[tea-with-evan-and-me]

Lol her stans have a very delusional view of who she is. They think she is a very renowned actress who got her first show all by herself when she has a famous father and a very famous and powerful Aunt.

It's from a day ago but I'm catching up just now and I have to reply cuz I was arguing with one of her fans today and they told me that it doesn't  matter that her dad and aunt are famous because most people don't know they're related. And the thing is, yes a lot of people don't realize her and Julia are family, but that's random people. The people who cast Emma in stuff do know it 🤣 She had everything handed to her thanks to being "Roberts". Also, Emma fans need to accept that Emma is irrelevant now. They think that a few viral videos a week where someone uses her as a meme or a reaction video means people care about her, but it doesn't. This woman didn't have a hit project in a while, her movies make no noise and the new AHS season might be more talked about than the few last ones, because of Kim K, but it's not enough for Emma to be relevant again cuz AHS is kind of irrelevant too. Yes there are still fans, and again, bcs of Kim there will probably be more people other than just the regular fans watching it but it won't ever be as popular as it was. Thanks to Evan's hype in 2022 the fandom was revived for a while but it died again lol.

LMAO at ''most people not knowing'' she's related to julia roberts. 9/10 articles about emma mention this. the delusion...

The ever-expanding potential TBR pile

I've finally decided to go through all those book videos I bookmark on TikTok and make an ever-updating list of them - and any other book I see suggested online. Some are books I know of and haven't read, and some are new to me. This is going to be an easier place to find them than dozens of saved video bookmarks.

Chris Brown Calls Out People Who 'Still Hate' Him Chris Brown is calling out people for still bringing up the time he beat Rihanna up 14 years ago. Proving that it never forgets, the internet is resurfacing the brutal domestic assault amidst recent news that Brown will be collaborating with Chloé Bailey, one part of the Grammy-nominated duo Chloe x Halle, on her new single, "How Does It Feel." After Bailey announced the news, she was beset with criticism from those who felt she was helping rehabilitate Brown's image. \u201c2ND PIECE. HOW DOES IT FEEL @chrisbrown. 2/24 \ud83e\udec0\u201d — Chlo\u0308e (@Chlo\u0308e) 1676567018 As social media users voiced their disapproval, Brown angrily took to Instagram Stories on Friday to hit back, saying, "'If yall still hate me for a mistake I made as a 17year old please kiss my whole entire ass! I'm f*ckin g 33! I'm so tired of yall running wit this narrative." Related | Chris Brown Sued For Allegedly Drugging, Raping Woman On YachtThe 33-year-old took aim in particular at former 3LW and Cheetah Girls member Kiely Williams, who had tweeted critically of him, saying, "Let him come out with his own record—so genius, so captivating that it makes us all forget HE BEATS WOMEN. He can’t so he wont. So what does he do? He slowly creeps back into the mainstream by getting small nods for features on Black Women’s merit." \u201cLet him come out with his own record\u2014so genius, so captivating that it makes us all forget HE BEATS WOMEN. He can\u2019t so he wont. So what does he do? \n\nHe slowly creeps back into the mainstream by getting small nods for features on Black Women\u2019s merit. Black women who are more\u2026\u201d — Kiely Williams (@Kiely Williams) 1676598858 "Black women who are more talented, more worthy, but give him the okay," Williams added. In response, Brown posted a meme of Williams' face suggesting that she had a lisp. After coming for Williams, Brown went on to call out a long list of mostly male, white celebrities — including Sean Penn, Ozzy Osbourne, Mel Gibson, Slash, Charlie Sheen, and Emma Roberts — who have been accused of domestic violence. "Where are the cancel culture with these white artist that date underage women, beat the f*ck out their wives, giving b*tches AIDS," he wrote alongside the images. It's worth noting that while Brown makes a point about a double standard for white celebrities, that does not negate the fact that after assaulting Rihanna in 2009, he went on to face allegations of abuse from his next girlfriend, Karrueche Tran, who in 2017 secured a restraining order after Brown threatened to "kill her." And as recently as last year, he was sued for drugging and raping a woman on a yacht in 2022. Plus, despite Brown's cries about "cancel culture," he kicked off his Instagram rant by posting a number of videos of fans and crowd at his shows, suggesting that he continues to sell out stadiums and draw audiences. As Williams noted in her tweet, Bailey is not the first female artist to face backlash for associating with Brown. Kelly Rowland recently drew criticism for shushing Brown's critics at the AMA's, while Lizzo raised eyebrows when she said he was her "favorite person."Artists who have worked with Brown have found themselves in even hotter water — including Ella Mai, Tinashe, Summer Walker, and H.E.R., who have all featured him on songs, as well as Normani, who made a cameo in the video of his 2022 song "We (We Embrace)." And that's not to mention the long list of male artists — from Drake to Future and Kendrick Lamar — who have likewise collaborated with him. See what Twitter users had to say about the whole ordeal below, with commentary divided among those criticizing Bailey, those pointing out the long list of artists Brown has collaborated with, and those saying they plan to listen to the song either way. \u201cThe Chris Brown backlash Chloe is getting isn\u2019t even just about Rihanna?

