Honorable Mention.
I am the clown.
Because you asked me to
and I am colorful enough, so
I quickly make the change.
It’s an easy switch in contrast.
Then, you are off and running.
Up and down the row
I am chasing you and I am out of breath.
You are elusive, but you see
I am the clown.
And I will use a trick to catch you.
I must catch you, because I have to tell you
I am not a fool. But, I have failed.
The pulsing lights drawing on
Death and destruction flash above
And beyond you. The images are mostly grave
Punched in and out in perfect time.
They were too many and too long, but
I had to remain until the end.
I knew they would tell the story.
Then, the images stop.
I achieve execution in a flash of bright white
Then perception returns to me, the clown,
Looking at you down the row.
I can’t move but to say the end.
But, I forgot the most important part.
Then, you are gone.
For a moment, I am frantic to find you.
But, I also don’t want to lose my character.
It is of every color and
Can give me up a reckless fool.
While I pretend to know the rest,
I search for my friend.
His name is random, and
He was sitting next to me.
Before you came along…
And as I am just about to take my leave
You appear again, but now
You are the clown.
And you want to tell me that
I am just a fool.
p.s. strung out on pointless prevarication and cardboard collusion.
(...fucking nightmare)

Maybe it did not begin as a marketing ploy, but ended up feeling like one.
It seems he really doesnt know what he wants,i mean come on ...first hes engaged to Eliza,dumps her and gets married backstage to lynz.I think it was way to quick.
I just think they could have done a lot more in their position as a famous band.
Those few shout outs at concerts...
Very meek, if you ask me.

I hope you are right. I want to believe that what they stood for in the beginning was real. But the way it was just thrown aside makes me think it was all a lie.
Maybe it did not begin as a marketing ploy, but ended up feeling like one.
Personally, I'm able to believe this more than anything.
I do believe there was a positive message, and I do believe that it was capable of doing a lot of great things.
I don't believe Warner/Reprise came to them and said, "Look, here's what we need you to do. We need you to tell everybody you're good people, and you don't want your fans to commit suicide, and if they feel like fuck-ups, it's okay, that you guys feel like that, too." I know that's very, very general, but you get my point.
There is such a thing as too much of a good thing, and maybe that's what it ended up being.
But, I don't think it was totally a marketing strategy, no.
Yes it was meek compared what others have done. But I still think it is something or it was.
Maybe it did not begin as a marketing ploy, but ended up feeling like one.
i think there is truth in that anon.
i think there was always so much more than just a rock band with MCR but i do think gerard has grown jaded with it all. to be honest i don't blame him! i grow jaded with my life. repetition is boring! so i do see how gerard could have got just fucking worn down!! i think he is worn down. it happens to all bands that ever had a message. they get worn down because people want so much from them because they have bothered to mean something more!
JU must be pissed that so many MCR fans are going to their shows to see her
I do believe there was a positive message, and I do believe that it was capable of doing a lot of great things.
Me to mustard, but do you think that maybe, with the band MSI,that they felt the positive messages was to uncool and wanted to be more (badass) like msi?
My Chemical Romance is as polarizing and uncompromising as a modern band can be. But no critic can question their desire to use their fame to perform good works. The band granted its first wish for the Make-A-Wish Foundation® in 2005. In just a few years, My Chemical Romance has welcomed eight teens with life-threatening medical conditions for amazing wishes, earning the band recognition in the Foundation’s Celebrity Hall of Fame.
Wish kids from around the nation have seen the gracious side of My Chemical Romance – they’ve enjoyed hours backstage playing video games, hung out on the band’s tour bus and enjoyed seats that aren’t for sale: backstage and even with the sound crew. Some have gone home with autographed guitars, while others have been able to try on the band’s stage outfits. Singer Gerard Way also makes a habit of dedicating tunes to wish kids and directing the lighting crew to putting the spotlight on them during shows.
In 2007, the Make-A-Wish Foundation honored My Chemical Romance with a Chris Greicius Celebrity Award for doing so much to grant seriously ill kids’ heartfelt wishes. The band always makes sure wish kids have the best seats in the house – even when that means sitting on stage!
Each wish to meet My Chemical Romance has sent a courageous kid home with amazing memories, one-of-a-kind souvenirs and the reassurance that there are people who truly care.
Anonymous,
I don't have any idea. I don't know why the message was left behind, and I don't imagine I'll ever know. I guess at this point, it is what it is.
But again, what positive message and why should Gerard be worn out? What did he do?
Oh yes, those hundreds of charity concerts they gave and all the other charity work. It just got too much!
Sorry, that I'm being so sarcastic but I don't believe anything anymore.
Except that it was a very clever marketing strategy.
