YKYOWLMW...
-you're just killing time on facebook, and you randomly type "Max von Essen" into the little search bar... AND A PROFILE COMES UP. You decide against friending Max von Essen, because it will probably terrify him... but then you start typing all the cast members' names into the search, and you immediately come up with a facebook for Mike Evariste, which is also really exciting... and Trafton, Haviland, Megan McGinnis, Ali Ewodlt, Ann Harada, Leah Horowitz, Adam Jacobs, Nehal, Jeff Kready, Aaron Lazar, Minarik, Lea Salonga, and Drew Sarich... then you have a ministroke and die of... something. DO... NOT... TRY... TO... FRIEND... RANDOM... ACTORS... LOONY... |
||||||
| mastachen |
^I was so close to doing that. I hit the friend button on Lea Salonga's profile, but I was too scared to confirm it. My profile picture is of me and Lea Salonga from June, and I thought that might have been a tad creepy. | ||||||

I WANT TO BE MIKE EVARISTE'S FRIEND.
LOOK AT THIS. WE ARE FRIENDS. |

Just so you all know, I think I'm guilty of every one of these to some extent or another:
You hum a song that nobody else in your group knows, and everyone automatically assumes it's from Les Mis, because you rarely sing anything else. You wear red and black almost every day. You think God came to earth in the form of Philip Quast. Your fictional crushes are on Marius and Enjolras. Your "movie-star" crushes are on Michael Ball/Mike Maguire/Anthony Crivello/Matt Cammelle/John Owen-Jones/Philip Quast/etc. etc. You realize that if you loved someone famous-mainstream (Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp) half as much as you love the men mentioned above, your room would be covered in posters of them. You make your own posters. (Now Enjolras watches me as I sleep ...) You desperately want an Enjolras vest. Every time you go to work and they make you sweep the floor or stock shelves, you sing "Castle on a Cloud" to yourself. You consider being Javert for Halloween. You consider being Javert for Halloween, even though you're a girl. You consider being Javert even when it's not Halloween. Every time an exciting occurrence is one day away, you sing "One Day More" all day. ALLLLL day. You cry when you find out that Les Mis is closing on Broadway and your mother won't let you go. I think I'll stop now. Sorry if any of these have been posted before ... there are so many, I can't remember all of them! 
Love, Cosette |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
^^Been there for almost every one of those. Back in high school, I used to dress up as Javert every week during 'Spirit Week' on 'Decade Day.' When people asked what decade I was supposed to be, my answer was generally "The 1830's, DUH." And then silently abhored all the kids who asked if I was dressed as Abe Lincoln. WHAT?? | ||||||
| Electricity24601 |
Lesmisloony, you rock Can we be friends?
|
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Of course! You're on a Les Mis forum, that's the only qualification I look for!
|
||||||
| EponineMNFF |
Omigosh Max von Essen has facebook! I totally want to add him. *Confliction* | ||||||
| lesmisloony |
This is his profile picture. I think it's... funny? Or something. |
||||||
| herkind |
Um, what about if random actors friend you? I joined a group a fan created for Haviland Stillwell and she friended me. (I happen to adore her and wonder how in the world did she not get cast as Scarlett O'Hara in the Gone With the Wind.) Yet I still feel like a stalker... |
||||||
| EponineMNFF |
OMIGOSH SHE HAS HER OWN FACEBOOK GROUP?
*Joins* *Stops spamming the thread with squees* |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
ME TOO. | ||||||

| curlyhairedsoprano32 |
OoOoOOOOOOoOOh I want to friend random Les Mis actors on Facebook!! Except my mommy would prob'ly kill me ... I love bonding with fellow Miz-freaks ... teehee
OOH can I add one more thing to the list? (Happened to me yesterday) You see a picture of the statue of liberty and the position of her arm automatically makes you say, "OOH she's like Enjolras ... with 'one more day before the storm' ...." Then you slap yourself. 
Love you all, love this community! <3 Cosette |

