Why don't I have an intro post?
Firstly - Hello to my new friends from the Bandom Friending Meme! I'm Addie. I...have no intro post to link to. Because I fail. Oh well, feel free to ask me anything!
Secondly - For no real reason, here is an alphabet's worth of things I like in picture/media form.
Apples
My favorite fruit! Being from Washington state, I'm kind of an apple snob. Heh.
The Beatles
Favorite Beatles lyric: "Because the world is round, it turns me on"
Cobra Starship
Still on a high from seeing them twice this weekend!
Doctor Who
I feel bad only Ten is reprsented here, because I do love me some Nine, as well.
Edward Norton
His only film I haven't seen yet is Down in the Valley.
Frank Iero
My second favorite band boy. My dad's favorite band boy. (I made him a Frank calendar for Christmas last year).
Gerard Way
FAVORITE BOY EVER. *draws hearts everywhere*
Hedwig and the Angry Inch
One of the first films I owned on DVD. In my top 5 movies ever. (Er, I suppose the clip is spoilery if you haven't seen it yet, which, OMG why haven't you?).
Ice skaters
Johnny Weir skating to John Lennon's 'Imagine'. My favorite exhibition piece by my favorite figure skater.
Julian Barratt
Hilarious, shy, talented, awkward. What's not to love?
Kittens
With the cute!
Love Games
Funky merman song, now with bonus Noel giggles!
My Chemical Romance
The band that made me feel passionate about music. I cannot wait to see them again in April. (And probably March, too!)
Noel Fielding
Another dark-haired, androgynous, art school graduate. Hmmm, I'm sensing a theme here. ;)
When asked who was sexier (between him and Julian), he answered:
"Julian. I hope I'm sexy, too... Sometimes I look in the mirror and see a woman. My nose has never been broken, but it's a fucking weird shape."
Office supplies
I don't know! I enjoy buying sharpies and tape and paperclips, what of it?
Panic at the Disco
My first bandom love. I cannot resist tiny boys who wear makeup.
Queer as Folk
The first TV show I obsessed over on DVD. I saw the last episode the day before I graduated from high school...somehow, at the time, it seemed like a bigger deal than graduation.
Russell Brand
Ridiculous yes, but also seems to genuinely care about the world. I've grown to love him quite a lot, and really want to read his book.
Simon Amstell
"And now I'm cool".
Trees
There's something magical about trees.
Unicorns
I swear, the two annoying unicorns? Remind me so much of my father. It's pretty hilarious.
Vince Noir
Rock 'N Roll Star!
Winchesters
Yes, I've lost much of my SPN squee over the past year, but sometimes I am reminded of how much they love each other I love them. The most recent episode was excellent.
XFM Interview in which The Mighty Boosh is interviewed by Simon Amstell
Includes quotes such as:
"It's not difficult to be funny when you're having sex". - Noel Fielding
"I'm laughing and laughing, and then I notice you're wearing quite...quite tight trousers. And then I'm not laughing. For about half an hour, I'm done. I'm just looking at your bottom". - Simon Amstell (on going to see one of Noel's shows)
Yogi Bear
Hey There, It's Yogi Bear! was my movie of choice as a child.
Zippers
Uhhh, I couldn't think of anything else for Z? But zippers look neat, and are useful for things that need zipping.
My apologies to all the things I love that didn't make the list. The letters F, J, M & P (to name a few) had some pretty tough competition. :/
Thirdly - How much do I love Frank Iero?
"I think, the message of the band is very universal. It’s to find a spark within yourself that makes you wanna get up every day and make this world a better place. And that is really why we started the band. We are not ‘kids’ either *laughs*. We are fucking old and I think that is great thing to take from this band: that you are never to old to drop everything that you were doing and to re-evaluate your life and to make yourself happy."
That's a good note to end on. :)