Gerard should have married Eliza, we all know she wouldn't have had a problem being called Mrs Way
Wow. She's doing this for women and little girls? She's actually saying that "Five Year Old Panty Shot" and the rest of their derogatory and hateful lyrics were for the benefit of women and little girls?
It's the lack of logic that kills me the most.
Re: MCR's "message": Well, I bought it like a total sucker. However, look at Skeleton Crew. They do a huge amount of actual work for good causes. Ans as Frank is a part of MCR, I have to imagine that the "message" meant something to him, and likely still does mean something. MCR isn't just Gerard, although it's seemed like that since around July. (Well, the Gerard and Lindsey show, anyway.) There are other guys in the band, and perhaps with them it wasn't just lip service. How could it be? S//C are activists, they put their money where their mouth is.
MSI, doing this "for women and little girls?" WTF is this, the "Degradation For Feminism" cause that I somehow missed out on? That's the sound of one person's mouth writing checks that her ass can't cash, that's for damn sure.
MCR designed a shirt for this.
H&M and Designers Against AIDS (DAA) are joining forces in the battle against AIDS and are launching a collection for guys and girls together with Rihanna, Timbaland and other well-known designers, musicians and artists. The aim is to spread awareness about HIV/AIDS, which affects many young people all over the world. The collection “Fashion Against AIDS” will be available in H&M’s Divided departments from February 2008.
The artists participate free of charge and when you buy a Fashion Against AIDS item, 25% of the sales price is donated to HIV/AIDS prevention projects around the world. This will be coordinated by Designers Against AIDS and YouthAIDS®.
I wouldn't be surprised if JU has been at her about this. The women has a problem with thinking for herself and likes attention.
If you ask me msi isn't even really a badass band. There are far more badass bands out there. I think GW is just sick of looking like the sweet nice boy and this was his way of killing off that image. Without having to do to much work
Anyways, hey everyone! Hey Verita, it's good to see you around, lady. ^_^
I just came back from picking up another starling. This one is a beastly, angry little fledgling of a one, with a bum leg. I like him very much, he's adoreeeeble. I got him from my wonderful best friend Kim at another hospital.
Today was awesome because I spent all morning on the phone with another dancer out here who wants to sort of merge our two groups. Not artistically but more for business. Her group is wildly successful and she makes, well, a lot of money. She knows me very well, we've studied with a lot of the same people and have many of the same friends. She also has permission to teach Hula. It was funny, she asked me, "Now, I know you don't do the coconut bra, wiggle wiggle thing..." and I said, "You're damn right I don't," and she was like, "Uh huh, that's the Jules I know." ^_^ She's this adorable little Filipino lady with incredibly long hair. She's been dancing professionally for about twelve years.
Anyway it's a tremendous opportunity and I've already got two shows!
Then I also got a long-awaited phone call from a very distant (geographically) very close (emotionally) best friend of mine. She's had some health worries, but she sounded awesome and upbeat in the message she left.
Lately I feel like I'm surrounded by the most honestly BEST friends I've ever had. ^_^
Anon I think the whole band may have been at her. I can see how her new found fame might not sit well with the other members of msi.
I mean she is now the only talented person in that band.
oh yeah (laughs)
People, I'm sorry but I have to go!
I have to get up really early tomorrow.
Nighty night!
PS: Very interesting to read, charity anon! Thank you!
Hello kapu
Additionally, after some time away from the music and away from discussions about the band, I do think it's still possible to earn back the trust (I'm not sure that's the best word though) and appreciation of the message.
I do think we saw a large turnaround this past tour in the things said onstage, the way the band was presented. I saw that, not sure about anyone else, but I did. And above that, I appreciate, as a fan, being given the chance to actually say that again.
Like I said before, I don't think it will be the same as before, with the message, I mean, but I think it's something to strive for. I don't think it should be one of those "Fuck it" type things.
anon 4.34pm thanks for the info. i know they have had things to do with make a wish foundation
But again, what positive message and why should Gerard be worn out? What did he do?
siobhan i get you its ok. i just think he is mentally exhausted with everything at the moment.
kapunua great points as ever.
Hey, Kapunua! That's so exciting for you!
Hey FASC, hey MJ and Splash! It is exciting. I definitely feel like something really good is going to come of this.
i just think he is mentally exhausted with everything at the moment.
Agreed. I think he became side-tracked. Fame is a very hard thing to adjust to. Unless you experience it, it would be very hard to say how you would react.
Goodnight Siobhan
seeya siobhan!

yep i agree with you mustard.
ok guys i am outa here for the night!!
have a lovely night.
you too mayo and SS whatever you might be doing.
love to you all!
i think MSI and the PR tour had a huge influence on Gerard. that's when his doucheness really started.
