when I grow up I want to be a professional bum

[angelgazing]

Random thing I suddenly want like I want to continue breathing of the day: A Puck/Kurt "Can't Buy Me Love" AU. No, no, seriously. Stop laughing at me! Kurt would totally be Patrick Dempsy! Only instead of paying Puck to pretend to be his boyfriend to get popular, he does it to get back at Puck for being a homophobic jackass. He's a Cheerio, he's already popular. Jesus, he's more popular than Puck, and it's not like the football players aren't terrified enough of Sue to leave him alone on uniform days. But Puck needs money, and Kurt needs to prove a point. And maybe keep his new bad ass reputation and McQueen collection both living in harmony. Well, maybe need isn't the right word. Double-sided manipulation ftw! And, of course, fake!boyfriends falling in love.

Why this fic does not exist in my life right now I will never, ever, ever know.

Anyway, I've been seeing this around on my f-list, and I've got a bunch of new people around these parts lately ( ::waves:: ), so it seems like a good time for a meme:

I know very little about some of the people on my friends list. Some people I know relatively well. But here's a thought: why not take this opportunity to tell me a little something about yourself. Any old thing at all. Just so the next time I see your name I can say: "Ah, there's so and so...she likes office supplies." I'd love it if every single person who friended me would do this. (Yes, even you people who I know really well. Then post this in your own journal. In return, ask me anything you'd like to know about me and I'll give you an answer.)

Hey! I need that list!

I've never seen "Can't Buy Me Love", but I'm a sucker for fake!boyfriends falling in love <3 Can we bribe anyone to write it?

Random stuff about me:
I think bees are the cutest animal ever, but wasps terrify me.
My dream job would be drawing illustrations for children books.
I am allergic to mint.
I prefer swimming in a lake than in the sea.

Fake!boyfriends falling in love is one of my favorite things ever. I could read nothing but those stories for the rest of time and be happy. I don't know anyone I can bribe into writing it, though, which makes me very, very sad.

From what I've seen of your art you could totally do children's books. That would be amaaaazing. Though it does make me think of a Frank/Gerard fic I read once. ♥

I... do not know how to swim. It's a fact about me that horrifies many.

I was planning on commenting just to tell you that I both laughed at you and want that fic to happen (fake boyfriends falling in love is one of my favourite tropes).

But then I saw the meme, and I love this idea so I might as well add something to it.
Just a random fact, I am apparently trying to take over the world and am keeping the plans from everyone, including myself.

Oh and my favourite colour is purple :)

I'm definitely stealing this by the way, it's a fun meme.

Fake boyfriends falling in love is the best. It cannot be beat!

LOL It's never a good idea to keep your plans for world domination from yourself, you know. It never turns out well when the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing. Just look at Fight Club. (But don't talk about it.)

I used to have a room painted purple! Now my bedroom is part purple. It's oddly calming. :D

You should write me some fake!boyfriends in a fandom I actually read. I like cliche fic! (especially, there's only one room with one bed left! or we have to get out of these wet clothes! Or nightswimming!) And bantery bffs who fall in love. Unrequited love that becomes requited. I also like sangria.

Fake!boyfriends wouldn't work in any of the fandoms you read! Except maybe White Collar. And then El would be all left out and that would make both of us sad. Though she'd probably just laugh at Peter a lot. He'd be so cranky. And Neal's eyes would do some evil sparkle thing, and he'd try to hold Peter's hand in public just for the look on his face.

I love all of those cliches! All of them! There are not enough of any of these stories. I don't think there ever could be.

I have a bit of a weird compulsion about food, in which stuff has to be eaten somewhat symmetrically. So like, if I'm eating a hotdog, I have to bit off the ends first, likewise with tacos; burgers I have to eat all around first and the same for sandwiches. This sounds so crazy written down!

Oh well. It could be worse I guess, I could count bites!

[angelgazing.livejournal.com]

I DO THE EXACT SAME THING.

I get sooo many weird looks from people who aren't used to eating with me, but I can't help it! When I have waffles, they have to be cut along the lines. All around, so that they end up as a square.

So... I'm going to go with: No, no, totally not crazy!
