between Saddam Hussein and 9-11, about hidden weapons of mass destruction, and about how gay marriage should be banned...and you couldn't say a SINGLE THING back the whole time. He'd just smile and "Well, I can see by the way you're desperately struggling to get your gag off, that you agree with me wholeheartedly."
That is something I'd never, EVER get you, my friend.

As to what I wouldn't give you, I have't a clue. When I work out what it is, I'll be sure not to give it to you.

And a birthday song! ...well, those are annoying most of the time, so maybe not. It would have been in Korean anyway.
Of course, I wouldn't give you...something you don't want. Wow, isn't that an ingenious thought? o.o