PS curlyhairedsoprano91 is the same person as curlyhairedsoprano32 ... I just messed up my other account and couldn't get it back ... so I'm back. =) | ||||||
| lesmisloony |
Let's see how pathetic my life has become.
Today I... hung up my Les Mis wall clock (at last). set up my mouse on my Les Mis mousepad (despite the fact that, having a laptop, I rarely--actually almost never--use the mouse). joined the Haviland group in hopes she would friend me. received that DVD with the '35 and '52 films, began to squee ear-splittingly, and immediately sat down to watch the '35 one. decided to recap the '35 one for fanfiction.net... eventually. started two more fanfics that may never be finished, and am now sitting on a third. went to my French Lit class for the first time (meaning it was the first class) and physically restrained myself when the prof mentioned we would be reading some works by Hugo. Why d'you think I signed up in the first place? ...in fact, I'm probably going to major in French, being a ridiculous francophile, and it's really all because of my LM obsession, which started back in the eighth grade and put me on this path... went to German class. I'm taking German because I had one open class to fill, and because *Marius* knew German, French and English, so why shouldn't I? physically restrained myself from starting on the '52 film until I've finished my recap of the '35 one. juggled with the idea of purchasing the various Cosette sequels, just for kicks. Would that be an insult to Hugo? Wait--which is a truer sign of fandom: buying the books because they're related to LM (loosely, I know) or refusing to buy them because they insult LM? pondered that for a while. daydreamed about Montparnasse (I swear I'm not kidding) during my two boring classes. started planning out some Monty LJ icons. checked this forum repeatedly for new posts. posted this.
|
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Aaand I've spent all the time since my last post browsing bunches of LM sites looking for Monty pictures. Only found the full picture from my icon that I didn't already have. We the people want more Monty!
Found this, though: http://nettrash.com/users/salatrel/monami.htm Annyway... I'd like to add that my last post was just before noon, meaning I've spent almost five hours this way. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME? |
||||||
| curlyhairedsoprano91 |
What's wrong with you? ... Um, you're a perfectly sane Misophile.
I love how you're going to major in French because of Les Mis ... when I hit college, I'm going to resume my study of French ... (because of Les Mis)... My mother doesn't seem to understand my obsession. She thinks the makeshift posters on my wall are strange ... I don't think it's strange. Enjolras is my boyfriend, he belongs in my bedroom. Marius, too. Teehee. Love, Cosette |
||||||
| eponine5 |
I forgot to say this at the time, but for Christmas I got a clock really similar to the one you posted a picture of! You know you're obsessed with Les Mis when you have a ten hour art exam (covering two days), and you spend the entire time listening to only Les Mis music...and when the exam is over you haven't reached the end of your Les Mis playlist. |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Um... has anyone else seen the photos/videos of Norm Lewis in The Little Mermaid?
