I don't know why I love songs like this. Maybe it's just because I just simply love the more verdant, beautiful parts of nature which is pretty much the level in which this song is played on.

I just dropped an F bomb while two coworkers were walking by, and one of them said, "Did you just hear that? [Bonsai] just cursed! I wanna hear that again!"

My cubicle neighbor said, "Yeah, he curses. It's nothing new." And the previous coworker said, "I thought he was perfect!"

That must mean there are actually two Bonsais. Clearly. All evidence points to this Bonsai being from an alternate dimension.

I like the name Silas (though I've never met anyone with it) and Thomas (I have met a Thomas or two, and I distinctly remember a Thomas from my younger days who was super hot... but also a douche).

Most Justins I've known have been super cute and not exceptionally douchey.

Also Adric, I've had full-on schoolgirl crushes on, like, at least two Jareds, if I'm not forgetting more. The Jareds I've known have been absolutely adorable.

For some reason, almost everyone I've met, fictional or otherwise, with my name, Michael, has been not very nice.

I'm also annoyed by how common "Michael" is around here. Several classes throughout my life have had multiple Michaels in it, and whenever someone calls them I always knee-jerk react as if they're calling me.evil grin

I have a bit of a bad association with the name "Lisa." A lot of the ones I met sadly turned out to be jerks. Lisa the Jewel manager, Lisa the statistics professor, Lisa Simpson...

Well, okay, there was the nice one I knew in high school. :)

I like to keep my audience riveted.

I had an awful roommate named Kevin and then I spent that summer working with a really nice Kevin and I silently thought several times "thank you for redeeming the name of Kevin".

For some reason, I know a lot of women named Alexis.

It probably doesn't help that it's my sister's name. >.<

Does anyone else ever have tabs open that they never want to close? Sometimes there's a tab that I'll just keep open even though I'm not really using it, even though I know I can easily get back to it anyway. Probably seems silly, I know. Sometimes I end up with 20 or more tabs open at the same time. :P

Yep. Sometimes I'll even close a tab, then open a new one and go right back to the page I had just closed.

Yes. Chrome makes a feature out of fixed tabs, but you can still close them, for some ungodly reason. I dunno if they'd stick around if I didn't have "always open at the last place you were" on.

I don't think I've ever met a large number of people with the same name and an overarching characteristic from my point of view. Perhaps William. Including multilingual and spelling variants, such as "Guilherme" and "Wilhelm".

I've met many Matthews (including multilingual and spelling variants), because it must have been a popular name 15-20 years ago, to the point I (jokingly) concluded that if I didn't know someone's name at my high school, I should just call them Matthew and I'd likely be correct. I've also met quite a few Raphaels, including my brother. Recently, I've met many 0-8 years old girls named Valentina (or "Something Valentina).

One name I like despite never meeting someone irl with that name is Wolfgang. I want to give my son that name. Actually maybe it's an unissex name. That literally never occurred to me until now. For many years, instead I would have named them my own name, or the female variant of it, because I didn't like any other name enough. But people tell me a child named Wolfgang would be made fun of (whether that person speaks English or not :S).