dead detective’s wife

[einsteinsugly]

Eric and Donna, The Headcanons...

For @jackieburkhrts, because you asked. :)

-Donna taught him how to jump off the swings and how to ride a bike without training wheels, when they were little. And taught him about the birds and the bees, to Kitty's horror.

-Christmas Time is Here is their favorite Christmas song.

-Donna always kicks Eric's ass at Scrabble.

-They share flannels and hoodies. All the freaking time.

-They exchange buckets of chicken at and/or after their wedding.

-They marry at a courthouse on a whim, while traveling, but still have their "official" wedding in the Formans' backyard.

-They only go to church when they're in Point Place, or when the parents come to visit.

-They travel a lot during college, and a bit afterwards, too. And after they retire, too, but they have way more money saved up by then. Eric wants to travel the globe on a sailboat, but Donna isn't particularly receptive. Eric tries to compromise with an RV, but Donna is only vaguely receptive.

-Eric has a major midlife crisis, and it goes way beyond Hyde's mere motorcycle. Boats, cars, RVs, vacation homes. He looks at them all. Does he have enough money? Eh.

-As they age, Eric is definitely becomes the talker out of the two. Wild hand gestures and all. He also emails Donna lots and lots of memes.

-If there isn't an oopsy-daisy (like Kate in my verse), they're the DINKs of the group. Double income, no kids. Eric wants kids a year or two before Donna, and Kitty is particularly pushy about it. Fertile Myrtle won't give me grandbabies, Red!

-Eric is devastated after Return of the Jedi, and insists on making family trees to prove to the rest of the gang that he and Donna aren't related. They're thirteenth cousins.

-Donna jokes if they ever have twins, they should name them Luke and Leia. Eric is horrified, and Donna responds with a "what about Leah?" Hence, an inside joke is born (in my verse, it evolves to their daughter being named Leah).

-The names Alexander (Alex), Luke/Lucas, and Robert are the most likely candidates for boys. Katherine/Caitlin, Alexandra, Lucy, and Emma are most likely candidates for girls. Eric likes Sarah (for his little princess) and Holly, too. And Leah is in the cards (not Leia, eww), because of their little inside joke.

-When they have a kid, Eric proudly puts a "Padawan On Board" sticker on the back of his car. And Donna groans, but with a little smile.

-After the Luke and Leia debacle, Eric insists that he and Donna are Peter Parker and Mary Jane. And in the 90s, Luke and Mara, of course.

-They love Bon Jovi, almost as much as Aerosmith.

-Donna says "Dude (Looks like a Lady)" is Eric's song. And after Mrs. Doubtfire comes out, she hands him a vacuum cleaner.

-Eric's favorite Aerosmith song is "I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing," because it reminds him of him and Donna. It's Donna's least favorite Aerosmith song, but eventually? It's better than "Perfect" by Ed Sheeran.

