Music Meme - Day 04

Day 01 - A favorite song
Day 02 - A song that makes you happy
Day 03 - A song that makes you sad
Day 04 - A song that reminds you of someone

Look, I'm going to give you all a break here. This is a song that I didn't even want to listen to, lest it be stuck in my head all day. But I had to be sure the YouTube video worked, and now it's stuck and I'm just trying to save the rest of you. Suffice to say, this song reminds me of feiran. Not because the lyrics refer to things that remind of her. Not because she introduced it to me. Not because we enjoyed this song together. (Lord knows, that isn't the reason!)

It's the song that reminds me of feiran because I never hear it ever, not EVER, without going, "God, remember that time when she used to..." YES WE REMEMBER. IT WAS AGGRAVATING AND WE EVEN DIDN'T HATE THAT [TELLING YOU WOULD GET THE SONG STUCK IN YOUR HEAD]!

So, click on the cut to find the song that I cannot even mention because even mentioning it was enough to get it stuck in my head. I swear to you folks: tomorrow WILL be better so help me.

( Remember: this is feiran's fault. )

I collect links to never read

When I'm bored at work, I scour the internet. The problem is that the internet is done by about three hours into my scouring, far as I'm concerned, and then I'm bored. This boredom is made worse by all the links to things I can't read or can't focus enough on to make a coherent post about whatever it is. So I'm going to just collect links here and think about it later. Maybe.

-Predator 2: Not as bad as you think! What? It wasn't! It's nowhere near as smart as Predator. It's fantastically cheesy at parts, too. But it did some effective things. The disc alone means I can forgive this movie because it lead to my favorite activity in playing one-on-one battles with feiran, which was sniping her with the fucking disc. All joking aside, there were some interesting ideas thrown around this movie, and a few genuine laughs, like when the police chase a bad guy onto a subway and fully ten commuters draw guns on the bad guy, too. Or when Gary Busey showed up. Laugh a minute, that.

-This may be a totally relevant and cogent post about how Glee isn't as progressive/transgressive as you think, but I can't read it because I'm still watching the show. Damn it. But I could have told you that. I mean, yay, it has a stable of characters that include people of color, a disabled student, and a gay student. But the show has really missed some opportunities to do more than just throw "teachable moments" at us. For all that I love Kurt, he was the one who pushed and pushed and pushed until [spoiler character] finally snapped and called him the F-word. It's not a nice word, and usage of it is still bad, but some acknowledgment that Kurt provoked it might have been nice. Because gay people are people, too, and sometimes they are pricks. Also, guess what? All the female characters are still crazy and/or evil. PROGRESS.

-I like this stand! Possibly to use to hide kitty litter!