... It really made me double-take. I sorta recognised the name when I clicked the link, but it didn't occur to me that this was ~Javert~ until I'd actually watched a few seconds of a video clip from the cast... and I was like, "GOOD. LORD." And then I dissolved into a fit of giggles. Ahem. YKYOWLMW... you have a little mini hissy fit because all the France-related history classes are full, and then decide you'll just have to wait until *next* semester to take a history. Because if you can't learn around 19th century France or the French Revolution, then you're not even taking the class! So there! *sticks out tongue at the uni in general* ETA: Just got this off Orestes's Slashy Clue Generator: "The culprits were Pontmercy and Montparnasse, on the billiards table in Corinthe, with Jehan's love letters." And then I died of giggling and squeeing at the same time. |
||||||
| EponineMNFF |
You know you're obsessed with Les Mis when you see The Little Mermaid because Norm Lewis is in it.
You know you're obsessed with Les Mis when in your European history class, whenever the teacher starts talking about barricades, the ENTIRE class turns around to look at you. YKYOWLMW when everybody just assumes you're an expert on everything French. Haha. Such a lie. Though you do have a fabulous time at French week. |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Did you really? I'm kind of mildly stalking it the best I can from NC. 'Twas my favourite movie when I was a wee little girl, and I'm practically *itching* to see how it works on a stage... I did happen to notice that ol' Javvie doesn't need to put his shirt back on if he doesn't want to... Major digression. But... it's LM-related... because of Norm! Durr. |
||||||
| EponineMNFF |
Yeah I did see it--the day before I saw Les Mis. It was a fun show, but a very poorly behaved audience. (Children and adults who talk through the overture.)
Yeah. Norm didn't look to shabby without his shirt. I noticed that too. I was like oooh go Javert. Haha I got another one. You know you're obsessed with Les Mis when you start shipping Javert/Snape. |
||||||
| mastachen |
YKYOWLMW...
well, I told my new Honors teacher that my favorite book was Les Mis. And he says to the rest of the class, "it's a really thick book, and they make a musical out of it. *takes a deep breath* Valjean, at last, we see each other plain." I almost died from delight. Then the person next to me said her favorite book was Wicked. He asked, "What's that?" The girl, "Well they made a musical out of it too." The Professor, "Sorry, not familiar with it." I silently cheered. |
||||||
| curlyhairedsoprano91 |
I love your Professor. Automatically. Love, Cosette |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
YKYOWLMW...
you start casting people as Amis in your head. Like, on the bus. Actually, there's a girl at work I think would be a pretty good Eponine. She could be sorta prettyish, but she's really thin, has huge, dark eyes, and is actually kind of creepy-looking... Then, there's a guy at work who *could* be some kind of Montparnasse-ish. Meaning, not ideal, but it would be passable. You have NO IDEA how much I want them to get together. |
||||||
| flying_pigs |
Ummm, curlyhairedsoprano91, your signature is a *little* too big. | ||||||

