YKYOW You read your sisters school newspaper and in the "Editors Picks" section, and see a girl chose Oh No as her favourite album. You then demand your sister to help you meet this girl so you don't end up being the only person in Toronto who loves OK Go.

YKYOW…You spy an envelope on your office mate's desk from St. Albans School in DC and let out a squeal, and then have to explain said squeal to office mate, whereupon office mate says, "You're kind of obsessed, aren't you?"

YKYOW…you have a personal goal of trying to learn every OK Go guitar solo.

I like this goal. For the sake of research, go forth and listen to OK Go nonstop! :D

 

Oh, and math is 23!!! This happens so rarely to me. Excitement! :D

I'm actually pretty close, I just need to learn White Knuckles, WTF?, and Shortly Before the End.  If anyone knows how to play the part of SBtE that starts out |-3-2-3-2-| on the high e string, please let me know.

Edit: YKYOW: You are now afraid for your musical abilities of hip-hop, house, trance, and…the other kind of music that Damian and Tim mentioned in the Boston show, I can't remember what they said.

Dammit!  *curses mention of Damian grinding against a mic stand*

I'm weak today.

YKYOW you're taking a practice AP test and there's a poem in which this really old dude is described as "the last leaf on the bough in the spring" and talks about how this other guy would never want to be him because who would want to be said last leaf, it'd be disgusting, and all you can think is "…. if you should be the last autumn leaf hanging on the tree I'd still be there…" before wondering whether Dami happened to write the first half of said song after studying said poem (after all, he did write it in college…)

He wrote that song in college?

Anyway…

YKYOW you are hoping that there isn't already a band called the Spiders so you can use it once you find someone to play bass.

Edit:

Meh.  It turns out that the name is already taken.

YKYOW You go buy a ticket to This American Life just to see OK-Go..

YKYOW You are listening to a song by Fun. (btw I felt like I was cheating on the boys but that is a topic for another thread) and your husband says to you, "What ARE you listening to?" because he doesn't already know the song.  Also I was wearing headphones at the time.  That's right my long suffering husband can tell when I am not listening to OK Go even when I am wearing headphones.  Also he looked at my screen to see if I was listening to the new Spotify list as well.  I love him so much.  :)

Let me know if that works (if X can find Andy).

You know you're obsessed when…

Anytime other people you know see anything with OK Go or any of its members in it, they immediately call, text, e-mail, or otherwise message you to make sure you know.  Even if they're not fans.  Even if they haven't talked to you in months otherwise.