-They get a basketball hoop for the kids, but end up hogging it themselves.

-They occasionally pinky promise, and play rock, paper, scissors to make decisions.

-Eric always leaves the toilet seat up, walks around the house (and to the mailbox) in his underwear, and hoards stuff in the garden shed. The worse demerits Hyde has to his name is that he sleeps in too much (whereas Jackie is an early bird), but Eric is genuinely more annoying to live with. But Donna loves him anyway, and even? Likes him.

-Eric always "loses" Donna's grocery list, and buys what he (and the kids) want instead.

-Like her father, Donna writes/makes sticky notes on leftover food that is rightfully hers. If Eric touches it, he dies (or fine, maybe she'll just yell at him and make him watch 60 Minutes with her).

-Eric is always the one with the camera/video camera in hand, filming every milestone the kids could ever have. It can be overwhelming, especially since he hoards them all.

-Donna makes Eric eat broccoli in front of the kids to "set an example," and makes him check for monsters under their beds.

Eric: It's all dust! Kate (wide-eyed, horrified): It's the dust bunnies! Donna (handing him a duster, with a smirk): Kill the dust bunnies, honey.

-No matter the verse, Donna always makes more money than Eric. As a teacher, he earns way less than he rightfully should. He's self-conscious about it, because his dad always told him that the man should bring home the bacon.

Donna: But your dad didn't have a job, and your mom… Eric (gesturing wildly): I know, but it's the principle of it, okay?

-Eric and Donna work together professionally, all the time. Eric brings up issues he faces while on the ground, and Donna follows up on it. As Eric joins her, camera in hand, of course. Like Peter Parker at the Daily Bugle, but he's a bit more of an amateur.

-Eric loves The Wonder Years, and is devastated when Kevin and Winnie don't end up together. At least in his case, Kevin (Eric) ended up with Winnie (Donna). With wedding bands on their fingers, and with two daughters, Kate and Leah, to boot.

I guess that was it with the hate. It was fun while it lasted! But I hoped there would be a domino effect and others would start exposing her too. Or at lleast more articles detailing Emma'a behavior. Secretly hoping that this wasn't everything for Ms Roberts. I am so sure everyone who's ever worked with her has something to say. I hope more will come to the surface and more ppl have the courage to speak up!

i also hope that more people will speak out against her, and honestly, i believe sooner or later someone will. there have been articles, and there will continue to be people rightfully hating her online. but to be blunt, emma roberts is just not that big of a deal. outside of fandom, she wasn’t a topic of conversation and that won’t change. the only time her name has been on peoples lips in recent times is when she’s gone viral, for a meme.. or more recently, being caught on camera being an asshole. if you spend time on twitter, you would think she is an a-list actress with leading roles in big budget productions. she’s not. she does romcoms nobody watches and sponsored posts on IG. the only difference now is that some of her biggest fans on twitter have unstanned, transphobic people are making her a martyr, and now when she scrunches her nose and sticks her tongue out in a video there will be people calling her a transphobe in the comments in addition to the 14 year olds saying “idc she’s still mother”.

[idk-random-things]

What does your favorite tgwdlm charecter says about you?

Paul Matthew's - you stan Jon Matteson.

Professor Henry Hidgens - you want to be a Broadway actor and it shows

Sam - you watch Brooklyn 99

Charllot - you seem innocent but once someone really gets to know you they see you are not.

General McNamara - TTTO is your favorite starkid musical and you love Jeff blim.

Alice - you have Tik Tok and you follow tons of theatre kids.

Zoe - you are the theatre kid on Tik Tok.

Bill - you're legit so nice and pure like?? be my friend plz.

Ted - you have a tough act but you will cry at one of those videos of soldiers coming back home.

Hot Choclate Boy - you are in love with Robert manion, and honestly, I get it.

The Top 25 Movies About Social Media to Add to Your Watch List

The Top 25 Movies About Social Media to Add to Your Watch List

Social media has inspired comedies, dystopian thrillers, documentaries, and horror movies.

