OK I really think I'm turning into the twins or 6. Examples? I was in Science and drawing "The Source" in pencil on my notes ,so this kid who sits next to me was using a calligraphy pen for notes. I saw that thing and looked at my friend Nicole who also saw 9, and knows my love of 6 starts to roll her eyes. I lean over to the kid and ask him to use his pen. After asking a lot he gives it to me and I took that thing and drew "The Source" much to the kids dismay saying "DON'T DRAW THAT PEN COST ME 6 BUCKS!!" So I gave it back. But I finished drawing! Also when we were in lab I kept dipping my finger in a container of water and drawing "The source" on the table. Nicole got mad and started to wipe it and I screamed "NO YOU MUSTN'T DESTROY IT!!"

Well, today I was chatting with one of my friends at school...She's an upper-classman, so we don't see each other too much. She told me that she finally got around to watching 9, as she's meant to for months now... And this is what she had to say.
"And the one-eyed one, as soon as I heard his voice I thought "You're John C. Reily! You're gonna be my favorite!" and he died and then I was all like "NOOOOOO! WHYYYYY?!" DX"

Okay ... thanks to last night, I finally have one of these.
I ordered my 9 movie artbook off eBay, and the FABULOUS seller threw in a ton of other Comic-Con freebies, including movie cards, stickers & a t-shirt. The shirt is a 2XL and far too big for me, but the material is so very soft that I decided to make it my new night shirt.
I wore it for the first time last night, procrastinated to the max, and didn't go to bed until 3am. It was then that I discovered something interesting: the t-shirt glows in the dark. My blurry-eyed 3am self nearly screamed the apartment down in shock at something GLOWING OUT OF MY CHEST as soon as I turned off the light.

While me and Commander were doing our 9 commentary, we were at the scene where 9 was exploring the Emptiness for the first time and sees that car with the dead mother and child in the seat. Commander: *notices the dead bodies* What was that? o.o Me: A dead mom and child. Commander: Really?! I thought they were sacks of potatos!!
lol It was hilarious. XD;;

^ Sacks of potatoes, eh *laughs so much she faints* JJ "GLOWING OUT OF MY CHEST" XDXDXDXDDDDD *laughs so much she faints* BTW ho was that ebay seller? NOW FOR MAH STORIES The less funny one: I was searching up Oscar nominations and every time I saw District 9 or Nine I would gasp in happiness than relise what it actually said than yell and throw somehing at the computer. Also, I was watching TV and explaining about 9 to my aunt and cousins. Then an ad for Nine comes on screen. AFter it finishes they look at me and my aunt says "It's about ragdolls, eh?" then i cracked up. Awesome story!!!: We were doing problem solving @ skool about motorbikes and this is what a kid wrote on the board: M.B (It stood for motorbikes but guess what I was thinking ) 2X9 2X5 1X2 (And others that I can't remember) I. Had. A. Cow. Nearly. I managed not to laugh but i was shaking with internal giggles and my friends are looking at me like "what the..." I would of told them but if I had opened my mouth i would of laughed my head off. Awesome, no?

@ madartist36, I know how you feel, I do that too! Except my one friend is more respectable about my Source drawings.
Speaking of whom, I meant to tell this story a few weeks ago when it happened, but it slipped my mind:
My friend and I were feeling pretty random, and it was echoey when we were in the hallway. So, out of sheer randomness, we had the idea to say a few things one right after the other, including 6's "SSSSOOOUUUUNNNDDD!!" thing, which was my idea. So when we got to our classroom, this happened: Me: Hi! Friend: Hi! Me: Helllooooo! Friend: Helllloooo!! Me: ECHOOOOOOO! Friend: ECHOOOOOO! Me: SOOUUUUNNDDDD! Friend: SOOOOUUUUNDDDD! Random person: Could you please stop that?
It was funny because o one really knew what we were quoting, though it would have been really awesome if someone had recognized 6's quote!

Here's my story!
For Halloween this year I went out as 6. I made the costume, painted my face gray with strips and everything. I worked my butt off on it and so i could have it finished the weekend before Halloween, so I could wear it to my babysitting kid's birthday party.
The day of the party, I got all ready, painted my face and headed out the door. The little girl I babysit only lives down the block, so I just planning to walk there in full costume but when your in a full 6 outfit it's quite a sight. I had people stop in cars to take a look at me. It was very awkward. Then I got to the party, you know what happened? None of the kids knew who I was. T.T None of them had seen the movie. But the little girl I babysat was thrill to see 6 at her party and we had a good time.
When I came home, I stepped into the living to tell my parents about the party, but to be greeted with my grandparents as while. My grandpa stared at me in shock and said, "GOOD LORD! Is that you, Victoria!?" And my grandmother started laughing. I spent the night trying to explain to the movie to them, only to get, "What happened to happy movies and musicals!?"
^^; And that's my story. Sorry that it's was so long.

Yesterday I received the 9 art book that I ordered from Ebay. As a result today at school I showed everyone and told them about how great it is. In Marketing I showed one of my friends, she starts to look through it. While she's looking I tell her "Don't mess it up, or you'll have to pay me $30!" so she gives it back. Later at lunch I showed more people, they thought it was fancy, but didn't care. Finally in my last class, history, I able to show someone else that has seen the movie who would appreciate it. And he did appreciate it. The two of us showed my other friend who I've been trying to get to watch 9. He looked through it and made odd faces and sounds in the process. Specifically on the pages that had 7, the catbeast, the Seamstress and other things he thought were weird. It was entertaining. Although he seemed interested by the way it looked, he said he probably wouldn't watch 9 because it is animated. Despite this I will continue to convince him to watch it.

Man, I hate when folk dismiss animation out of hand like that...
Aaanyway, I got a few odd looks at one of my uni tutorials the other day when I laughed (well, snorted amusedly) after a girl explained that she had moved in from a different tutorial group. We're Group 7; she was from Group 9.

I had one happen to me this morning sorry if it's not really that funny to you.
I was carpooling to school with a friend of mine. The radio show we were listening to was taking calls about anything the caller wanted to talk about. One lady came on and started talking about Avatar then asked out of the blue if they had seen 9 yet. This caught my attention so I started to listen closer. One of the show's hosts said they hadn't then the other came on and said he hadn't seen 7 or 8 yet either. That's when I started laughing. My friend looked at me like I was crazy all I could say was you had to see the movie to get it.
It was embarrasing for me but still funny.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! ::Huggles fallfaster!!!:: I think that was very smashing of you to walk around in your 6 costume. that makes me happy! I was bored one day, and decided to wear a towel on my head, and cover my left eye, to see what it was like to be 5! This was very cool at first... but then got annoying oO;

I want to go as 6 for Halloween this coming October, but this past year I went as 7 (shank button, white fabric, shield, red back-patch, skull-met, everything). No one really knew who I was, but some random kids saw my costume and went up to me saying things like "WOW!" I think mainly it was because of my skull-met. None of them had seen 9 though, so that was a shame, but it was still fun!

I wanted to go as 7 actually, but I couldn't figure out how so make the skull-met, so I changed to 6. I give you points for doing 7 though. That's major skills right there.
And I know how you feel about people not knowing who you are. I had a lot of 'Are you a prisoner?'. But the joy of being dressing up as a stitchpunk is that they're will be someone who would love it!
I visited a friend at her school on the friday before Halloween and she freaked out on me. That made my day right there. XD She was singing "Welcome Home" as I walked down the hall as my theme music.
