We Are Not Alone

Bouncing around the internet waiting to be tired enough to try sleeping.  Ran across this (do not ask me how; link soup is my only answer):

on tumblr

My friend didn’t want to be alone when she got her allergy shots this morning so I went with her and just before the needles started going in she grabbed me and said, “DISTRACT ME,” so I did the only thing I could think of and did a dramatic recitation of President Whittmore’s speech from Independence Day.
I’m not looking for praise for being an awesome friend and going despite my shot-phobia. But I think I deserve praise for having the whole speech memorized.


Which means I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON WHO HAS THAT SPEECH MEMORIZED!

This makes me a gleeful, silly creature.


ETA 11/9/12: Watching Teen Wolf.  The Coach gives this speech as his locker room inspiration speech.  It started up and I was like, "Wait . . . is he . . . really?  REALLY?  Show you have stolen my heart!"  So, yeah.  Apparently a lot of people like the speech!  We are very much not alone!
