LURKERS!
Hi? Checking out my page? If you are thinking of adding me or have, well have a look below so you can see what to expect and be up to date. CONTAINS SPOILERS!:
Previously on LJ!
Counter Panic: I suffer from this. In my head I have a rehearsed script and if the check out person deviates in ANYWAY then I fall to pieces. Observe:
CounterDude: Hello
Me: Hello! I would like to purchase goods!
CounterDude: Of course! Would you like to obtain one of these DVD's for £4 with your item?
Me: …I…I…YES! I will buy all the DVD's. Some copies thrice. Have my purse!
This also applies to basically dealing with anyone as a customer. Like the time I went to a fancy Italian restaurant and somehow volunteered to change all the toilet rolls on their behalf.
Small Talk/Lying: I can't small talk. At all. For some bizarre reason I can only pass these awkward occasions with lies. For example earlier today at the coffee machine? Someone brought up the film "District 9" and asked if I had seen it. I advised I had not as the day my friends had gone I had been sick. Every single word of that was a lie.
Cowardice: I am not a hero. My mother and I were once chased by an angry dog. I escaped by throwing my mother at the dog, running into her flat and shutting the door on her pleading face. I would throw every last one of you into the path of oncoming danger to protect myself.
Pet Peeves: You know those people who walk at the EXACT SAME SPEED as you? So you can't overtake and you end up with a walking companion? I can't stand that. Or when you open a bottle with your teeth and the glass shatters your mouth. I hate that, too. I also can't stand people who win internet arguements via:
Me: Gosh! I love the colour green!
Random: Actually, green is a total disrespectful colour to mermaids and as a bi romantic pansexual it greatly upsets me. I was emotionally abused by my dentist seven years ago for the period of eight minutes, so I think you should change your mind and apologise.
Me: Excuse me. I'm just working that out on a bit of paper.
Random: SARCASM IS MY TRIGGER! SARCASM IS MY TRIGGER!
Random 2: I can't believe you just did that. You should warn if you're going to express an opinion that isn't the same as ours. It can be very triggering.
Random: SHAKING AND CRYING RN
Random 2: What kind of MONSTER are you?
Me: Jesus! Sorry. I like... blue?
Random: OH! SO NOW YOU WANT TO BE HOMOPHOBIC?
Starfucking: I, sadly, see only the Hollyoaks and Brookside cast these days. Scavenging at the Primark bins. But once over my main updates were of successful stalking (more so in the cases of Scissor Sisters, Rufus Wainwright and Robert Downey Jr). But now and then I refer to it in passing. In bold. In large font. In red letters. With a scroll. And a visit to your home with photos.
Icons: I make 'em, innit? Here at
moi_moi_lounge Bizarre Fears: Other than counters and small talk my other fears include- Rodney Dangerfield, Telescopes/Microscopes, eggs, Anime or adult cartoons, potatoes, bridges, Gary Coleman (RIP) and surprise hugs.
Irrational Dislike: I, for no known reason, will not go out of my way to watch anything starring Harrison Ford, Jodie Foster, Calista Flockhart, Scarlet Johanason or Cameron Diaz due to my irrational dislike of these people. I think they can act. I think they've had good movies. But no. Just no. Although I think there is a reason for the Diaz dislike. She's horrible.
Bette Davis: A 1930's to 80's actress I adore the bones of. I'm currently on a mission to watch all her films (have nerdy habit of doing people's back catalogue too. William Fichtner, Kiefer Sutherland and Robert Downey Jr are complete. Go on, test me!). Speak against her and I'll cut you. Then throw you at a dog.
Marra- That's you.
Bad Slash: I write it! I once wrote RPS AU slash about Darren Hayes and Daniel Jones (Savage Garden). If I ever refer to a Celebrity Brothel Time Machine it's from this. It starred such people as Darren Hayes, Paul McGann, Damian Lewis, Orlando Bloom, Stuart Townsend, David Bowie and Heath Ledger. Y'all should check it out it was truly epic. It had a maze in it, and then the title of the chapter with the maze in? That was called "Amazed"! IKR? I currently write in the Glee fandom and have previously wrote in Sherlock Holmes and Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang fandoms. Here's a
masterficlist.
Christmas Meme: Every Christmas I make people icons as part of an advent meme. This makes me sound nice but you should know the first year I did it I had 29 friends on here. I cut four for the sole reason that then everyone could have one.
GIF WAR: When I say GIF, you say WAR. GIF! ___ GIF!____. Basically every now and then I'll post these words. Come play.
That's pretty much all the recurring themes I can think of? If any long time f/listers can think of anything else to add? Or if anyone else has been wondering what I was going on about now's the time to ask!
Lastly, I leave you with a review from
rebness. I asked her to sum up my LJ.
"Classic film, pink (I dunno why) and Mean Girls. No, rly!"
Then I was, like, are you stupid? That's terrible. Go again.
"She's much nicer in real life. Honest."
DAMNIT!
"Reading this LJ will change your life! Okay, it will at least advance your knowledge of film, life in Liverpool and the more entertaining memes. Did I mention the icons? Because whoah."
From the heart, marras. From the heart.
