    And Hannah - the oedipal syndrome is men falling in love with their mothers.
    The female equivalent - and I kid you not - is called the Electra Complex. So I was basically screwed from birth... laugh.gif


    I wouldn't be worried, according to Freud's theories everyone was screwed tongue.gif

    YKYOW... you're in a store, OK Go start playing and you actually jump up and down a little in excitement.
    Which also brings me to: YKYOW your friends try and ditch you in similar situations to the previous because your obsession love for OK Go scares them.

    I knew that actually (some kids read Snow White over and over when they're growing up, for me it was the fifth edition of Davison/Neale ABNORMAL PSYCHOLOGY) but between the fact that most people don't know that, and the fact that your name's Electra, I didn't think many people would get the reference, and even if they knew what Electra Complex was, they might still get confused as to my meaning.

    What was it that Damian said in an interview once when asked to describe OK Go's music? Something about seeing someone riding along in a convertible, having the time of their life: OK Go is the music playing on their stereo. Their music is great for road trips!

    I got that as well, but I haven't had the time to listen to it, how is it?

    YKYOW you hate working out, know you'll probably never workout, and still decide to buy the OK Go "Master the Treadmills" workout album.

    PZO: For people who haven't heard your music, how would you describe yourselves?
    Damian: Uh, rock 'n' roll. Okay, you're driving on a highway and there's...it's really too hot, kind of gross, and the person you're with is smoking too much and you're kind of disgusted by it, and then you notice that in the car next to you there's someone just flying along in a convertible and is just like having the best time and their stereo is cranked; we're on their stereo.

    It's mostly just Damian telling you to speed up or slow down, while they play different songs.

    ^^ I'd be the same if I could drive. dry.gif

    And this isn't my obsessed-ness, but my 9-year-old sister's friend said that she didn't like OK Go and thought that the HIGA video was crap.

    So my sister stopped what she was doing, made her face go strangely purple, and growled "What?" very ominously.
    She also threatened to throw the friend out of the house.

    Then she collapsed dramatically on the sofa next to me and cried "Why?? Why can't she see that OK Go are GENIUS????"

    My sister's brilliant biggrin.gif

    Done wink.gif

    Today I reminded her of it, and she said:

    "Yeah, well, when someone insults OK Go then I am going to get vicious!! I'd like to see her try and dance on treadmills and bloody well break her leg again....!!! "
    And her face was like this: dry.gif
    Quite spectacular.

    Hmmmm, if I ever decide to excersize on a treadmill, or even stand near a treadmill while someone else excersizes, I'll have to listen to it, or maybe sometime when I'm bored, and want to hear it... yeah... that one's more likely

    Well since we're on the subject of little siblings and their OK Go obbsessions:

    I taught my 2 year old baby brother to sing the chorus of Don't Ask Me, and the other day we were all at my grandmothers house, and my dad asked him to say grace and instead he started singing the song!!

    I want to put it on youtube so bad, but my step mom won't let me!
