OMFG I AM FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW!!!!  NOT ONLY IS IT HALLOWEEN, IT'S FRANK FUCKING ANTHONY IERO'S 30TH BIRTHDAY!!!  I AM SO FUCKING IN LOVE THAT IT'S INSANE RIGHT NOW.  I've been spamming people's tumbr dashboards for like 40 minutes now, lol.  He deserves so much more than what I can give him.

30 pictures to celebrate these amazing 30 years he's been on this planet.




























































Oh yeah, baby.  It's nice to see you turning 30.

In all honesty, I can’t say that I’ve ever been more excited for
someone’s birthday in my whole life.  It’s not just because it’s his
30th, or because it happens to fall on the most awesome day of the year,
but it’s because it’s the day when the most amazing human being was
born onto this planet.

Frank Anthony Iero.  What a person, hmm?  He’s gorgeous and talented
and fights for what he believes in and is kind and funny and just
downright the best thing my eyes have ever set their sights on.  I feel
humbled that I’ve even been in his presence.  He radiates.  He’s so
perfect and special and inspires me down to my core, that sometimes I
can’t even fathom how someone like him is even allowed to live on this
deplorable planet.  He shines too bright.

Yes, I fucking realize this guy is 12 years older than me and married
with twins.  I don’t fucking care.  I love him for so much more than
some crush I’ve had on him for the best seven years of my life.  He
means so much more to me than that.  He’s the one who picks me up when
I’m down.  He’s the one whose laugh genuinely makes me laugh and whose
voice gives me chills when he speaks.  His words have an impact on me. 
The way he fights for the things he loves truly makes me think about
what I’m fighting for in my own life, what I really believe in.  What he
does speaks volumes to what kind of person he is.  He’s got everything
going for him: a good life, with a career that he’s always dreamed of
doing.  When everything gets rough, he doesn’t give up.  He doesn’t tell
you that you’re dreams are unattainable, but says to fuck everyone who
tells you that you can’t, and go for what you want anyway.  He may not
know what an impact he’s had in my heart, but trust me, he’s done more
for me than I’m even going to admit.  And I have no shame that I sound
like an obsessed loser right now.

Frankie fucking Iero is my hero.  He has been since the moment I saw
him in that damn I’m Not Okay music video and captured my heart for
eternity.  He had been since the moment I heard he was a vegetarian.  He
has been through everything else he’s done, and will continue to do in
the future.  This man in a legend.

So happy fucking 30th birthday, Frank.  Happy Halloween.  You fucking deserve more than this world can give you.  Cherish it.

And parting words from the beautiful man himself:

We are a generation told not to try
to hard. The world’s going to shit, so why break a sweat? We are
reminded daily not to trust our gut or follow our hearts, your dreams
and unattainable and unrealistic. The band almost from into this just
good enough mentality and would have never been able to forgive
ourselves. You, the fans, deserved better and us as artists deserved
better. Fear is the eternal enemy. if they can keep you scared, they
can keep you controlled. We too came face to face with this saboteur,
and found the strength to break through and carry on. We are here as a
reminder that the world is not better off without you. These are
dangerous days we live in and you, the artists, are our last defense.
Art is the weapon. Your imagination is the ammunition. Stay dirty and
stay dangerous. Create and destroy as you see fit. Embrace your
originality. The aftermath is secondary. You can and should do
anything. In conclusion friends, if you take anything away from this
record, please let it be the strength to be passionate. Love what you
so and who you truly are. Be willing to die for it. If you are true to
yourself, you can never go wrong. And remember when life gives you
lemons, MCR says start a fucking band.”
-Frank Iero

Yeah, yeah.  It’s a long quote.  Get over it.

XØ, the monster you made.
