still a Late Nineties Teen...

i was reading a page of guilty pleasure movies, a top ten list. number six on his list was "can't hardly wait."

i have to agree. it was a bad movie, definitely an archetypal Late Nineties Teen Movie, but that was the beauty of it. i don't remember a whole heck of a lot about the movie itself (in fact, i don't remember beans about the plot except for the fact that there was an alcohol-soaked high school party scene, just like in every other Late Nineties Teen Movie), but what i do remember is how much i loved the soundtrack.

it was a Late Nineties Teen Movie...complete with a soundtrack chock full of music that i listened to as a Late Nineties Teen. i think i saw that movie on an outing one afternoon from nerd camp, and probably annoyed the heck out of everyone else in the theatre by singing along to the entire movie. third eye blind was in there...blink 182 was in there...that movie introduced me to an amazing little british band known as feeder...smash mouth was in there, one of those Archetypal Late Nineties Bands that i didn't even like, but they were on the radio so much that i knew all the words to all their songs anyway.

everyone says the late nineties were so generic. they're probably right...but i want them back anyway. i'm going to be an old lady, but still the quintessential child of the late nineties. that era's soundtrack backed my coming of age. that was the era when i became who i am, and years later i still find myself unable to leave it.

april fools!

usually memes don't make me laugh like a complete idiot. this one did.

i'm not insane...wink wink...

i am bathing in the silly this morning.

first:

i have a demented mash-up of "come on jenny" by 19 wheels and "torn apart" by stabbing westward ringing in my head. the songs have nothing to do with each other, but somehow the mash-up makes musical sense. silly brain.

second:

i'm not really a part of any sort of fandom (except to the extent that college mock trial or perjuries has or is a fandom...and i can see the comparison)...but this entry from metaquotes made me laugh. a lot. it's "50 Rules for Hogwarts." some of my favourite parts?

"12. House elves are not acceptable replacements for Bludgers."

"17. Seamus Finnegan is not "after me Lucky Charms"."

"27. I am not a tribble Animagus."

and, the shiniest of the shiny:

"33. I will stop asking the Arithmancy teacher what the square root of -1 is."
