dim sum! little fiddly shrimp things! meeting people! awesome!

[mimesere]

So, I just got back from meeting goluxexmachina for dim sum in Chinatown (it ended like, four hours ago, but some of that time I spent reading Ass Bandits of the Caribbean and giggling to myself. Um. Look. It's an "erotic romance" with a m/f/m threesome set in the Caribbean. Of *course* I was going to read it. ANYWAY.

goluxexmachina is awesome and there were little fiddly things with shrimp in and bao (mmmm) and then there was boba and then there was a guy being hit with sticks for fun and profit (no, really). ooh, also, General Mao emblazoned backpacks. And and the cutest shirts I have EVER seen in my life. Sadly, they were sized to fit ten year olds and thus I do not have a shirt with a picture of a heart (an actual heart, like, the organ and not the other kind) that says "I keep the beat." or one with a picture of a liver that says, "I'm a liver, not a fighter." There were also shirts that made me think of fox1013 in that way where the shirts were like, black and covered in purple glitter and said, "How the Grinch Stole Christmas." Also, I now have a wee Superman action figure/sculpted...doohickey to put on my desk at DQ Headquarters. He can join my BE rogue, my Orc shaman, my undead lock, and my dwarf warrior. The dwarf could be a paladin, I don't know. He's got some kickin' armor. And then! Then! I will have an action figure of that dude with the wings. My desk will be so decorated, y'all. I think I might bring Norrington to live with Supes. And Crankypants King Eomer. There will be a glorious tableau of asskicking for justice!

Things discussed included an AU where Hillary Clinton was part of the 70s punk scene; FOB as Lilo (Patrick), Stitch (Pete, by his own admission), Nani (Andy), and David (Joe); my continuing dissatisfaction with fictional portrayals of LA; and how vampires and Chinatown do not mix. Ooh, also, we discussed zombies, ghosts, and vampires in terms of class divisions. Things seen also include a pair of boys reenacting "Crank That". Here, have a bonus Soulja Boy link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=RKQgDY0pZ68 "Crank That (Travis Barker remix)". I don't normally find Travis Barker to be hot, but damn that man can drum so well that I forgive him for being kind of scary. Also? Mark Hoppus *clearly* got the better deal in the Blink 182 divorce.

I think I'm going to put up some holiday rock songs and a Brief Guide To Why I (Mostly) Unironically Like Fall Out Boy's Music. ZOMG DAY AFTER TOMORROW.

Also, it is *goddamn freezing* in my room. You would assume that this would cause me to close my window, but you would be wrong. Instead I just put on sweatpants and a (garishly pink) fleece hoodie.

and only somewhat of a gratuitous icon post. *points* thelionforreal made this for me from the BEST COMMERCIAL IN THE HISTORY OF EVER. Oh, Mr. T. Who knew that you could outawesome Bill Shatner in the Being a Snarky Dork sweeepstakes?

I have SUCH a hard time seeing him as a night elf.

Hee! I said pretty much the exact same thing when I saw that video.

*G* I mean, I don't *hate* Angels and Airwaves, but I so completely associate Tom DeLong's voice with Blink that every time I hear it, I keep going, "Why doesn't this band rock as hard as Blink, Tom? Why's that? I know, it's because TRAVIS BARKER CHOSE MARK."

And then I laugh sort of meanly and go listen to Blink 182 and +44.

So uhhh, was that book any good? (Good being bad in a good way) Cuz I'm debating, uhh, not reading it.

[mimesere.livejournal.com]

I didn't actually get to any naughty bits yet, so I'm not sure. I will update once I've hit those since, uh, well, no one should be reading that book for the prose.

Shatner's would have been better if he started going....."Frost Shock!!!"

*giggles* I've been watching these commercials for a week and giggling every time anyone says, "Night elf mohawk." It's pavlovian at this point.