Here, these should help. =)
Btw, guys, is mine too large? I just realized it's almost the same size as some of curlyhairedsoprano's were. |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
I think yours is fine, Quique. It's only one picture; that's probably the difference. | ||||||
| curlyhairedsoprano91 |
*cringe* Sorry guys. Haha I didn't even look at how it came up in a post till now ... too big, yes. Apologies. And thanks for the mini versions. Will attach.
<3 |
||||||
| curlyhairedsoprano91 |
Okay. Is this better?
Again, I'm sorry. I'm really really new to the world of foruming in general ... I hope I'm not being too much of a creep.  *sigh*
Anyway, I hope this one is more ... manageable. Love, Cosette |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Don't be afraid of the forum! People here know a lot and are kinda intimidating at first, but so far *I* like you just fine.
Actually, I'm pretty new to this forum myself (started posting around... September?... I think)... but I was at the old Le Cafe for years... This is what you call a digression. |
||||||
| mastachen |
^You've been a member here longer than I have. I've never noticed. 
|
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Oh, yeah, I actally made the account ages ago... don't remember why... But I didn't know there was a forum here until a google search for "Montparnasse and Eponine" managed to bring it up somehow. | ||||||
| EponineMNFF |
Hahaha. Best google search ever.
I've got another one. Haha. YKYOWLMW you get into an argument with a teacher because he is so sure that Les Mis takes place during the French Revolution. You argue for an entire class period and end up embarrassing him in front of the entire class when he finally goes to look it up. Bwahaha. |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
SCHOOLED. I was gonna put "pwned," but "schooled" seemed more appropriate somehow. YKYOWLMW... you do google searches for "Montparnasse and Eponine." |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
YKYOWLMW...
-you spend most of your Saturday watching the latest LM movies from eBay. And screaming at them when they displease you. -you are sitting on your lofted bed, messing with your OGC and your new souvenir program, and the souvenir program falls to the floor. Distraught that it should become dirty, you jump down to retrieve it... and accidentally land on it, which rips the front cover in half. You scoop the pieces into your arm, stare at them in horror, and begin to sing "Bring Him Home." -but you aren't too worried, because you have another souvenir program just like it from seeing the show in June. You only bought this one because it has the JOJ insert, which remains unharmed. -you read "Demain des l'aube" in French lit, and when the professor asks who the woman Hugo refers to might be, your hand shoots into the air. You: (translated from French) Well, it's probable that it's his daughter Leopoldine, who drowned. Prof: Yes, that is what many think. (to the whole class) But what of the other women in Hugo's life? (Your hand shoots right back into the air.) Prof: ...Yes? You: Hugo had many lovers. There was Juliette Drouet. And there was his wife, Adele Foucher. Prof: ... You: I like Victor Hugo a lot. Prof: ...yes... we can see that. -you cannot freaking wait until 2009, because you have to see Les Mis many, many more times. And you have to drag friends to it. -you currently have five movie versions of the film, and want more--you haven't yet found one that was satisfactory to show your friends! Though the Jean Gabin one is probably as good as it's going to get. -you print out a list of all the LM films ever (so many!) and begin checking them off. This could very well take the rest of my life. |
||||||
| EponineMNFF |
LML, you are my hero.
I started laughing so hard at the Bring Him Home thing. My signed playbill has almost been destroyed by spilling soda cans--I would have had a panic attack if it had been. |
||||||
| Quique |
When Alanis Morissette's "You Oughta Know" comes on and you picture Eponine singing that instead of "On My Own."
Now that'd make her truer to the novel, lol. |
||||||
| herkind |
LOL. Or "I'll be Watching You" by the Police. Or should Javert be singing that about Valjean? 
|
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Well, this is what I've been doing for a few days instead of homework...
http://www.angelfire.com/musicals/lesmisloony/adopt.html I really need to get a life. (This whole post counts as a response to YKYOWLMW...) |
||||||
| Fantine |
What can I say? We could expect a Montparnasse like that from you 
|
||||||
| Paula74 |
Pictures Javert dreaming of Jean Valjean's embrace every night and crying, "Baby, baby, please...." *dies after laughing and choking on sandwich* |
||||||
| Fantine |
I love that song.... Or should I say loved because you ruined it just now.
|
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Aww, come on, it's totally accurate. Despite reminding me of a character from an anime that was on when I was little... PICTURE: 
Hahahahaha... anybody else remember that show "Sailor Moon"? I had to google it to figure out what I was thinking about... But see? That's Montparnasse-ish, that is. Except the goofy glasses. Anyway, that's what my little Monty reminded me of... Ahem. Carry on. |
||||||
| Quique |
I've always thought Monty's costume in the musical was the most interesting from the rest of Thenardier's gang. Especially the greenish coat-thingy, and if I remember correctly, tight pants. | ||||||
| lesmisloony |
Mike Evariste had a yellowish coat and giant fuschia lapels, but you're right concerning the other Montys I've seen... | ||||||
| herkind |
That was exactly the line I was thinking of. If I knew how to do a Javert/Valjean picture montage to that song I would.
|
||||||
| curlyhairedsoprano91 |
Hoooly crap. I love this soooo much. Ahh. AHHHHHHH. Loony, you don't have an adopt-an-Enjolras? I do like your 'Parnasse, though. Love, Cosette |

