5 MORE things!
5 more things for the 5-things meme!
purplealert gave me:
☆ Buttery - *FINGERWIGGLES MOAR*
☆ Wedding bands - Aha, this is a joke that developed when I realized there was so much subtext in the S.P.D. episode "Idol" (YEAH, I WENT THERE). I have an icon of this, but it's inactive, orz. Basically, in that episode, Sky's husband boyfriend BEST FRIEND Dru explains the meaning of the identical silver bracelets they wear- THEY'RE FRIENDSHIP BRACELETS. YA WAI. My feelings about THAT may be summed up by this macro. Now I joke that the bracelets are wedding bands on Dru's home planet.
☆ Collectibles - An easy one- I'm always collecting something. Used to be Pokemon toys, then Beast Wars Transformers, then Digimon toys, then owl statues. Now I am living my childhood fantasy and collecting Power Rangers action figures (I was always "too old" for Rangers in my ma's eyes, so I had very few MMPR toys, and the few I did have I had to give away- shame 'cause I could probably get a fortune for them now). I just wish I'd been into S.P.D. when the toys were actually in stores, because eBay has slim and usually way too-expensive pickings.
☆ Digital cameras - SHURICAM. I love taking pictures, and since I got a spiffy new digital camera for Christmas (my old 'un was on the fritz) I find any excuse to use it.
☆ Velvet swords SPIKE! SPIKE! DO YOU WANT ME TO GET MANROOT FROM THE MARKETPLACE? (... Edensphere injoke, in other words. Basically, in Edensphere, Sky/Spike and Bridge are BFF with Toki/Kanin and Skwisgaar/Alexi from Metalocalypse [no, we have no idea how it happened, either, but it's awesome shut up]. One day, Kanin found a bodice-ripper novel and was thoroughly confused by the contents, and wrote about it on his journal. Cue cracks about Spike enjoying velvet-sheathed swords. I can dig up links if anyone REALLY wants them...)
damnedfallacy gave me:
DWTS - Oh, Dancing with the Stars. My truest love next to kaosureido and S.P.D. I am fucking addicted to this show and I have NO IDEA WHY. A ballroom dancing competition doesn't exactly seem like the type of thing your standard Power Rangers/animu fangirl would like, right? And yet- IT'S AWESOME. I have been to the live tour twice and have the t-shirt. And I am actually THOROUGHLY upset that I will not be able to watch it live this season because I'll be at work when it's on! Yeah, yeah, I can prolly watch it online after the fact, but it is just not the same.
Cake - Cake is by far my favorite dessert. Especially cookie, lemon or chocolate. OM NOM NOM. My ma makes the best lemon cakes.
♥ - I am overfond of using this heart, just because I think it looks better than the less-than-three <3 heart.
Avatar - Or, Avatar: The Last Airbender. This show was, in my opinion, amazing and a real benchmark for kids' TV and American animation in general. It was beautifully-animated, the concept was great, and they did not go out of their way to sanitize violence and dumb it down for the kiddies.
Chris Violette - Mmmmph, those lips... ...where was I? Oh, yes. After Matt Austin dropped off the face of the earth for a while (with good reason; he had a baby daughter on the way, after all ♥) I started following Chris' career more closely, watched a few of his non-PR projects, and- got addicted. DX It's so striking for me to watch him after going on an S.P.D. binge, because his personality is such a stark contrast to Sky's, which shows how great an actor he is. He's funny, he's charming, he's loud, and just seems so amazing and full of life. I'd really love to meet him some day, or at least get the chance to tell him how much S.P.D. changed my life, thanks in no small part to him and Matt. One of these nights when I'm horrendously drunk I'm going to shoot him off an e-mail...
