a scanner darkly

A book written by Philip K. Dick, that was later turned into an animated movie of the same name. Follows the story of a undercover drug detective who ends up getting hooked on the drugs he's fighting. His sacrifice, however, uncovers the terrible truth about an agency that provides drug addicts safe-houses to get off the drug. Fantastic book and great movie. The book is better though. The story was inspired by the 1970s drug culture that Dick participated in. It's dedicated to dozens of his friends that died or were crippled by drug use.

A scanner darkly is a freaky story, makes drugs sound very unappealing.

Stanned

Past tense of being an overzealous or obsessive fan of a particular celebrity/artist/person/character, etc.

STalker + fAN = STAN

Eminem's song "Stan" embodied all the aspects of what it means to be a huge fanatic of a music artist, and the word has since been used to encompass all obsessive fan behavior.

who was the first group you ever stanned? do you still stan them or have you moved on?

Syanne

A brunette with junk in her trunk. She is kind and loyal to certain people and protective over her best friends.She stands out in a crowd and has that "go with the flow" attitude. BUT, obnoxious and annoying people can cause her to be mean and cruel and is very scary and dangerous when ticked off. Syanne usually thinks before she takes action and prevents her friends from getting into trouble. When excited she does funny dances to show her emotions.

"your name should be syanne because you're amazing"

"syanne is so cool"
