birdsofshoreOMG OMG. It's today. I'm so excited, I keep reminding myself to BREATHE LIKE A NORMAL PERSON.
I've come to flail all over you. I've got things to share while we wait. People sent me Justin Trudeau pictures? And I fucking love them for it.
He can levitate babies (story here):
He randomly appears out of caves wearing no shirt (story here):
Then he crashed a wedding wearing only a wetsuit which was rolled down to his waist (link to original here):
FUCKKKKK. I thought he was wearing leather trousers and a little leather cap for a minute or two. I'm too old for this much excitement. In fact, his awesomeness is escalating too rapidly for me. I'm not sure what he's going to do next and it scares me.
Then, these alternative Pokemon names are better than the real ones. S N E K is my favourite, along with AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA and Gangnam Style.
Click here to see the others.
I saw Ghostbusters again and it wasn't as good as the first time. IT WAS BETTER. I honestly adore this film so much I don't know what to do with myself. I think it actually might be my perfect film ever. It's exciting without being too scary or too violent. It makes me laugh. It's not too complicated or depressing. It's about overcoming being a lonely dork, and finding true friends who LIKE you being a dork. The outfits are amazing. It's got cool weapons in, but they're not like REAL weapons so I don't feel guilty about being all OMG GUNS YES. I love every single character, more or less. PLUS HOLTZMANN IS IN IT.
Gratuitous Holtzmann picture, because I am thoughtful like that.
Also, I started writing something purely for fun and I got 1000 words down yesterday. Which made me happy.
SO, ERISED. Are you on the edge of your seat? Excited? Bored of people going on about it? Nervous? Hoping for a particular assignment? SCARED of a particular assignment? Come and tell me everything while we wait.
(and don't forget, if you didn't get in, they are looking for pinch hitters and they'll almost certainly need people so please sign up if you are interested.)

Date: 2016-08-07 02:29 pm (UTC)I hope Ghostbusters is somehow still playing in theaters when Shelly visits because I'd LOVE to see it with my gf! In fact, I can't bring myself to see it with anyone else, because I know it's going to be a whole huge feminist/drooling/maybe crying with joy experience for me and I either need to see it by myself, or with good friends who would ~get it~ (i.e. you, Capi, other fandom friends who do not live here), or with my awesome gf, and right now the only option of those I have is to see it on my own. I just can't see it with people who won't get what it means; that would be worse than having to wait to see it, for sure!
Okay, now I'm back to Erised and being AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA again! :-P
*bounces*

Date: 2016-08-07 02:42 pm (UTC)I absolutely cried twice with joy. And there is a sequence which everyone who has seen the film will know exactly what I am talking about, where my eyes nearly have a fucking orgasm and I would honestly watch 2 hours solid of that alone.
Plus Chris Hemsworth is never a BAD thing to look at, amirite? ;)

Date: 2016-08-07 02:50 pm (UTC)My daughter showed me some of those autocorrect pokemon names, and I think my fave was 'Keith' instead of Meowth - the whole house has now started calling everybody Keith, we're ridiculous.
Also, I fucking LOVED Ghostbusters! Everything about it was so fucking perfect. I think my fave moment was Patty and her refusal to enter the 'room full of nightmares', LMFAO
*continues bouncing off walls*

Date: 2016-08-07 03:01 pm (UTC)Keith is great. I keep meaning to rename some of my pokemon but I haven't got around to it. We have started singing Gangam Style whenever we see a Psyduck, though ;)

Date: 2016-08-07 03:11 pm (UTC)Also, is it acceptable to by excited re: Erised as a mere bystander? It's my fave fest! It's genuinely what I love most about the winter hols. Bless all of you hardworking authors and artists...

Date: 2016-08-07 03:12 pm (UTC)*lol* Your description of what you like in Ghostbusters made me love. I can safely say we do agree on Holtzmann. (However, give me all the scary and dark and the REAL GUNS, if you may! I won't be looking for that in Ghostbusters, though. :))
If anybody reads this who didn't get into Erised: Come on over to the Owl Side. We got Cookies!!!!