Linkin Park said that this years PR tour will have more "serious" acts on it. they even felt the circus like atmosphere that MSI and MCR created. it was embarrassing
I am glad you can find a positive to this crap Kapu.
The women behaves more like a teenager who never emotionally grew up
Goodnight FASC
Hi everyone!
Kapunua,
Scorpios are taking over the world, I tell ya. We are! I'm so happy for you!
Okay, time to go home! YAY!
Oh, and in my opinion, Linkin Park didn't want to feel upstaged again this year.
Muwahaha.
That's just my opinion though. I like Linkin Park, I just don't love them.
Okay, gotta go!
See you guys in a bit!
Hey Princess!
True story: I only know about a half a song by Linkin Park. O_o
Hello S&V
Anon but it was still LP that decided who would be on that tour. And with msi I would hope that they had at least seen one of their shows. I mean they are known for doing things that are kind of out there. So LP brought it on themselves.
So I find what they are saying now to be a bit low. I was happy to know that they weren't happy with what happened.
True story: i don't know any TBS songs
What I'm about to say is being said out of ignorance.
In defense of Linkin Park's decision to have both MCR and MSI on the bill, I personally don't know how Chester or Mike, or whoever did the choosing for the lineup, could have known the outcome of PR.
I find MCR a serious, musically driven band, but that's just my opinion. MSI is a musical catastropy. I have no respect for them and I don't take them seriously, and I never will.
Also, MCR is a huge band with a huge fanbase. I can't speak for anyone but myself, but I wouldn't have gone to PR to see Linkin Park even though they headlined the thing! Maybe there is jealousy over the not so factual fact (because I don't know for sure) that MCR produced more positive set reviews or more positive press than LP did. I don't know.
But, if they're choosing to take a more, as you say, "serious" route this year, how will they know? See what I'm saying? That doesn't make sense to me.
Do you think MSI have any credibility with peers within the industry?
Does any other band see them as their influence?
*catastrophe
Lemme just botch it all up. O_O
5:08,
No, and no.
But, I don't know for sure. They may be influencial, but not from where I sit.
I don't think MCR upstaged Linkin Park at PR at all last year. Yeah, MCR had tons of pyro (in 100 degree heat, no less) and their fans were screaming so loud you could barely hear Gerard's bad vocals. But thankfully, most of the teenies left after their set. Linkin Park came on and played their hearts out. Mike and Chester interacted with the crowd and seemed so genuinely happy to be there, unlike Gerard who didn't interact with anyone.
Besides, with Linkin Park's record sales, I doubt they're likely to feel upstaged by a band like MCR.
Still, IMO, the best act at PR was TBS. No pyro, no elaborate stage show. Just Adam and the boys having a blast onstage as only they can.
MJ,
MSI is one thing, but i don't think they expected Gerard to do the shit he did on that tour.
the Gerard/Lyn-Z sharpie mess, the over the top Frerard, and Gerard pushing Frank around. Gerard was a total ass on that tour.
LynZ was just as silly. Only people expected more from Gerard as he actually has a brain.
the Gerard/Lyn-Z sharpie mess, the over the top Frerard, and Gerard pushing Frank around. Gerard was a total ass on that tour.
Right, and I suppose my whole point with the Anonymous saying Linkin Park would be choosing more "serious" bands this year is that, how could they have known? That's what I was trying to say. :)
Gerard and LynZ are talking through head-fulls of coke and drink. You can't expect them to make sense. Gerard is NOT sober. LynZ is a coke-head. Meet MSI at a party one time....or a few times and see for yourself.
Lyn-z should just get over it. she's always going to be Mrs Gerard Way because she has no stand out talent.
why is it so hard for her to admit that she's only famous by association

5:27 if that's true, that's tragic
*sigh*
*is bored*
Anyone want to arm wrestle?
5:32 I'd rather kiss
It is tragic but they are both adults (physically) and they made their decision. Gerard choose to lie about being sober instead of really being sober. In his mind that's all that counts, as long as people THINK he is telling the truth he must be. He is.... pathological. And LynZ is pretty much what people think she is, a drugged out skank with little to no brains.
VV, I read this comment on your blog and I find it sad how true it is,
Yeah, Stafoo has been pretty dead recently and I'll tell you why. In the beginning, the fans were just trying to take the piss out of Gerard and it was funny. But for the past year and a half or so, what with the Eliza mess (are they or aren't they?), the RING, the ridiculous public break up/tantrum (I'm gonna wash that man right outta my hair - WTF?), Projekt Revolution, the sharpies and the marks of love, the one month courtship (six weeks, whatever) with Lindsey, the backstage marriage, the taking MSI on tour, the telling little girls to fuck themselves and "moan for me"... well, let's just say that Gerard has become such a joke in and of himself there's no need to make fun of him anymore.
