Mmm, tkp. Spandex. Grease. Office Space. Being mentioned twice in a tkp post.

This is a good day.

Bahahahahaha!

Yeeeeeeah, did you get the memo about the cover sheets for the TPS reports?

Did you know that TKP is the abbreviation for the Communist Party of Turkey? It's so great being me.

my_daroga February 22 2006, 14:59:02 UTC

No, I did not know that. Actually, I have no idea what your name means anyway.

Oh, god. 13 Going On 30. I love that movie so much. So cute and funny and Jennifer Garner just goes for it all, no holding back, THRILLER BABY THRILLER. But I also love it in this wierdly fannish AU way, like, I look at it as an long AU Alias episode and JG is so good at being this wholly different person in mind and body and soul. Xander shading darker into a Hyena, Angel curling his mouth in a different way to become Angelus, Willow striking a match and holding it up against the relaxed evil of her gaze. I love, love, love that stuff. People transforming into someone else in front of my eyes. The anti-Sydney. YES.

Russell Crowe, passing a pack a cigarettes along the table: Care for a coffin nail, love?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. God bless.

There was a time when I was going to write 13 Going On 30 fanfic. Even jotted down notes for a scene. And I have written ALIAS fanfic, so I smell cross-something, and not hot-cross-buns, honey. Wouldn't it be cool to do a kid-Syd in her 30 yr old body, still thinking her mommy is dead and her daddy works for the airport? Or even just Syd meets anti-Syd in some bizarro land where Willow and Xander are still together. Or possibly, Syd lives in a pink dream house while Jenna Rink turns super spy. OMG, the possibilities. If I didn't already have a bizarre hankering for "24"/ALIAS cross-overs I'd think I was nuts.

Anyway, what? Oh yeah, transformation. I once saw this Shakespearean company do "Macbeth" with a total of five people--it was so fucking fantabulous how good these actors were, how they could make themselves into each character with such a subtle shift. This one chick didn't even shift, she just--her eyes looked different, and everything was different, and it was like she hadn't moved, but you could tell she was a ( ... )

Omg, so cool; you'd've loved it.

Yes, yes I would have. Except that I'll never be able to see it. I will die knowing that I've missed something great. Thanks.

THAT WOULD BE THE COOLEST! I also love the idea of Sydney and Jenna trading places. God, I love Jennifer Garner when she plays baffled. And Jenna's already proven to be quick on her feet. Kind of. Just the thought of her waking up in some dank, subterranean jail makes me squee with glee. Weiss is there, too, (I only saw the first couple of seasons of Alias), his dress-shirt gone greyish-yellow under his arms and along his collar, his hair flat against his head in the humidity. He'd look at Jenna, brows knitting together ( ... )

Yeah, actually, you're life is pretty much just pointless now. Sucks to be you!!!

Great, now you're going to make me work for it. Let's see...found the company, it's called "Actors From The London Stage", and they tour the USA. This spring they're doing Merchant of Venice, and the schedule is here. Since they perform at universities, the admittance cost is low; at mine it was only $5 for students and $7 for non students. But if they're not playing anywhere near you, it's kind of a bummer. The Macbeth I saw was worth several hours drive, but the Othello I saw done by them was not. They always do the only five actors thing, with very minimal props/set, but I guess it depends on who the actors happen to be and how they choose to interpret ( ... )

lol! SUBTLETY, THEY NAME IS ALONEINTHETOWN!!!

It's with my beta, seriously.

I love your icon to death, and not just because Bjork rocks my socks right off.

Yeah, Bjork definitely equals coolness points.

"Best Souvenir" is named after "I Miss You" from the album Post. It's not the best title ever, but I was at a complete loss when I started posting, and so I started thinking of song lyrics (last resort) and came up with

"I miss you
But I haven't met you yet."

I was thinking about Buffy not having met Angel, what her life would be like. How a piece of her would've been missing all that time, and she wouldn't even have known it until she met him.

Ooh, yay for stupid love of 13 Going on 30. Of course, my love for dumb chick flicks is far greater than just that one movie, but that one's pretty high up on the list. And I love Damn it feels good to be a gangster too, but I make a point just to groove and not pay much attention to the lyrics.

I'm not so fond of pizza grease (I blot my pizza with napkins) or Russel Crowe, but I won't hold them against you. ;)

lettered February 22 2006, 05:23:42 UTC

I actually don't ususally like dumb chick flicks. The other chick flick I really really like is Sabrina, the '95 one with Harrison Ford, but that one's not really "dumb" imo. But a lot of those Notting Hill type movies I just can't really get into.

Yeah, pizza grease. Is Papa John's a nationwide chain? Anyway, they give you a separate tub of grease to dip your pizza into. I love that to death. Dip every single bite, baby. And I think Russel Crowe is the hottest star out there. Yeah, even over DB etc. I just hate his RL attitude. Then again, I rarely pay attn to actors' lives, so it goes over my head and I pretend he's that guy from LA Confidential or Gladiator.

What's with you and, like, real men? The kind that are big and... manly?

Re: ;) lettered February 22 2006, 20:25:14 UTC

LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!

Well, I love Connor because he's womanly, does that redeem me?

But seriously, I have a type. For instance, Hugh Jackman. I only think he's hot when he's being the Wolverine. Elsewise he's way too pretty. Sometimes I fear there's something primal in me that wants to get dragged around by the hair.
