Orlestone runs away with me.

You know I don't usually do memes where they figure out which redshirt death on the first season of ST:NG you are, that sort of thing. But this is different: What Kentish Village Are You? It transpires that I am Orlestone. Gosh! I have a forest associated with me, and also this pleasant old church. Now that's a meme worth having!

(Although if you do happen to know which redshirt death on the first season of NextGen I might be, please do tell me. I'm unlikely to be familiar with it, but I'm sure to be fascinated. See also: which major US airport I am, which small ceramic Red Rose tea figurine, which type of party hat, etc. I don't want to have to go through the trouble of taking quizzes, so if you are harboring this sort of information, it would really save me a lot of time.)

It's amazing what associates with people. redbird, for example, associates with Lemon Zinger tea in my head, and I have seen papersky wear a shirt that is almost the color blue rysmiel associates with. But papersky, who properly ought to have a color blue in my head, has not; instead she has a fabric texture, a particular kind of woven linen-cotton blend. (I hasten to add that whatever other folks may think of Lemon Zinger, that blue, or that linen-cotton blend, I like them.)

Brains. A lot of trouble, but really quite entertaining when you get down to it.

Hm. Do you get synesthetic associations for people you have only met online, or for everyone, regardless of in-person acquaintanceship?

[mrissa.livejournal.com]

Not for everyone, but having met seems to be mostly irrelevant. Of the three examples in this post, I have so far met one of them in person.

Fascinating.

I associate with a shade of blue ? Gosh. Blue's not normally a colour I think of as mine.

[mrissa.livejournal.com]

I suspect papersky doesn't associate with a shade of blue in my head because the proper answer would be all of them. And that's not true for you.

I can't even remember the last time I drank Lemon Zinger--though I do like both tea and lemons.

Cincinnati (CVG). A well-connected hub that's just less well known than the big names, perfectly sized (neither huge and sprawling nor squeezed into a too-small space), unlikely to be disrupted by adverse weather conditions, and evoking the intersection of art and science/technology like the Winold Reiss murals.

Why, thanks!