LynZ is a puttana
The fangirls who keep making excuses for his doucheness are just as bad as the ones who refuse to even SEE the doucheness in the first place. Oh we know he is wrong, but we feel sorry for him! He is sooo troubled and sensitive! That is just as bad if not worse than the teenies who refuse to even see it.
According to a review I read before the sharpie shit. MCR was upstaging LP.
Yes Mrs. GW should know that this is what was going to happen. It happen to all of tom Cruise's wives. And to Jade pinkett smith and they were know before they got with their husbands.
Mib I think that is just LP's way of trying to hurt MCR. I am sure some LP fans didn't like the fact that MCR and the other "emo" bands were on the line up. I also think a lot of people were shocked that LP would give msi a spot.
*kisses Anon @ 5:34*
Depends on the review you read, MJ, and also which show you went to.
I could link you to dozens of reviews that go on about how "amazing" MSI is in concert. I've also read a bunch of 5 star reviews of their new CD If, but I somehow doubt it's going to be giving Minutes to Midnight any competition in the record sales department, though.
thank you 5:32
nutella and fluff
nutella and fluff

Well everyone has different taste. And some people have no taste at all.
brb
goodmorning I don't have a lot of time as I woke up late
so Hi MJ K smoke mustard fasc elena and I saw J before I think and all the anons.
as for teh Mrs G W when I was married I actually asked not to be introduced as Mrs My husband, but as Mr and Mrs blah and Blah if you get what I mean , It would annoy me greatly if that was what I was known as BUT he and he encouraged it, the sharpie messages and the way GW always refers to her as my wife, really doesn't give her a standing on her own. Plus add to that the fact his band is far better known and had a band of ready to accept teeny fans who go to their concerts to see GW mate than to enjoy the music and the hype they temselves have created and that's what you get.
You make your bed,you've gotta lie in it.
*he and she
is that a freudian slip or what!
I've been exposed to anons too long
For ergo.
Well, she is kind of manly.
this blog needs more kissing...and necks massages
Again, in my opinion, MCR totally upstaged LP on that tour. Almost every review I read stated over and over how MCR stole the show.
But again, I'm not a huge LP fan. I just don't get the whole "it's going to be more serious this time around". WTF? Why?
I have to agree that TBS played their asses off. That's what made me fall in love with that band.
MCR is just a great live band though. End of story.
And to be fair, I didn't even get to see LP! Hahaha! It was lightening and shit and they wanted the people on the lawn to go to their cars and ummm, that wasn't about to happen. So it was over an hour after MCR left the stage that LP decided to come on and play.
So we left. I felt kind of bad for having to leave but really in truly, I wasn't that sad about it.
So what's my effin' point? I have no idea.
Ahhhhh, anyhoo....
So what else is up in here? ^_^
*gives 6:04 a neck massage*
*backs away from Mayo's front door*
Sorry! Didn't mean to interrupt!
I'll leave you guys to it!
O_O
what about a stank ass foot massage
but it depends on what magazines you read, the more hard rock/meat mags tended to ignore MCR and focus more on LP and other bands. Journalists will cater to their readership.
But the sharpieing wasn't really respectful to the other performers.
lol oh I'm on a roll tonight!
hard rock/METAL mags
anon could I get one of those neck massages, I can give a good one back too if you like
hello ep and S&V
What's a stank ass foot massage? A foot rubbing the ass?
I agree, Ergo, there's just no logic to it. They spent half a year broadcasting their relationship, Gerard toook them out on tour with MCR and now they're bitching because she's associated with MCR? They set this entire thing up themselves. This whole protestation of "more than Mrs." rings really, really false.
Yes, like I said before, it all depends on which reviews you read and what city you're in. People who are fans of MCR are more likely to be exposed to journalists (online sites, magazines, whatever) that cater to their musical tastes. Also, the demographic changes depending on the city you're in. At the PR I went to, there were a lot of guys heckling MCR and telling them to get off the stage so they could see Linkin Park.
I went for TBS, but I came away with a whole new respect for LP. They put on an awesome show.
What's with the pictures of Eliza crying? I don't get it?
they haven't even been married for a year, and Lyn-Z is already starting the "i'm not getting the credit i deserve because of you" shit.
their marriage is doomed
ok I'm off to school gym and titoring take care all back later
oh and as for meat mags if Beef Producers Digest ever does and MCR article I'll let you know lol ;)
I would hope ms cuts is crying because she lost someone she really cared about. But I doubt that is why.
