Attack of the Bullet List

[primroseburrows]

• Imeem is like YouTube, only cooler.
  
  Exhibit A: Best XF Vid Ever. Song choice ftw!
  
  
  
  
  
• Am behind on ds_aprilfools due to temporary writers block meets RL. Will have to post several things at once, alas.
  
  
• I missed bjohan57's birthday, mostly because she doesn't put it in her profile, and also muskratjamboree. She wants picspam as penance/present. Or I could write something, if my block goes away soon.
  
  
• Sent peacey the dS pilot. I love being a crack dealer.
  
  
• I'm really going to work on learning to vid, because the ideas in my head won't go away.
  
  
• Speaking about vidding: last weekend omphale23 introduced me to WWI Fanvids. No, I am not lying. Look for yourself. Of course, they're called "tributes", not fanvids, but they're identical in form and techniques. It's vaguely disturbing but the weird thing is that it's impossible to look away.
  
  
  
  
  
• Germany has a Complaints Choir, whee! I've been waiting for this.
  
  
  
  
  
• Work for the next three days. I don't do Easter, but I would have liked to have been with the kids. *sigh*
  
  
• mickeymvt is going to co-author a story with me. I've never done that. We should chat soon, dear.
  
  
• eltonroo! mr_t00by and I will be going to see the Sox play the Jays at Fenway July 14 (mr_t00by's birthday). I'll be thinking of you the whole time the Jays are getting their arses kicked. It's the least I can do for such a nice guy. :)
  
  
• More later. I'm in a bullet lists kinda mood. :)

The Helsinki one is still the best. Apparently Canada has its own version, although I'm stuck at work and can't listen.

Go Jays! *waves flag*

I have nothing against the Jays (or any other team that's not the Yankees *g*) unless they're up against my Red Sox. Then it's personal. :)

Aw, I just said "go Jays" to tease you. I don't watch much baseball any more.

Thanks for the link to the Canuck version. It's good; but too professional, if you know what I mean. Too Toronto. The Helsinki one was great because they didn't seem too polished. At the other end of the spectrum, I saw the Birmingham complaints song. Total amateurs, but they have so much fun!

I don't know about "too Toronto" because I've never been there (even though I could swear I've been to the CN tower. Go figure). My favourite is still the Helsinki one.

I think the US and Canada should do regional ones, anyway, because what a California person would complain about isn't what I would, and you're not likely to complain about snow removal in Moncton. I mean not unless snow removal is your main cause, or something.

Me, I'd write something like:

"There are no street signs in Providence
because people just think everyone lives there.
I can't buy my milk and bread
When the forecast calls for a flurry."

Okay, I replied as myself, but LJ didn't believe me or something. The above was me. *sigh*
