My list of potential cruxy names is getting really really really long. I'm not sure I can make myself wait to use them
I would like to state for the record that I REALLY HATE IT when people call it a "sammich". Along those lines, don't call it "sketti"! WE ARE NOT 5 YEARS OLD ANYMORE PEOPLE
Sorry
I had to vent.
And "love" is just a miserable lie
You have destroyed my flower-like life
Not once - twice
The site where I got these lyrics describes the end of Miserable Lie as an "unsuccessful rock-out". What do you think? I thought it was supposed sound unsuccessful... I thought it was a musical joke!
The thing that's so stupid about the music board is most of the time people just use it to diss acts they think are dumb. Rather than, you know, have intelligent, measured conversations about them. I guess it's unrealistic to expect that from SG
*bitch bitch bitch*
Speaking of things getting dissed, it's like "let's diss Crux week" or something! First Annie gets dissed, then someone comes into my puzzles group and disses puzzles which is like my favorite pastime (they joined and left just to say that... and then got zotted HA!), then someone disses hash browns which is one of my favorite foods, and now people are dissing my east coast dialect ("it's pop not soda")!
STOP DISSING ME! I don't know, maybe I get dissed all the time and just never paid attention until now.
You know, I just remembered a diss I was dealt way back in high school, and it was over the word "diss". I went to the birthday party of one of my friends, and she had invited a couple of her totally horrible evil bitchy girlfriends. I said something about "dissing" something, and they (having treated me like utter shit all night) essentially laughed in my face for using the word "diss". This was the late '90s when rap was getting big again, so it's not like the word "diss" hadn't come back into the popular vernacular by then. Those girls were just the worst pair of tramps I'd ever encountered.
Crux fact: I repeat myself a lot. I'm off SqueakyShoes's Christmas card list for saying "cargo pants" one too many times. Though he sent me a hot picture of Annie so maybe I'm forgiven. CARGO PAAAAANTS
When I was a kid, circa late 1980s, I discovered a Polish singer named Basia Trzetrzelewska (known as Basia, obv) through my dad's fondness of her music. I thought she was Czech but she's not. Anyway I LOVED her and my dad thought it was awesome that I picked up on something he liked. He would play her tapes in his car when he was taking me around and we were doing stuff together. Good memories. So whenever I'd visit my dad and grandma, one of my favorite things to do was to draw stuff. And one day, I drew an 8-or-so-year-old's drawing of Basia. I also wrote her an 8-or-so-year-old's letter telling her how much I loved her. Dad said "w00t" and took it upon himself to get it sent to Basia through her record company.
WELL SHE GOT IT AND SENT ME A HANDWRITTEN LETTER IN REPLY. That is still to this day one of the coolest things ever in my silly little life. A friend of mine who reads my other journal wanted to see it and I had to share! Here is everything she sent me.
This is the envelope it came in. I believe the address was written by a record company person and not Basia herself, because her handwriting is much sexier. Wow that was the best sentence ever. Oh yeah and you can see dad's old address but I fuzzed out my last name and the apt number so you can't go stalking the people who live there now. My family doesn't live there anymore anyway.
Here is the actual letter, in a size where you can read it. The coolest, bestest part ever is the part where she says she hung my picture up IN HER ROOM WHERE SHE WRITES HER SONGS. Can you believe that?? Now I'm wondering if she still has my picture. Wouldn't it be wild to get in touch with her now, and tell her I'm the little kid who sent her the picture? This was all so special for me and still is.
Also included were a lyric sheet and a PR type letter that I guess the record company stuck in.
Finally, there was an autographed photo that Basia personalized to me. I know what you might think at first (but only at first): eBay city. Of course you know I could never! I'd never give up something this special.
So that's the letter I got sent by Basia! Maybe if I draw a sloppy kid-like drawing of Annie SHE'LL send me a handwritten letter and autographed photo ;D That would be bad and wrong, of course. But I could try to draw her like I normally draw stuff now, maybe she'd dig it. So rusty with the drawing though
Thought that I was goin' crayzay!
Just havin' one of those days, yeah!
Didn't know what to do!
Then there was yooooou!
And everything went from wrong to right
and the stars came up, filled up the sky
The music you were playing really blew my mind
it was love... AT FIRST SIGHT
'Cuz baybee when I heard you
for the first time I knew
we were meant to be
as O-O-O-O-ONE
KISSES FOR KYLIE

i sincerely love ABBA and Madonna, though.....
Also, hash brown dissers need to get electrocuted in the gonads. Hash browns rock.
For mispronounced words, I've sometimes heard spaghetti with the prefix 'spa' getting pig-latinized: pasghetti. Another pet peeve: people who can't spell or say the word 'library' with both r's. It's not libary!
