Re: This is how you can tell I live alone

That's nice and all, but it won't be the end of the world when you come out of the LazyTown closet.

You were right.
Especially not if the show suddenly became socially acceptable, because of some goofy internet fame.

"Oh, LazyTown? Yeah I'm only watching it for the memes."

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Re: This is how you can tell I live alone

Even though I'm a kid. I'm 11. and I think thats a little old for a kid to be watching a show made for preschoolers, but that cant stop me! I feel like its less weird for me, but seeing all of your experiences, I think thats true.

Re: This is how you can tell I live alone

I'm almost 19, but I do enjoy kids shows a lot, this being one of them. I'm pretty open about the stuff I like, heck my whole room is dedicated to my Disney collection, which has a lot of Lion Guard things in it.

I'm in my early 20s and my room is full of Monster High dolls, My Little Ponies and Disney plushies.

Oh I like The Lion Guard too! My fav character is Beshte

Yeah, I get how you feel. I'm not as open with LazyTown as I am with Hamtaro/Pokemon/Disney. I mean, at least you could argue the others could be somewhat enjoyable for all ages, but it's much harder to explain why you're into a preschool show when you're in high school

Re: This is how you can tell I live alone

It's odd how some kids media is more 'acceptable' to enjoy as an adult than others. For example, suggesting the Lego Movie (a great movie) to my fiancee's family had them saying no, because it's for kids so they shouldnt be watching it. Yet they will happily settle down with a Disney movie?

To be honest I think it's more childish to not watch 'childish' things for fear of being childish. As C.S LEwis said: “Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”

a bit long sorry. But I love that quote

Re: This is how you can tell I live alone

I made a huge mistake when I first joined the fandom posting memes everywhere on snapchat and facebook where everyone from my high school is in because I thought it would be socially acceptable since it was a huge meme and I sadly regret it now, I tried my best to keep it to myself but I was excited with the fandom and I didn't know what to do then and I got bullied a few times and it carried on to later on, in fact the last time a few months ago some boy was threatening to get someone on me to "get me to stop" and he one of the "friends" I lost then I went on a long rant confessing and thinking I should get out the meme and "let it die" cos I was so offended and a in that day a girl was giving me abuse, it was heartbreaking I tried to not say i really enjoy the show and the fandom (I tend to keep that private) and i said it was only for the memes, the boy said he was only helping me looking back i think hes right but the girl was giving me a lot of hate for the memes and i had to say it was for the memes but she got triggered at the m word, school is starting back and im planning on being mature, dont get into anymore drama (I was in alot even before lazytown which being in the fandom helped a lot) and grow up be a better person and apologize to the people i've done wrong, its really tough and hard and im actually kinda scared to go back incase anyone notices the whole lazytown forever and it gets worse ;(

Re: This is how you can tell I live alone

I'm so sorry to hear of people being bullied for something they enjoy.
I was bullied for having a fringe!! that's how truly and utterly pathetic bullies are. Also, I refuse to subscribe to the cliché "be nice to bullies, they have a sad homelife". Unless you have tourette's, you CHOOSE what to say and CHOOSE how to act, for those are the only 2 things it's within you to control.



There will ALWAYS be jerks in life I'm afraid, but there will also be some great people and truly great moments!



School isn't life, it's a temp office job, with REALLY nice holiday time ;)

Re: This is how you can tell I live alone

Yeah, thats true. I may have lost a few people but I gained new ones at the same time. And that's something I look forward to, finding and talking to people who will accept every part of you... even if you have an interest for a kids show.

Yeah... people will heavily judge this or anything really, but there will be those who will find it really cool that you enjoy it and etc.

i gotta say i really agree and relate to you here, my closest friends are ok with lazytown and the fandom are like a huge family here

[Graverobber]

Impressive!

Re: This is how you can tell I live alone

Can't believe this was posted on ten years later, I had almost forgotten about it. It's all gone really, and I miss only one thing, my official soundtracks because the music will always be the magical part of the show for me.

Do you still live alone?

Re: This is how you can tell I live alone

Do you still live alone?

Nah, I was only at that place for like 2 months, I got a scholarship to go to Law school in Ohio, dropped out fast it wasnt for me,l yeah I felt really lonely at the time and LazyTown is my ultimate safespace (unless I'm getting judged. Now I live with my patents, my Grandma, and a friend of mine. I've had quite few good jobs, mostly in Accounting, but lost them all due to like 6 year long heroin addiction. Never married, no kids I had sexual problems with premature ejaculation when I wasn't high and it completely discouraged me and made me hate women. That"s why I love Lazyown, beautiful young girl with amazing talents an voice at an age where sex wasn't a consideration. I was always an athiest and decided I wanted to take a stab at my fantasy to become a serial killer so I could have sex with beautiful women without any anxiety (because they would be dead. I tried to strangle the first one in the front seat of my car car but she fought for her life, honked the horn opened the door /I lured her with drugs I didn't have. Long story short I made the decision to give up on women and try to change. I started praying to try to change, and long story short God stated talking to me to get me to honest and to realize I'm not allowed to try to kill women to fufilll the only dream I had ever reallly. I slowly had tio give up a serious relationship unless one can be ok with the real me. I was diagnosed schizophrenic, been clean off heroin for a good while, but now im into doing meth and going on porn binges to kill that bad part of me that made me a dangerous person. Jullliana made the most amazing music, she was unbelievably beautiful too, and best of all, she was the only girl in town. she's like my dream girl, so pretty and talented and I don't get the sexual attraction that makes me secretly hate a woman. I had so much LazyTown gear I collected and years back now my Mom found it and threw it all away without saying anything, she probably thought I was masturbating to a little girl like some wierd heroin addicted chimo. The bitch, I really miss my The Album and The New Album, I'm a diehard fan of the music and proud about it. Imagine 3 college sophmores hosting a cake bake with cooking by the book on the repeat in the apartment as a treat for me. I need it back, I'm in a great point in my life, most my friends are homeless, I'm in mental health court. I do drugs whenever I have the opportunity and find it hard to care if I live or die.

TLDR:

If you thought this was creepy for a grown man living alone to do ten years ago, you were right, I'm creepy as hell and officially crazy, but not in the way you would think. I wished she was my daughter, then I would feel happy and complete.

Anyways bro good to meet you, what's your story? I haven't really talked to LazyTown community since around that time, I got banned for getting pissed at or trolling the chimos on the LazyTown IRC channel. Yeah, hope those guys are long gone, they were shooping her face onto underage looking teen porn pics, questionable activities, I really don't her sexualized, she's like an Angel in those first two seasons.
