God, you two are sensitive! All I'm doing is implying some kind of ugly sordid sexual liaison. I'd be proud of that sort of thing.

Listen, I'm unemployed and consuming wine if you must know. As long as I don't exceed the number of posts I posted during the Golden Globes, I'm sure there's nothing to worry about.

A video just for Alex!



I think there's a reason we never saw that video. Other than the usual "MTV blows donkeys." Someone had a face for radio...

And dude, I watched that SOS video...the kitchen ISN'T YELLOW. Like, the next room is. A whole kitchen painted yellow due to a mis-remembered Erasure video. Awesome.

Oh no you didn't. I can't even watch past the first fifteen SECONDS. XD OH MY GOD MY EYES. And what is with that lame drunk dance of his? Were they too horrified to tell him??

HA! no way! The kitchen isn't yellow?? Shit. Well, in my dreams it's yellow. Dammit. (...Don't they want a yellow kitchen in Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House? or maybe one is mentioned in Miracle on 34th Street? I'm just sayin' we were programmed early to see [covet] yellow kitchens where there weren't any.)

Is it white? XD

*toasts you*

I loved that song back in the day. Don't tell anyone...

Alex: His dance rules.

Yeah, the kitchen is totally white. I guess I was too excited watching him (kind of) chop oranges? And badly at that. Then he grocery shopped. Then it was back to angsty waiting at home. Then getting knocked over by married couple in street. All these things went so well together.

Daveyyo: omfg, someone else who even KNOWS the song in the first place. ESPECIALLY another native...

That's ok, I still kinda love that song...uh, nostalgia, you know...

Oi. That song still rules. ♥

Yeah, lmao... SOS was just kind of the Random Faux Day in the Life of Andy Video as... so many of them were. XD

(Damn, where did the yellow kitchen come from? XD A Year in Provence? Some TV show? As Time Goes By?)

I don't know who else claims a yellow kitchen but I have hardcore memories of being 12, watching SOS and thinking, "That yellow kitchen shall be mine."

My brain sees what it wants. I can't stop it. Apparently.

I haven't seen the video but I love the song.

I was going to go for a pumpkin color for the kitchen, but it didn't seem quite right. Now I know why. It's supposed to be yellow XD

Mmm...pumpkin. Pumpkin would be nice, too. With some cinnamon...oh wait, we're talking paint. Would be a good second, though...
