So. True.

Sarah S. made this and I just liked it. It is pretty damn true.

Ten things you NEVER say to a Backstreet Boys fan.



10. Never mention that you find BSB music annoying. (result) You will get an hour long lecture on why your opinion is WRONG!

9. Don't bring up AJ's stay in rehab. (result) You will get an hour long testimonial on why AJ's stay was inspirational and how he is now a hero and an idol to his fans, because he is and we love him!

8. Do not voice your love for Paris Hilton (result) You will get an hour long lecture on why Paris Hilton is a whore, complete with visual aids.

7. Don't say how much you love Nsync (result) You will get an hour long lecture as to why Nsync should have been named Nsuck followed by random acts of violence

6. Don't call the fan obsessive, (result) something violent might happen to you.

5. Don't make fun of any of the guys individually, even if you know one of them to be the fan's least favorite, a personal attack on one of the guys is a personal attack on all of them. (result) see above and multiply it by 10

4. Do not make up silly parodies to their songs. (result) You just end up showing you know their music a little too well to be a hater, and see above.

3. Do not imitate what the fan would act like if they were to meet the Backstreet Boys. (result) again with the violence.

2. They are not a band, they are not a boy band, they are not a fake pop group or any of the sort, they are a vocal group, or a vocal harmony group, do not address them as otherwise. (result) You will get a three hour long speech as to why BSB is considered a vocal harmony group, and not the others mentioned.

1. Do not wish death on any or all members of the group. (result) um.. you better have good health insurance, you're gonna need it.


Also, 'Rok and Kevvy, I was talking to Nicky today and I finally found the right word for our feelings towards the Boys. My brother has been calling it an "obsession" But that isn't true. THat isn't true at all. Because it is stronger than an obsession. And my brother asked me, "Well what the hell is stronger than an obsession" and I told him I didn't know. But I figured it out. We have an addiction. Unhealthy but God so good.

I did a little internet research to actually see if we qualify for a BSB addiction. Check it out. These are the signs to look for if you have an addiction.

Behavioral Changes

• Irritability and/or mood swings; Extreme temper (We get uber moody if anyone says anything bad about them. Wathc out!)

• Withdrawal from friends and social activities (Lets see, we waved good bye to Katlyn and Emily and BSB parties have taken over our little lives)

Changes In Work Performance

• Absences and tardiness, especially on Mondays (I skipped a day or two of school to look at the Boys or read fiction. I know NIcky stayed home the day after the concert *grins*)

• Declines in quality, timeliness, and quantity of work (Once the Boys came into my life my school work became quite secondary. I would rather look at them then do a report due the next day.)

• Disorganized behavior (My mind is too preoccupied with them.)


Physical Changes

• Change in appearance (How many of us have gotten a new hair cut to be like theirs? Or stopped biting our nails. Or started wearing yellow. Ear piercings too. Damn guys.)

• Looks tired, reports insomnia (Up all night looking at pictures of them)

• Frequent shaking and/or sweating (OMGOMG! AJ TOUCHED ME! IUNNO WHAT HE SAID BUT HE SAID SOMETHING! *crying and shaking enseues*)

• Slurred speech (OMG KEVIN TOUCHEDMEANDGEANDTHEBUANDMEomgomgomgScergaleeBAH!)


And if it isn't an addiction it is stronger. Damn guys, we got it bad. *grins* I am so proud.

I'm Bone Samantha Ann Stanley and I'm a BSBaholic.
I said it, and damn it is true.
