"Why are all our heroes so imperfect..."
*UNI and CHERUB.. You girls rock my universe!*
About me:
"To get to Happy Town you can call your doctor, you can unscrew the child-proof bottle cap, pour yourself a glass of water..."
You Are 60% Cynical
Yes, you are cynical, but more than anything, you're a realist.
You see what's screwed up in the world, but you also take time to remember what's right.
You're so quirky, it's hard for you to tell the difference between quirky and normal.
No doubt about it, there's little about you that's "normal" or "average."
Quirky, offbeat, and even a little campy - your life appeals to a select few.
But if someone's obsessed with you, look out! Your fans are downright freaky.
Your best movie matches: Office Space, Showgirls, The Rocky Horror Picture Show
You are a pretty serious non conformist. You live a life hardly anyone understands.
And while some may call you a freak, you're happy with who you are.
Who I'd like to meet: Anyone with an open, unjudging heart and mind...
...For Ang...
... Uni just wants to have fun! ...
... The beautiful and sparkly, Charlie Don't Surf! covering Radiohead's "Creep" ...
... My own personal mermaid, Rose Harting, covering the beautiful "Sugar in my Bowl"...
... My precious pixie, Sasha, and The Shamrocks in LA and being "Happy Anywhere"...
... The amazingly sweet and talented, Tippy the Vegan performing her new masterpiece, "Madhouse" ...
