I accidentally omit words all the time!

I sooo didn’t have you pegged as an AJ fan. Do you know that I actually saw him once in real life? I worked at a Bed, Bath, and Beyond in Southern California (this was 2002-2003), and he came in to shop! I really only saw him walk by, but it was crazy. I haven’t seen that many celebrities in real life (and not at a concert or something).

You know when you’re thinking as you type, but you omit words by accident? Like, as you’re thinking, every word is there but they’re really not after you type it out. That’s what happened on that comment.

Aww, I was big Backstreet Boys fan in middle school. I did enjoy NYSNC too, though more so after No Strings Attached came out (come on, “Bye Bye Bye” is classic!).

I remember witnessing THE biggest fight between two girls over BSB vs. NSYNC. It was really funny, but kind of… scary? I’ve never such a big throw down over boy bands. But yeah, I was always a BSB girl. AJ was my favorite, haha.

That’s soo not how it happened. “Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays” came on at my birthday party, and you were like, “I’m going to marry that guy.” Elyse and I were like, “who?” So, you pointed out JC. I didn’t know anything about them, so you told me who they were and said you’d seen IWYB on that weird music video channel (The Box?). From there, I definitely took the ball and ran with it, because I’m more prone to obsession and you’re much more reasonable.

That Vegas show was like the happiest moment of my life.

I might have overused “like” in this comment.

Yeah, it just wasn’t meant to be. I’m still hoping for Justin, though. ;)

O-town was pretty good at first, and they were good in concert too!

Ha ha, I never had the bobble head, but I really wanted it. My walls were covered with posters. Pop is just so much fun.

Or like Rob Pattinson now is to me. ;) Lisa and I watched that Disney show soo many times. Actually, we spent most of our time watching NSYNC videos. I’d like to see you do those dance moves!

I thought that song was sooo scandalous. Really, it kind of is. And, pshh, I wouldn’t want Lance now even if he was attracted to women!

I like JT now too. He’s more of a serious artist, so I like to listen to NSYNC just for fun.

I’m so sorry for your husband, but he should be happy he’s getting exposure to all this awesome music. ;)

I had the too-cool-to-like-a-boy band attitude even while I still liked them! My friend and I tried to hide it from people, but after a while we lost our shame and just gave in.

We laugh now at how much money we spent on them. I probably would have wasted that cash on other stuff if it wasn’t them, though.

I loved Justin, but I thought Lance was more the type I’d like to marry. Ha!

Well, it’s an amazing story!

I don’t own any of JC’s solo stuff. I’m sorry things never really took off for him, though. He’s so talented.

Yay, a Lance fan! I hope they’ll at least do a few shows, even if they never do a full scale reunion.

Justin is very good on his own, but I think he’s more fun with the other guys around. I miss those days.

OMG! I luv JC 4ever!!!!

Our NSYNC obsession was not my fault! I remember watching the Merry Christmas Happy Holidays video at your house, and I didn’t know who it was, but you did, and then we both suddenly LOVED them. Those were good times. Especially the second Vegas concert. Ahhhh memories!

I was TOTALLY going to marry Lance, too! While it broke my heart a little when he came out, I was happy he was happy. I mean, if it’s meant to be, right…???

Oh man. I used to be obsessed with NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys…and briefly O-town when they had their tv show. Lance was my favorite, and I saw them in concert too, when I was in 7th grade. Ahh, memories.
