Remember my post the other day about weeping over the English language as a result of Flair?

I just searched for grammar flair, and it has cured me. Thank the lord for people who know good grammar, are witty, and have enough free time to make their frustrations into bitchy, clever, scathing, gramatically correct, properly spelled flair.

As Captain Barbosa once said, "Gents! Our hope is restored!"





My personal favorite? "rite 2 me liek dis, and I'll SHOOT YOU." 

Go look at them. They're hilarious. YAY FLAIR!

Item 1: Mom bought me a crap-load of new clothes today. Including new flip-flops. I really like getting new clothes.

Item 2: Abby now has a livejournal! So if you know her, friend her! Her journal is [profile] jurisfiction16

Item 3:

And that's all.

So... PotC: At World's End

It was the most un-Disney-like Disney movie I've ever seen (and I have seen  A LOT of Disney movies.)


And since I don't quite know how I feel about it yet, that's all I'm going to say on the subject. For now.

Oh, except, if you go see it, as with the first two, there's a short scene after the credits. One well worth staying for.

Have just finished watching Dead Man's Chest for the second time.



In other news, FANDOM IS AMAZING. Do you all see what we did? Have you looked at the number of members in [profile] fandom_counts? Fandom has restored some of my faith in humanity. We fought for our rights (ok, I didn't fight, but others did, and I am in fandom) and we succeeded. 

Amen.
So wow.

It's been, like, forever since the last time I updated, which is mostly because lots of busy and lots of Eric on the computer.

And now my Shift key is spazzing. WTF?

Le'anyhoodle, let's start with my birthday.
-Went to lunch with mom at Tapas, where I'd never been before. Consider this my recommendation for it. It was very good.

-Went to see Pirates of the Carribean, Dead Man's Chest, and didn't get the title until about halfway through the movie. Since most of you saw it with me, all I'm going to say about it is what I said in the theater after it was over: HOLY FUCKING SHIT IN A BOX. (And I mean every single one of those capitol letters.) (And did I mention that Sarah is awesome? I'm never going to another movie without her if I can help it. We just sat there and screamed after it was over. GAH.) Also, if anyone hasn't seen it, there is a scene after the credits. AND THE MOVIE IS OMG AND IS IT MAY YET? (Although, I have to see this one again, because I didn't understand all of it. I know there was a chest (not Elizabeth's) and a key and Johnny Depp and Emo!Will, but I missed a lot of details.)

Look! And undead monkey!

-Went back to my house for cake and talking and presents and this game Janeea bought me called Boxers or Briefs which is AMAZING.

I GOT DOMINOES. (Because Neea is awesome.)


Then the next day I drove up to Swanton for the weekend to visit Abby, who is also AMAZING and I love her, but since none of you really know her that well, I won't babble about that except to say that I taught her to play dominoes and she beat me 10 rounds in a row. While we watched The 10th Kingdom. And her parents are so cool.

And I saw Gladiator for the first time. Ah yes little bird, war is hell and I am studly.

Also, I DIDN'T GET LOST.

And they have actual swans in Swanton. Who knew?

Yesterday and Monday were pretty calm, hung out with Sarah and some Chinese food, went to Burlington yesterday and bought pretty things at Hot Topic, as always, and ate dinner at The Church Street Tavern, (which I also recommend) and ERIC DROVE HOME. Yikes.

And, that brings us up to today.

I know I'll remember more stuff I wanted to say later, but this is enough drivel for now I think.



OH! I FINALLY got the joke in The 10th Kingdom!!!

Tony: Where's the wood?
Virginia: We couldn't find any.
Tony: No wood? In the forest?
Wolf: *walks by*
Tony: You don't have any wood either!
Wolf: Yes, thank you.
Wolf's Tail: *sticks out of his pants obscenely*

See, I got that they didn't have any firewood because they'd been off having sex, and I got that his tail = his arousal, but I never knew why he said "Yes, thank you." And now I do. Because he didn't have any wood. In the pants area.

God, I am thick.
It's world slash appreciation day!

Seriously.

Look! http://www.july7th.tk/ !!!

Oh, and I just wanted to say that no matter how many times I watch "Pirates of the Caribbean" I still laugh really hard every time Will breaks the candleholder off the wall. Every time.
I look out the window in the summer and I marvel at the amount of green that I see. And my logical brain knows that in a few months, it will all be bare and white. But my poetical brain cannot fathom that this much green could go away. Then I look out the window in the winter and I see dead looking trees and bare bushes, and it's all white and brown. Now my logical brain knows that the plants are not dead and at some point it will all be green once more. But my poetical brain cannot comprehend the fact that it could ever be warm and green again.

Whenever I drive through Vermont and look at the scenery I think about this.

