okay, so I just finished watching the latest episode of Being Human.
Tell me I wasn't the only one who cried aww shoot
Also (I don't think it's too spoilery to say this much outside of cut?): Gilbert is my favorite new character of the year so far. Even if I'm not much into 80's music and Nietzsche. I especially like how he used the leaf while dancing XD

meme questions from
acidpenguin46:
1) What is one food that you can never get enough of?
Just one food?
Chocolate, salmon, Ligo sardines, good cannoli with real ricotta, good gnocchi, flan, raspberries, fresh peaches, pluots, sinigang with good tamarind…
I really like food.
2) Your life suddenly turns into a musical, where every word you hear is spoken in song and even your friends page reads like a lyric website. How do you react?
This is most of my life already, save for the friends page business. I'm only partly kidding. I THINK IN MUSICAL NUMBERS
How would I react? I would sing and dance along, chuckling a bit here and there.
3) You're trapped in a tiny room with one person or object of your choice. Who or what is it, and what purpose will they serve for the period of time you're spent confined in that room?
I really want to grow an orchid for some reason. I remember seeing orchids since I was little and thinking “what is that crazy flower?” So I guess the room has a small hole with dirt and I have to learn how to tame the orchid fungus or something. I want a really cool one with some black in it. I remember first hearing about the black orchid in some cheap syndicated jungle action-adventure show. I’ve been fascinated ever since.
Or I could at least have my zebrina plant Ophelia back.
4) Do you have a favourite number, and if you do is there a story behind it, or is it just a random number?
16. Ever since I was four years old. Something about the numbers just seemed right for each other. Now I know about the certain references the two numbers possess, but to me it’s something about the red numbers being on a white background.
5) You find a dumpster baby. What do you do with it?
Find a responsible parent through organizations
RAISE HIM OR HER IN THE WAYS OF THE NINJA

yaiyah. 7 songs you like. I received the letter "R."
Reach Out - Music Go Music
I've posted this song twice already, but if you haven't heard it, please give it a try. It is ABBA meets Black Mountain, people! I dare you not to sing along and pump your fist to this!
there is a fire in me
I burn w empathy
dear let compassion reign
call out my name
and face the flame!
Ready For the Floor (live on Jimmy Kimmel) - Hot Chip
pleasant electronic pop
Rich - the Yeah Yeah Yeahs
raw and dirty yay
Riders in the Sky(A Cowboy Legend) - Peggy Lee
One time, a local radio station played at least half a day of covers of this song. Each one was awesome.
Run, Pig, Run - Queens of the Stone Age
I like the high tension atmosphere in this.
Rosier - High and Mighty Color
Luna Sea cover. I like how it's both peppy J-pop and grr metal at once. Cute melody too.
Radio mix - Olga Tañon
Mix of most of the big hits of the merengue singer. Gets all the best parts while dispensing with most (though, sadly, not all) of the twinkly production parts.

finally, congrats to Miro for getting two goals! I saw the highlights and he did a backflip yay!
now, if only my actual teams would do better...

2009-02-09 16:53 (UTC)So, this Being Human. It seems I need to watch it.
no subject
2009-02-09 17:31 (UTC)it's pretty good, really balances the supernatural with the everyday. I'm sure you must have heard about the original pilot somewhere on your flist (-points to original Mitchell in icon-), but the full series version, even with recasts, is working well too. If you have any more questions about the show, I'd be happy to answer

2009-02-10 00:37 (UTC)What's with Bambi's eyebrow? Is it permanently stuck up there? Wardrobe is obviously trying to make him look like a classy posh detective but failing on its face. I can see chest hair and bling bling. And bad hair. What.
I'd still watch man. LOL