As for GW I hope the next person he dates stays in the back ground.
Hey you guys, Check this out.
Astronomers have found some matter that had been missing in deep space and say it is strung along web-like filaments that form the backbone of the universe....
However, observations of a quasar -- a bright object far off in space -- show its light is diffused much as a lighthouse can reflect on a thin fog that was invisible in the dark.
"It is kind of like a spider web. The gravity of the spider web is what produced what we see," Shull said in a telephone interview.
How awesome is that?
MJ,
why don't you think Eliza cared for Gerard
Kapunua, that's incredible.
Some things just cannot be explained, they just exist. And their mystery is as beautiful as it is perplexing.
what pic of eliza crying?
That is so awesome, K. OMG.
Stuff like that just amazes me.
anon 6:39
the pic is on her buzznet and myspace pages
she looks really sad
Yes, what Anon @ 6:38 said.
O_O
I swear the words "amazes/amazed/amazing" are forever ruined for me yet I can't think of any other freakin' words.
GRRRRR!
Isn't it wonderful? Sometimes I care very much for explanations because they fill my brain, and because I'm a huge fan of logic. But then other times, I prefer the mystery.
There is a particle that is (wrongly, I suspect,)* called "the god particle) and once the new CERN particle collider is running (soon) physicists believe they are sure to find it, to pin it down.
But even when they find it and tackle it and ask its name and make it dance, they're still going to be none the wiser. That's the thing about physics when you get down to the quantum level: the answers only chase themselves back to more questions. That's what I love about it.
*Wrongly because it acts more as a force-field than an actual "god" and because there's no proof of its sentience. So it looks like George Lucas might have had it right all along. ^_^
Doesn't that make you feel so small, but so big at the same time?
The way they describe it is pretty neat.
Oh, that was in reply to 6:38 and to the Princess. ^_^
Here is a cool article about it, and a photograph of the collider at CERN.
Incidentally we have, right here on LI, a Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider of our own. It's nothing at all like CERN's of course. But Brookhaven National Lab is well known for their ways of messing with the universe and realities. They're very controversial because of it. There are mad rumors that the beginning of the end of the world will be at Brookhaven, because they do some insane things there.
I danced a show there once, and in the audience was the man who designed Brookhaven's RHIC. I just about died.
Interesting about the matter. But they need to do a nova on it.
Anon I just think that the way she used his fame for herself show that she didn't think much about him or his feelings. It didn't seem like being with him was enough.
Hi ALL
I love looking at all the pictures of that stuff.
It makes me do this -> O_O
Hi Sdock! Whatcha doin'?
hello SD
Hi Solly!
Princess, I could look at photographs like that all day. Even better than those are the Hubble ones. Again, it's more overwhelming than anything I can fit into my imagination. My brain just isn't that big, you know?
Well, I was trying to take a nap on my couch but I couldn't get comfortable, so...
I just said "fuck it"!
And here I am.
*waves TO Fimble*
I see you.
Whoa, that thing is massive and way too big a concept for me to wrap my non-scientific brain around.
But, it does make you think. Like, I've always thought of it our existence this way.
We're on Earth. Earth is in a solar system which is part of the Universe. But, where the hell is the Universe? Like, where does it end and begin, and is it a part of something?
Niiiice, Solly.
K,
I know! Me, too. I love looking at that stuff. Then I walk away kind of scared and creeped out but loving it! Kind of like the ocean, ya know?
You really don't know what all is out there. O_O
I can remember being little and hearing stories of 'black holes' and it scaring the living shit out of me.
I just knew that earth was going to be sucked in one like at any second.
with a one-loop-diagram and
always more than zero value
the god particle is
the answer to no question yet
under a cracked glass ceiling
an observer to beyond reality
whether in the cup of the palm of the sky
or under the heel of the rest of the world
I could crown myself queen of the event horizon
as I move my hand through layers of
broad brush interpretation worlds
(twelve of them, I think) and
paradox and waveforms that refuse
to collapse unless traced back to their
(sentient?) interaction with the
consciousness of the observer
in the end all that is spun is the truth
in the end the spider never lies
Hey, Sdock!
That's how it makes me feel. ^_^
Oooo, yeah! Like the ocean! That's a good, smaller analogy. :)
Hi Mustard
God, the ocean scares the shit out of me, too.
What doesn't scare the shit out of me? Damn. O_O
S&v you do know that at the center of our galaxy is a super massive black hole. It's not active right now.
Hey, Sdock, Kapunua, Smoke, Mustard, Ergo, Anon.
How is everyone?
Here's an article about LI's "Big Bang Machine". (Sounds dirty when they put it that way.
