The Downside of Being in Generation Kill Fandom

...I cannot listen to "Tainted Love" (which is, naturally, on my running playlist) without picturing Trombley singing the whoa-oh-oh parts.

If anyone else has a more awesome/embarrassing/awesomely embarrassing side-effect of being in this fandom, PLEASE TELL ME. ESPECIALLY IF IT INVOLVES EIGHTIES MUSIC.

PLEASE I CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE.

	Generation Kill is the ONLY reason why I find myself humming "Let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the floor". Drowning Pool pretty much only had one hit and it's not a very "hummable" song to that either. People simply stare at you when you find yourself humming that one.

	Ahahaha oh God, I don't think I've ever heard the actual song! But now clearly I am going to have to go track it down. DON'T JUDGE ME, ITUNES. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Okay, help, I need a Generation Kill primer, because I've never seen it, but having just fallen headlong into your Every Marine a Wolfbrother series, I need visuals, stat. grin (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 3 comments) (Show 3 comments)

	There is a fandom overview on crack_van, which links to primers as well as giving some basic explanations: Http://crack-van.livejournal.com/5468924.html Also, eeee yay! So glad you're enjoying the wolfverse! :D (My default icon is Brad sitting in the sand brushing his teeth. This one is Ray.)

	I am enjoying it so much, I have no words! I just read all of them. And then I had to go back to the first one again. And omg, omg, OMG. It's, like, custom-designed for my id. I am rolling around in this story like a cat in catnip. <3 <3 <3 (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	Oh, Trombley. For me the side-effect of being in this fandom is randomly quoting shit. Like, every time I happen to say "It's 10 am" for any reason, I mentally go, "don't you think it's time to change outta your pajamas?" and giggle madly to myself, no matter the context of whatever I'm actually trying to say.

	::grin:: Oh, fandom, the things it teaches us! (I'm still known among my friends, even these many years later, for my weird love of Canadian TV... thanks, Due South!) (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)
