First thought upon waking up this morning:
[Sniffs pillow case] I need to start using a laundry detergent with a manlier scent.
Best gchat conversation this month:
[Discussing rejected WILDEFIRE sequel titles]

Me: WILDEY WONKA
Scott: WILDEFEUD
Me: The game show
The five songs on repeat in my playlist right now:

I would sell my hypothetical firstborn right now for a:
Wintergreen Chip Frappe from my hometown ice cream parlor.
The most embarrassing thing I’ve done in the last 24 hours:
Watching the entirety of last night’s Bachelor finale with my roommates.
The most embarrassing thing I’ve ever done in my life:
My voice cracked for the first in eighth grade…in front of a crowd of 400 people. I was in mock government, reading my bill on hybrid cars to a “legislature” of other high school students in a packed auditorium. My voice cracked during the word “automobile.” I laughed with the audience, then tried again. Voice cracked again. Same word. More laughter. Nightmares forever.
If Karsten were a Disney character, he would be…
My answer:
Aladdin. Because I look good in parachute pants and I’m obsessed with my carpet.

You are SO Aladdin.
ReplyDeleteSeeing as how your "Single Ladies" video was such a hit, I propose that when WILDEFIRE becomes a bestseller, we're treated to a little "Good Vibrations". In a parachute pants.
Just saying.
LOL Wildshower totally sounds like a porno!!!! *dies laughing*
ReplyDeleteAlso, I second the Good Vibrations in parachute pants :)
I am thirding the Good Vibrations parachute pants dance :)
ReplyDeleteAnd wow, that does sound extremely embarrassing.
And then Marky Mark became the guy in The Fighter.
ReplyDeleteI wonder, Karsten from the Boston area - are you a Sports Guy reader (espn.com)? If so, perhaps you can channel your "Bachelor" interests into a running diary or the like. You know, in your spare time.
Title suggestion: WILDECARD
You can have that one for free.
Karsten's vlogs are truly "A Whole New World."
ReplyDeletelol, this whole post was great. and oh the scars we all bear from jr. high!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great post :) I love your honesty and humor. Good luck with the titling :)
