I used to love Fraggle Rock. I hope that's true. I have only been sporadically posting because I'm really busy with work and studying for boards among other things these days. Anyway, Fraggle Rock...What were the little construction men called? I can't remember but they walked around with hard hats, happily working all day. ![]() [This message has been edited by MysteriousElphaba (edited 05-03-2006).] IP: Logged |

i just posted on the LOST board, and it reminded me of something i wanted to share with you all. first you must understand that i get scared VERY very easily. i cannot even watch the commercials for scary movies! seriously, i turn of the TV when they come on. now, i am very proud of myself for this, it was the first step in a long process. so i will take it little by little. silent hill wasnt too scary. and i'm reading LOST right now, so thats another step to getting over this thing. my final goal will be to watch the GRUDGE! before you say anything, i have heard it all! people have already told me that it was not that scary. what is not very scary to you, is TERRIFYING to me! i have never seen or heard the commercial for the grudge. i only know how it starts then i close my eys and plug my ears. i freaked out when they spoofed it in Scary Movie 4 (waste of money, dont go see it). so that will be my final goal. but yes, i wanted to share that i am on the path to becoming a braver person! hee hee!

quote: Helen....man....you need to stop copying me! I saw Silent Hill last weekend in the theater and I'm pleased with myself because I hate scary movies. Especially ones with ghosts. Yeah, I'm a wuss. I saw 'Thirteen Ghosts' with my boyfriend and cried like a little girl. But anyway, Silent Hill isn't scary per se, but if any of you are squeamish, be warned. In my opinion it's VERY graphic. Gross graphic. >:P But as I said, I'm a wuss. As for Scary Movie 4..blech. I think there were two funny parts in the whole movie.

quote: **HUG** Thank GOD! I thought I was the only person in the world that felt this way. However, I am not interested in becoming a braver person. So high fives to both you and SoulOverflowing, but you couldn't pay me money to sit in a theater and watch a scary movie. I prefer to remain wuss, thank you very much! IP: Logged |

PaN, you join us in our quest! go see silent hill, it really is not too bad. nothing jumps out at you!! that was the best part!! ya, SO...we are like long lost twins or something!! craz-ay!! IP: Logged |

SoulOverflowing Member |
PaN, what if it's a stupid scary movie, like Killer Clowns from Outer Space or Leprechaun? Those movies are hilarious and there's really nothing scary about them. My friends and I watch cheesy horror movies all the time because their so much fun to make fun of! Mystery Science Theater used to do that all the time. Awesome ![]() IP: Logged |

Ha ha! That's cool. I'm right smack dab in the middle of pisces, so I have no choice. But my sister's on the cusp of Libra and Scorpio and she does that. [This message has been edited by SoulOverflowing (edited 05-04-2006).] IP: Logged |

woops...just remembered that was illegal. *sigh* Not for me though, because I own the DVD sets. But I STRONGLY recomend the series "Popular" ~_^ [This message has been edited by ready2flywww (edited 05-04-2006).] IP: Logged |

quote: Um, that's great, I'm happy for you, all fears should be overcomed, hehehehe ![]() A word of advise: when you are ready for the grudge, watch first the one with sarah michelle gellar, and if you feel you can take it, then go for the original japanese movie (it is fenomenal!) I love everything scary, have been in love with vampires since i can remember, adore everything "gothic", etc... [This message has been edited by princess_jime (edited 05-04-2006).] IP: Logged |

