Okay 1) I have said forever that This Is A Blog About the Power of Friendship and I'm delighted that your subconscious understands this fact and

2) This was years ago now, but I did actually lose Snake in a Target one time. It took me a whole day of retracing my steps, mostly around campus, before I finally asked the person at guest services if anyone had found "a, um, action figure?"

And they went "Oh! You mean this guy?" and held up Snake.

I made him wear a rubber band and carbiner harness for about a year after that, and always had him clipped to something. Recreation of harness:

"This is completely unnecessary."

:( do you at least have an appeal button? I just had review and appeal buttons show up today. nothing approved yet but at least the buttons are here

1. favourite song: OK THIS IS A BIG QUESTION BUT right now it's "'79 aka the shouty track" by lemon jelly. 2. favourite album: again, all-time favorite is an impossible question for me, but at the moment it's the glow pt. 2 by the microphones (i got both those answers by looking at my last.fm, for the record) (i literally am incapable of answering the "favorite" questions when it comes to music because i love so much goddamn music. fun fact i once developed a crush on a dude mainly because he tossed his hair and asked me so what are your top five bands lately?) (i'm a fuckin sucker) 4. last song you heard on the radio: oh my god it was that awful song by fun. that goes TONIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT WEEEEEEEE AHHHHHHHHRE YOUNG, it played when my coworker drove me home 5. least favorite song: i have an irrational hatred for "jack and diane" 6. least favorite album: this is a very silly question, why would i listen to an entire album of music i dislike 7. least favourite artist: most of the music i dislike, i am not the target demographic, so it seems silly to hate on it, ya know? but that justin bieber doesn't seem like a very nice person at all, nope.

I glared at my test for 20 minutes before turning it in hoping that I would somehow remember the questions I left blank. It didn't work.

was the hindenburg disaster long enough ago that i can reblog a picture of it and tag it "GPO me taking my final exam"?