Hahah! Parnasse is fabulous, though I wasn't expecting any less. Hahaha. Your description is even better!
Fabulous! |

You get really annoyed when you try to call your chicken on Harvest Moon Grantaire, but theres no space so you have to write Grantare. I've lost all hope of having a chicken named Montparnasse =[ |
||||||
| curlyhairedsoprano91 |
WOOHOO! Broadway Abridged! 
Love, Cosette |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME WHEN I WAS MAKING THE DOLLIES. It wouldn't let me type "Grantaire," so I had to put "CapitalR," but then when I copied the HTML on my page I was able to change it to fit that last letter... somehow...
But if it fits "Grantare" it has to fit "Parnasse"...

You know you're obsessed when you go SQUEE! when you find that there's a HUGE Les Mis reference in your favorite Detective series (in a book of The Inspector Lynley Mysteries if anyone knows these series).
Reference goes somewhat like this: The butler humming a big song from Les Miserables. Teeheehee! |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
YKYOWLMW...
-you consider reading those books just for the sake of the LM reference. -there is a poll in imdb about your favourite actor ever nominated for five Oscars, and you vote for Frederic March because he played Valjean in the '35 LM movie. And was hot. And then you freak out because he's the LOWEST RATED in the polls. Plebe voters! -you get bored in lecture and make a bunch of LM LJ icons instead of doing the normal bored things like... surfing the internet or sleeping. |

-you're trying to find a place on campus, get horribly lost, and end up in a place you've never been before. It's a brick path with two tall brick walls on either side--really quite narrow and claustrophobic--but you can just see the roof of a dorm over the top of one wall. Then you think... This is just like Valjean's supersecret passageway! And none of the people on either side know it's here! Only the birds flying overhead can see it! And I'm going to come to a door at the end... and be in a gardener's hut... or whatever. I've entered a wormhole! I'm going to end up in Les Mis! At the Rue Plumet! And then... at the end of the path... is a football stadium. Meh. (By the way, I actually had this thought process. Not entirely seriously, mind, but it all went through my head.) |

More tales from French Lit!

Prof: So. Continuing on with our lesson... (blah blah blah) Loony's Notes: Victor Hugo �tait �crivain; Napoleon III ne l'aimait pas-- QUOI QUOI QUOI QUOI IL N'A JAMAIS LU LES MIS MAIS IL EST PROFESSEUR DE LA LITERATURE FRANCAIS QUOI QUOI QUOI QUOI QUOI QUOI... |

-every time you hear someone mention the country Luxemburg, you think about Marius and Cosette. -every time your German or French Lit teacher mentions Napoleon, you say, "Vive l'empeurer!" under your breath. And if someone mentions any King Louis, you mutter, "Down with the Bourbons and that great hog Louis XVIII!" -you make verbose, rambly arguments for Marius and Cosette in various threads on this forum, quoting long passages from the Book and probably generally annoying everyone else. -upon eating a bit of baguette that wasn't properly wrapped up the night before, you can't help but say, "It's good! It's hard! It breaks my teeth!" |

YKYOWLMW... you get bored and make Montparnasse a facebook profile... just so you can list yourself as married to him.
Ahem. Anybody wanna be friends with "M'sieur Montparnasse" on facebook? (Hehe, all my existing friends are gonna be *really* worried for me when they see that status update...) |
||||||
| curlyhairedsoprano91 |
I DO want to friend 'Parnasse. But I can't, because having random Les Mis characters on my friends list would raise suspicion. However, I poked him.
|
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Did he poke you back?
(Seriously, though... I saw that first, and I was like... "I just made this thing half an hour ago, and already Monty is being poked? Ossum.") "Raise suspicion," eh? Hm. What if you were listed as married to him?
*waits for one of her facebook friends to mock her* |

Yeah he did.

Bumping!
You know you're obsessed with Les Mis, when you time how long things take by watching Les Mis in your head and evaluating how many scenes you got through. The other day I was on the bus from Gavroche's death to the beginning of the Finale (that was a LONG bus ride) and today, it took the guy at the restaurant from the opening of the show until I Dreamed a Dream to make lunch. |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
^^ I do that too!
Like, I always time "about ten minutes" by singing from "Alone I wait in the shadows" to the end of the show. Slowly. (Weird you'd bumped this topic, cos I'd come over to do the same thing...) YKYOWLMW... you are watching Hairspray, and you comment on how crappy some of the lyrics to "Without Love" are (though you love the movie, of course...) But seriously: Like a circle with no center / Like a doormark "Do Not Enter"? ANYway, one of your friends (who was being really argumentative and obnoxious) is like, "Well, Les Mis has bad lyrics too!" And you get very quiet for a moment. Then you say, very seriously, "Like what?" And rejoice when said friend can't think of any. (And you immediately think of the corresponding topic here, and try not to mention the eagle lines and whatnot...) |
||||||

