Epic Sadness Melee
sushiesque: Shyness sucks. Don't make me start quoting Morrissey.
didnt mean: I'll counter your Morrissey with a Tindersticks Loneliness Blast! LEVEL 4!!!
sushiesque: I block, launch myself into the air, and land on you with a Devastating Jawbreaker Hopelessness Assault! Which I then follow up with an Abject Red House Painters Kick To The Shins!
didnt mean: Your attacks have filled my Ennui Meter! I can execute the Signature Burning Nick Cave Dramatic Romantic Imagery and Despair Turning Side Kick!
sushiesque: And I still have 4 Burning Sadness Points left!!! I could call in my tag team partner, Nick Motherfucking Drake!
sushiesque: holy shit I am overcome with woe
didnt mean: I picked up the Leonard Cohen 'Getting Laid, But Still Very Pensive' powerup.
sushiesque: I will use my remaining MP to cast a call spell for "Charm of the Highway Strip"-era Magnetic Fields
didnt mean: SIGUR ROS INTERRUPT!!
sushiesque: You forget that I am equipped with a Belle & Sebastian Gauntlet of Scottish Awkwardness!! Which drains you of social skills every time you attack!
christine is my favorite indie band.

Funniest entry by far. Gwynne's post though begs the question, if one were an indie band, what label would one be on? Let's start a conversation, people! If I chose one based on my personality, it would be Shelflife. But Constellation is my 1st choice due to the current roster. Band name: Your Friends and Enemies.

My label would be Polyvinyl cause I'm a rockin' mofo. SUPPORT INDEPENDENT MUSIC THIS 4TH OF JULY!!! Band Name: Violet (Purple) Don't get it? Look at your Crayolas, people.

here's an old one, sing along if you remember it:
monday you can fall apart
tuesday, wednesday break my heart
oh thursday doesn't even start
it's friday, I'm BRITISH AND DEPRESSED... ( http://haiku.fuzrocks.com/search.php3?term=british&column=all )
