fannish stuff PLUS real life interlude!

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"

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

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

What? Languages are sexy!

Also, MIKEYWAY ILU.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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).

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

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.
