Pick 5 artists/bands/musicals that you love before reading the questions:

1. Against Me!
2. The Black Keys
3. Larry And His Flask
4. Man Man
5. Ray LaMontagne

What was the first song you ever heard by 1?
Jordan’s First Choice, from the acoustic ep, the first Against Me! album I ever bought.

What is your favourite song of 4?
Top Drawer

What kind of impact has 1 left on your life?
Fuck, man. I love this fucking band. I have loved them longer than I have loved any band. They were one of the first bands that ushered me slowly away from shitty radio music to music that kicked me in the fucking soul. They helped me form a connection with my first real boyfriend when I told him they were one of my favorites. Listening to them makes me feel alive and connected to something better and meaningful. I can trace the most difficult and drastically changing years of my life over a map of their CDs. They have been with me since I was 17. I’M TEARING UP RIGHT NOW, ARE YOU HAPPY LAURA?

What are your favourite lyrics of 5?
I hate saying this but I really can’t pick. For me with this artist it’s all about the full emotional impact of the entire song and all the memories attached to it. Bits of lyrics on their own don’t do much for me but even start playing one of his songs and watch me melt into a puddle of goo.

How many times have you seen 4 live?
Zero. Infinite sadness.

What is your favourite song by 2?
Fuuuuuuuuuck….. The Only One, Things Ain’t Like They Used to Be, Breaks, Money Maker…. if I had to be REALLY picky.

Is there any song by 3 that makes you sad?
End of an Era, Slow it Down, and I’ll Be Gone. *sobs forever*

What is your favourite song by 1?
FAVORITE? How DARE you! BUT IF I MUST: Burn, Those Anarcho Punks Are Mysterious (I mean, obviously), Baby, I’m an Anarchist!, What We Worked For, We Did It All For Don. If you expect me to pick just one you are a fool!

When did you first get into 2?
The boyfriend was a fan for a while and I had no idea who they were. I kept ignoring his mentions of them. Then I started noticing their songs playing at work, listened to The Big Come Up, and it was all over. I spent most of fall and winter of 2012 listening to them almost exclusively.

How did you get into 3?
We went to a tiny bar to see a local band we like (Duck Duck Suckerpunch) and LaHF were playing that night. I had never heard of them before. They gave such a ridiculous, energetic performance and made a huge impact. I later bought All That We Know from Silver Sprocket (Hi Ferin!).

What is your favourite song by 5?

Probably “I Will Hold You in My Arms”

How many times have you seen 2 live?
None. I’ve only seen 1 and 3 live.

What is a good memory concerning 5?
When boyfriend and I were first together we would listen to him alllllll the tiiiiime. We would slow dance in my apartment and he would sing to me.

Is there a song by 4 that makes you sad?
Van Helsing Boombox.

What is your favorite song by 3?
NOOOOOOOO this is too difficult….. all of them. TOTAL COP OUT, SORRY NOT SORRY.

Hey you ridiculously attractive, wonderful people! For those that came here because of my body-positive pieces, you might be interested in my fat acceptance blog. I haven’t been updating it often but I intend to change that. I also occasionally throw around my opinions on various things over at my other tumblr. Enjoy, if that is your thing. :)

Sometimes water appears in our fridge. Then it freezes.

ETA: I think we were keeping these eggs in a bowl because they were hardboiled and we didn’t want to mix them up?
