all the kool kidz are doing it

Caro at Third Time Lucky introduced me to this game/meme/thing. You google "[your name] needs" and see what the first ten results are.* Give it a whirl. I know I got a lot of insight into exactly what Niobe needs. Better than a fortune cookie even.

Niobe needs a supporting structure to grow properly.
Niobe needs your help in making it to the reactor core.
Niobe needs twice as much calcium as Snow White.
Niobe needs to step up to the plate and be honest.
Niobe needs to be fully automated to really take off.
Niobe needs to grow a spine.
Niobe needs as many friends as she can get.
Niobe needs pruning.
Niobe needs the companionship.
Niobe needs your help again.



*If your name is very common, you'll want to skip over those results that are just other blogs playing the same game. If your name is very unusual, you may just be out of luck.

I like this one. I got funny results I'll go post at my place - nothing quite like your "reactor core" or being "fully automated," considering the biblical roots of my name.

Niobe needs as many friends as she can get.
Reminds me of yesterday. I'm sure your friends are still thinking of you and would be happy to hear your voice.

S said...

Ah well, since sara paved the way for me, I probably don't need to check "sarah."

niobe said...

And here I was thinking that Slouching Mom was going to say: "Sara needs an h".

Magpie said...

So calcium is why Snow White is so white?

Caro said...

You got some good ones. I didn't realise you were an invertebrate.

Still Born said...

StillBorn needs vocalist
StilLboRn needs a life
Stillborn needs a new drummer to complete the puzzle of orgasmic music
Stillborn needs to correct Apache
Stillborn needs some instructions
stillborn needs a half-page death notice
stillborn needs a way out


puzzle of orgasmic music indeed, good sirs...

Furrow said...

All that extra calcium might help you grow a spine, but it will also mean you'll continue to need pruning.

"Furrow needs to be reformed." Amen.

Joy said...

Wow. Some of those seem quite deep. I'm almost scared to do my own.
Maybe Trish needs to hide.

niobe said...

Trish: C'mon. It'll be fun. I promise.

Furrow: Haven't I been pruned enough already?

Stillborn: Those are very close to perfect.

Magpie: And so what does it mean if I need twice as much calcium? My chances for getting a tan this summer are not looking good.

LeRoy needs a secretary.
LeRoy needs to find and/or train sharp shooters (I wonder for what?).
LeRoy needs your help now (for sure!!)
LeRoy needs 0+ blood (it is my blood type too!)
LeRoy needs a job.
LeRoy needs to do the same for Davey (whoever Davey is)
LeRoy needs weekly classes to benefit fully...and lastly

LeRoy ou sound like you need a break (Oh so very true lol).

Very fun and light. I like it!

Oooh, I'm doing this over at my place. I love blog posts that need so little creative input on my part. Especially these days.

And if need my help making it to the reactor core, just give a holler.

Aurelia said...

Snicker, mine all seem very boring. Maybe I'll skip over some of the the results, and just prune the good ones?

Christine said...

Christine needs a personal assistant twice a day

hell yeah

BasilBean said...

So my real name is sort of common and kind of boring. Basilbean resulted in nada. Basil resulted in "needs lots of light to grow" and similar needs. Maybe I will do what Aurelia suggested and go in and "prune the good ones."

Thanks for the idea. It was fun reading these.
