    Whatever, I'm just saying that Tim saying that I shouldn't miss the 1980's is pretty ridiculous, and I know I'm right on that one.

    I grew up in the blue-collar suburbs, and I grew up locking my doors and all that. Crime is definitely around, and you're always kind of looking over your shoulders. Newark, Delaware was once the heroin capital of the East Coast. That was the interesting thing about living in Western P.A. for two years- people there definitely didn't seem as concerned about crime there.

    Right. I was going with Cody because Trevor Donovan is 33, but then again ages don't really matter. It's kind of hard to find actors that rock the whole straight, long bohemian lock, so I went with guys I knew had long hair. LOL. I still think Cappie is totally how I picture that guy's college personality.

    Whatever, Tim. The point to all of this was that I grew up in and around 80's culture, and damn it, I feel entitled to miss the 1980's because I DID experience them.

    Chapter 46

    methodwriter85 commented on Mark Arbour's story chapter in Chapter 46

    Would a surfer guy really care that much about a guy's hair being long? Wouldn't Will actually lean more towards liking longer hair on guys, given that's what he grew up around?

    I had a really good therapist when I was 22. What made him good was that he was willing to call me on all my crap, which helped a lot. A good therapist can make all the difference - I'm glad Will's getting one. So, we're going to be immersed in JJ's figure skating world. I'm hoping he'll turn into a major rage diva throughout.

    I read Mark's description of Will's new therapist, and I thought immediately, "an adult Cappie from Greek." Whenever I see Scott Michael Foster, I keep thinking, "Good-looking guy but he needs a haircut."

    77 games suspended? Isn't that like 5 years or something? Damn.

    I watched a plethora of gay movies when I was coming to terms with being gay at the age of 14/15. Some films from that time that I really liked were Trick, Get Real, and Wild Reeds. Bedrooms and Hallways is another good mention- I don't think I saw it until later, but it's from that era. More recent films I've liked were Weekend and Were the World Mine.

    You just proved Tim wrong. Hallelujah. This whole "debate", if you will, comes from this whole YouTube comment war between kids of the 90's vs. kids of the 2000's. People who've set up . Those kids are striking back by saying that they still relate to a 90's childhood. It's kind of fascinating, really- who claims ownership to a 90's childhood, and if there's any real way of measuring that. I personally relate to both 80's kids(I remember growing up with the , sisters that had , , Ruff , , etc) and to 90's kids ( , Are You Afraid of the Dark?, , , , electronic pets, etc). So I figure, if someone born in 1996 can call themselves a 90's kid, why can I call myself a cross between an 80's kid and a 90's kid?

    [media=] [/media] Harry Potter fanaticism. Dear God, that's going to be fun to relive. We already know Marie is a big Harry Potter fan. I remember in 8th grade being made to play Hagrid once, and in 10th grade running into a Happy Birthday Harry Potter event at Borders. And one time looking up Emma Watson's birth year as my guy friends freshmen year of college couldn't stop drooling over her and wanted to know if she was legal. And then, of course, as the video indicates, Twilight fanaticism. That'll also be fun. And Courtney is just about the right age to get really into the Twilight craze. I'm assuming Riley will wind up a massive Hunger Games fan. Although the Hunger Games really manages to appeal to people of just about every age.

    Oh, god, yes, that would be frickin' hilarious! The mental image of JJ drinking himself into oblivion after failing to get Olympic Gold in '06 would be pretty funny.

    I lived in the Greater Pittsburgh area for two years, and it was amazing to me just how different the dialect was there as opposed to what it's like in the Great Philadelphia area. People saying "pop" instead of "soda". People saying "needs done" instead of "needs to be done." And so on and so forth. The Pittsburgh accent cracked me up. I'll definitely miss it.

    Actually, I can't really see Brad or Robbie freaking out that much about a tattoo. They don't really freak out about stuff like that. I could see Yearbook or Drama Club for JJ.

    Ooooh, that's a good one. I like that. He probably would worship the Quiksilver brand.

    This video is incredibly apropos to this thread. I get really annoyed when people post about how much they love God on Facebook. I'm totally guilty of posting pictures of food.

    What do you think of the Philly accent? It's well-studied- it's considered unique to the East Coast because we don't drop the R's.

    Right, I was thinking of when JJ is Disney JJ, not if/when he goes all dark!JJ. Good point. Maybe JJ can go on a three-day bender for his 21st birthday and wind up with a tattoo that he has no idea where it came from. LOL. While this plays in the background...

    My Two Dads... You gotta love obscure 80's sitcoms.

    You're really kind of conservative in terms of how you think people should dress and look, aren't you? I grew up around a bunch of attention-whore performing arts kids who wanted attention at every turn, so wild dress doesn't really phase me much. Anyway, here's another Trevor Donovan picture: He's definitely got the pretty boy blond look in spades. It was ridiculous buying him as a teenager on 90210, but you couldn't deny the man was hot. His nickname at Television Without Pity was "Hot Gay Grandpa."

    Well, I didn't say they'd get hugely tatted up, just that I think small tattoos that can be covered up easily are pretty likely. Hell, I know girls who want to get into the museum field that have several small, visible tattoos on their bodies. And I think that as more and more people who grew up in this era(re: the sheer amount of preppy frat guys I've seen with tattoos) move into prominent white collar positions, it's going to be less and less of a stigma. The only person I can't see doing it would be JJ, because of his whole need to have a Disney-friendly clean-cut boy-next-door image.

    I thought pink polos were very popular in the 1980's? The whole pastel color palette being encouraged by Don Johnson and Miami Vice.

    This is probably my favorite tribute to an accent: It seems like the key to a SoCal accent is everything comes out like a question, you know?
  24. methodwriter85
    Is it really that big of a deal to like pink? I remember back in 2004/2005 guys were wearing pink shirts all of the time. I even remember one shirt that said "Real Men Wear Pink."