Here is a list of the best movies related to social media, in no particular order.

1. The Social Dilemma, 2020

Documentary

Netflix

A popular movie that can’t be recommended enough.

Even if you’re in the business there are parts of this movie that will still startle.

Featuring interviews with people who invented a variety of the algorithms.

This movie balances the shock factor of what’s going on behind the scenes of social media with insights into how social media can be improved.

2. Love, Guaranteed, 2020

Romantic Comedy

Netflix

Stars Rachael Leigh Cook, Damon Wayans Jr., Heather Graham, Kandyse McClure (Dualla on Battlestar Galactica).

Social media is defined as a social network, and what kind of network is more social than a dating app?

This romantic comedy follows an attorney and her client who claims that a dating site guarantees love is offering a false promise.

As evidence, he offers himself, who has engaged in a thousand dates and failed to find love.

3. The Hater, 2020

Thriller

Netflix

This is a great movie that you might never have heard of but should definitely check out.

It’s a fast-paced thriller and drama about using social media to settle personal scores.

The hero of the movie is both likable and worthy of loathing.

Don’t be put off by the fact that this is a Polish movie and you might have to read subtitles.

This movie tells a story of harnessing the power of social media like a weapon against those who may or may not deserve it.

It’s highly relevant in today’s world of disinformation amplification yet it’s not really about social media in the same way that a movie like Taxi Driver is not about guns.

Both movies, Taxi Driver and The Hater, share a theme of the misfit trying to fit in and not really able to find a way in until circumstances create an opportunity.

4. Emily in Paris, 2020

Comedy-drama

Netflix

I cheated.

This isn’t a movie.

But so many who have an interest in social media marketing and movies will find this so interesting that I had to fit it in.

The central character – Emily (duh!), is a social media marketer from Chicago who is sent to a Paris office where she’s met with skepticism.

She changes her Instagram handle to @emilyinparis and starts posting photos, her account goes viral.

The series is from the mind of Darren Star, the writer behind such hits as Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, and Sex and the City.

If any of those are your favorites then it’s likely you’ll enjoy Emily in Paris as well.

There’s a bit of suspension of disbelief necessary regarding the social media, but Emily in Paris is fundamentally a fantasy not a documentary.

A little fantasy helps to get through these dark and pandemic times.

5. Die Influencers Die, 2020

Horror

Roku

This is a B-Movie slasher exploitation flick about a group of easy-to-hate influencers meeting dreadful ends.

What’s not to like right?

Millions of social media followers are dangled in front of a small group of social media influencers in exchange for spending the night at a reportedly haunted studio in Las Vegas.

For those who enjoy heavy metal, are annoyed by social media influencers to no end, and harbor a fondness for killer clowns…this movie is for you.

6. Spree, 2020

Social media satire/Horror

Amazon, Vudu

A spree is defined as a sustained period of time during which an unrestrained activity is indulged.

That’s pretty much what this movie is about, a rideshare driver going to the ultimate extreme to achieve Internet fame.

Starring Joe Keery (“Steve” in Stranger Things), Spree is a dark and violent comedy that’s not necessarily for everyone.

7. #realityhigh, 2017

Dramedy

Netflix

This is a teen dramedy about a girl going through the social media popularity rabbit hole and becoming another person to please others.

8. Hard Candy, 2005

Thriller/Horror/Revenge

Amazon, iTunes, Vudu, YouTube

This is an under-the-radar movie that might make some uncomfortable.

It stars Ellen Page (Juno, Umbrella Academy), Patrick Wilson (Conjuring, Watchmen, Aquaman), and Sandra Oh (Killing Eve, Grey’s Anatomy, Sideways, Princess Diaries).

The movie won several awards including three at the 2005 Sitges Film Festival (Best Motion Picture, Best Screenplay, and an Audience Award for Best Motion Picture) and four awards at the 2006 Spanish Malaga Film Festival (Best Film, Best Director, Best Actress and Best Cinematographer).

