fun little find :

January 27, 2007 is Third Annual LiveJournal Rabbit Hole Day: for one day, let your journal mutate and describe wacky adventures in an inside-out world. When you do it, make sure you have a tiny disclaimer where you spread the word. Don't let that white rabbit just pass you by.

--post @ glamourbombs LJ

another event to bring back ? :)

"A few months ago1, I had a dream in which LiveJournal and everyone on it went completely nuts for a day. The entire world had turned upside-down and inside-out and nobody was their normal self anymore. And it was such a good read, that I think it should happen for real.

January 27th is the birthday of Lewis Carrol, author of ALICE'S ADVENTURES IN WONDERLAND. Alice fell down a rabbit hole into a place where everything had changed and none of the rules could be counted on to apply anymore. I say, let's do the same: January 27th, 2005 should be the First Annual LiveJournal Rabbit Hole Day. When you post on that Thursday, instead of the normal daily life and work and news and politics, write about the strange new world you have found yourself in for the day, with its strange new life and work and news and politics. Are your pets talking back at you now? Has your child suddenly grown to full adulthood? Does everyone at work think you're someone else now? Did Bush step down from the White House to become a pro-circuit tap-dancer? Did Zoroastrian missionaries show up on your doorstep with literature in 3-D? Have you been placed under house arrest by bizarre insectoid women wielding clubs made of lunchmeat?

Let's have a day where nobody's life makes sense anymore, where any random LJ you click on will bring you some strange new tale. Let's all fall down the Rabbit Hole for 24 hours and see what's there. It will be beautiful."

  1. "Not long ago, I was reading through folks' livejournal and Something had clearly Happened because nobody was posting about the usual stuff anymore. There were tales of crazed (and often illicit) sex, sudden and inexplicable changes of political heart, people quitting their jobs and moving across the country and even going overseas to become hired mercenaries and harem girls for rich princes and intelligence agents for foreign powers, strange and exotic pets that can't possibly be legal to own, nervous breakdowns, divine epiphanies, Kafka-like physical transformations, eerie supernatural encounters, abductions by masked men who reek of spices, crimes of passion, bizarre confessions, vows to previously unknown Gods...

    In addition to being a totally amazing read, it was sort of scary, especially as I had nothing of comparable madness to put alongside it. And I woke up this morning thinking, "I should totally get on the boat with this, I need to ride this insane wave while it lasts!" but poking about on LJ this morning, I am finally coming to the conclusion that it was just part of my dreams last night.

    Or, alternately, you've all gone back and deleted those posts, you tricky bastards, hiding all evidence of the crazy day you had yesterday, leaving me to stew in envy."
