On October 6th, [livejournal.com profile] grahamsleight posted an irresistable meme:
Put "[Your given name] needs" into Google and post the top ten results.

So here goes.

Ellen needs . . .

. . . You.
. . . Community's Support.
. . . care 24 hours a day.
. . . to look to God?
. . . to get away from the problems of her relationship with her boyfriend Jordan.
. . . to answer this question: is my life worth living?
. . . to keep moving south and west where there is more breeze . . . .
. . . Wit for This Emmy Gig.
. . . a break.
. . . to keep her fluid intake up.

* * *

8 out of 10 - amazing!! It's enough to make you believe in cartomancy (or is that Googlemancy?).

or is that Googlemancy?

It's enough to give you a Google "Big Brother" complex.

Or would that be a googleplex?

Ah, dear. That's a lovely meme with your name, but I'm afraid when you share your name with Jessica Simpson and some girl on another MTV reality show, your results are like this:

1. Jessica needs to keep her mouth shut sometimes instead of just
blurting out whatever is in her head.
2. Jessica Needs Cash.
3. Jessica needs a bit of time off by herself to process things.
4. Jessica needs an adoptive family that is very structured.
5. Bush-Wacked Jessica needs some coaching, and instead gets an earful
and an eyeful ahead of schedule.
6. Jessica needs to grow a set and stick up for her self.
7. Jessica needs to keep her effin hands off my boy. and i mean bam not nick...
8. Jessica needs a whole lot of timeout.
9. Jessica needs a nice romance that is free of angst.
10. Jessica needs fake titties and then she would be perfect.

Although I did quite like the one after the last, "Jessica needs anything she wants." Interesting idea though, your results were much better than mine! I wonder if it's too late to become a Jasmine or an Elizabeth or an Alexis or something.

Well, for some reason I keep getting logged out. But anyway, I'm talulanightmare here on LJ. I just had to add that, because annonymous posts are always kind of creepy to me, I'm not sure why.

Fun meme!
My favorite was,
"...if Big Laramie needs a whole bunch of money for something and the rest of us are pretty flush, then okay"

They're not so much creepy as baffling - it's always nice to have context for peoples' comments.

Why don't you try "talula needs" and see what you get?

time to stretch
a new pose
more foreign travels
down time after dog fiasco
you!
her own thread
a ride for two to San Ramon
to be on twitter

I especially like the one about the ticket....where is San Ramon?!

Greetings, Ellen
