that crazy meme all the kids are doing

[trochee]

1. Think of a word you would use to describe me.
2. Go to Google Image Search and search for that word.
3. Select the picture you see as most fitting, and post it as a reply.
4. Post this meme in your journal.

Pre-emptively removing trochee visual images -- (try harder, ya slackers):


Fun with unintended collaborative use!

random question: do you know about some crazy linguistics camp that takes place over the summer somewhere really random like Bulgaria or something?..

[trochee.livejournal.com]

there are a couple of such camps. Are you referring to the SIL projects?

Then there's the Linguistics Olympiads, which might be closer to what you're looking for.

I don't actually know...my ex who went to grad school for linguistics talked about having gone to some place like that, and it sounded really bizzarre and I. like, couldn't comprehend exactly what it was and what was involved.

SIL rather qualifies as really bizarre.
