watch me whine about whiny people

[gengaoru]

Dear Aunt of Agony,
I am most very distressed. When I woke up this morning I had the most inescapable urge to listen to a 17 year old girl screaming over crunching distorted guitar, disjointed rhythm and super mario samples. Am I normal?God, why can't j-rock fans have a sense of humor about the shit they like the way post-rock fans do? Okay, so

Yup, the management at least needs to be respecting us more, you're right. And sometimes I think the band does too, although at least SOME of them I think appreciate us. I dunno, I'm trying not to get too philosophical about the whole thing, I'm always happier when I don't.

I dunno what your definition of fangirl is XD I fangirl over Toshiya because he's hot as hell. I'm pretty pathetic, I have even tried to make myself like the new hairstyle (still hoping for some head stubble here... my hopes were dashed by one of the more recent photos. Siiiigh...) My fixation on Toshiya and Miyavi is pretty bad, but I try not to be annoying about it, and I think that's kind of the difference between a fangirl and someone who just really likes someone or something... whether you care if you're annoying people about it XD I don't sit there with my boyfriend and talk about how dreamy Toshiya's chest is unless I'm deliberately trying to piss him of because I know better than that. I don't think fangirls actually get that not everyone wants to talk about their obsession.

I dunno, sometimes I have to be philosophical about these things, because some things just need to be said, even if I tell them my friends. Especially right now when some things really piss me off. We are even thinking about writing them a letter or an email (knowing they'll never read it), starting out "We're 3 girls from Germany, are all above 30 and this is not a fangirl-letter" XD

Well, I do fangirl with my friends at times, but - as you said - I try not to annoy everybody with it. Sometimes it's so sweet when my colleagues ask me about Diru (yeah, they all know the name XD) and my oldest colleague (she's almost 60) said that Kao looks hot. That's fun, you know. Gosh, but I would never fangirl that much when my b-friend is present. I wouldn't want him to point out how sexy Angelina Jolie or whoever is either.

I write Kaoru letters telling him how annoyed I am with him all the time XD I know he won't read them, but it's therapeutic.

My mom was always so cute about my crush on Toshiya when I was a kid and I didn't have the sense not to fangirl in front of everyone. She was always so sweet about it, I wonder how she put up with me. I guess that was easier to deal with than my RAGING MOOD SWINGS, though. As for my boyfriend, we have the same taste in women so I don't care if he comments on them, as long as it's nice things XD Hearing people insult celebrities other than Paris Hilton makes me feel insecure.

Well, I think even in my teenage time i was a moderate fangirl. I always was passionate about them, yeah, but never shoved it into everybody's face.

Haha, I did write them a couple of mails in the beginning of this year, telling that they DO have fans who have to work to make a living and have to tell when they need holidays so they better get their butts moving and give me tourdates. Weren't very nice mails either XD And, as you say, it's therapeutic.

But even if you have the same taste in women, wouldn't it bother you if he constantly pointed out how hot some things are in some other woman? I think it would bother me. Not right away, but if it'd happen constantly.

My dad was so sweet the other day (mark, he's over 60 XD). He really asked me when my little Japanese are coming back here and I said that I don't know and they don't give us the tourdates, so he said "I would quit their friendship". That was kinda sweet.
