Catch me if you can...
Thursday, 6 August 2009 10:32 pmWell, bugger me sideways.
The video is actually better than the song! This is both shocking (because, y'know: track record=not good) and not (because, y'know: I fucking loathe that track).
I felt that old rush of love I used to feel a few years ago, and slightly fangirly in a way I haven't since before Hurley broke the fourth wall and started trying to get me to introduce him to people I've known for ages. :|
Patrick, who shall henceforth be known as the Bird Man of Boatcatraz, is precious. We knew this, I understand, but he has made sure that we are aware that he's still on his game. Also: still ageing backwards. By the time the next album comes out, the fourteen year olds asking him to marry them are going to be going on the paedo register.
But. But. The giggle - the genuine giggle that you couldn't have scripted, you guys! So precious! Patrick Stump will alwaysover produce your record SAVE THE DAY. For serious.
Okay. All excited out, now, need to lie down. Too old for this shit.

Oh, bandom. I'm facepalming so hard at you right now.
This bullshit is going to do nothing except - if it gets any acknowledgement whatsoever - make Fall Out Boy fans look like bigger tossers than we're already taken for and result in the gosshit mongers claiming that Pete is getting his fans to start a vendetta against the magazine because he doesn't like how he's portrayed.
He is the one who will get more shit for the fans' behaviour and made to look like even more of a villain. Smart. That's totally going to help and make him want to come back to the internet, isn't it?
Grow up.
If this article is taken so far out of context, how come it's largely things they've said before and didn't complain about then? Patrick probably leaves the band on a weekly basis when he throws a tantrum. Andy is ridiculously obsessed with the Packers and has a huge temper; he's not nuts (well, alright - maybe a little bit, in a lovable way), but I don't think it was ever meant to be taken that seriously. Pete wasn't portrayed all that badly, really - no worse than in any other article and especially not in his interaction with Ashlee; that was adorable - and Joe has ALWAYS been this little emo thing. Go read his ancient teenage posts where he wants to Nair his face and complains that nobody wants to date him because he's too nice. He's always been adorably neurotic. I do feel really bad for him that he apparently feels that way about the band - the comments on AP.net should be evidence enough that we think he's amazing - and I've been saying he was getting a raw deal for nearly two years. But maybe this, if nothing else, will hold up that mirror that says, "Yeah, okay - maybe we need to take a look at how we do things around here." If AP is anything to go by, Joe and Patrick have already had that conversation and are working on it.
The kid deserves more credit and more of a chance to be involved, end of story.
Is it the best article ever written? No. Is writing to KANYE FUCKING WEST going to help? No. It's going to make you, me, Pete and everyone else look like a complete prat.
Just chill out. Pete is sulking; he'll be back. He always is. John Mayer is probably cuddling him as we speak.
Seriously. UNNECESSARY DRAMZ. Pls to be stopping nao.

Wednesday, 12 November 2008 01:57 amDear Patrick,
This is how to use your amazing voice properly. YOU NAILED THIS. No Mariahing. Just singing. Just using your fucking range the way it should be used.
I just fell in love with your voice again.
Please, please, please remember how you did this.
Lovelovelove,
Rosie.
PS. This sounds so much like Kate Bush it's surreal. She's my aunt's cousin, you know.

Saturday, 28 June 2008 09:05 pmJesus Christ. Fandom has got to the stage where Pete holding up a Patrick plushie for the camera is some how homoerotic.
HE'S JUST FUCKING HOLDING THE DOLL! IT'S A DOLL! NOT A PERSON! IT DOESN'T MATTER IF HE STARTS HUMPING IT, IT STILL WOULDN'T MEAN THEY'RE FUCKING!
*head desk* If you're going to hunt for 'evidence' at least make it in some way believable, kids.