I'm standing in a Battlestar-scale room at Brookhaven National Laboratory in Upton, New York, where Hallman and about 1,200 other physicists labor away as latter-day demiurges. Here in the middle of Long Island, they are re-creating the opening microseconds of the universe's existence, the time when the first particles of matter—of everything—appeared.
Oh my gosh. O_O
What will activate it?
Muse?
Bahahaha! You can laugh at my corny jokes, I know you can.
;)
Hello star
Shut up, Martha. STFU.
^_~
Seriously, I'm gonna need a valium now.
Holy shit, you're kidding?
Better not tinker around with that little red button, eh!?
Gonna go scope it out.
Hey Star, Jules, Smoke, Sdock, MJ, Anons, Mayo, SS, Mayo's pet Turtle.
Heya!
Rahaha, Mustard, it was very funny!
Now I must listen to it!
Hi, by the way! I missed you and MJ!
Hey Star!
Mustard,
I was thinking the same thing about Muse. :)
Hey Star!
Hey Splash.
We're on Earth. Earth is in a solar system which is part of the Universe. But, where the hell is the Universe? Like, where does it end and begin, and is it a part of something?
You sound like you're leaning towards what is called "Null Physics." That goes like this:
Null Physics is derived from the concept that our entire universe is the internal structure of nothingness. In other words, physical reality is an intricate, four-dimensional geometric equation that adds to zero because it exists within zero. There is no beginning or end to our universe because there is no beginning or end to nothingness. Reality is composed of space and curvatures of space (energy), both of which are composed of geometric points, which are the physical representation of nothingness. In short, there is no difference between a universe whose sum is zero and a universe that exists as a formulation of zero.
Now how mindblowing is that?!
Lol MIB. I think they said if it comes in contact with another super massive black hole.
I get Valium and Vicodin confused.
Just sayin....
And Mustard, I thought Muse as well.
Just sayin...
But then again, maybe that was your thought in my head or my thought in your head.
What?
Yeah, ignore me. I speak nonsense.
I think because I don't have a scientific brain, a lot of stuff freaks me out. Like if I start thinking about how the universe started, I feel anxious. That's why I read poems, and let the scientists sort everything out.
Internal Structure of Nothingness
Sounds like a cool name for a song or an album....
Hmmm. How about that?
So, basically, we're in a big cloud of nothing?
How is that even possible? It doesn't begin, and it doesn't end, but it's there.
*computer voice*
Cannot compute.
Glad you guys liked that one! I'll be here all night!
Sdock,
Your nonsense is funny and makes me LOL.
Ha. Ha. Ha. ^_~
Me, too, Star. I can't think about it for too damn long or as I said earlier, I'll need a valium.
O_o
I do too, Star, because I have a love/hate relationship with Not Knowing.
This is why I write poems about science. That and because I'm wordy, but not very mathy. ;)
For anyone who might not know this (though I can't imagine anyone not realizing it by now) I'm "weaver girl" and always have been. ^_^
That's why I read poems, and let the scientists sort everything out.
I totally hear you. I like to think about it because it forces me to use the opposite side of by head, but I get frustrated because I can't fathom things that are obviously unfathomable. Like you said, it makes me anxious.
Martha?
I didn't really mean for you to STFU. ^_~
Sdock,
I forgot to tell you, but, uh, we share a brain.
Scary, I know. O_O
That's how I feel, Splash. It's like trying to picture the Calabi-Yau space, which is twelve dimensions. Now how the motherloving hell am I supposed to imagine twelve dimensions, when I have a hard time keeping in decent touch with the freaking fourth already? O_o
That's why I wish to believe in souls, or some kind of sentience after life. Because since that stuff can't fit into mortal brains, I'm hoping that once I'm out of this limited consciousness (although not anytime soon, thanks very much!) whatever is left over of me will be able to understand it.
6:38, you seemed nice, are you still about?
You know what freaks me out the most?
Sound
If I sit around and think about voices/music being recorded, and the even the concept of the telephone, I can easily wig out.
Lol I was looking up super massive black holes. Did you know that some galaxies have two. I knew that two galaxies could combine and have a really huge one but I didn't know one could have two.

TOTALLY AGREE!
Oh, don't get me started about all the stuff that freaks me out.
Space
Water
Suffocating
Spiders
*passes out from thinking about all this scary shit*
O_O
Star, me too! That's crazy.
Frequencies intimidate me, just sayin'. But, it's so cool to just sit and watch someone lay down a track or a line of music or something and watch them manipulate it, stretch it, move it, and all kinds of crazy stuff.
And to think all we hear is a bunch of frequencies moving in time with one another. Crazy.
*runs up to the glass, sees Fimble Star, and sticks tongue out and leaves a wet spot on the window*
I see YOU!
