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

Grenade is familiar! There was a cute kid on Ellen who performed it. She's good with the adorable, but this was epic. D'aww.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

And this performance (Bruno Mars, Ziggy Marley, Sting and Rihanna) this at the Grammy's is what I know of his visible career.

I am clearly more aware of his career through other people but he is really quite talented. I would give him monies.

I am afraid to Google. My guts might not be able to take it.

Stupid talent. I am happy playing with YouTube because he makes me feel too many feelings.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

According to Wikipedia, Bruno Mars' best-sellng singles are "Just The Way You Are" (12.5 million) and "Grenade" (10.2 million). They both went number one in multiple countries.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

I've never really touched Sartre besides what was brought up in high school lit and I just feel like I don't care because there probably aren't any dragons and I'm an adult now and I just want to read stuff with dragons.

EXACTLY. Except replace "dragons" with "vampires".

Unlike the white eyeliner in Avengers and IM3. (To be fair, Chris Evans had it in Avengers, too.

Heh. But it's such a good cosmetic trick.

He did actually put out Locked Out of Heaven (the, hey, that totally sounds like The Police song). Maybe there was an awards show where he did this song and Sting came out?

Yes!! When I first heard that song I assumed it was an 80s song that I had somehow just managed to have not heard until then.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

RDJ's heels, I noticed. This, I did not. Well, better watch it again.

Saw IM3 again last night, under the stars at the local drive-in theater. I didn't even know we HAD a drive-in theater. It's privately owned; apparently some family had a big field they weren't using, so they bought a huge projection television and decided to share it with everyone. There's a concession stand (those hamburgers were GOOD) and a big playground for the kids, and security, and it was PACKED and everyone was considerate and it was fun. And I may have made a friend.

I stay up late, puttering oddly, with the promise of a wee bit of a lie-in.

Yeah, no. And I can't even blame the sun, there's enough clouds so my room is not all lit up (east-facing windows.

That isn't coffee ground dust on my hands, those are bruises. Rubbing at them only makes them worse....

Zenkitty, that sounds delightful.
