  2. FROGGO liked a post in a topic by Summersault in Lizzy in old Lake Placid area newspapers   
    This so adds to the mystique of her claimed teen drinking. I wonder if her talk of "losing her reputation" has something to do with her early days as a preppy, Catholic sweetheart. It must have been the talk of the town if she really got into enough trouble to get sent off to boarding school.
     
    "Have you heard? Rob and Pat's Lizzy was drinking light beer behind the school."
    "Oh my, she used to be such a darling with the litter picking and all!"

    k i didn't think it would be necessary to bold the relevant portions of the information i quoted but i'll do it now 
     
    "WASP is an informal term, sometimes derogatory or disparaging, for a closed group of high-status Americans; a group believed to control disproportionate social and financial power."
     
    my usage of the term had nothing to do with her denomination

    I found a bunch of old Lake Placid News (LPN), Adirondack Daily Express (ADE), Plattsburgh Press-Rebulican (PPR) articles archived as black and white PDF scans that mention Lizzy, some with photos of her:
     
     
     
    Here's a rundown of the rest of the references:
     
    Involvement in Sports
    Skiing. "Lately, the students of St. Agnes School have accomplished a lot out of school. Many SAS students particpated recently in some exciting ski races: NYSEF World Cup race for JV (ages 7-10). Placings are as follows... Elizabeth Grant 20th". January 25, 1995 LPN Sports page box score showing her run time and placing ("8. Elizabeth Grant   44.33") in the Ed Damp Junior V World Cup. March 12, 1996 PPR
    "The New York Ski Educational Foundation (NYSEF) held its annual family race and picnic for participants in the.series last Saturday, at which time the final standings were released... Elizabeth Grant (259)... Completed the top 10." March 23, 1996 ADE
    Skating. "The following scholarships have been awarded by the Skating Club of Lake Placid to the skaters named below... $50 scholarships for ice or lessons... Elizabeth Grant." March 27, 1997 ADE Softball. She played center fielder for her middle school team. "Elizabeth grant [sic] OF-C". April 10, 1998 LPN Involvement in Other Extra-curricular Activities
    Choir. "The Lake Placid High School (LPHS) concert started off with the chorus singing 'Psallite'. They song many traditional Christmas Carols [sic]. The chorus personnel are... Elizabeth Grant". March 7, 2000 LPN "After the Women's Ensemble it was the high school chorus' time to shine... Medley from 'Les Miserables' had many soloists, such as... Elizabeth Grant". June 23, 2000 LPN
    What song do you think she sang?
    Performed in a variety show (as well as Chuck and Charlie). June 23, 2000 LPN Secretary of the high school Key Club. "On Tuesday May 9, the Key Club members welcomed new leadership... Congratulations also go to the new secretary. Elizabeth Grant". June 23, 2000 LPN Staff of the Blue Times Bomber, the school newspaper which appears to have been an insert in the Lake Placid News. January 28, 2000  March 17, 2000 LPN  June 23, 2000 LPN Confirmation. "On Sunday afternoon. May 21, at 4:30 p.m.. Bishop Gerald Barbarito, bishop of Ogdensburg, came to Lake Placid and confirmed more than 50 people from area Roman Catholic churches, including St Agnes... It was a beautiful and solemn ceremony, with the church's altars and pillars decked in red, the bishop in his red chasuble (robe), wearing his miter on his head and holding his staff in hand. On the altar, dozens of red roses arranged in large vases added to the festive atmosphere. The 17 Lake Placid young people, all dressed in white robes, who received the gifts of the Holy Spirit in the sacrament of confirmation included... Elizabeth Grant". May 26, 2000 LPN Honor Roll
     
    There are also many articles that list her on the honor roll:
    Grade 7, High Honors. January 9, 1998 LPN  February 13, 1998 LPN  March 27, 1998 LPN  March 27, 1998 ADE  March 30, 1998 PPR  May 29, 1998 ADE  June 9, 1998 ADE  June 19, 1998 LPN  July 31, 1998 PPR Grade 8, Honors. March 5, 1999 LPN  March 8, 1999 ADE  March 12, 1999 LPN  May 7, 1999 LPN Grade 8, High Honors. June 18, 1999 LPN  July 20, 1999  July 23, 1999 LPN Grade 9, Honors. December 24, 1999 LPN  December 31, 1999 LPN  January 28, 2000 LPN This establishes pretty well that she started 9th grade in the fall of 1999. Unless you skip a grade, kids are 14 or 15 when they begin 9th grade (or at least turn 14 shortly after it begins). If Lizzy was really born in 1986 as she claims, she would have just turned 13 the summer before.   
     
