THE INADEQUACY MEME



you're trying to do something and it's just not going right. whatever the task is, you are just not on your game today. you're going to need some help-- or at least, some sympathy. (or maybe just people to laugh at your ineptitude.)

comes in three flavors. red for fail smut, blue for general skills, and green for ridiculous ideas.

RED.
I. The Great Disappointment.
There was hype, or expectations, and it just wasn't what you were hoping. There's still time to please your partner, but you really need to step your game up.

II. Dying Magic.
Your love was once a burning flame, now; a flickering pile of embers. It might take something really out of your safe zone to get things interesting again.

III. Like a Virgin.
One or both of you seriously have no idea what you're doing, and it's getting really awkward. Time to reflect on what adult magazines and the internet have taught you.

IV. Come And Gone.
You just can't seem to last with your partner. Maybe they're too sexy, or you need some 'stamina training'...

V. All Fucked Out.
Routine and repetition have made sex boring. Your normal moves and skills aren't going to be enough tonight. You need to get creative.

VI. Got No Game.
The spark's not happening. It's time for some drastic measures... or settle for spooning.

BLUE.

I. Mystery Food X.
You have created food that is truly awful, tastes which should be outlawed. You might be a terrible cook or just an idiot-- either way, there is no nice way to explain this mess you've attempted to create.

II. Do It Yourself Repairs.
Whatever state it was in before you entered the picture, it's a lot worse now. You stare at the dismantled toaster in front of you and reflect on your life and your choices.

III. Fighting Words.
You talked a big game, but now you're wishing you hadn't-- you suck at fighting and now everyone knows it. You're simply outclassed and their fist is about to educate you.

IV. Everyone's A Critic.
No one understands your artwork. It's completely terrible (and not in a subjective way), but you still have faith in your poor art skills.

V. See Dick Run.
Who convinced you to try getting into sports and exercise? You're making an embarrassment of yourself.


GREEN.
I. Let's Get Meta.
Reply to someone with your character attempting (poorly) to RP as them-- then the other person can judge you, intensely. Your characters are now the muns. God help us.

II. Pipe Dreams.
Your character is having an identity crisis of some sort, and has decided to pursue a new profession or life dream-- something they have unrealistic expectations for, and totally blow at. It might be dull, Jack, but sometimes it's best to stick with what you know...

III. Choose Your Own Adventure.
Go for it, champ.

You call that music?

[ The nerve! Still, Not As Planned. You do not seem to be clutching your head or screaming. ]

Hmph! As if rejects like you could fare any better!

Simply relax and let our voices carry you!

Into an abyss from which there's no rising, that is....


[ Yet you've made them pause their song, Chris. ]
megadethparty: (happy)

[personal profile] megadethparty 2012-10-31 03:59 am (UTC)(link)
Don't make me laugh! I could sing better than you in my sleep.
sistersheshe: (♫ my little sister can't be this chatty)

[personal profile] sistersheshe 2012-10-31 04:33 am (UTC)(link)
Really? Then, why don't you--

[ Tsk, tsk. Sheshe shakes her head slightly. ]

Don't bother, Sister Mimi. While her paltry song'd doubtlessly fail to affect us, we'd still have to endure the performance.

It's sooooo true...a hack job's all something like her could manage! I don't want to hear it, Sister Sheshe~
megadethparty: (annoyed)

[personal profile] megadethparty 2012-10-31 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
[Chris huffs and moves into the defensive.]

Well, good, because there's no way I would sing for scum like you!

Ah. Did we strike a nerve?

Just as well! Open that big mouth again at all, and we'd have to teach you a thing or two....

Now, silently listen! We'll grant you a generous, final encore! Undeserving though you may be...

[ Sheshe simply does not have it in her to believe her song can flat out not affect somebody. So here we go singing again.

Please work. Please, please work. What is wrong with this girl. ]
