will variations on this meme ever get old? I think not

Choose one of my icons (by keyword) and I'll tell you something about it. Or probably several somethings. In fact, I'll probably natter on a bit, because it turns out I'm a little obsessed with shiny graphics in small sizes.

Haha! Where to start?

First off, I love that it's making fun of the Byronic hero trope which is one I can't stand. OH HE'S SO TRAGIC AND MISUNDERSTOOD AND ALL OF SOCIETY IS AGAINST HIM BOOHOOOOO! It's just ripe to be mocked.

I also love the picture it stirs of a poet sitting in the corner being consumptive and tragic. It makes me laugh. I mean, the picture is so clear!

Also, it lets me make fun of various characters (see: Angel). Which is always a bonus.

Oh, and I love Keats, and it makes me think of Keats.

Yeah.
