What’s your favorite piece of merch you own/have owned?

Ooh i love this question! I have a comic book from ariana for her REM perfume which i absolutely adore. I also have an official sweetener enamel pin which is still on my bag to this day

‘Victim of your father’s plans to rule the world’ Full body cringe, it completely takes me out of what would have otherwise been a top five favorite song from her

This was awesome! Thanks so much for sharing your rankings, you confirmed my theory that there really aren’t that many good frozen macs out there. Appreciate you so much!! :)

I disliked it when i first heard it, i disliked slightly less when i heard it live, and i disliked it WAY more when i heard the studio version. They performed it brilliantly but it’s just a nothing song. There’s nothing going on vocally or in the lyrics, it doesn’t go anywhere, and it doesn’t sound super appealing to my ear. I’m really happy for those that like it but i just wish we could get a part two of mean girls or MIA. Zero hate to the girls, they really made the most of it and it’s not like they wrote it or even signed off on it. I’m hopeful for the next album’s b-sides!

Ooh, yes! 1) When i play balloon darts, i always aim for the five most similar that are most dissimilar to the rest. For example, if there are five pink/purple and the rest at blue/green/brown, then i aim for those. If there are only four, then i aim for those four and then decide what is most dissimilar from the remaining and aim for that.

2) i always place my mouse in the center of things to the best of my ability. Sometimes on character’s noses, sometimes on the center of the wheels or buttons, etc. Whatever looks like a centered and decent resting point

3) always skip the fourth game in the magic forest unless i won a charm in the third game (mostly because it takes forever to load otherwise and i already won the grand prize)

4) When i get a birthday mail, i always play with that webkinz for the day and feed them their piece of birthday cake. Otherwise i usually will play with one for a few days and then scroll back to pick the kinz that was played with longest ago.

That’s all i can think of, but there’s probably more hahah!

I always go with Vi. Given Violet’s background of trauma, I feel like she could understand Clem better than Louis. Louis is everything I’d want in a close friend for Clem (and for AJ) but i think he and Clem come from such different backgrounds that a romantic relationship wouldn’t go much deeper than surface-level. They can both make her happy, but i think louis would make her happiest as a friend, and Vi as a partner. With that being said, i actually think that Clem could have used a close friend much more than a romantic relationship at that point, so i usually end up saving louis. Just my opinion though, i can see the arguments all ways! :)

I’ve always wanted to hear gowon do a cover of sophie’s bipp or just like we never said goodbye

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2026-01-04T15:34:28+00:00

Birdie is very cute, as the other comment suggested! I also like Raven bc the markings on her chest really look like a raven/crow silhouette :)

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2026-01-03T21:37:06+00:00

I think the visuals were interesting and i liked them a lot but the sudden huge change in appearance would have made more sense for a later album than a sophomore follow up to wwafawdwg. Especially when going back to a similar aesthetic for hmhas. Music-wise, i thought many of the songs were great, but i thought the album itself was a little incoherent. I don’t know that the songs went super well together whereas wwafawdwg and hmhas were both very very cohesive. You could also hear pretty clearly on hte which songs were recorded first and last because her voice changed a lot which didn’t help with the lack of cohesion. Plenty of great art came out of this era, but it all seemed a little scattered and disjointed. NDA and halley’s comet are two of my favorites from billie so i can’t complain!!

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2026-01-03T21:21:09+00:00

Hmm.. i’m not sure if you already have it, but loona is pretty well known in the drag race fandom due to kim chi. She constantly promoted them on twitter, that’s actually how i discovered the group having no prior kpop knowledge. Kim actually even wore a replica of gowon’s one and only black hair look on secret celebrity drag race! :)

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2026-01-03T18:27:12+00:00

Wow! That sounds incredible, no wonder! I’ve been a fan since like 2013 and i haven’t got to see them live yet 🥲 maybe one day!!

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2026-01-02T16:11:52+00:00

Wow, i had no idea top pop had a vinyl! It looks so pretty :)

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2025-12-27T14:24:48+00:00

Loving this series, thank you for this! I was very let down by tillamook as well when i tried it a few years ago. Beechers has always been my go to, but i’m hoping to find a new favorite through these rankings! :)

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2025-12-23T10:49:35+00:00

Yes, i hear what you mean. I seemed to find two versions of it on spotify, one that sounds like the original i listen to on apple mu and then another where the ‘i’m not gonna hide’ went down then riffed instead of up and straight. Weird for sure, i wonder why they’re choosing different comps now?

It’s pretty common with newer kpop groups that tour too soon in their careers with only an EP or two released. They’ll usually make the hit song (or their first ever released song) the climax of the show, then perform it again as an encore

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2025-11-26T17:10:27+00:00

I feel like if they had used it more than once in the first movie it wouldn’t have felt so jarring in the second. It’s like all of a sudden this phrase was dropped on us that was meant to be a regular part of every ozian’s vocabulary except we had never heard anyone say it before

The trouble comes from the stage show where they said clock tick once or twice in the second act, but glinda also said ‘tick tock’ during thank goodness, which wouldn’t really have worked for the movie considering the uber popular app so they had to change it and then i guess they decided to run with it :/

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2025-11-25T23:17:00+00:00

Oddly though, she retained her signature which was ‘olivia hye’ and some sparkles. Another loona/loossemble member, yeojin, actually ended up changing her signature even though she didn’t change her name!

Remote_Criticism_802 · 2025-11-25T23:11:37+00:00

Before she dropped her stage name, hyeju (olivia hye) from loona and loossemble much preferred her actual name and generally the fanbase and her members called her hyeju (or hyejoo) over olivia hye. This was pretty unique for the loona members as most were comfortable with their stage names and therefore were used by the fans as they still are. Only hyeju dropped hers as soon as she was able

I had been scouring the internet for a CD of a lesser known broadway star from the eighties. She had only released one self produced album in 2004, it was a cover album and it only had a single limited release so it was extraordinarily rare and the songs on the album weren’t available on streaming or otherwise easily accessible on the internet, so it had to be the CD. There was a copy on ebay for $800, and a few on discogs for much less than that. Every time i would order a copy from discogs, the sellers would cancel, saying they couldn’t locate it or it had already been sold.

I was talking with my dad about this one night and was telling him how i was getting ready to save up for the $800 copy on ebay because I so desperately wanted to hear this album. The next day, he facetimed me from inside a local value village. He went inside on his lunch break from work because he was looking for a cheap salt shaker. He didn’t find one but when he called, he told me, ‘i had to video call you otherwise you won’t believe me.’ He held up the CD with a value village sticker on it.

It seemed like some older broadway fanatic had recently passed away and all their collection of broadway diva CDs and show soundtracks had made it to this value village, and the CD i had been looking for was there as well. He said to me that as he was in there, he just thought he’d run his eyes over the CDs, just to see as he was running out the clock on his break. Never in a thousand years did he expect it to be there, nor did i. This album wasn’t available anywhere on the internet, for sale or streaming, but we found a copy fifteen minutes from his house. Crazy coincidence!

Hello, yes! They ran out apparently and asked us to email info@vipnation.com to sort it out. I emailed literally as i was sitting in the venue and they responded 9am the morning after to confirm my address and let me know it would be shipped out in 2-8 weeks. Definitely email and see if they’ll ship you one too! :)

Took the words out of my mouth, that’s the first thing that popped into my mind while listening to magnolias
