the post about nothing!

I...just felt compelled to add myself as a livejournal friend, for reasons I am finding difficult to articulate. Uhm. Some possible explanations I am entertaining in the face of a TOTAL VOID OF LOGIC:
1. This course of action clearly promotes the illusion of self-confidence. I am even considering someday finding it a place on a shiny, shiny college resume.
2. OR MAYBE it is of a profane nature and doesn't belong in such an overwhelmingly scrupulous environment: maybe I have actually just answered the eternal question would I do me? (I WOULD, AND I DO, IN CASE YOU MISSED THAT.)
2. OR MAYBE it is actually a masochistic Cave of Solitude. HOW WILL I EVER FRIEND ME BACK? WHAT IF I DRIVE ME TO FLOUNCIFICATION? I DON'T THINK I AM BUILT TO SURVIVE THIS KINDA ANGST. D: D: D:
3. ...and now I'm too busy weeping piteously to think of any more reasons. *BASKS IN LONELY LIVEJOURNAL DESPERADO-DOM* (I am totally badass enough to be a desperado okay. I am at least an outlaw in the face of LOGIC, and no one can deny that.)
[Poll #1397035]
...my brain, sometimes ze is inane as all hell. And I mean the doctor's-waiting-room level of hell reserved for procrastinators, I guess, because otherwise the phrase "inane as all hell" doesn't actually make any SENSE, does it. Because fire and brimstone are much more terrifying and smelly than they are inane. In other, much more pressing news, tea is delicious. Do you know who is even more delicious than tea? BETH MOTHERFUCKING DITTO, THAT'S WHO. THE GOSSIP HAS A NEW SINGLE OUT, YOU GUYS \o/ \o/ \o/. If you are unacquainted with Beth Ditto, she is all you ever need to know about awesomeness, pretty much. If you need any convincing, I would like to introduce you to
ishyface's kick-ass picspam from forevers ago. I would also like to advertise the fact that an earbud has just found its way nearly up my left nostril, for reasons I am not sure enough of to report (read: I AM SO UNCOORDINATED THAT SOMETIMES THINGS WOT DON'T BELONG IN IMPOSSIBLE ORIFICES END UP THERE. that sounds horrifically double entendre-y, doesn't it ;__;). LET IT BE KNOWN THAT EVEN MY BOOGERS ARE RIOT GRRRLS. Also, this entry lacks any cohesive narrative. In case you hadn't noticed already. BRAIN, DO YOU THINK YOU COULD MANAGE TO SIT STILL FOR AWHILE? I WOULD BE VERY APPRECIATIVE, JUST SAYIN.
(ALSO, IT IS FRIDAY. I NO DO THE THINKY TOO WELL TONIGHT, BUT HEY! I LIKE THIS. DOUBLEPLUSGOOOOOD.)

Date: 2009-05-09 01:44 am (UTC)Wait wait! Pretty positive the Ditto has rocked a feather boa, at least once (the woman has rocked every possible fashion statement at least once, jeezusgod♥___♥). Aha! This explains it. You were in a state of hopelessly drug-addled confusion and mistook her for Gee Way, am I right?

Date: 2009-05-09 02:20 am (UTC)She is TOTALLY more delicious than tea, END OF.
PS: both "con't" and "cont" really do look like "cunt" to me. "con't" is just an ungrammatical version. Also, usually I'd google a simple grammatical goof like that, but but but. FLIST, DOESN'T IT MAKE YOU FEEL LIKE A ROCK STAR TO BE ASKED THESE THINGS? In my little lunguafuck brain, grammarian totally equates rock star anyway.

Date: 2009-05-09 04:02 am (UTC)Regina Spektor's new single is out also! Not just The Gossip's. Just letting you know in case you didn't already. It's a little different and I'm actually not sure of my opinion of it. Have you heard it yet?
no subject
Date: 2009-05-09 02:47 pm (UTC)Ahahaha I think I was actually listening to Regina's new single (it still seems like a magical, magical dream that she's actually releasing new stuff again omg) AS you were leaving this comment. (SIDE NOTE: this was just before I literally walked face first into a door. *airfist*) Honestly, I'm not sure how I feel about it yet either. My knowledge about music is admittedly limited, but it sounds almost...R&B-y? It sounds like it has great potential to grow on me, but right now I'm kinda not really feeling it. idk. It seems like her sense of humor isn't coming across as strongly as it usually does, do you know what I mean? Maybe it just needs some context, which brings us back to IS IT JUNE 23RD YET???
and and and: "sorry bout the new cover mix up. We had a million comps, ideas, and we posted the wrong ones... everything is like a kaleidoscope... i'm giving up trying to make things perfect, because they never are... i bet my record comes out called 'Fart'... i kind of hope it... i've kind of wanted it to be called fart for a while... ever since i named it far, i wished it was fart..." --her myspace. This woman is magical, is she not? :D :D

Date: 2009-05-09 08:55 pm (UTC)Not even kidding. What the hell? Seriously. What's wrong with us?
It doesn't sound R&B to me, but since when has Regina been preachy?
I mean, she uses religious references a lot but since when has she been all "GOD IS GREAT, GUYS!"
And, haha, yeah. She's hilarious.

Date: 2009-05-10 03:49 am (UTC)I'm already starting to dig this song tbh; I think I was just thrown off because it's more, like, traditional-sort-of-less-crazy-makin-noises-like-an-airplane than her other stuff and had a CHORUS and where the hell are the crazy lyrical and vocal acrobatics and WHY IS THERE NO NARRATIVE STRUCTURE (dbsjdbjkasd "Genius Next Dooooor" ♥) ad nauseam.
Ha, I'm not actually getting a preachy vibe from this song. "God can be funny" sounds like something your granny says, I know, but it sounds to me more like she's asking, why do we need God, and all those other big, great ideas that are very far away--yanno, ineffable and stuff--when the shit hits the fan? Or maybe she's laughing at/with that percentage of atheists who still catch themselves praying, or she just spent a few stanzas contemplating why there's more often than not no atheists in foxholes. Or maybe she just heard the phrase "atheists in foxholes" and decided Richard Dawkins was a silver fox and was unduly amused by writing a song about her hobvious braincrush on Dawkins. Who knows? Chick is just kind of an off-beat thinker, eh?
OR MAYBE she can see she is clearly a God of Music and the line "God can be so hilaaaarious!" is nothin' but straight-up autobiography. ®INA NAH NAH NAHHHH;
(my comments are always so chock full of RAMBLE ha ha. don't get me started on Regina Spektor, I guess :P)
EDITED BECAUSE I FAIL. apologies for the spam!

Date: 2009-05-10 10:22 pm (UTC)I'm getting used to it, also, and I hope your interpretation is right. That would make a world of difference as to how much I liked it. Although I do miss the over-all missing Regina-ness.
And, haha, it's okay. You're lucky you even have the edit button!