I went to Hot Topic today and got a shirt with Captain Jack Sparrow on it.
Now I can have Johnny Depp on my boobs anytime I want!
Johnny Depp won best actor! But see, he was filming Pirates of the Caribbean 2, so he had to accept the award on video.
So he says "I wanted to be there and accept this in person but as you can see I'm deep into research for Pirates of the Caribbean 2." (Waves fake plastic sword around)
According to my Dad I laughed like a hyena.
Ok. This posts in reverse order so you have to scroll down and read the last three backwards for the quotes to be in the right order. Moving on.

(I missed a few earlier)

Gibbs: Oh it's frightful bad luck bringin' a woman on board, Captain.
Jack: It'll be far worse not to, however.

Pirate: Damn to the depths whatever muttonhead thought up parley!
Jack: That would be the French.

Jack: Welcome to the Caribbean, Love.

Jack: That is the greatest song in the world. When I got the Pearl back, I'll teach it to the crew and we'll sing it, all the time.

Jack: Why is the rum gone?!?

Jack: Must be terrible for you Jack, must be terrible... Well it bloody well is now! (sees a boat on the horizon) There'll be no living with her after this.

Will: Where's Elizabeth?
Jack: She's safe, just like I promised. And, she's all set to marry Norrington, just like she promised. And, you get to die for her, just like you promised. So you see we're all men of our words, really. Except Elizabeth, who is, in fact, a woman.

Jack: I'll buy you a hat. A really big one.

Elizabeth: Bloody Pirates!

Jack: Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you have to watch out for, because you can never tell when they're going to do something incredibly, stupid.

Pirate: This is just like what the Greeks done at Troy; 'cept they was in a 'orse, 'stead a dresses. Wooden 'orse.

Elizabeth: You like pain? Try wearing a corset!

Jack: If you were waiting for the opportune moment, that was it.

Governor Swan: He's a pirate.
Will: And a good man.

Jack: Well I think we've all arrived at a very special place. Numerically, economically, grammatically. Elizabeth, it would never have worked between us. Will... nice hat.

Governor Swan: After all, he is a blacksmith.
Elizabeth: No. He's a pirate.

Jack: And really bad eggs. Drink up me hearties, yo ho!

Will: Swash Swash, Buckle Buckle!

Elizabeth: I've been shopping for something to wear. Or, shall I go bare breast and ankles all the way?

DONE! If you have any more comment and post them!
Jack: Not without my effects!

Jack: This girl. How far are you willing to go for her?
Will: I'd die for her.
Jack: No worries then.

Will: This is either madness, or brilliance.
Jack: It's amazing how often those two traits coincide.

Gilette: That's got to be the best pirate I've ever seen.
Norrington: So it would seem.

Will: You ignored the rules of engagement. In a fair fight, I'd kill you.
Jack: Well that's not much incentive for me to fight fair now is it?

Jack: Savvy?

Gibbs: I'll cut ya for breathin' ya slack jawed idiot! Jack! My first love!

Gibbs: Leaverage says you. I feel a change in the winds says I.

Pirate: Da captain says you'll be dinin' wiv him, and he requests you wear dis.
Elizabeth: Well you can tell the captain that I am disinclined to acquiesce to his request.
Pirate: He said you'd say dat. 'E also said dat if dat be da case, you'll be dinin' wiv da crew. And you'll be naked.

Anna Maria: You stole my boat!

Will: What did he use for rope?
Jack: Human hair. From my back.

Jack: You know, for having such a bleak outlook on pirates, you're well on your way to becoming one. You sprung a man from jail, commandeered a ship of the fleet, sailed with a buccaneer crew from Tortuga, and you're completely obsessed with treasure.
Will: That's not true. I'm not obsessed with treasure.
Jack: Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate.

Jack: Wll, I know it's hard for you, but please, don't do anything stupid!

Jack: Stop blowin' holes in my ship!

Jack: Monkey!

Barbosa: Why thankee Jack.
Jack: You're welcome.
Barbosa: Oh, not you. We named the monkey Jack.

Jack: Seeing as there's two of us, a gentleman would give us a pair of pistols.
Barbosa: It'll be one pistol as before, and you can be the gentleman, shoot the lady, and starve to death yourself.
Ok. Once upon a time I tried to put all the Pirates quotes in this journal. About halfway through the two pages of typing i hit the wrong button and lost the whole thing. So here goes, again. I have tried to keep these all in chronological order, but forgive any mistakes.

Captain Jack Sparrow: It's such a pretty boat. Ship.

Elizabeth: I can't breathe!

Soldier: I never would have thought of that.
Jack: Obviously you've never been to Singapore.

Norrington: No additional shot or powder, a compass that doesn't point North, (pulls out Jack's sword) and I half expected it to be wooden. You've got to be the worst pirate I've ever heard of.
Jack: But you have heard of me.

Will: You threatened Miss Swan!
Jack: Only a little.

Jack: Who makes all these?
Will: I do. And I practice with them three hours every day.
Jack: You need a girl mate. Or, perhaps the reason you practice three hours every day is that you've found a girl, and are otherwise incapable of wooing said strumpet. You're not a eunuch are you?

Will: You cheated.
Jack: Pirate!

Jack: You can do that forever; that dog's never going to move.