Ellen Page won Best Actress at the 2006 Austin Film Critics Association Awards.

This is an intelligent suspense and thriller.

But it’s not for the squeamish.

It can get grueling for some.

Ellen Page stars as a 17-year-old teenager who entraps an older man via a chat room.

Expecting illicit activities the teenager turns the table on him.

Again, I must warn that this movie is not for those with delicate sensibilities.

9. Searching, 2018

Thriller

Amazon, Vudu, YouTube

A movie starring John Cho (Harold & Kumar, Star Trek) in the missing person genre.

The daughter goes missing and police lack leads, so the father takes to the Internet to trace the daughter’s virtual steps to find her.

10. Ingrid Goes West, 2017

Comedy

Hulu

Stars Elizabeth Olsen and Aubrey Plaza.

Aubrey Plaza is a great actress who consistently surprises with the quirky nuance she brings to her roles and that’s also the case here.

This film is in the stalker genre but it’s also a satire of the influencer world.

11. The Social Ones, 2020

Comedy

Amazon Prime, iTunes, Vudu, YouTube

This is a mockumentary and parody of the influencer culture, taking swipes at Instagram stars and fashion bloggers.

12. A Simple Favor, 2018

Comedy/Thriller

Amazon, Hulu, Sling TV, Vudu, YouTube

This is a Paul Feig movie about a video blogger who gets in over her head after she befriends a woman who causes her viewership to soar.

The mystery and thriller quality of the story kept me watching.

24. Chef, 2014

It’s partially about the transformative effect that social media can have on a life.

25. You, 2018

Dramedy/Thriller

Netflix TV Series

This is not a movie.

Advertisement

Continue Reading Below

Again, I cheated.

Yet it deserves to be included in a list of things to watch and chill.

The show is absolutely binge-bait, it grabs you from the beginning and you hang on tight as the story takes unexpected twists and turns.

Without spoiling anything, the series is about a smart likable guy who meets a cute college student who is between relationships.

What seems like a romantic comedy turns into something else entirely.

An enjoyable series, well worth a try.

(continued) and i also used to be a huuge arrow watcher and fan but I stopped during season 6, for many of the same reasons i died while watching spn and greys. And in relation to what you said about nancy drew, I had never heard about the books or movie before watching the show - which is why I had nothing to compare it to, but I feel that it's a very strong show with some really good moments, if you want you should give it another go!

So Arrow & Nancy Drew weirdly have the same problem for me, personally, as a viewer: I LOVE the source material.

You know that cactus meme from that scene in The Good Place? So you’re looking for a file. You’re offered that file. You’re told, yes, it’s that file! ...but it’s a cactus, that they’re giving to you with the file’s name. It’s a perfectly nice cactus! You might have even liked it a lot, if you were looking for a cactus! But you were handed the cactus when you wanted the file, so you’re never going to feel great about the cactus or being able to look at it without thinking about the file.

Both Green Arrow & Nancy Drew have SO many different versions, true. (& I have not seen either recent Nancy Drew movie; there was that Emma Roberts one that seemed to make her all prim & out of time, and I know there was that other one, with the girl from It & Sharp Objects, which looked better). I’ve read so many takes at this point, though none ever surpassing my love of the Nancy Drew & Hardy Boys Super Mysteries. I was down for the CW’s take. I thought a lot of the character & casting choices innovative... except, uh, some went too innovative for me.

A little spookiness, a suspected ghost, very Nancy Drew to me. Actual confirmed ghosts complete with possession? This is... this is a cactus. This is not the cactus I was looking for. & I love ghost stories (see: Supernatural!). But with Nancy Drew on the tin, this is not what I came for. It’s fine. It’ll be a new part of what Nancy Drew is, it’s just... not the once & future Nancy Drew imho. It’s not capturing the core.

