-right now my other biggest obsession is comedy stuff, especially would i lie to you & of course david mitchell + lee mack. and iâm also insanely obsessed with charlie brooker for reasons that are at this point a bit hard to explain but please feel free to ask me about literally anything comedy related i would be overjoyed
(p.s. if you see me talking about a âcbâ or âcharlieâ or just âbrookerâ then im talking about charlie brooker, unless iâve specified otherwise. i do that cos i donât wanna clog up the search results *too* much lol)

đĽâźď¸currently very obsessed with franz ferdinand (again the band not the guy), comedy in general & the show âwould i lie to youâ (but especially these folks: david mitchell, lee mack and charlie brooker + the series âthe tripâ) (also MANY different tv comedies and comedians and so on), horror stuff, saw, homestuck, aaaaand mormonism + jehovahs witnesses (I DO NOT SUPPORT EITHER!! they are both cults and i merely have an interest in how they function and things related to them as a whole)âźď¸đĽ + more listed below

- âźď¸ i like to rpf post i like to read rpf and i like to draw rpf âźď¸ if youre uncomfortable with rpf that is a-okay and i understand & respect that, iâm still happy to be mutuals provided you arent like. a jerk or whatever lol. iâm also super interested in the concept of rpf itself and the relationships between fiction & reality, creator & audience, etc. so like if you wanna have a discussion about rpf (no matter your opinion on it) iâd be very happy to oblige!
^ note that i am NOT a genuine tinhatter and all rpf-style things i say are firmly in the realm of fiction, even if i like to talk like i believe it irl ultimately i respect that i donât know these people and itâs not my place to make genuine assumptions about their personal lives

jay mccarrol singing and playing keyboard in his high school band âthe blue collar tweekersâ on jonovisionâs jonopalooza in 1999, as seen in this instagram post. CRAZY stuff. genuinely quite good music too i think. this aired october 15th apparently so i think he wouldâve been roughly 16 at the time (on that note, donât be weird about this video please đ). clip is from this youtube upload of the entire jonovision episode itâs from (starts around 10:04), MASSIVE shout-out to youtube user âShort Attention Spanâ for uploading it bc otherwise that instagram post would be all that was left of this i fear. transcript of the video and also my best attempt at transcribing the lyrics below the cut. as far as i can tell no song name was given. oh yeah also im assuming the band name is a reference to the song âthose damned blue-collar tweekersâ by the band âprimusâ
Jonathan Torrens: Our final Toronto-Palooza contenders have only been together a short time, but already theyâre making snappy, cracklinâ, [poppinâ OR pop and] rich with irony. Part of your delicious breakfast, make some noise for the Blue Collar Tweakers! (crowd cheers)
(song starts)
Once alone on a schoolyard
Was Andy Johnson, never had any friends
Was teased and beaten by the children,
wondered why
No one picked[? picks? lifts?] you up,
when youâre falling[fallen?] down
No one even cared when you left town
No one cared when you werenât around
Where should he sit in a crowd full of people
who wonât let him in?
How should he act when the people are all saying[?],
âWhat is wrong with him?â
Once alone on a schoolyard
Mind was filled with thoughts of anger
No one ever loved him,
or asked him why
Where should I sit in a crowd full of people
who wonât let me in?
How should I act when the people are all saying[?],
What is wrong with me?
[some instrumental]
Even though you didnât know that [???John who sat has never showed???],
[Thereâs?] nowhere to go
Seems as if youâre [just that hurt?],
canât understand a single word,
lifeâs been a blur
Andy
Forgive me, oh-oh-oh
(song ends)
Jonathan Torrens: Well, ladies and gentlemen of the audience, youâve heard four great acts â (video ends).
had a dream last night that jensen ackles and jared padalecki caused a massive ruckus at a showing of like, penguins of madagascar or something, because a song that played in supernatural played in the movie. it was on the news and they kept playing destiel clips from the show while discussing it
"sitting here at a piano, wish you were here" can be, in my mind, something that jay either voiced to an empty ceiling alone in his apartment or drunkenly left on a voicemail to matt. this can apply to either his berklee days or while on tour with hayden/brave shores pick your poison
