Say Anything

 In your eyes, I am complete…

After seeing Pru getting Footloose and Love Dirty Dancing, I thought I’d play along with my take on Lloyd Dobler from one of the best movies of the 1980’s, Say Anything. This well known iconic pose of Lloyd holding his boombox (yeah, had one back in the day) above his head, belting out Peter Gabriel’s  In Your Eyes is one of movie’s most recognizable scenes. Lloyd found David’s Black Coat as the FREE prize on the Midnight Mania Board at Tiar.  He also picked up the FREE Group Gift Men’s Mesh Steel Blue Austin Tee by Cold Ash at their display at the Men Only District

When I want to run away, I drive off in my car…

I followed Pru and also played the gacha at [Since1975] and was lucky enough to get the rare BoomBox/C on my first try. (/me cracks his knuckles) My car, a Ferrari, (much better than Lloyd’s car in the movie) is a FREE gift at Sinsity Race Track. Take a spin around the track. It only takes 10 minutes.

♫ But whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are… ♫

  1. My favorite quote from this movie:

    D.C.: Lloyd, why do you have to be like this?
    Lloyd Dobler: ‘Cause I’m a guy. I have pride.
    Corey Flood: You’re not a guy.
    Lloyd Dobler: I am.
    Corey Flood: No. The world is full of guys. Be a man. Don’t be a guy.

  3. Lloyd Dobler: I don’t want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don’t want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don’t want to do that.

  5. But I always wanted to have this exchange with someone….

    Diane Court: Are you shaking?
    Lloyd Dobler: No.
    Diane Court: You’re shaking.
    Lloyd Dobler: I don’t think so.
    Diane Court: You’re cold.
    Lloyd Dobler: I don’t think I am.
    Diane Court: Then why are you shaking?
    Lloyd Dobler: I don’t know. I think I’m happy.

  18. /me thinks about sending Carson back in time out. -.-.
    DID NOT! They of course lived happily ever after, got married and had three kids and a dog that got into a lot of trouble. Though.. he probably lost all his hair and she wore those high waisted pleated pants for a decade longer than she should have.
