Katy Perry is hotter, albeit less talented.

I think that's why we're supposed to be hating on Ben Gibbard.

And I am!

God dammit.

Ah well congrats Ben. I wish you hadn't been rewarded for mainstreaming your music, but whatever.fark!

i always liked her sister better...

 
KhamanV 2008-12-29 09:13:28 PM  
Zooey's eyeballs were the scariest thing going in 'The Happening.' Some schmo wants to set himself to wake up to that all the farking time? Okay.

Come a grey, grey dawn in their future together, and Ben rolls over to see GIANT EYEBALLS STARING INTO HIS SOUL. Ben will gibber, and from his howling, torn mouth will come the names of dead stars, and below the sea, the forgotten ones will rise. Ia! Ia!

That girl is crazy hot and hooks up with nerds.

Things are looking up for yours truly.

than making you my bride and slowly growing old together

 
Stay Cool Babylon 2008-12-29 10:20:27 PM  
Huge fan of Death Cab and Postal Service..but no idea who the girl is. Judging by the fact that people are upset, I suppose that's a good thing.

 
Trunks378 2008-12-29 10:27:03 PM  
She's an actress and was in Almost Famous, Elf, and The Assassination of Jesse James by...the title is too long to finish and she's the lead singer of She & Him

She's also the object of many men's lustful desires. Let's not forget that little bit of information.

Loved her in All The Real Girls

Well done

In my youth that was my favorite line of all time. It occurs to me now that I'm using 'of all time' incorrectly, but the point pretty much remains

The day after Hurricane Katrina hit and everything I had known was in a vortex of Suck and confusion...I still managed to get my mitts on Plans, which was released as the storm was making landfall.

So yeah, I'm a fan! :)

Narrow Stairs sort of gnawed at me at first, but it's becoming a favorite. 'Grapevine Fires' has to be one of the most infectious, haunting songs I've heard in a while.

/Ok...ok....I logged into the unprotected router where I was and forwarded a port so I could download Plans. The motivation was the same, though. I had to have that farking album come hell or, erm, high water.

 
I Invented Crack 2008-12-30 02:29:40 AM  
I'm a fan of them both and I didn't even know they were dating. Lots of lonely songs by the both. Upset to see Zooey taken off the market, but best of luck to them.

What? No "PENIS GOES WHERE?????" photoshop on that pic?

I guess that meme is wearing thin....

I've been hating on Kevin Kline for decades, so this isn't new.

Now off my lawn!

/when is Zooey going to be on "Bones"?

 
shirtsbyeric 2008-12-30 08:29:50 AM  
So the next DCFC album is gonna suck then, right?

 
havesometea 2008-12-30 08:43:36 AM  
I don't feel any different.

 
dkny 2008-12-30 08:46:36 AM  
She's very cute in a quirky sort of way.. I still haven't decided if this is good or bad that she's off the market though. Not like I or anyone here had a chance, so I guess it doesn't matter and I'll go back to looking at pictures of her and watching her movies like everyone else here does.

Also, apparently she does music too.. who the hell knew?

 
mofomisfit 2008-12-30 09:23:30 AM  
Well I'm sure it'll be a movie script wedding AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

What I want to know is, since the song is about six years old what are you defining as your "youth"?

 
LegalizeThoughtCrime 2008-12-30 09:31:22 AM  
i had never heard of Death Cab For Cutie until last night, when i discovered they had gotten their name from a song by Bonzo Dog Band (a.k.a. Bonzo Dog DooDah Band) which appeared in the Beatles movie Magical Mystery Tour. thanks, youtube!

(Niel Innes from Bonzo Dog Band wrote the music for the the movie The Rutles, as well as Monty Python's Holy Grail.)

If you like Ben Gibbard's voice, you are a pussy.

She'd be great as Zach's replacement.

TwistedTenacity: If you like Ben Gibbard's voice, you are a pussy.

Your admonition of my tastes makes me question all my life's choices. I'm obviously of little value to humanity. Thank you for bringing me to the truth. I shall do away with myself now for the betterment of the world.

Sadly, I think that is the way it must be.

Unless, of course, she rips his heart in two and then we get an amazing album.

I kind of agree with this troll. His voice is pretty lame and horrible. I own 3 or 4 Deathcab and Postal Service albums, BTW. As a weekend warrior musician who can't sing quite as well as I'd like, I appreciate a guy that doesn't have a good voice, but writes great lyrics and vocal melodies. In fact, his unassuming vocal stylings draw more attention to the lyrics, melodies, and overall soundscape. It works.

I thought she was already married to a movie producer.

Oh well.
