Lava Lamp

[COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Tahoma]Since it's the Holiday Season, I have decided that I need a banner and avi to match the mood, like many of the OBers. [URL=http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f11/KellyBug791/Tree.jpg]clicky for pic[/URL] I'd like it if you could get more close up of the tree and tilt it diagonally to the left for both the avatar and banner. Oh! And I'd love love love it if the star could be seen in them. On the avatar I'd like it it to say "Merry Christmas" in [COLOR=Red][FONT=Impact]impact font[/FONT][/COLOR] and in red in the bottom right corner. Also on the avi, it would be nice if you could tint the tree green, as to offset the font color. On the banner, I'd like it to say "I could care less" and font be [COLOR=DarkGreen][SIZE=5][FONT=Vivaldi] Vivaldi [/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR] and in a nice pine green color. Also, it would be nice if the tree had a red tint, to it so it would match. Thank you![/FONT] [/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Sojiro47] Would you rather be a city manager that's in charge of shutting peoples water off, who also recieves hate mail and old ladies that come into your office and call you the devil? Or...

[FONT=Tahoma][COLOR=SeaGreen]I've always thought of the OB as a large highschool with the popular kids (mods, admins, famous members), the outcasts (banned members), the normal people (regular members), the freshmen (n00bs). Only, school is much, much more disorganized than the OB.[/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Tahoma]Name: Noodles Species: Garder Snake Coloring: Smooth and deep green with a sunflower yellow stripe along his back. Disposition: Kinda slow, but like-able. Anything else: Noodles has a bit of a lisp, so he pronounces his s's very long (like "ssso how'sss it going?"). He used to live in a pet shop very close to the forest, but one day an idiot little boy decided to kidnap him from his warm, comfortable cage. The boy got half a block away before dropping the snake and turning his attention to an ice cream truck. Noodles then slithered into the forest.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[B][COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Tahoma]I have just recently come across an amazing band named "Say Anything" and my song of the week MUST be "Every Man Has A Molly". I picked this song for 3 reasons: Reason #1: My name is Molly. So I have decided that this song is about me. Reason #2: This song is one of the nicest things to grace my ears since I discovered "Daft Punk". Reason #3: "Every Man Has A Molly", is about how the singer picked his band over his lover. That's just...very "practical", for lack of a better word.[/FONT][/COLOR][/B]

[QUOTE=Leon Fury][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=Black][SIZE=2] it's weird cos half of the acts I know, no one's ever heard of. Let's start with my favourite, Bloc Party. - Fury[/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/QUOTE] [COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode] Mmmm Bloc Party......very smexy. I just bought Bloc Party's CD "Silent Alarm" a few days ago, and I love it dearly. And I found out they're coming to my town, so that makes me very, very excited! Woot.[/FONT][/COLOR] [QUOTE=RiflesAtRecess][size=1][font=arial] I don't even consider Bloc Party a punk band at all. [/font][/size][/QUOTE] [COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode]I think it's one of those bands that's special, and doesn't really have a specific genre... It's like, indie-techno-alternative-punk-emo-rock. Which makes them even awesomer.[/FONT][/COLOR] [quote name='DeadSeraphim][COLOR=Indigo][SIZE=1][FONT=Arial]Look up Apocalypse Hoboken's "House of the Rising Son of a *****" and get back to me.[/FONT][/SIZE'][/COLOR][/quote] [COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode]Ew. No thanks. My eardrums imploded because of this. I only have 6 bands to add to this....as of right now, at least. [B]They Might Be Giants[/B]: This band got me into music altogether. They make an accordion sound rockin. 'Nuff said. [B]The Angry String Orchestra[/B]: I was looking up Fall Out Boy (so sue me, I'm a bit mainstream), and I got this band. Er, rather "orchestra". They did a Fall Out Boy tribute, and it's just a string quartet. I first I thought "Ew. No way, that's dumb." then I listened to it, and I was in a daze. It is phenomenal. I think they also did a bunch of other tributes, but I'm not sure. [B]Cartel[/B]: This band stole my heart with "Honestly", which has been playing on MTV lately (yeah, I'm mainstream). I bought their CD, "Chroma", thinking "Honestly" was the only good song on there, and as it turns out they all rock. And the songs are clean! Huzzah, I can listen to them with mom and pop! [B]The Academy Is[/B]...: Yes, the name of the band does have "..." after it, ok? Vocals are very, very important to me when it comes to music, and the singer's voice won me over. [B]Cute Is What We Aim For[/B]: The lyrics. It's the lyrics. They are (in my opinion) magical. And emo. Just the way I like 'em. [B]Boys Like Girls[/B]: They're a mix of romantic emo rock. And because of that, they are going to be the next big thing, and I can't wait for it. A'ight. That's all for now. But I expect another CD in the near futrue, so it's most likely going to be another unknown band.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=SeaGreen][B][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode]Tayu nodded and pointed to a dance club called "The Suicide". "We could go there" he said, before looking at Andy, smiling. Andy sighed and grabbed his arm, before quickly saying "Ok, that's good, let's go." and running off. Andy's stomach was still sore, and she knew the only thing that could make it better was alcohol. They arrived at the club, and went in. Andy bypassed the waitress, and headed straight for the bar. She sat and looked up at Tayu before asking "Well, are you sitting, or what? I want Champagne."[/FONT][/B][/COLOR]

[COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode][B]Andy had the fallen pinned to the ground. She thought she had won, but he spread his wings, forcing her off him. She thought "Dirty Bastard! What a cheap trick!" before gently falling to the ground. Andy soon noticed that the fallen was dangerously close to his coat, with all the firearms. She charged at him, but stumbled a little and slowed down. Andy saw him reach into his coat on the ground, and got frightened. "That fucker is going to shoot me!" Andy realized. She never had planned on getting killed then, so she was tempted to forfeit for a moment, but did the complete opposite. She dashed at him, and he dodged her, coming up out of his coat with only a barrel of a sniper rifle. The crashed, and he hit Andy in the stomach with the barrel, hard. She fell back on the ground, and felt the pain from the blow mix with the hunger pains. "If that jackass gave me internal bleeding, I'll kill him." She tried standing up, and succeeded, barely. She charged at him again, but he grabbed her and held her against the wall. "Oh god, oh god, oh god!" She thought "He's going to rape me!" Andy was scared for her life. But then the fallen whispered in her ear "I win" and slowly released her arms. Andy started to relax, then remembered what her slutty, whore-of-a-sister told her about men when Andy was just a mere lass, "Andy, you gotta show 'em who's boss, and show 'em some skin." Andy then turned and pinned him against the wall and said "No, I win". Much to her surprise, he managed to turn around. Andy thought "Oh, why not, you showed him who's boss, so why not show some skin?" She thought quickly, and then leaned against him, and kissed him, hard. The kiss only lasted a few seconds, before she pushed him away and wiped her lips with her arm. "What's your name, punk?" She asked, like nothing had happened. "T-Tayu." he stammered, still shocked from the sudden kiss Andy had given him. "I'm Andy. I'd say it's nice to meet you," Andy said, sticking out her hand for him to shake, "But it's not." He took her hand, and shook it, still amazed that she had kissed him. "Now, what about my dinner, you freak?" Andy asked, starting to get bored. [/B] [/FONT] [/COLOR]

[B][COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode]Andy started to get annoyed as the fallen started emptying his pockets of his guns. "Fuck!" She thought "He's loaded!" And she felt a little bit of admiration for him, but quickly changed it to hate. "Mmm I think if I win...I want...a kiss" said the fallen. Andy was completely shocked by this, and could feel her cheeks grow red a little. She had never had her first kiss before, and no one had ever flat out asked her to kiss them before. She blinked and quickly said "Hey you think I'm just gunna make out with you? And besides I wanna get to know you first..." Andy felt her stomach grumble in pain. "That's it! If I win I want you to take me to dinner!" At that, Andy saw him blush, and got a little embarrassed. But before she could react to that, he lunged at her, and hit her shoulder. She gasped at the pain, for it was the arm with the gash on it that got hit. The hurt made her want to win even more. She quickly jumped into a tree, and hid before pouncing on him, and pinning him to the ground with a loud "thunk!".[/FONT][/COLOR][/B]

[B][COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode]"No. Guns are for cheap sissy boys." Andy said as she looked over her new opponent. She knew he had reached into his pocket for a gun. It was obvious, he wasn't the type to punch someone, he was the type that always took the easy way out. He was a tall, handsome fallen, but most likely "doesn't have anything under the trunk" Andy thought. She felt the blood rush to through her viens, and she lost all the hunger pains in her stomach. "We fight fist to fist." She added as she dropped her knives on the ground. "So, drop those damn guns, and punch me already!" Then she thought for a moment and said "But before you do, decide the stakes. I want something good, when I win."[/FONT][/COLOR][/B]