[silly rant] Ok, so do you know what I hate (but secretly love at the same time)? When you see a really hot guy on the subway on the way home from work. Tall, backwards hat (though Yankees, I can forgive him 'cause he's hot), muscular physique (but not too muscular), slight facial hair on chin, strong jaw line, and, best of all, tattoos. So the two of you are totally checking each other out, and continuing to catch each other looking. And he gets off at the SAME STOP as you, so you know he can't live far. BUT! You know you'll probably never see him again! Gah! [/silly rant] (Does it make me a bad person that I have a boyfriend? Meh, look but don't touch and he's 400 miles away, so I'm frustrated if you catch my drift!) [This message has been edited by Plant a Note (edited 05-04-2006).] IP: Logged |

quote: Aww PaN, I know how you feel. I'm also taken, but it certainly doesn't stop me from looking. This may sound dumb, but my mom and I have this joke that if you ever see one of those really cute guys, but then obviously you're in a situation where you'll never see them again, that guy goes and lives in "Cute City" We're still trying to find it lol IP: Logged |

Oh Jesus. Can I just tell how all how much I love getting frightening text messages at 2:30 in the morning? Really, love it! So now I'm awake and not sure if I'll be able to fall back asleep, on a night I need it more than any other night! ![]() On a completely different note...... Helen, I'm with you on that one. I'm going to visit my boyfriend this weekend in the Jerz, and at this point, I don't know what I'm going to do without you guys the whole weekend.... :-\ IP: Logged |

quote: Wow, well, it's now three where you are, so I hope you're still not awake. And seeing as you may be here i'm just going to say that i've got up this morning - on the gorgeous morning - and i am absolutely miserable. And i don't know why. It makes no sence, i'm practically on the verge of tears... and there's nothing wrong. It makes no sense, i hate it when this happens. *is sad* *shrugs* Love you though. IP: Logged |

quote: Gosh, that's awful. I hope it doesn't happen often. If it's any consolation things have not been great in the Kingdom of Quox/Quok of late. Might I suggest (a) a walk in the sun, (b) listening to some music (1930s jazz is good, though I realise it's an acquired taste) and (c)gingerbread men. It usually works for me. Hope you feel happier soon! IP: Logged |

quote: Yeah... I was still awake unfortunately. I didn't really sleep well the rest of the night. Anyway, I love you too! Please keep your chin up. Just remember that someone in the world is always having a worse off day than you. (Either that'll make you feel better or worse, but I really hope it's the former.) *Smiles and hugs and kisses* IP: Logged |

hehe...funny story. I was on the phone at work helping a customer, and afterwards he said "thank you very much." Well, I often say either "you're welcome" or "no problem". But today, I combined the two and said "you're problem." IP: Logged |

quote: Sorry for two posts in a row.. I'm sorry Acey. I feel like that sometimes in the morning to, but I often find that by the late morning-early afternoon I'm peppier. It helps me to just get and out and do something I enjoy. Sometimes our emotions get a little out of whack, and it's usually because of something we're going through. If you're stressed or upset about something, try taking some time to yourself just to relax and let yourself replenish. Partake in some of your favorite hobbies. Drink some green tea.

Thanks guys. But i think i really should just be ignored when i get like this and just get over my cheap self. It's not even as if i've got anything to be upset about. Which makes it worse because then i realise i'm being selfish and ignorant. So yeah, just ignore me, and i'll shut up and go away. Love you all though! IP: Logged |

quote: You only get props, since I can't give you cookies or hugs, but you can feel warm and fuzzy knowing that you've won. *grins* I don't like scary movies. Either they're not scary, and then there's no point, or they are scary, and I get scared. Seems dumb to me. *grins* And, regarding leaving for a couple days, I was totally missing you all while I was dancing in circles to the Backstreet Boys in a Chinese hotel parking lot. SO, jasmine tea is so much better than green tea. It's not even funny. Acey, if you're drinking Asian tea, it should be jasmine. *grins* I love jasmine tea. It's so nice. AND...Nikki needs to post a random comment so that everybody will reply with random comments. That is - the comments I've posted already aren't random enough. ?? My mom had Michael Buble on her mp3 player and didn't tell me. I listened to it. I like his voice. AND... French toast is nice. Americans eating French toast in the middle of China. Hmm... But it doesn't really count because the bread here is not very good. IP: Logged |
