it's the greatest thing that's yet to have happened
There is something so unutterably delightful about the sheer notion of Panic! in a Combi van. And the reality pretty much lives up to that. I just. COMBI VAN. What the fuck and HEE, all in one delicious solution. Ugh, boys. (Although this is definitely a point where being a U2 fan does not pay off, because that tends to incline you to be wired kinda funny about Joshua trees and just- I know 3/4 of them are from Vegas! I have known this all along! So it shouldn't be quite the cognitive dissonance that it is.)
My course today was quite good - it was actually useful and made sense and actually made me feel slightly intelligent (and like I was doing SCIENCE) and like I maybe don't suck at my job, so hooray for all of that. Lunch was the only disappointing thing - the catering was a bit on the not-that-filling-at-all side, but luckily - since I was accidently there NINETY MINUTES EARLY, I'd actually gone up past the airport and bought breakfast and coffee at a cafe so I wasn't running on empty like usual. Plus, I got to whine about how much the [industry specific redacted just in case] test method sucks to people who made agreeing noises, and that is pretty much my idea of a good time there, so. (Seriously. Hate that test. HATE. It is subjectivity masquerading as science. SOD OFF.)
Aaaaand now it is the weekend YAY except I have a bunch of stuff to do. Um, if anyone sees me on Sunday and I am not assiduously Doing Either Important Project I should be doing, pls to be kicking my ass a lot? Thanks.
ETA.
No, seriously. DIDGERIDOO? *dies more*
(Also the point where the tacky voiceover was all "in gods country", yeah, that made me twitch like whoa.)
God, seriously, they are such DORKY WEIRDOES, and that is the kind of thing I love about people! Oh my GOD. and the balloons and and and!
And Jon doing the chords while Ryan strums. BRB DYIN' AGAIN.
Oh my god, this version of pas de cheval, this is NOT the album version eeeeeeeeeeeeee-- and, oh, hi, now it's cutting to them playing it sitting on the motherfucking train tracks with, like, those dorky tourist shaker things and does Jon have MARACAS? (which reminds me, there's also a song on the album which makes me all wtfmaracas?!) and and and. my glee cannot be textually rendered! Brendon, your VOICE.
AHAHAHAAA. And Brendon and Spencer are looking at the engine (although, um, really, guys, I don't think either of you would be likely to have a snowballs idea, staged or not) while Ryan and Jon make up silly songs about the van breaking down. Somehow I am entirely unsurprised by this depiction.
SPENCER. BRENDON. CAKE. FEEDING. I. Um. Need a moment. Their SMILES. I mean- I enjoy my tin hat as much as the next girl or boy, but regardless, how could you not love the way these guys look at each other? *misses the fuck out of the members of her own tribe she doesn't get to see often enough*
(also at this point I realise ahahaha work has rotted my brain slightly because I keep noticing where the road needs maintenance. /o\)
okay, that was pretty much awesome. and i want a hi-res copy so i can take stills and make icons. yay whoever planned it out! and aHA, i thought that was Death Valley. \o/
