fannish stuff PLUS real life interlude!

[schmerica]

i. So, Invader Zim. Gerard is Dib and Mikey is Gaz, but I can't decide whether Pete is more Zim or GIR. THIS LACK OF EASY CASTING DISTURBS ME.

ii. Everytime I see the word Stumptown it makes me go "...Patrick?" Since I live in the suburbs of Portland, you can see how this might be a problem.

iii. Why is Gabe singing in Spanish at the beginning of "Smile for the Paparazzi" so fucking hot, you guys? Ugh.

iiiB. Hey, do any of you know if Ray Toro actually speaks Spanish? I had assumed he had heritage knowledge, but my Google-fu has led me to now think he doesn't, or at least not very well? There's this, but that seems memorized rather than fluent.

iv. ONE MONTH UNTIL I'M BACK AT SCHOOL. I left Eugene during my breakdown in mid-May; it's been almost seven months. Next week is my birthday. In three weeks it's a whole new year, new semester, new chance. Maybe I'll actually finally graduate in June.

(Classes I am taking this term: linguistics seminar on Proto-Indo-European; linguistics seminar on neurolinguistics; low level general biology evolution class for my gen ed requirements. Two of these I am super excited about!)

The only part that sucks about this is the complete lack of central/southern Oregon fangirls. *LONELY FACE*

v. I feel as if these two pictures have a theme going on, but I'm not sure quite what it is.

vi. Mikeyway!

"No, Mikey - it's M-I-K-E-Y"

WAY is only three letters! It's not that hard!

[impertinence.livejournal.com]

The theme is that Mikey always forgets how to spell his own name. That's why they got him the "Mikey" hoodie. Poor Mikeyway.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Man, in that case, you think they would have printed the letters upside down, wouldn't you? So he can see it looking down!

[soundslikej.livejournal.com]

...well there was that one time, where they were doing a signing in front of a mirror, and he signed everything YEKIM...

[soundslikej.livejournal.com]

Ynnrgh. Yes please, I'd like to have Gabe speaking Spanish at me all the time.

What? Languages are sexy!

Also, MIKEYWAY ILU.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Languages ARE sexy! Especially Gabe with Spanish, for some reason. Mmmmmm.

I would say Pete as the Zim to Brendon's GIR. Also I have no actual idea but I would bet on Toro knowing more words and phrases than your average non-Hispanic American, but not really being fluent.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Oooh, I like your casting! Brendon would make a pretty cute GIR. And I think your Ray speculation makes sense as well.

I'm just finishing up a linguistics seminar on DPs... and oh god, the amount of snickering I do behind my hand every single week. Because I am clearly a 15 year old boy who just discovered porn, or something.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

In the spring I'm taking phonology and functional syntax, which are both major requirements, but I've already taken all the regular courses offered in winter, so it's time for random fun shit, woo! There was a really interesting one on auxiliary verb constructions last year.

[thesamefire.livejournal.com]

i'm taking phonology next term and i'm pretty terrified. it just doesn't make any sense to me!

[photo-confused.livejournal.com]

Brendon is so GIR..although pete would be more likely to dress up in a dog suit.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

There is this one episode where Zim is dressed up in a fuzzy bear suit covered with random stains, and it is never addressed or explained.

[photo-confused.livejournal.com]

oh man i totally forgot about that! Yup, pete is now offically Zim.

You live in the suburbs of Portland? I live in Vancouver!

Gabe speaking Spanish=Hot like burning. Seriously. That boy.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Yeah -- actually, I'm in Forest Grove, so far enough west it probably doesn't count as the suburbs quite any more. But Tri-Met still comes out this far, so whatever. As long as I can get downtown with relative ease I'm okay.

[scizojess.livejournal.com]

They need to connect the Tri-Met to Vancouver somehow. But that would probably cost a whole lot of money.

[missmollyetc.livejournal.com]

...YOU LIVE IN FOREST GROVE OREGON???

Um. In the second of those two pictures, I am almost positive that Mikey is wearing a Butchies wristband. Because I have the same one.

Aw, Mikeyway, you're such a DYKE.

(still needing a MikeyWay icon, obvs. Here, here's his brother's stupid face).

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

UGH, my HEART. Way to make me love him even more, dude.

[belladonnalin.livejournal.com]

Gotta love the boy whose representing for dyke rock, you know?

[missmollyetc.livejournal.com]

I believe the theme of those pictures is 'Mikeyway Cuddle Time." Actually.

[pearl-o.livejournal.com]

Mikeyway Cuddle Time is THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR.

Hi, you don't know me at all, but I saw this post on my friendsfriends and I just had to comment. I truly, truly think that Frank would be Gir. He's pretty much got the size down already! I just keep seeing Frank going up to Gerard and saying, "Make me a sammich!" or "Let's make biscuits!"
I also could see Frank reenacting my icon.
