I've never screamed this much abuse at Roger before. Oh Roger, I love you more than life itself -- even with the blazer my mother just opinioned looks "Pratty" -- but you lose at life when it comes to a Brit winning Wimbledon. ;) I'll be cheering for you just the same next match, ~~when you~~ whether or not you win this.

Now, stop playing so well and let Tim win a set dammit! Fall on your face, get a blister, trip over your shoelaces, all is fair when it comes to Tim and Wimbledon. ;-) Come on Tim!

edit: Oh Tim, you wound my soul. I know it's not gentlemanly but I give you permission to sneak up behind Roger and bop him on the head with your racquet at the changeover.

And McEnroe likes the blazer. :p INTIMIDATION TACTICS. I like that better than the excuse of Roger having no fashion sense.

*amused at the umpire having to try three times to get the crowd to stop the Mexican wave*

edit: Hah, they've postponed the news until after this match. BBC I <3 you.

edit: Commentators advice to Tim:

"Just go over the other side of the net and slap him in the head or something."
"Yeah, take the Roddick approach to Federer."

*is dead with glee*

edit: Oh... Timmy.

edit: Boris looks much smarter this year. I'd be squeeing "BORIS" right now, if they weren't talking about the World Cup.

You might've noticed but this is *Wimbledon*. If this was an English exam, you'd lose points for going off-topic; as it is, you lose at life in my eyes BBC. :p

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I lovelovelove BBC's Wimbledon coverage. I did have to choose between watching the comforting ease of Roger or the nail-biting, life-shortening struggle that is Timmy and went with Timmy. Because hey, he could flatten Roger, Andy AND Mardy this year but if he won, I wouldn't care. This might be his last Wimbledon, which gives me sadness. :( The last one where he has more than a million-to-one chance of winning anyway, though I'm fairly sure I said that last year. And possibly the year before.

Maybe the Energiser Bunny's been giving him tips or something, I don't know. :)

TIMMY, I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU LOST THAT GAME. Put some effort into it!

I'm still hoping Roger's blazer was a first-match-only thing or that it'll get too hot for him to need it later in the week. Bless his dorkiness but it does look awful. It's on level with wearing socks with sandals or tucking your shirt into your jeans on the fashion faux pas scale. Then again, maybe he doesn't care and hey, I'm sitting here wearing a t-shirt that announces to the world -- in very bright multi-colour -- that "I'm not wearing underwear today!" On balance, perhaps I'm not the best person to be dispensing fashion advice.

Which doesn't mean I'm not going to use the icon because it's Roger + British slang, two of my favourite things. (Meant affectionately in case you look poncey up and go "Bzuh?" For me it's always been more affectionate than really rude. *shrugs*)

Henman, if you don't win points you won't win the match. Some friendly advice. PAY ATTENTION.

I have one -- okay two -- more days before I go to Cardiff. :-/ I really should be unpacking but I can't stop watching the train wreck that is Timmy. Argh, he should not be this stressful.

Hah, Roger's blazer. You are such a pansy Roger and it's cute but lose the blazer, please. Though you did blend in nicely with the weird Ralph Lauren outfits if that's what you were going for. They look tidy and all but the green made them much less noticable and isn't that the point?

I love that they've had Johnny Mac talking for ages, about everything under the sun though. Wimbledon's organisation during rain delays = love.

I knew this icon would come in useful.

edit: Okay, just *stop* Clo. You know it makes you miserable and you still go do it so quit it already. It could've been a gift from Ralph Lauren and he's wearing it not to cause offence, for godssake, and you know that and what *difference* does it make to you *anyway*, so stop thinking about it before you hurt yourself. Geez, I can be such a moron.

Talking to myself. What sign of madness did we agree that was again?

Current Mood: tired

I KNEW IT, I KNEW HE WAS GOING TO SAY "LANGUAGE IS JUST LIKE ALGEBRA" THE MOMENT HE USED THAT STUPID LINEAR GRAPH THING.

Language is totally not algebra. Am resisting the urge to tell Ferdinand de Sassure to do something extremely unpleasant and probably physically impossible. Mainly because he's dead and it would be a waste of breath, but that's not the point.

Stay out of my way today Roger. I'm feeling vaguely homicidal towards the country that produced Sassure and since he's very unhelpfully gone and died on me, you're the only other Swiss person I know to take my revenge out on. I have wrath. You have been warned.

Also? Totally not algebra.

...Moron.

Current Mood: aggravated

Because there has been a general slowness of my f-list today and since I'm not getting caught in comment-wars for once, sleep seems like a good plan. But it's still early. Too early for sleep really. So I'm sharing a bizarre picture of Roger I found today and going downstairs to catch the last couple of episodes in the Red Dwarf marathon currently showing.

( Ignoring Lindsay Lohan looking sultry beside him... )

edit: On my way to bed, when a comment from

fionaandlossi reminded me I hadn't watched the last few points of the Swizterland/Britain doubles match today. Went back downstairs to watch it, on the off-chance it'd be squeeful enough to deserve the effort and oh wow, I'm so glad I did. Roger climbing all over Yves and that's a pairing I should explore, really. And then at the net, Andy Murray leaned over and whispered something to Roger and there was glee on my part, oh so much. I'd just picked myself off the floor after dying with the squee at that and then Roger got champagne dumped all over his head while being interviewed and I had to die with squee again at his adorable, champagne-soaked expression.

There has to be caps of this. Many many caps. So much love. I don't even care that they beat us -- though part of me hates that I won't get to see Roger vs Murray -- because we got to see Roger being bouncy and cute and he's such a dork when he wins, it's quite adorable.

Going to bed to dream of shiny happy Roger now. :)

Is it possible to have too many Roger icons?

Discuss. :)
