where did the year go?

[xp_daredevil]

I have officially been at the mansion for a year now. Actually, a year and a few weeks, but who's counting? Doesn't seem like that long actually. And it seems like forever.

My social worker came by last night to take me out to dinner and gave me a birthday gift since my birthday is tomorrow. $25 to itunes. Go me :) Now I need music suggestions.

I have been listening to a group named 'The Beastie Boys' recently. I would recommend them.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

They're pretty old, Kor. They're awesome.

[x-korvus.livejournal.com]

I was unaware of that. Elvis Presley has also be recommended to me. Would he be an appropriate choice?

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

he's even older, dude. But also an excellent choice

[x-korvus.livejournal.com]

My apologies. I am still tracing the origins and effects of Punk Rock.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

aaaah, cool. well...I think Elvis is the origin for everything

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Sorta, but the origins of rock were around way before Elvis made them basically acceptable for everyone. Before him, it was a lot of jazz and blues groups paving the way.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

only old people listen to jazz and the blues though. that's not cool

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

You are young and have no idea what you're talking about, Mister Dressed up As a Blues Brother for Halloween but disses the blues.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

It was an easy costume. I'd never even heard of the movie before.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Blasphemer.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

what?!

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

The movie kicks ass and should be part of anyone's cinema experience. no visuals required, all music in it is awesome.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

well, my homework is done for the night. where do I find this movie?

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Netflix.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

I am unfamiliar.

I've heard of it, I don't live under a rock, but I don't know the first thing about accessing it.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

TV and Movies on your computer, we've got a mansion-wide account. I'll walk you through it, cause there's some stuff that'll be useful even if you can't see. Dialogue and all that.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

Oh, cool. Sure.

So many websites aren't set up for blind accessibility that I rarely bother to go outside what I know and use.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Old enough that my dad has some of their stuff on tape. Adam Yauch died like last week, and was ... 40-something?

Elvis is ... okay, perspective - the PROF might've listened to him when he was my age.

Look up Henry Rollins, you might dig both him and his music.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

Oh, I heard about that. Hadn't realized he was a Beastie Boy. what'd he die of?

Yeah. My dad liked Elvis and he wasn't as old as the prof is.

Henry Rollins? I will check it out!

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

cancer. (btw, fuck cancer. Actually wait, no, I dig sex. UNfuck cancer, it can go sit in the corner and not get laid)

Lots of spoken word stuff, lots of angry punk music, also I'm pretty sure he could probably kick my ass.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

Cancer sucks.

I can kick your ass. When you let me.

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

Yeah, you're great at figuring out where my ass is, and landing a kick to it while muttering to yourself.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

would you rather I not have powers and try to grope it?

[x-wildchild.livejournal.com]

I'm just saying, dude, you only kick my ass by a significant technicality.

... course, if you're feeling badass we can step things up and you can work on self-defense without talking at the same time.

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

....alright. let's do it.
