"Straight Up" is playing on the 80s MusicChoice station right now, and it's really pissing me off. Do you realize that there's an entire generation of people who only know Paula Abdul as a judge on American Idol? Lucky squealling bastards.

It's sorely tempting for me to go into the kitchen and whack myself over the head with a frying pan until I get amnesia, if only to get that video of hers with Keanu Reeves out of my head. (Bonus points if the brain cells containing the memories of the one where she dances with the cartoon cat die off, too.)

Oh, and a massive ego-stroking question jacked from lots42 ...

Why did you add me to your friends list?

Why did you add me to your friends list?

Cause I lured you over here. *cackle*

[wal-lace.livejournal.com]

I was bored, you were amusing, and I re-read Boy Cooties at least once every three months.

You still are amusing, but I am no longer bored. So it must have worked.

[leatherdykeuk.livejournal.com]

Why did you add me to your friends list?
Because, like myself, you dance one step to the left of the majority. ~smile~

[ficangel.livejournal.com]

You added me first, so I read your journal and discovered that you are a rather diabolical smartass. Also, you talk about setting your car up on dates.

[dustbunnygirl.livejournal.com]

The big shiny gun you pointed to my head while saying "Add me to your friend's list or else!"

or, could've been:

The 20 bucks you slipped me to add you and then go around telling people "She's the wittiest person I know!"

or:

During a fit of boredom, I looked at my big empty friend's list and thought "hmmm, gotta add somebody, why not TP?"

[tinagilman.livejournal.com]

Why did you add me to your friends list?

Because I've read your X-Men Movieverse fanfic and it's really, really funny.

[artemis-child.livejournal.com]

I added you because I first read your stuff on metaquotes and enjoyed your smartass and often random humor - you crack my shit up ^_^

[laughingrat.livejournal.com]

Because you added me to yours. :) Of course, I knew your work prior that because I read Metaquotes.

Paula Abdul did a video with Keanu Reeves?

And thank you, now I've got that song in my head. I'm at work and can't play decent music to chase it away, either. Argh!

[norabombay.livejournal.com]

Now now.

The video for Rush Rush was some of Keanu Reeves finest acting. Espescially the part where he stood there all pretty and didn't talk.

Yes.

[apocalypsos.livejournal.com]

That describes approximately 87% of "Matrix Reloaded," you realize.

I added you to my friends list???

[mostlynormal1.livejournal.com]

Oh, yeah. I guess I did.

Mostly because you told me to. Now stop with the ego-stroking and WRITE SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE!!!

[wenchamok.livejournal.com]

Why did you add me to your friends list?

So I can make fun of your silly, short lil' Gidgety self....

[imperfect_tense]

This is embarassing but... I'd found your Richie stuff a few years ago and thought 'Wow, she's really cool'. Fast-forward to a few months ago when I found your 'All Beer, No Foam' story. There was much squeeing. Then I saw that you had an LJ. The rest, as they say, is history.

Confession time...

[girlwithjournal.livejournal.com]

I was a huge fan of your Buffy fic back in the day. I was on the same mailing list as you were, and I watched "Ghost in the Shell" unfold with great glee. And your posts were always hilarious. Fast-forward two years, and I'm stumbling on your LJ completely by accident. Has LJ! Still funny! Wheeee! Instant friending.

Wow, I wove that into such a beautiful story. ::sniff::

[myniamh.livejournal.com]

Why did you add me to your friends list?

I thought I'd already told you that?
"much easier than going to metaquotes!"

[overloved.livejournal.com]

Because you're funny.

I can't imagine why you added me back, though. Or why my insane Popslash squeeling hasn't scared you off yet.

[tangletoy.livejournal.com]

You're incredibly funny.

[tenebris.livejournal.com]

You're funny, you're genki, and you do some great ranting.

You know, I thought i was the only one who remembered the "let's rip off Rebel Without a Cause" Paula Abdul video. One of the finest perfomances of Keanu's career, no doubt.

[mayatawi.livejournal.com]

::*snerks* at your icon::

[mayatawi.livejournal.com]

Oh, and to answer your question: because I absolutely adored "All Foam, No Beer". And because you're always that funny. < g >

[fallofrain.livejournal.com]

Oooh, nice icon! (Speaking of icons...)

[mayatawi.livejournal.com]

Heh. Thank you kindly! *slurps yours*

[jrosestar.livejournal.com]

Why did you add me to your friends list?

I did not want to add you, you made me! I read you on a friend's friend list and thought "I like the way she thinks."

And when I read about Barney's guts splashed on a wall (a perfect description of that paint color) - I knew there was no going back.

~laughs~
Jean.

[lots42.livejournal.com]

Because of all the times you got quoted on metaquotes.

[1st-folio.livejournal.com]

I added you because YOU were the first one to mention Live Journal--and all those metaquotes at the bottom of your emails absolutely snagged me.

So see, it is all your fault I am here.

[semmie17.livejournal.com]

Because I know your rapier wit from waaay back in Highlander Fandom (1996 or so), the Highl-L list and especially the ROG list. And because you still make me smile. *twinkle*

Why did you add me to your friends list?

[wonderlander.livejournal.com]

Teh prittie!!!!111!!oneone!!!11
Okay, that took me about five minutes to type and it hurt my brain.
for real? you're funny.

[minisinoo.livejournal.com]

Because you'd added me and I enjoyed your fiction.

Well...
