“When you have a bad day, a really bad one, try and treat the world better than it treated you”
Patrick Stump 6.4.2013 – Twitter
Original Tweet (it’s a tweet but The link doesn’t work anymore): https://twitter.com/PatrickStump/status/341990786042302464
The reason why I like it: Patrick Stump is one of the many people who I look up to. He’s a very hardworking and talented person (how I think of him. May be opinionated), with a very strong faith in humanity (which may come to a fault). He chose to stay positive even when things that are going on around him are generally in the negative. As well as having an optimistic mindset, he also tries to influence people to also try and be more positive and “keep your head up” (part of another tweet) even when they’re struggling in life to try and make a good moment from a bad one. Being in the music industry for more than 16 years, Mr. Stump had many hurdles to overcome when it came to his career in music, and not only overcame them but extended his wisdom and persevere through his conflicts and insecurities for the better. I value this quote because it intertwines with my daily life and who I am as a person, it fuels me to strive and be my best self, whether it’ll be compared to me last year or even yesterday.
Favorite YouTube Clip:
(There are swears in the song.)
Reason Why I Like It:
I like this video because it’s a living embodiment of Fall Out Boy’s meme culture (without the Brendon Urie cameo). It’s something to take the fans away from something serious like The Young Blood Chronicles because; “I don’t think we’re a serious band, or we just don’t take ourselves seriously.” – Patrick Stump. So I guess they ended up making the video because since a majority of what they did, the fans made memes of, they just decided to go with that and have fun doing it. I really liked seeing such funny videos because it balances everything out because, again, YBC which managed to make most fans feel very strong emotions towards it. In general, it’s a funny video and the band members are being wholesome and happy.
Favorite Picture:
Elton John. The god of music, our lord and saviour of Rock & Roll (according to The Young Blood Chronicles – Fall Out Boy)
-Screenshot from Save Rock & Roll (Music Video)
Reason Why I Like It: I like this photo because although most people won’t even understand what’s going on, I have a basic understanding of what’s going on. The video, rather the videos that went with each of Fall Out Boy’s tracks from Save Rock & Roll, strike me with intense feelings and it provides me with some sort of emotional stability (due to how sensitive I can be) to pretty much help me in bad times. Listening Save Rock & Roll and watching The Youngblood Chronicles was the first album by them I chose to listen to, because at that time I didn’t listen to many of their songs, so that feeling of me choosing to listen to this album makes me feel somewhat proud that I found another band/songs I like. I like the band members. I cried when they died in the video(s). The references to Patrick Stump getting his hand chopped off (haha. Patrick’s arm-stump) in other videos hurts a little but it’s funny anyway. All the history that led up to the album being made was awesome, (for specific reasons), and if you mention The Young Blood Chronicles it to me, I might get emotional. (If you decide to watch The Young Blood Chronicles, I’m giving you a gore warning. Not very school friendly, oops.)
Favorite Website:
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/
Reason For It: Besides to listen to music and watch the music videos of my favorite bands, I get to chill and watch videos that spark joy and sometimes find new music. I honestly don’t use YouTube that often, so I can list some things/channels (Depending on the video, look at your own risk) I watch such as; Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, Twenty One Pilots, Panic! At The Disco, IDKHOW, Outside Xbox, Polygon, and many others. I rarely use it for educational purposes (which is my loss), but I learned a lot of non-essentials from watching band interviews at 3:00am, which made me happy but sleep deprived (I don’t do it during school so I should be okay). Overall, I only use YouTube for fangirling about bands or watch gaming related videos, which isn’t the worst thing to tell people, but I’d probably make quite cringe and not want to talk to me (sorry about that).

My guess is that some people may have the same ads if they also happened to have gotten new laptop/computer or if they manage to clear all their search data so that their browser can’t optimize their ads. Since I haven’t used my browser that much, my ads happen to be less relevant to me (I also made it so it has a harder time finding relevant ads by changing my settings when I set up my laptop).
