The object of the game is to stump the person writing the journal. I've been writing in my LiveJournal since who the hell knows when, and can't possibly remember all the topics I've talked about in that time. Your job, if you choose to accept it, is to go into the archives of my journal and pull out a random quote, only from public posts, and then my job will be to see if I can remember what I was talking about.
I promise not to cheat, but you will have to just trust me on that.
You tell me if I'm remotely right or wrong. Please don't pick a quote that's so random that it could apply to anything, like "feh" or "Damn it!" or something equally general. Pick something that might actually be about something.
Modification of the rules:
1. If you like, you can link to the entry in question when you post your comment. I promise not to click until after I've guessed.
2. If I can't tell where it's from, I reserve the right to make up a completely asinine fakepost involving the quote.
2a. Or I might just sit and pout.
3. If an entry seems personal, just not locked, please use your best judgment. I reserve the right to screen comments if they inadvertantly quote an entry that we should just pretend is locked, for the time being. None of them *should* be unlocked that ought to be locked, but a few of the older ones might be anyway.
Edit: Corrected spelling of LiveJournal. One word, capital L, capital J.

Oh. The shoes. I should've known that. And as soon as I saw the words "health department" and "brady bunch", the entire entry sprang into my mind, in a moment of vivid recollection.