I'm off for my bath.
That's right MJ. In fact in the star cluster Abell 400, two supermassive black holes are moving closer together, and pretty soon, BAM!*
*That's putting it mildly, I suspect.
"I think it sends such a bad message to girls because it wipes out all the hard work that I did. "
????????????????????
Is she kidding???
Ooooh, and even though it was a stupid movie did you guys see White Noise?
Gah! That is some freaky shit. Now I listen for voices when I hear static.
I would seriously die if someone said, "Smooookkeee....help me!!!"
Hi RW! What did you buy me today?
Smoke,
The things you listed are really scary, though.
Explain my inexplicable horror at seeing a blimp.
A freakin blimp.
If I am driving and I see it, I almost have to pull over.
It has no logical explanation, and that is what bothers me the most.
MJ, a Carownookie?
A cake with a brownie inside and a cookie layer.
-A
Super-supermassive black hole.
With that, I'm gonna take my doggies out for a bit. See you guys in a few!
A blimp?
God, I'd never get in one. I mean, seeing the Hindenburgh or watching them light one up on Mythbusters...hell no.
Just hell no.
Hello RW.
Kapu I would love to see that happen.
I am so scared of spiders. Like deathly afraid. I know I've said this a billion times but OMG.
I do not like them at all.
This morning I thought I saw something crawling out of the corner of my eye and it was just the reflections of the trees on my metal cd case.
O_O
I jerked the wheel so hard, I swear, I almost wrecked.
I need therapy.
I can honestly say I don't have an irrational fear of much.
I am claustrophobic, but not beyond belief. I just don't enjoy being in confined spaces with other humans. :/
And bugs creep me out a little. 'Specially the buzzing sounds most all of them produce.
Wasps are forever on my shit list.
36", plasma screen size spiders (I will ♥ that interview forever) = DNW, but I'm not arachnophobic.
See, Star? You aren't alone. :)

I'm like that with things that BUZZ. Bees, wasps, hornets, flies, eeeyeh!!
I tend to scream and take off running in the opposite direction, so when it happens in a public place, it becomes as funny as you think it is :P
-A
"We now know that they are coupled, but more like the mating of black widow spiders. One of the black holes invariably will eat the other."
Oh, nice. Two fuckin' fears in one.
*passes out again*
I don't like blimps or spiders either. I hate the sound a blimp makes. I always think it is coming after me.
Smoke,
My husband is the same way.
Hello Amy.
Mib I think most people would run if they saw a 36", plasma screen size spiders. I think I would have to leave the planet.
Oh! And frogs. I don't like frogs.
My husband once chased me through the house with one and I locked myself in the bathroom. Well, he just slip the meffin' frog under the door.
>.<
I am traumatized.
MJ:
Run away? Hell, I'd be running so fast you wouldn't think I was even moving. I'd just, like, teleport to a safer location I'd be so fast.
;)
Smoke:
I'm not too keen on frogs either. Their croaking wigs me out.
Hi, S&V :D I gotchoo two M.A.C. nail polishes in sparkly shades, a fauncy eyeliner silvery eyeliner sharpener, and two Lush bubble baff bars wot smell right some good*.
*nice
OM NOM NOM?
-A
I hate rats.
Rats, mice...what the fuck ever.
DO NOT WANT!
Hi, MJ :D
Hi Solly, K, Star, Mustard, A... did I miss anyone?
I love spiders, and frogs, and bugs. Again, not wasps or yellowjackets or ticks. I kill those indiscriminately. Spiders though, and big fat fuzzy bumblebees, and junebugs, dragonflies and all that other kind of junk, I love those. ^_^
EEEEEEEEK! I ♥ you, RW! ^_^
Mustard,
It's their sticky, slimey little feet.
*shivers*
I like guinea pigs.
Day iz so cute.
And I lov mice and rats! Rats have cool sticky tails.
Okay, I'm going to make some tea.
Yes, Solly hates rats. Muwahaha.
I ♥ dragonflies, butterflies, lightening bugs, lizards and ladybugs.
And those rolie-polie bugs.
However the hell you spell it.
Hi Everyone!
No, rats scare the shit out of me to the point of almost passing out dying. I don't like them dead or alive. Don't care. DO NOT WANT.
Yeah and not real fond of frogs.
AI ANONS!
Are you about the house? We must crack on American Idol tonight!!
Come out come out wherever you lurk!
Ooooo, I forgot American Idol was on tonight!
My prediction:
David Cook will win.
I ♥ all things except for rats and kinda sorta frogs.
I like froggies.
And cats.
I LOOOOOOOOOOVE CATS. :)
Meow.
My predictions are this:
We will laugh our asses off.
