yamamanamaDay 3: Eight ways to win your heart.
1. Be, for some reason or another, completely unattainable.
2. be talkative enough to fill awkward silences. I will listen to you.
3. But actually listen to me when I do have something to say. It may be important. Like when I told everyone to not download or purchase or obtain in any other way a band because someone you know may like the name.
4. be a shoegazer.
5. appreciate the beauty in everything.
6. have an interest about about other cultures and other places, don't just be content with your own private bubble.
7. Make art or music or poetry or prose or anything that will make the world a more beautiful place when you leave than it was when you entered it.
8. Think a movie like Turkish Star Wars or Death Bed: The Bed That Eats People is a better movie than the latest in shitty romantic comedies. If a movie's going to be bad, it should at least be fun to watch.
I can't help but be drawn to one of Gonterman's drawings. I'm not linking to it because it has more views than anything I have on DeviantArt combined and I'm really quite ashamed of that fact. It's like on The Simpsons, where Bart asks for a ton of lima beans because he likes to look at them because they're so gross.
Hypocrisy, thy name is biblioclast. Mindless destruction like Burn A Koran Day is all well and good and anyone who disagrees with it hates freedom and America, but some art (entitled The Misadventures of the Romantic Cannibals) in Loveland, CO is offensive and must be suppressed. I'd like to say that to someone in particular, but that would require that said someone not block anyone to the left of Miklos Horthy.
Incidentally, I've seen only one post (on Devianart, by someone from Istanbul) supporting the work of art.
I'm most disappointed by the people of Old Hippie forums. No, hippie is not synonymous with quisling. Chinese people don't use the Cyrillic alphabet, so don't put the Chinese flag on your banner ads if you for some reason want to write Obama in faux-Cyrillic. Sndiyamdp phbdmd my ass. I could jump up and down on my keyboard and look more convincing.

The scary thing is: that stuff actually looks tasty if I didn't know what it was.
I had a poll here but since I can't edit polls once they're out there, I'm just going to delete it and replace it with a new one later. A pity, I had the perfect thing to put there but only thought about it once I posted the poll. Ta ta.
In the meanwhile...
Burning Question: Could the components of these be any more difficult to find? Better yet, there are two of them. One of them is ten for everything and asks for favorite songs. And if this was the tumblr I found it on, these entries would intersect with an entirely different quiz, several entries consiting of song lyrics or Gormenghast quotes, Worker and Parasite, and a photo of me vomiting up fish eyes.
