Nah, I mean the part just before that--the buzzy strings with the mournful little piano bit, before it goes into "Clar de lune."

(sorry, my language for describing non-pop music isn't too sophisticated. though i'm sure some would say the same for my language for describing pop music too...)

Sounds like Thomas Newman, maybe American Beauty.

i had to mute the sound on that video

― madame boo berry (donna rouge), Tuesday, 8 May 2012 16:21 (eleven years ago) link
noteworthy things in my life lately:
- i had a derby party at my apt last weekend and it was superfun- made a shit-ton of chicken and spanish rice last night- bf still rules/is adorable- just watching a lot of tv otherwise- more or less that's it
― madame boo berry (donna rouge), Tuesday, 8 May 2012 16:25 (eleven years ago) link

I saw that corey was taking a break from the interwebs on FB but that mighta been 2 months ago.

Corey got rid of his computer. It's a very Corey thing - arbitrary self-deprivation. I don't see how he manages to do school work since so many (maybe most) assignments are issued, completed, and submitted via Blackboard only. Seems like a pain in the ass to be tethered to the school computer lab.

I've found there to be so much cross-pollination between the loci of gay, cinephile and horror fan.

Keeping away is not the same as requesting to be banned.
― Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 9 May 2012 16:46 (eleven years ago) link
I passively requested to be banned here once and seem to remember being told that it would only hold for 24 hours or 3 days or something like that.
― jungleous butterflies strange birds (Eric H.), Wednesday, 9 May 2012 16:47 (eleven years ago) link
in the throes of grad school i thought about asking to be banned. sort of wish i had in retrospect

It was nothing against ILX, he just wanted to be offline *completely*. Like I said, he got rid of his computer.

Except that he still communicates by mobile phone and text message.
Though, really, is it *communication*? Think abt it.

I'm quietly holding polls open until I get a ballot from Morbs or, alternately, he lets me know it ain't happening. So jump on it.

Standing outside a packed straight bar with friends last night, I was accosted by a wild-eyed drunk Croat who brought me over to his two friends -- a Hispanic who may have been a former or current lover and a blond very bro native-born American. Croat asks tentatively if I've a girlfriend or...a boyfriend? When I assure him I'm gay he hugs me tight and babbles about how cute I am, how nice I seem, and so on. He might've been cute himself but his sloppy state made it hard. We exchanged phone numbers and I returned to my circle.
Half an hour ago he sends me a text. I'm thinking of responding. Guess which in his group I was most attracted to though...

― Impetuous hybrid (Matt P), Saturday, 12 May 2012 18:07 (eleven years ago) link
or maybe it's a trick question and the answer is the Croat

no -- the straight or straight-acting dude.
When in doubt, always choose the straight or straight-acting one.
― jungleous butterflies strange birds (Eric H.), Saturday, 12 May 2012 18:11 (eleven years ago) link
That's MY jam, anyway.
i'm only straight-acting when i'm sad.
― Impetuous hybrid (Matt P), Saturday, 12 May 2012 18:20 (eleven years ago) link
there are so many straights to act you gotta jazz it up with things like spandex
― Impetuous hybrid (Matt P), Saturday, 12 May 2012 18:22 (eleven years ago) link
non-ironic spandex!
― Impetuous hybrid (Matt P), Saturday, 12 May 2012 18:23 (eleven years ago) link
Only straight hipsters wear spandex.

I went out last night and danced very gay at a straight club that usually has some homo-presence, but it was total heterosexuville there. When a guy finally hit on me very late, he was so far from my type it wasn't funny.
― The Reverend, Saturday, 12 May 2012 19:46 (eleven years ago) link
you sure it was a guy?
― Exile in lolville (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Saturday, 12 May 2012 19:54 (eleven years ago) link
he was a very aggro-looking white dude
― The Reverend, Saturday, 12 May 2012 19:58 (eleven years ago) link
