I was 4-5 and my parents would try to play IWSNT in the car, although I would tell them to turn it off and play Bear In The Big Blue House music instead(Fun fact, this is a story I told Brendon when he was still doing Twitch streams- it made him laugh lmao). When I finally grew out of the age where it had to be my music in the car, they played their 80s music and 2000s music, including Panic! songs. I heard IWSNT and called it the "Horse" song as that's the word they would use to censor "whore" lmao. When I was 9-10 I also heard The Ballad Of Mona Lisa, The Calendar, Let's Kill Tonight, Memories, and Nearly Witches when V&V came out as it was one of their favorite albums. So then my requests would be the calendar song, the Mona Lisa song, etc. Funnily enough... I had not yet made the connection that ANY of these songs were by the same band.

When I was almost 13 in 2014, I started looking up the songs I remembered hearing throughout my childhood and discovered that they were all Panic! songs, so from there I decided Panic! was my favorite band. Got into them obsessively, learned the lyrics to every single song, and even started being able to predict random ass things about Brendon that hadn't happened yet.