    Family Members
     
    There's also a lot of articles mentioning other members of her family. I didn't spend a ton of time looking at those, but they appear to be mostly about her parents' efforts to organize opposition to a development project (Lake Placid does really remind me of Twin Peaks sometimes) for classic NIMBY reasons, her dad's real estate listings, and Chuck and Charlie's sports exploits (including a huge fish she caught).
     
    However, this article describes in greater detail her dad's furniture company mentioned in that Domain Name Journal profile on him and this article gives more background on her family's ownership of "God Bless America" singer Kate Smith's home-- which Lizzy mentioned in this article and was the inspiration for the original title of AKA-- and their attempts to sell it at a large profit rather than an affordable price for the Kate Smith/God Bless America Foundation who wanted to turn it into a museum.
     
    Note: Please let me know if any of my links appear wrong. That's a lot of links to copy and paste!

    @ called it, this album is surprisingly REALLY good. Wouldn't surprise me if it's better than Katy's, Britney's, and Gaga's. Honestly.

    All that's real to me is Halloween and Jesus
     
    ANNOUNCING THE 2ND ANNUAL LANAWEEN COSTUME CONTEST
     
    Update: To get more participation I've decided to change the rules. ANY COSTUME IS ALLOWED. It no longer has to be Lana-related.
     
    For the second year in a row, we will be holding a contest for the best Lana- or LanaBoards-related Halloween costume. However, unlike last year, you can't simply submit a description of your costume idea. This year you must also submit a photo of yourself in costume. Like last year you may submit multiple entries, as many as you wish, but only one costume is allowed per post. Your costume must be related to Lana or this forum in some way. Also, unlike last year, you may submit the same costume idea as someone else since you must submit a photo and will be judged on the execution of your costume idea, not the idea itself. In order to give people time to post photos from actual Halloween parties, entries must be submitted by 11:59 PM EST on November 3. On November 4, a poll will be created consisting of the most-liked entries so everyone can vote for their most favorite. The winner will be announced at a later specified date at 10:30PM EST on November 6 and receives bragging rights and the respect of their peers (maybe).
     
    You can catch up on last year's competition here and see @@SitarHero's winning PSYtar "Lolita from the hood" entry here.

  16. FROGGO liked a post in a topic by Baby V Alex in Britney Spears   
    NEWS ABOUT THE SINGLE:

     

    The song migh be called "WORK BITCH" instead of "WERK BITCH"
    It samples RuPaul's Supermodel, and according to some rumors, Ru's voice actually comands Britney to: "Work, turn to the left, work turn to the right".
    It's co-written by Britney and rumos said that it talks about how everyone keep saying that "the old Britney is dead", "she is over", "she's a puppet"
    Sebastien Stella is the choreographer of the video (P!nk/Cirque Du Solei)
    Anthony Mandler is the director
    It's the first single she co-wrote since Me Against the Music, however this is if we don¿t count that Britney came up with the "It's Britney, bitch" line in GM
     

    This is the full outfit, this if Britney choose to use the bottom part

  20. FROGGO liked a post in a topic by elllipsis in Best and worst music videos (any genre, any era)   
    I anxiously waited for @ to create this topic after it was mentioned in the new music video releases one, but she never did & I'm really bored right now, sooo.
     
    Here are some of my all time favourites (cba with least faves rn, will do them some other time).
     
    NIN - Closer
    Simultaneously very disturbing / creepy and really sexy (this era Trent Reznor could SO get it tbh). NSFW.
     
     
     
    The Smashing Pumpkins - Stand Inside Your Love
    Maybe a bit over the top but I love the whole ~b&w tragic love story thing.
     
     
     
    The Prodigy - Smack My Bitch Up
    Very NSFW. Jonas Åkerlund's masterpiece tbh.
     
     
     
    Blur - Coffee and TV
    The cutest and also the saddest video clip EVAH. RIP little cartoon milk.
     
     
     
    Pulp - This Is Hardcore
    This one's really great in an almost kitschy way, love it! Also, awesome film noir pastiche.
     
     
     
    Sigur Rós - Viðrar vel til loftárása
    Simply one of the most beautiful and meaningful videos I've ever seen.
     
     
     
    Arctic Monkeys - Suck It And See
    Just visually stunning and very Lana Del Rey-ish imo, with all the Americana references and the crazy / toxic / intense relationship thing. NSFW-ish.
     
     
     
    The Strokes - Someday
    Because how could I not mention them tbh. Probably not even their best, but it's the most special one for me because ~dat nostalgia.
