Dear rabid fangirls and fanboys. RESTRAINING ORDER.

[squishyturtle]

I finally got my Journey of the Childmen dvd, JUUUST in time before class starts on Thursday. Excellent! Well worth the money, and all the boys were amazing, hilarious, their conversations should be dipped in liquid gold and made into ornaments. And Mike, always my favourite. <3

I agree that most of the fans go way too far. I just can't imagine acting that crazy. Do they think the boys are going to react positively to that? Hopefully they are getting some rest from all the crazy fans right now.

I'm not gonna lie, if I got that close I would probably wee myself a little and I would probably have a cry about it later, but there's no way I'd go crazy in front of them. I mean you can tell it's irritating them, and rightly so. Which is hardly encouraging them to make more - thanks for all the hard work, now we're going to make your lives miserable!

Hopefully the crazy ones are a minority :\

1) This DVD ain't available here in the US; seems like the best I can do is a region-free PAL DVD through Amazon UK. I don't think my machine will play PAL -- you have PAL, yes? I'm stuck with NTSC.

2) How much of it is about the rabid fans? I don't think I want to see that. It sounds well depressing. You're absolutely right about what's our toys and what isn't.

3) You have a life-size David Tennant poster?? :D

4) When it comes to contact with adored celebrities, I will go out of my way to avoid it. I got an autograph from one once -- in a proper autograph line at a convention -- and yes, cried in my car for nearly an hour afterward.

Haha, hi there stranger, just got your email. That is retarded, lj should pull its head out of its arse

[doctorpancakes]

YUP. Thankfully, I'd been warned about those bits, but seriously. I wanted to punch some of those people in the cock.

Other than that, oh Gosh that whole film just made me want to hug them all. Hugs and hugs and hugs and hugs and hugs.

But like totally in a respectful and uncreepy way.

[squishyturtle]

THIS. That is exactly it! I wanted to punch them right in the cock.
Right in their snotty, teary faces. SAVE THAT SHIT FOR YOUR BEDROOM WHERE NO ONE CAN SEE YOU WEEPING AND SPOONING AN AUTOGRAPHED PICTURE.

Oh god, so agreed. So much love for them. I tried not to rewatch because I don't want to use up all the lols in one go by watching it 8 times, but there were some bits I just had to. (In the car! With the bikes? WE ARE 30 YARDS AHEAD OF YOU AT ALL TIMES. WE ARE THE WIN WINS. And Mike, with the microphone in the bread (like, whaaat, I don't even know). Also Julian shaving was... damn. <333333

IN A TOTALLY RESPECTFUL AND UNCREEPY WAY.

[doctorpancakes]

Yup.

It's like, if someday I had some reason to like have a dinner party with those chaps and eat soup and shoot the shit, that would be lovely, but I wouldn't scream at them and try to molest them and stuff because I've had creepy people try to molest me at my job often enough that I know how upsetting and unfun it is, even if they just really REALLY wanted me to know how much they liked my new hair colour.

The other day a guy came in and told me I smell just like roses. He was really adamant about it. If anything, I smelled like bookdust/paint/grapefruit hand soap? It was hilarious.

XD <3

You're in charge of not letting me become a psycho fangirl. That said, if I ever met David Tennant, you know I would wet my little knickers. (I still remember us bouncing on the couch for the season 3 finale, and as soon as it finished we were like AGAIN).

Its kind of frightening. I went to an afterparty for their Future Sailors tour and the girls there were just...yeah. Look, I have to say that if I was a little less drunk there might have been some homicides amongst the bint brigade. Mind you, the bouncers DID cherry pick a few of those exact same slags for another, slightly more private afterparty at their hotel. Horridy!

I have to confess that I *did* ask Julian for a photo that night because it was a fan event and an appropriate time to ask (I'd never ever bother someone in the street, its just too intrusive). He replied asking would I mind if we didnt because hed been in a photo shoot all day and he was sick of having his picture taken and I said ok because I get it must suck. Then I got a kiss on the cheek for being understanding :-P SCORE. Plus I got loads of nice shots from the pit. They are really lovely to their fans, is all I can say ;-)

[squishyturtle]

Eeewww, after-after-party slags. That's just tasteless man.

Oh. Em. GEE. You got a kiss on the cheek?! That is SO EXCITING. But see, that's exactly it - at a public event it's fair enough. I mean I want people to go gaga over them, they're amazing. I just don't get why people don't see the boundaries (ie don't grab strangers and don't interrupt their day to day lives). Oh, that is so lovely, asking you not to and then a little cheeky cheek action. Proof being respectful pays off!

EEEE I can't get over it now, that is SO AWESOME. I would have gone home and had a cry.

[coeur_de_noir]

Yeah dude. I didnt realise at the time but one of the girls I met there and ended up being facebook mates with after I got home told me about it (she got picked). Pretty disgusting

[squishyturtle]

SO SO SO JEALOUS. I am so in love with London, let alone getting to see them in London!

Oh my god, I want details of what she told you - what happened?? Sounds like a kickass story.

I love that Julian's in front of the 'essential romance' sign - so appropriate <3 XD And Noel man, that last one's insane, he's like electro Jesus, surrounded by his sparkly apostles. Tell me more! (Write me your gospel in the boosh bible, to over extend that metaphor)

SOOO JEALOUS, I don't even have words.