They will sing some lame songs.
One of the Davids will win.
And I won't buy either one of their records.
Who wants to place bets???
Anyone?
My husband, he's so sweet, tortured me with a snake once. He told me he had me a present, right? So I got all excite.
*Gerard voice*
What is it? What is it?
He walked in the house carrying a three foot indigo snake.
I told him to never-ever-ever bring me another meffin' surprise.
>_<
Cats have a special place in my heart because they kill rats! Niiiiiiice. But then, they just leave them there after they are done torturing and playing with it. That part sucks.
My skin is crawling as I type this.....
*twitches*
LOL, Sdock. You win!
Cats are funny, as in odd. So temperamental, I swear.
I am less afraid of rats than I am of squirrels.
I like frogs. It rains frogs somewhere in the South, but I can't remember where.
I heard on the news today that it's almost time for the cicadas to come out. This apparently happens every 17 years.
Solly,
I think David will win.
Definitely.
That's just a wild guess though.
SMOKE?!
Guess what?!
I gotchu a suuuuuurpriiiiise!
;)
Hi RW! How are you?
Smoke, that's a pretty crazy surprise. Yikes!
Mustard,
I come out swinging and kicking and biting and scratching and pulling hair and throwing hairbrushes.
NO LIE.:)
Purrrrr
*licks paw*
*wipes ear with paw*
Purrrrr
What's a cicada?
I heard on the news today that it's almost time for the cicadas to come out.
Are they going to march down the streets in leather and feather boas?
Sorry, couldn't resist ;)
Underneath
Alanis
Look at us in this kitchen
Look at us rallying all our defenses
Look at us waging war in our bedroom
Look at us jumping ship in our dialogues
There is no difference
In what we're doing in here
That doesn't show up as big as it does out there
So why spend all our time undressing our bandages
When we've the ultimate key to the cause
right here all underneath.
Look at us form our cliques in our sandbox
Look at us being cruel kids with both our hearts blocked
Look at us turn away from all the rough spots
Look at dictatorship on my own block
There is no difference
In what we're doing in here
That doesn't show up as big as it does out there
So why spend all our time undressing our bandages
When we've the ultimate key to the cause
right here all underneath.
How I've spun my wheels
With carts before my horse
And shine on the outside springs from gloom
Spotlight on these seeds of simpler reasons
And score bourne into corn, stretching my limit
There is no difference
In what we're doing in here
That doesn't show up as big as it does out there
So why spend all our time undressing our bandages
When we've the ultimate key to the cause
right here all underneath.
I heard it. Liked it.
Hi, Star :D
How's things?
SS Phantom Kitty!
I was so worried about you! Now go attack Mustard.
Gnaw on her other thumb. Hahaha.
According to Google Image, it is this.
*heebie jeebies*
Better stay the eff away from my thumb, SS Phantom Kitty!
Good Golly Marbles!
So it's like a locust or something.
Those things are creepy.
Solly,
I like that. :)
Sdock:
A cicada is an insect of the order Homoptera, suborder Auchenorrhyncha, in the superfamily Cicadoidea, with large eyes wide apart on the head and usually transparent, well-veined wings. There are about 2,500 species of cicada around the globe, and many remain unclassified. Cicadas live in temperate to tropical climates where they are among the most widely recognized of all insects, mainly due to their large size and remarkable acoustic talents. Cicadas are sometimes colloquially called "locusts",[1] although they are unrelated to true locusts, which are a kind of grasshopper. They are also known as "jar flies". Cicadas are related to leafhoppers and spittlebugs. In parts of the southern Appalachian Mountains in the United States they are known as "dry flies" because of the dry shell they leave behind.
Cicadas do not bite or sting, are benign to humans, and are not considered a pest. Many people around the world regularly eat cicadas: the female is prized as it is meatier. Cicadas have been (or are still) eaten in Ancient Greece, China, Malaysia, Burma, Latin America and the Congo.
Cicadas are really cool singing bugs. We get them out here too. They're gorgeous, but in small doses, thanks. ^_^
ME!
Oh, snap. That pic looks nothing like what I though cicadas were. Ne'mind. O_O
OMGWIN
Yeah, you have to sing it all Alanisy though to get the full impact.
TIME FOR AI!
AI Anons, WHERE ARE YOU?
Damn. >_<
Don't panic. SS Phantom Kitty can destroy all of the cicadas.
Jules you suck!
TIME FOR AI!
These are the cicadas that we get out here. They're really cool.
Oh, just heard today that Alanis Morissette is planning to release another album. Just throwin' that out there.
Sweet! SS Phantom Kitty RUUUUULES!!!!!!
And I like the word 'spittlebug'.
Don't know why really.