[B][COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode]Andy yawned, and looked out the window of her hotel room. It was night, and as she looked upon the dirty streets of the city, she got a bit homesick. She then slapped herself a little, and whispered "Stop it! They're gone! You can't go back, there's no one there anymore!" Andy sighed and plopped back down on the hard, grimy bed. She was exhausted from her last job. "That vampire just wouldn't die!" she thought to herself, as she rubbed the gash on her arm that she got when she had battled. She sighed, and replayed the events in her mind that had gotten her to this God forsaken place: [SIZE=2][CENTER]She remembered she only took the job because of the $10,000 she was getting for it. Her client had said, "This vampire killed my only daughter, so please don't go easy on him!" After he said that she thought "Oh please! Everyone dies! It's not like she mattered much anyway!" "Atalanta, Georgia" He had then said, "there's where you'll find the bastard" At that she had rolled her eyes, and thought "I thought the bastard was in this room with me!" She made it to her destination with ease. Same with finding her target. He was a tall, lean vamp with blood red hair, and eyes to match. "That idiot! He sticks out of the crowd like a sore thumb!" Then she smiled to herself and pounced on her unsepecting prey. The vampire had gasped and tried to bite her, but ended up cutting her arm instead. "Bastard!" she had gasped as she pushed him to the ground with a loud thud. The vampire had tried to bite her foot, but she kicked sand in his face. "Tonight, you're going to die." she said with a bittersweet smile. He had hissed at her, and spit in her face. She got down close to him and said quietly, so only he could hear "It's going to be fun to kill you, you sleazy prick" as she slowly jabbed him with her knife. The look on his face went from hate, to pain, to nothing at all. Andy smiled to herself, and pocketed her knife. She cut off his ear and some hair with a different knife, and left the scene.[/CENTER][/SIZE] Andy snapped out of her daydream, and realized she hadn't eaten in awhile. She stood up, locked the door, and started off on her quest for food. As she was walking, stared at her boots. "Time to get a new pair" she mumbled to herself. Andy then walked into something, and looked up and say that it was a man in a white trench coat. "Fag!" She yelled, as she shoved him out of the way "You wanna fight punk? Huh, do you?"[/FONT][/COLOR][/B]

[COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode]Oh yay! Barfing! One of my worst barfs was on my birthday this year. I hadn't been feeling well lately (i.e. not eating much, and tired), and I had been under a lot of stress (i.e. I was in a play at the time). So, on me birthday I woke up, and decided I was hungry. Being the weirdo I am, I decided to eat some baked ziti for breakfast. So, I happily ate it. And then my brother gave my a present. It was a CD of a live They Might Be Giants concert we had went to during the summer. And that's when my stomach started to hurt. Badly. It hurt right at the top of my rib cage. I had no idea what to do. It hurt to move, so walking to the bathroom was out of the question. So instead, I sat down on a chair at my kitchen table, and I threw up into my mom's hands (don't worry, she had a towel over her hands) and then I took a shower to get the baked ziti out of my hair. My brother bragged that his present was so awesome, that it made me sick. I am never, ever eating baked ziti again. Ever. On to another wonderful barfing adventure! Huzzah! More recently, I threw up while going on vacation. What happened is this: I was tired, so I was sleeping in the backseat of my dad's car, while we were driving. And then I woke up, and ate some Combos and drank some soda. We were driving along, happily, when my stomach started to hurt. And that's when everything got annoying. I had my parents shut up, because the sound of their voices was making me sicker. I tried closing my eyes, but I felt even sicker after that. So, I had my mom pull over, and I got out of the car and wandered over off the side of the highway, leaned over, and puked. When I was done barfing, I got back in the car and was going insane. I was talking like I was drunk. Strangely enough, that was my favorite day of the vacation. Go figure.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode]Ahhh, shoes. I love shoes. I usually wear a pair of boots, that look like uggs, but are really just a very-well made knock off of uggs. (For those of you that don't know what ugs look like, they look like [url=http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f127/ashleymary/shopbop293yw.png] this. [/url]) I wear my fuggs (fake-uggs) almost everywhere. Even during the summertime. I call them my "magic boots", because I can do anything in them. Even fly. Now, I also wear flip-flops from time to time. I have like, 5 pairs of flip-flops (or "flippers", as I like to call them). I have found that my dogs like my flippers too. Especially the taste of them. :animesigh As far as "normal" shoes go (as in sneakers), I hate 'em. I only wear them when completely necessary.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=SeaGreen][FONT=Tahoma][B]I [I]love[/I] to sing. Lately, I've been singing "Sugar, We're Goin' Down" by Fall Out Boy. But, my most of my friends are Panic! At The Disco fans, so we always sing one of their songs. I'll sing to anyone. Whether they want to listen or not. I sing all the time, at the most random moments, like there was this one time when I was driving somewhere with my Grandmother, and I started singing "Deck The Halls". Very loudly. And I didn't realize I was singing. I suppose I'm good at singing, not the best, but good. I don't expect to win a Grammy, but you never know.[/B][/FONT][/COLOR]
