does the archbishop of canterbury know you talk like this?
I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE EUROS. BUT HOLLA, OLYMPICS SOON! i love sports so much, you guys.
i finally watched the history boys for the first time several days ago! i'm slowly reading through the play and dying a little at all the extra dialogue, haha. i love the boys so much, omg-and dorothy is, of course, a QUEEN. scripps and how put-upon and amused he is by everyone else's shenanigans is my everything, and i want all the fic about him. actually, i want all the gen/slice-of-life fic about all of them. JUST BOYS BEING BOYS. dakin, that complacent fuck! posner with his spaniel heart! RUDGE! HISTORY'S JUST ONE FOOKIN' THING AFTER ANOTHER! JEAN-PAUL SARTRE! crowther and akthar, wow, GREAT FACES, and the line about how churches were pagan temples to akthar had me in tears. TIMMS, SOMETIMES IT JUST FLOWS OUT, YOU KNOW, BRIMS OVER!!! and lockwood's cheeky "twenty what? hail marys?" oh god, i cry. i really couldn't care less about irwin, besides the fact that stephen campbell moore also has a really nice face, haha. ALAS. JUST GIVE ME EVERYTHING ABOUT THE BOYS, PLEASE AND THANK YOU.
i didn't want to inherit jamie parker and sam barnett feelings as a result of this movie but apparently that was unavoidable? and after learning that the two of them perform their rendition of "bewitched, bothered and bewildered" all the time, i can't get the thought of sam singing it at jamie out of my head, because my brain wants me to drown in my own tears. BUT REALLY, JAMIE PARKER THOUGH. PERFECT FACE, PERFECT FOREARMS, PERFECT VOICE, PERFECT PIANO PLAYING? fuck off, the world doesn't need you in it :(
the newsroom is still objectively terrible, but i seem to have developed a very intense dev patel situation in the past week that makes me want to claw my own face off. or his! either is fine, i'm not picky. i find myself continuously watching hbo's ~what's ahead~ promo video for the show just to hear dev's one line in it? I'VE GOT 99 PROBLEMS AND HE IS ALL OF THEM, BASICALLY. it sucks that he's so young, because he hasn't been in a lot of things and underhand_glory tells me skins isn't worth getting into for him, haha. watching slumdog millionaire once was enough, and i really do not want to touch TLA, ever, so pm the only thing i really CAN do is watch neal's scenes in the newsroom over. and over. and over again. I AM THE WORST.
i'm really glad he gets to use his natural accent in the show, though, because wow, do me on it. hbo renewed it for a second season a couple of days ago and i'm just happy because it means he'll be on my television screen more often! also jgj, who is also the sweetest. i want more alison pill and emily mortimer and their characters too, but i hesitate a little because, as we know, sorkin has a pretty bad track record with women. i think this is going to become one of those shows where i pick and choose my canon, if only for fic purposes, haha. case in point: i'm ignoring almost everything that happened in the latest episode besides neal asking jim out for a drink with the rest of the office! because that was honestly the one highlight of episode 2. #transparent and predictable for always
i saw safety not guaranteed in theaters last week, and it was so wonderful! aubrey was perfect! so were jake johnson and mark duplass and karan soni! i loved it a lot and the end was such a pleasant surprise to me. i want to go see spider-man too, but i'm running low on the $$$ and my pay check doesn't come until the 15th, sadly. which also sucks because beasts of the southern wild is supposed to be coming to the charles on july 13th, and i've wanted to see that for months. BEING AN ADULT SUX.
speaking of adulthood, would someone like to talk to me about the GRE? because my mom's been getting on me about preparing for it and when i'm going to take it and i realized that i have no idea whatsoever, aside from the rather dubious idea that it's the SAT on steroids? SEND HELP. TELL ME EVERYTHING YOU KNOW.
last but not least, have at the anonymous writing feedback meme! i'd love to hear your thoughts! ♥