^ AHahahahaha so good! Something really similar happened to me the other day.
This isn't really a YKYOWLM, but it's related to LML's post. Haha. In Harry Potter club (I know I'm cool; I'm the co-president too haha), we somehow got off topic and were talking about musicals. I was like "Oh I just saw the revival about a month ago and I'm so sad it closed." And she said, "Les Mis is okay. It's not the best show ever." Me: ............. You know what. It's okay. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Her: Yeah. Wicked is much better. Me: Okay. No. Not okay. *Points to the door* Hahaha I think I scared her for a second, but seriously. |

I put a picture of Marissa McGowan through the Rasterbator, and now she's on my wall. | ||||||

mastachen, you and your Marissa McGowan...
Actually, I saw a picture of her recently, and I realised... she's the amazing Eponine I saw back in June! I hadn't really thought about it since, but I was thinking about the cast I saw in January, and I was like, "Wait, I didn't see Celia or Megan McGinnis back in June... so who was it? Oh yeah, that really incredible blonde girl!" D'oh. We saw her at the stage door and told her she was possibly the best Eponine either of us had ever seen, and she was really humble about it. But that was back before I was on this forum, so I didn't really know anything about anyone in the cast and had no idea what I had experienced... I hear you saw her as Eponine AND Cosette, though. That takes range. |

| mastachen |
Yeah she's extremely talented... and hot!
I googled her once and she wrote a blog on some website about the first time she went on as Cosette. It was very interesting. Here it is: http://web.mac.com/jchipleonard/iWeb/Broadwaylivingsplash/Blog%20/1F7A0AD4-82E0-4CD2-A9A6-BB061401E9B9.html |

I just realised how much win that is.
That was adorable! Aw, falling off the turntable... good fun. Megan McGinnis told us similar falling-off-the-turntable stories... the thing's a menace! I hope those actors have good health insurance... Okay. Anyway. |

When you post a thread and poll comparing Michael Maguire's ass to Brad Pitt's (I think you guys have finally tainted me )
|
||||||
| lesmisloony |
When you know right away that Enjolrass is better than Brad Pitt. Without looking at pictures. | ||||||
| Mistress |
When you post random pictures just to watch peopel squeel and fangirl them (so much fun ). I was rather successful with my Quastpic..ok it was only one comment, but it was very satisfying nonetheless.

...When you're indirectly mentioned in a YKYOWLMW thread.
Because it was me being the squeeing Quastgirl, right? Now, let's do some math! ENJOLRASS > Brad Pitt. Class dismissed. |

YKYOWLMW your first post on this forum is proving that you are in fact obsessed with Les Miserables.
YKYOWLMW when you've read through this entire list and nod and "yep" to yourself because you do the same exact things. You know your obsessed when you're eating Conversation Hearts and you get one that says "One Kiss", and you immediately get hyper, remembering the line "One kiss, and that was all." from the Brick. |

| lesmisloony |
I already like you.

... When that quote makes you giggle happily because you think lesmisloony totally rocks.
When you're playing with your nephew and his Legos, and you see an outfit that's perfect for Valjean's National Guard uniform, so you start looking for a head for the little man and actually squeal when you find one with white hair.Then you start Javert, who you have to draw sideburns on. This progresses until you have a whole pocket full of Les Mis Lego men (including Montparnasse, lesmisloony!) ... When you pay your brother for the Lego men so he can buy his kid new ones since you're stealing all of his. |
||||||
| lesmisloony |
Aww, thanks... but you should know by now I'm an idiot...
I did that! With the Legos! They're back in my room at home! There's a barricade with ALFOR, and the Runaway Cart, and Every Day! And and and I stole all my brother's Legos to make them! And never gave them back. They're still on display on a shelf in my room. When I go home over spring break, I'm totally taking pictures of them and putting them online. |

YKYOWLMW...
your little brother thinks your hamster is afraid of Philip Quast. I know, right? |

Last night I dreamt that I was finally in some sort of semi-pro production of Les Mis. Even though I only had an ensemble part, I was uber happy. | ||||||
| Quique |
^ I truly think you will make it someday. You are super talented!
|

| Fantine |
I highly doubt it, but thank you! |

You have a dream that you meet Colm Wilkinson, and he is a midget. ... Or is that just a really strange dream? |
