Ask me to list my top five of anything! Top Five Songs? Top Five On Screen Kisses? Top Five Movies? Top Five Comic Books? Top Five Favorite Fictional Characters? Top Five Books? Top Five Music Videos? Top Five Web Sites? Top Five OTP's? Nothing is off limits! Be inventive! Ask for as many lists as you want.
IDK, just indulge me, I'm bored and thirteen minutes off eating my feelings away with a block of Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolate. Okay, that was a lie. It's more like six minutes.

Date: 2010-11-13 02:28 am (UTC)hmm, let me see. LET ME SEEEEE. I don't remember if I've asked you these before so if I have, go ahead and ignore them. (y)
1) top five songs about love (because I'm feeling romantic, ALRIGHT)..not just lovey dovey ones, unless you want to. I will accept sad/depressing songs as well.
2) top five punchable faces..I mean, people that you don't like as soon as you see them and you just want to karate chop them into oblivion..and also some people, they've just got those faces, even if you think they're nice and shit, ya know? real life people and celebrities are OK. you do not need to explain the reason why you think they have a punchable face and if it is a real person, you don't need to explain who they are. example: RP!Tim and you move on.
3) top five songs ATM
4) top five bands who you think have a better sophomore album than a debut one BECAUSE YOU'RE CRAZY LIKE THAT
5) top five pet names (btw you still need to come up with my German name because if you don't then I can't be your baby cow)
--a) top five pets because WHY NOT?
6) top five colors for boots
hm, I guess I'll stop there. I hope that's enough to make you wish I'd never commented on this post.

Date: 2010-11-13 07:35 am (UTC)Love songs:
I don't want to get over you - the Magnetic Fields
I don't want to get over you.
I guess I could take a sleeping pill and sleep at will,
And not have to go through what I go through.
I guess I should take Prozac, right, and just smile all night at somebody new.
Somebody not too bright, but sweet and kind, who would try to get you off my mind,
I could leave this agony behind,
Which is just what I'd do if I wanted to,
But I don't want to get over you.
One day like this - Elbow
Someone tell me how I feel,
It's silly wrong but vivid right,
Oh, kiss me like the final meal,
Yeah, kiss me like we die tonight.
Cause holy cow, I love your eyes,
And only now I see the light,
Yeah, lying with me half-awake,
Oh, anyway, it's looking like a beautiful day.
Isn't it a lovely night - the Decemberists
And wasn't it a lovely breeze,
That swept the leaves of arbor eaves and bent to brush our blushing knees?
And here we died our little deaths,
And we were left to catch our breaths so swiftly lifting from our chests.
God Only Knows - Beach Boys
If you should ever leave me,
Though life would still go on, believe me,
The world could show nothing to me,
So what good would living do me?
God only knows what I'd be without you.
Starlings - Elbow
How dare the Premier ignore my invitations?
He'll have to go.
So, too, the bunch he luncheons with.
It's second on my list of things to do.
At the top is stopping by your place of work and acting like,
I haven't dreamed of you and I and marriage in an orange grove.
You are the only thing in any room you're ever in,
I'm stubborn, selfish and too old.
Punchable faces - Megan Fox, Jason Lee when he's got the My Name Is Earl mo, Billie Piper, the lead singer of Maroon 5 and Jennifer Lopez.
Current top five songs - Billie Holiday - Warpaint, Magic Tricks - Campfire OK, Wedding Song - Anais Mitchell, The Mariner's Revenge Song - the Decemberists and Forest Knolls - John Vanderslice.
Better second album - fuck you for making me think about this. Um. Which Interpol album did I say I liked best? It was TotBL wasn't it? That was their first anyway so nm. Um. I'll say Arcade Fire's Neon Bible was stronger than Funeral, not necessarily better though. Same goes for Coldplay's Rush of Blood to the Head. And Franz Ferdinand's You Could Have It So Much Better. Neutral Milk Hotel's In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. And Doves The Last Broadcast for sure.
Pet names - In my hunt for your German name, I saw the name Otto Von Bismark, so that's all the way up the top for favourite pet names. Miss Kitty Fantastico from Buffy. Chairman Meow (lol-ing forever at this one). Sergeant Pepper. And putting 'the third' after any name, for example Vladimir the third.
IDK. Can't I call you Nietzsche? Or Wolfgang? Or Klaus? Or Kafka? OH HEY, what about Zuckerpuppe - it means Sweetie Pie apparently, awww.
Pets - dog, cat, cow, orca and giraffe.
Boots - wtf, um black, red, and brown are the only acceptable colours.

- Fray Luis De Leon
Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first.
- Mark Twain
No two on earth in all things can agree. All have some daring singularity.
- Winston Churchill
Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.
- C. S. Lewis
Wit is educated insolence.
- Aristotle
Songs: Billie Holiday - Warpaint, Magic Tricks - Campfire OK, Wedding Song - Anais Mitchell, The Mariner's Revenge Song - the Decemberists and Forest Knolls - John Vanderslice.
Villains: Agent Smith (the Matrix), Frank (Once Upon a Time in the West), Keyser Söze (the Usual Suspects), Professor Umbridge (HP) and Moriarty (Sherlock) XD
Tea: I don't drink tea! But in an abstract way I think all the fruity blends (you know, infused with strawberry or citrus etc) sound lovely, even though I've tried them and I know they're not.
