HORRIBLY EMBARRASSING CONFESSIONS TIME:

I've never actually seen High School Musical, and it is the cheesiest thing in the world, but 'Breaking Free' (link leads to a YouTube video) manages to put tears in my eyes anyway. (EDIT: ...and making this confession appears to have snapped something inside me, because I am now dancing madly along to it. HELP ME, I'VE GONE INSANE.)

Although it doesn't make me weep nearly as much as 'Ever Ever After' does. I have seen Enchanted, but I'm really not sure whether that actually makes this any better.

NOW IT IS YOUR TURN TO CONFESS.

It's just so DRAMATIC and RIDICULOUS and I love it. *shameface*

If it makes you feel better, I secretly like Evanescence "Bring me to life."

Far too many of my guilty pleasures center around songs or stories with ridiculously melodramatic levels of emo.

Oh man, me too. If there are unexpected comas or people being beaten up by random druglords, I am ALL FOR IT. There should be a support group.

Melodrama-lovers Anonymous?

...can this group also support people who are Very Sorry but actually enjoy reading the occasional ridiculous m-preg fic? *shame* I can't help it, I know it's silly and nearly always ludicrously unjustified, but the over-the-top discussions of emotions in all those fics have a dark charm!

Over-the-top discussions of emotions? I think that qualifies you.

Personally, I like silly mpreg and have a story where James May mpregs Jeremy Clarkson and everyone shouts a great deal on my hard drive.

What. WHAT. I- I-- guh! A pregnant Jeremy Clarkson's mood swings would take out a large portion of the country. And the baby would be James May's hair on Jeremy Clarkson's face on a wee rotund baby body. I could not deal.

It's mostly stuck in the opening portion where Jeremy screams at James, both of them accuse each other of being aliens because how else do you get male pregnancy (er, I haven't figured that out yet), and Richard starts hoping he's gone mad and this is all a hallucination because that's the less scary option.

But you're right. This fic should not exist.

If only I could photoshop, this would be on its way to you right now, possibly clutching a little pyramid head plushie.

My confession: I totally bought that album when I was a nipper. In my defence, I don't listen to it anymore, but, yeah. I USED TO, ALL THE TIME, AND THINK ~DEEP 13-YEAR-OLD THOUGHTS~.

This is like postsecret, but for people whose dark and minty interiors are just secret suckings.

I think that may make you the coolest fan of that particular song in existence.

Ahaha, rad!

I remember seeing the lead singer interviewed somewhere, and lolling at this thing she said about how she once dropped a pet hamster down the side of a car dashboard, and it fell into the heating and died. She was about six and figured that was probably why all their songs were so wah wah bleeding hearts. That is a story that makes me wish I liked them more, just sort of on principle.

HAMSTER PAAAAAAAAAAAIN

I did exactly the same thing - and then, being the sekritly!emo person I am was thought that it was so much better and obviously about me :D

Similarly, 'Tourniquet'... now what was that about again?

I bought that album. I was 18. I HAVE NO RECOURSE.