Similar with Arrow: it made Green Arrow more of a household name, but I was signing up for Battle Couple! Black Canary & Oliver Queen, chili-making disaster archer with punching bag arrows, & I got... not that. He did wear green! It was a very nice cactus! A very Batman-Begins-meets-Smallville’s Green Arrow esque cactus! I was very into it at first as an evolution story, and got increasingly less into it as it went on. But it did give me Sara Lance, whose take on Black Canary I really liked & who I enjoy the heck out of on Legends of Tomorrow... which I enjoy a lot more, as its completely own thing. I’m not looking for any file named ‘Legends of Tomorrow’ so it can’t disappointment me by being a wild, wonderful cactus!

I can’t say it better than Neil Gaiman did on adaptations, in context of ‘The Watch’, the upcoming BBC ‘adaptation’ of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld series which seems to be deliberately missing the soul of the work & ‘doing its own thing’. Sure, any adaptation’s a new thing: 

“Yes. But the fan base are fans. And they like the source material because it’s the source material they like. So if you do something else, you risk alienating the fans on a monumental scale. It’s not Batman if he’s now a news reporter in a yellow trenchcoat with a pet bat.“

This example isn’t quite that stark but that gets to the essence of it. 

A waitress with an iconic blue outfit in an ocean town with actual ghosts & friends she’s made at work is maybe a show I’d like on its own, but stick Nancy Drew on it... (& she might still have the dead mom & red hair & lawyer dad & the referential car & solve crimes, but the opening scene very deliberately set a ‘this is not the Nancy Drew of your childhood books & video games!’ vibe). 

Well. It’s something new & creative & I don’t *dislike* what I’ve seen of it; I do think it has a neat aesthetic & some casting/character changes that modernize well vs. ‘change for sake of change’... it’s just. It’s an ocean-vibes cactus. It’s pretty! But it became quickly clear it also wasn’t the Nancy Drew file I’d be looking for, magnifying-glass stamped on it and all, and so just not for me.

Jon’s TGWDLM Livestream

I offered to write out all of Jon’s answers in his q&a (not verbatim, just a summary but also it got a little long, sorry for that) so here it is! sorry if there’s typos, i wrote this at 2am lmao i put most of the qs in bold

it was hard not to kiss jeff in WDYWP, especially because his face was so close (great way to start it off)

“Sing the beginning of Moana wasnt improvised”

He loves Not Your Seed and Show Stopping Number

His favourite piece of fanart is one of the first ones with red paul blue paul (in let it out) and he had it as his homescreen for a while

he got into starkid by doing Power Prom with jeff and lauren, (as well as another show with jeff and another with quite a few of the starkids) and then they asked him if he was interested in auditioning and he sent in a video audition and tah dahhh

if he could play any other character from tgwdlm it’d be hidgens (though he says part of the reason he loves hidgens so much is because robert did such a good job fleshing him out)

“how close are you and jeff�� “uhh who’s jeff?”

paul’s job was originally gonna be a movie critic (buzzfeed-esque) (and at one point in WDYWP they brought up how he was reviewing a Hamilton movie musical-which was, incidentally, his fav deleted bit) but it ended up being at a customer service center “but most of the time he fixes printers and plays on the internet”

jaime helped out with some of the lyrics to CORC/COPC because she’s a barista

his fav memory with the cast was before shows and one time when they hung out after the show at a diner

his fav line that almost made him break every time was “Latte hottay...my wife...yknow like borat, dude” (it made him break a couple of times but he was always walking off stage like right as he said it)

he really liked the line “we’ll make a jammin’ cup of java, mocha latte with the froth for you, jack, frappuccino!” he just thought the wordplay was real good

fav joke was probs the moana bit (he broke a couple of times there too)

fav song was Show Stopping Number (and he said the way the songs flow when you’re listening to it on the album is so good)

he never found it boring to go to rehearsals because James and Lauren are such good choreographers and all the actors are so good at singing and dancing he got to watch them perform all the time and he really enjoyed it (how pure)

his reaction to hearing the show’s plot was “hell yeah, this is gonna be so much fun”

when he first heard let it out he was stoked because in high school he had tried performing Confrontation from Jekyll and Hyde with just a boom box so no one could actually hear the music and it didnt go well so he felt like that song was letting him redeem himself

his fav moment from the show’s run was the first show because they were so stressed because it was the first time they went all the way through the show with tech and music and it went really well “It was magical. we were all,like, on this adrenaline endorphin high and, uh, it was awesome.”

