Doug Orleans is attempting to spread a meme about, and well I’ll let him explain it:
Okay, I’ve never done an intentional LiveJournal meme before, and hadn’t really intended to, but this one seems sort of interesting. Is the object to see whether it eventually shows up in your friends list but not directly from you (or someone else on your friends list)? Anyway, I got it from elthar [I changed “band” to “artist” to account for Bowie]:
Your meme, should you choose to accept it, is to rank the following artists in order, from COULDN’T LIVE WITHOUT to COULDN’T CARE LESS. To add value to this process, you must also add one artist to the list, and remove one artist from the list, before passing the meme on (including these instructions).
The original list is back on Doug’s site. I’m deleting Jethro Tull, adding Pink Floyd, and ordering it as follows:
Pink Floyd
REM
Led Zeppelin
David Bowie
Sex Pistols
Duran Duran
Fleetwood Mac
Queen
The Pixies
The Beatles
Nirvana
Oasis
Seems a lot more interesting and fun than the ones i get or used to get to read the sob story, make a wish, and forward to fifteen people or bad luck will strike.
i’ll be waiting for the post where someone sends you the memes for ranking your favourite films, country to visit for vacation, L.A. meal at restaurant, etc……
