right, okay, so

Do any of you ever find yourself having a conversation in real life and suddenly want to burst out with "PAUL GROSS ARMS!" as a cry of triumph, only to stop yourself just in time by remembering that it would make less than no sense to anyone you're trying to communicate with?

Yeah, I thought so.

I almost did it today! :D

[lalejandra.livejournal.com]

YES. And not only have I DONE IT, but I have also actually MADE PAUL GROSS ARMS. Not only during conversations with Nancy either.

[isiscolo.livejournal.com]

Paul Gross Arms. They're not just for Paul Gross any more.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

That is one of the many reasons why you are the winner, anna.

[minim_calibre]

No, but I do OFTEN want to burst out with, "That's Naked Paul Gross Good!"

(Which I once used for my Friday Feedbacking on Silverlake, having just watched Men With Brooms.)

[minim_calibre]

(Anyhow, my cry of triumph is STEVE HOLT!)

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

STEVE HOLT!

all the fucking time, man. i also sometimes want to say that i've lost my zebra, but again: they wouldn't be acquainted with the reference.

I am writing sleepy f/k morningsex porn, but fraser keeps insisting on watching ray while he sleeps. do you know why this is happening, missy?

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

do you know why this is happening, missy?

*looks innocent*

*whistles*

[ladysorka]

I have actually made Paul Gross Arms, while saying "Paul Gross arms!"

This is surely a sign of... something.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

The internet is TAKING OVER.

[fox1013.livejournal.com]

Yes, definitely. And I still pretty much only know Paul Gross as That Guy I Only Know About Through You.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

That Guy You Only Know About Through You Who's Canadian And Also Has Something to Do with Mounties. Be fair!

[speshope.livejournal.com]

*giggles* I totally made Paul Gross Arms all the time in England. I didn't vocalize with more than a "WINNAR!" or "HUTTAH!" though.

Those were enough to get me "You are so strange and geeky." looks though.

You can PAUL GROSS ARMS at me to your heart's content in RL. *G*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Strange and geeky are my favorite things about you!

[speshope.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Awww. Well, good, as those two adjectives pretty much sum me up.

[malnpudl.livejournal.com]

Yes. In fact, I've even introduced my two closest RL girlfriends to the term and the emoticon and the gesture, and forced them to watch the "Voodoo" vid so they could understand where it came from.

They still love me anyway.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha. That is real love!

[marginalia.livejournal.com]

"things i want to do that will make no sense to anyone else" is going to be the subtitle of my autobiography :P

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

But what will the title be?

[marginalia.livejournal.com]

hmm. good question.

[bexless.livejournal.com]

I totally get that response, and I've never even watched Paul Gross in anything, as far as I know.

I do draw the \o/ symbol on notes for people sometimes, but I add hands and a face so they know what it is :)

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*giggles* I am sure the hands and face are helpful -- for a long time, I actually thought it was supposed to be someone with their hands on their face. You know, like the scream or something. I dunno.

[brooklinegirl.livejournal.com]

at work the other day, I actually DID Paul Gross arms, albeit sans the usual explanatory shout, because it has, apparently, become a major method of communication for me.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

<3<3<3

As long as you don't start mentioning COCK or PENGUIN BUKAKKE, I think you're still good, though!

[kalpurna.livejournal.com]

Oh my god, pretty much all the time.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*giggles*

[china_shop]

I do PG arms all the time, except that they're actually "COOKIES!" arms, because my co-worker used to do that and say, "COOKIES!" long before PG arms became a thing. And I picked it up. So now I throw my arms in the air and say, "COOKIES!" but I think, "Paul Gross arms!" *is complex*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Hee. You are a deep soul!

[katallison.livejournal.com]

I ... erm ... actually made an attempt to *explain* Paul Gross Arms to a co-worker.

(*weeps for the tattered remnents of my professional reputation*)

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Oh, Kat. I cannot imagine that could have ended well!

[melpemone.livejournal.com]

Yes. :-) And I don't know if I'm thrilled or disturbed to know I'm evidently very much not alone in that one. *g*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Hee. I find it sort of comforting myself.

[aimeelicious]

It never ceases to amaze me how much LJ type stuff has integrated itself into my everyday life. I swear I sometimes THINK IN CAPS when I am mentally emphasizing something. \o/

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

I guess spending hours a day on one activity actually does start to influence your behavior! Who knew?