fav character from any starkid show is either nick playing robin or nick playing obi wan from Ani (he’s seen the scene where obi wan walks into the bar “probably a million times” because he loves the timing and the dry humour) but also nick gage as sultan from Twisted

fav moment to watch in the show was the part after Not Your Seed when the aliens were trying to talk at the same time

“would i have wanted to sing more? no, because i got to sing these two awesome songs” Let It Out was really fun to do but also daunting, and in Inevitable he got to sing parts of the other songs

no real mishaps with the blood capsules, just getting fake blood all over his face and shirt (but that was fine cuz it made him look like more of a badass in the next scene, as long as he remembered not to wipe it off)

fav line that he said? “ok”

“will i ever make my own version of Love Never Dies?” he wants to be in a musical about death (more of a “silly fun romcom”) and thinks that concept has so much potential

he’s inspired by The Adventure Zone and that’s where he got the name Travis from (idk what he’s talking about being inspired about, he never really says)

if paul drank the coffee, he would have been infected

there were no pranks, but

before one of the last shows he was rehearsing outside and he “stepped in human poop” like 20 minutes before he had to go on (he threw out the shoes ofc and luckily a member of the band had extra shoes that fit)

general advice? “number 1 surround yourself with people who love and support you and that you trust and you like to have a lot of fun with 2 if you can develop a skill that you l can support yourself when you’re not working, develop that skill, its really important just so you can put food on the table and also you’ll hear a ton of advice and there are a lot of training programs about how to act and how to sing but find whatever works for you...understand the character and do whatever you can to remove tension” (that was a lot lmao but i thought it was good advice)

there were lots of little improvised bits in the show but his fav was trying to figure out what he and emma were gonna say when they were going through the alleys

before every show they’d put their arms around each other and make a one word story (i can explain the game if you dont know what it is)

paul still wants a carpet

the starkid actor he’d want to play paul (if it wasnt him) would be brosenthal or brolden

fav food is “fuh”?  im sorry im a dummy ive heard of it but i cant spell it but yeah he likes it cuz it hydrates you and it’s delicious

he doesnt know the “alexa play despacito” meme

he’d love to speak mandarin (and do a film in china, he’s never been)

paul cant hear the background music when the aliens sing

his fictional band would be named either Territorial Fashionistas, The Light Quixotic, or Immortal Bond

fav fan moment was with a fan who had just had a really bad breakup which reminded of himself and how being true to yourself is more important than staying with your partner

dark mode looks cooler on his phone so he likes it best

in songs where he got to watch others singing and dancing, he was smiling on the inside and the fact that he couldnt sing or dance for most of the musical was made up for by the songs he did get to 

MY QUESTION!! (yes, i screamed) “Why did Paul offer bill and mr.davidson a ‘nice caramel frappe, nothing better’ when he only ever ordered black coffee?” he’s gotten them for Bill before cuz it’s his favourite, and he was just saying anything to try to get away from mr.davidson

he knows the lyrics to Moana because he secretly loves musicals after having watched so many with Alice growing up, but he wont even admit it to himself “he says he likes hamilton way more than mamma mia, so, yknow. he has an opinion”

he hopes it’ll come to chicago but he doesnt know if it will

his fav musical is a tie between Chess and Little Shop of Horrors

the backstage was really nice

he was honoured to have lauren spit on him

he was, of course, sad when it was over (but he’s stoked to move to LA)

finally, in the ending he revealed what his decision was for the end with paul, but i think it’s better expressed through a gif so check out: https://showstoppinnumber.tumblr.com/post/182153650669/theguywhodidnotlikemusicals

that was so long haha sorryyy i didnt wanna leave out anything. it was fun! hope you enjoy it, @realshowstopper!! if y’all have any qs hmu
