ONE To my favorite person in the universe:
Happy happy birthday!
I'm so happy you were born. So happy that the universe conspired for you to be brought ~into my life~ to inspire me, make me happy, give me music I will listen to forever. I'm so happy to be a fan, to be following such an incredible person inside and out. KRISTOPHER. You got me for life, mmkay? <3
TWO In celebration of Pocket Idol's 24th birthday (and after the ~controversy~ that was #gokeyisadouche-gate 09),
KANation.com and
ontd_ai joined forces to make the hash tag #happybdaykrisallen a trend on Twitter. A bunch of members scoffed and said that we wouldn't be able to do that without the powers of main ONTD. BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, BENCHES? WE DID IT!
HECK YES!
Thanks to
buffyx for the ghetto Photoshop work.
It peaked at #3 and then slowly went back down when people from the States were going to bed. I spammed the heck out of that bitch - scared everyone following me, heh - and had the best time doing it. It felt so amazing to be able to use our ~powers~ for good this time around, to see the celebration of Pocket Idol's birthday rise above everything but the serious Iran situation, and the stupid un-punctuated, generic Father's Day greeting. :) VICTORY!!!!! Feel the love, okay?
THREE AND TO MAKE THINGS EVEN MORE AWESOME:
HOLY. FUCKING. SHIT.
Okay, so
aleapofaith came up with the idea of a
9pft-like birthday present for Kris, set to "No Boundaries". It was pitched to the comm, everyone jumped in,
soapy_chk89,
apriljoiex and I organized everything... AND THEN WE FIND OUT THAT KRIS KNOWS ABOUT THE VIDEO, AND HE WAS ASKING TO SEE IT. JFC. IS THIS REAL LIFE? I MEAN, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO HANDLE THAT?! THIS WAS JUST SUPPOSED TO BE AN APPRECIATION PROJECT FOR THE FANS, A CHANCE FOR PEOPLE TO BE CREATIVE AND HAVE A LITTLE FUN...
AND KRIS WANTS TO SEE IT. KRIS. KRISTOPHER NEIL ALLEN. HOLY SHIT, SON. BRB, squeeing forever.
FOUR And lastly.
This video may or may not have exponentially increased my squee this morning. JFC, DALLAS. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT YOU JUST WITNESSED?! GUH, THESE TWO.
IDK I guess I'm just very, very fixated on childhood sweethearts getting back together after they've both grown up a little, and can now have a mature relationship.
Ahem. No, I haven't put that much thought into this at all.

Hello, babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. At the outside, babies, you’ve got about a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies - God damn it, you’ve got to be kind.
