word on the street is, he came here to make us dance tonight.

Here is what I knew about Ashlee Simpson, prior to getting into bandom, solely from the magical of cultural osmosis:

1) Her sister is an idiot
2) She lip-synched on some show
3) She got a nose job

Here is the increased knowledge of Ashlee Simpson I have gained since getting into bandom:

1) She and Pete Wentz are incredibly fucking adorable together, my goodness.

During my bus ride home today it occurred to me that an icon of Gabe Saporta looking adorable with the caption "Human Garbage!" would be hilarious. You know. To me. Probably no one else.

My cell phone is on the fritz again. This makes me sad! Largely because my primary way of entertaining myself during breaks at work is usually to send text messages to people and implore them to tell me entertaining things about Pete Wentz. Sigh.

I've reached a point where I can't remember always who has friended me back and who hasn't, so I'm never sure when I'm leaving stupid caps-locked eager comments in people's journals if I'm doing so as a known and welcome entity or kind-of-creepy stranger. Oops.

(Which reminds me! Hi, people. If I don't have you friended, you're still welcome to friend me; you don't have to ask. Whether I have you friended or not, you're welcome to comment on any of my posts. If I'm posting something publically, it's because I want to have a conversation about it. I love comments.)

In conclusion, I leave you with this:



He looks freaking tiny here, seriously, doesn't he? I think it must be the angle.

Hi GeeWay! Hi your little FACE!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

LOOKIT HIM, JAI. LOOKIT.

[soundslikej.livejournal.com]

I am reasonably sure that every time I look at him I fall a little more in love.

It just should not be possible anymore!!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

IT IS LIKE IN THE GRINCH WHEN HIS HEART GREW THREE SIZES THAT DAY ONLY IT IS BECAUSE OF GERARD NOT WHOVIANS SINGING CHRISTMAS CAROLS.

[soundslikej.livejournal.com]

....it appears that I am the Grinch in this metaphor.

....I am strangely ok with that!

*HEART GROWS*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

...Oops. I THINK I meant that all of us were the Grinch? And Gerard just shines with the joy of pure Christmas spirit and unGrinches us all? Or something?

Possibly I should not be allowed to have metaphors.

[secrethappiness.livejournal.com]

i feel like there should be some kind of a warning for this picture of gway like 'warning: you will stammer upon seeing this picture and may possibly forget your name for a brief second'.

i used to watch ashlee simpson's reality show. it was pretty good, mainly because, at least once a show, she would exclaim "i'm not my sister!" and flounce off.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Don't ALL pictures of Gerard kind of have that warning? Just by, like, default? Because if not, they should.

I didn't even know she had a reality show, honestly. That's kind of hilarious.

[secrethappiness.livejournal.com]

it was on mtv and it was on for like 2 seasons. part of it showcased her working on her album and fighting the label guys and trying to get taken seriously. in a way, it was awesome and in another way, it was really cringe-inducing. she is a very serious artist, and nobody understood her pain except her weird pineapple-head boyfriend.

[shoemaster.livejournal.com]

He looks a little bit like an alien.

That needs a really big dinner and then a NAP.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

...Possibly also some hugs?

Also, I was thinking less "alien" than "SAD KITTEH WHO WAS LEFT OUT IN THE RAIN D:"

[shoemaster.livejournal.com]

Fair! But the instinct on what to do in response to that is the same. Dinner, hugs, sleep.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Ugh, except I have discovered the flaw in the "Gerard = kitty!" plan, and it is the horribleness of jokes to be made about getting in my lap. SAD.

(The "YOU'RE A KITTY!" is remarkably similar to "YOU'RE GERARD!", though.)

[svilleficrecs.livejournal.com]

I like her song "Lala"

I am not ashamed.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Shame in music is lame, anyway. Like what you like!

[roguewords.livejournal.com]

omg. How Cute.


(dude, i don't even care about bandom. I just know there's pretty boys. and now you're showing me pretty boys with Ashlee Simpson!! that I might have had an entirely inappropriate crush on at one time.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Well, some of them are pretty. Some of them are just dorkfaces. <3

[roguewords.livejournal.com]

pretty....

dorkface....

*makes weighing hand motions*

Totally the same thing. ;)

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

*giggles* Fair enough!

[roguewords.livejournal.com]

that idea totally explains my tastes in boys. *nods*

[doll-revolution.livejournal.com]

dude!

did you see the cute pete & ash pics in my lj? (which i got from ice cream?)

OMG i love her because she makes him HAPPY

http://doll-revolution.livejournal.com/111022.html

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

UGH WHY SO CUTE.

[xanphibian.livejournal.com]

I just want to feed him soup. :(

actually, I want them all to be fed soup and be told to look after themselves and go to a damned doctor when they're sick/hurt/IN PAIN. *frets*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Ahahahahaha, like Ryan Ross! (He, um, offered soup to fangirls. Because it was raining. ...That is all I know.)

[xanphibian.livejournal.com]

Hey, I CARE okay? *facepalms*

[marginaliana]

Gway does look adorably bedraggled there. Hi, gerard, I have a fluffy towel for you!

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Fluffy towel! All wrapped up with his little face sticking out! Nawwwwwwww.

[greyandgrey.livejournal.com]

Oh Ashlee, (or, as my brother once said "Ashlee Simpson who punkily spells her name with two Es" - for some reason I think this whenever she is brought up)
I... neither like nor dislike her. I think as a character in fic she can be really well used to further other events or create mildly interesting background noise. That's about as far as my interest in her goes. Though I have to say: Her 80's birthday party? AMAZING!

Hi! I'm friending you because Marie basically ordered her entire flist to do it, and who am I to disobey? Also, you seem to post fun things. so, *waves*

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Hello! Welcome!

Yeah, I ... have no opinion whatsoever of Ashlee Simpson as a person, you know? But as "someone who makes Pete do cute things", I'm heartily approving at the moment, I guess.
