Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Mine usually does that after an undock and redock.

Mine just bursts into it, but only when undocked. We're running XP on hardware that's designed for W7. Apparently that's the problem, yet they haven't updated us yet.

1995 was the best R&B year ever, man. I miss all that shit. Babyface, I miss you!

Because books.

I can't believe they have Player's "Baby Come Back" on there. And "Sarah Smile"! My childhood, right there on AM radio.

Babyface went to my high school! One of few famous alums. Though I hear one of the nerdy catholic boys I did theater with is now writing and producing for Jay Sean. WTF?

I am feeling unreasonably irked at my roommate at the moment. Because his dishes are still in the sink, and I'm feeling like he's never going to do any cleaning. Now, granted, do I do much cleaning? Hell no. But first he irked me with loud music and loud sex last night, and now the dishes are still not done...argh.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Wizard of Oz fans need to check out Jeremy Little's version of If I Only Had A Brain. It's super sweet.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I used to have a big crush on Babyface, and then I was on a flight with him...I didn't know who it was, but someone came down the aisle exclaiming "He looked right at my baby!" so I had to wander aimlessly up to first class to look and see.

Yeah, it was him, and he looked cute and shit, but I had the Motts from that fanstruck lady, and my crush disappeared.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Babyface went to my high school!

Cool!

I never had a crush on Babyface, really, but "Whip Appeal" still gives me The Feelings.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

What's The Motts?

The only famous people who went to my high school are Brian and Brady Blade (Brian, I think was the one my husband was in school with), Kenny Wayne Sheppard (I went to school with him), and Cedric Glover, the 1st African-American mayor of Shreveport.

There are probably more in other fields, just not that I know of.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I don't know if anybody from my high school became famous.

JZ went to high school with Margaret Cho, Aisha Tyler (who I totally didn't realize was Ross's Black Girlfriend on Friends. She's so awesome on Archer), and Sam Rockwell. EM went to high school with Elizabeth Pena (a good friend), Ving Rhames (dance program, of all things) and Suzanne Vega. Both performing arts high schools.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I went to high school with Nadine Sutherland, who you've never heard of, and Vauna Hyatt, ditto, but Jamaicans have. In England I was a year behind Helena Bonham Carter, and a year ahead of Sarah Patterson (who didn't do much after her Neil Jordan debut).

What's The Motts?

Watch from the hall syndrome.
