grapes


grape terminology

angle: Better known as “the angle”, this is the common approach to a kissing scene in a movie. In “the angle”, the camera approaches from a diagonal, behind one of the character’s shoulders. It is good to irritate your friends during a romcom by pointing out “the angle” at every opportunity and making every onscreen kiss predictable.

Arieldepp: A girl who looks like Scarlett Johanssen from someplace in Europe, Belgium I think, who makes badly photoshopped Ariel/Johnny Depp pairings. It’s actually kind of original and cool, but badly made and with such bad grammar. My favorites are the Ariel and Captain Jack Sparrow series. It includes a love story between Ursula and Davy Jones. For a horror movie, watch “Imagine Me Without You”, a love story between Ariel and Tom Hanson, featuring the Christian worship song “Imagine Me Without You. It’ll scare the crap out of you. You’ll never look at Ms. Flower’s TV the same again. Edit: They got rid of the TV.

CatCF: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory – Pronounced, Cat-uh-fuh (as in what the fuh, and can be used in that context) part of the reason grapes went crazy in 7th grade. So would you if the Willy Wonka Welcome Song looped in your head for three months straight. Also, not as scary for grapes as Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

Drew Barrymore Syndrome: When the right side of your mouth can’t stop dominating when you talk or smile. Just watch her. You’ll see what I’m saying. And then you won’t be able to stop either. It will itch!!!!!!! “Drew Barrymore” can be replaced with “Renee Zellweger”, “Katie Holmes”, ”Edward Cullen in that one scene”, “Johnny Depp when he’s trying to contain his laughter”, ”that lady from grapes’s church camp”, and countless others.

Drew Barrymore hired a speech coach for “The Grey Gardens” to help her stop speaking from the right side of her mouth. After watching the trailer, Grapes deemed this ineffective.

Johnny Depp Glasses: Although this may refer to any of the many styles of eyewear Johnny Depp has worn, usually this refers to these:
jdglasses 
Otherwise known as “Risky Business” sunglasses, they have been seen on MIKA, Ryan Ross and Brendan Urie, Rachel Bilson and most recently on Edward (see Edward Cullen) in “Twilight”, in a clip that grapes rewatched several times because
1. She likes watching people get in/out of cars.
2. He had Johnny Depp sunglasses!
The other style of sunglasses referred to when using this phrase are more commonly known as aviators, although they must have blue lenses, as seen at the PotC 3 (see PotC) premier.
The ones grapes wants are but imposters. They’re purple and look somewhat like this:
sunglasses
Hint. Hint. Edit: Grapes has Johnny Depp sunglasses now. They are pink.

Migrant Worker Song: Otherwise known as “When I’m Gone” by Simple Plan. It’s just that I picture Asian workers with big hats singing when I hear it. There’s a whole Migrant Worker music video in my head for that song. Someday I hope to bring it to life. It would be better than the confusing video they created with bad haircuts. This also explains the migrant workers in my planner.

Little French Boy: Adrogynous, you are not sure whether he is a boy or a girl. Grapes is doomed to forever have Little French Boy hair. See: Will’s child.  Think Little Lord Fauntleroy, or

Nntesh: Although the spelling of his unique moniker is oft disputed, Nntesh’s position as the greatest pop/rap/rock star ever created cannot be questioned. He is known for his upside down trapezoid head, brightly colored hoodies, ability to speak quickly, and adrogynous features. Nntesh was last publicly seen when he went to elementary with Grapes, but only his number one fangirls know where he currently resides.

OUaTiM: Once Upon a Time In Mexico. A very violent movie not for the children, I myself stealthily watched this in the late nights when I was “swamped by Whitney homework”, an excuse, it seems, which has helped to build up our school’s reputation. Think about it guys. How much homework do we really get? Anyways, the best thing about this is Sheldon Jeffrey Sands and a not-so-stumpy Eva Mendes.

“to play fat”: The slapping of fatty body parts on a hard surface. Scandalous! Not quite. More like disturbing. To pretend the undersides of your thighs are percussion instruments. So far, it only works for grapes. Huzzah.

PotC: Pirates of the Caribbean – what used to be considered the AWEsomest movie in the universe. Did you get that reference? If you did, you’re the way grapes was, except that she didn’t think she was married to Johnny Depp. Today it’s a part of me I can never eraaaaaaaaseeeee (Mika reference!) but it’s still a great movie. Especially Curse of the Black Pearl. :)

Six Degrees: Sometimes the only reason grapes watches something. Soon six degrees takes over your mind and turns it into a dark blob of connecting lines.

Stealthy:                                                                                

Sushi: Anusha

TIoDP: TIH-duh-puh, or The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus. While Heath Ledger is pretty awesome he is not the reason Grapes will be watching this movie.

Will’s Child: Dominic Scott Kay. His only memorable role for grapes was as Will’s son in the extra scene of PotC 3. He is also the voice of Wilbur from “Charlotte’s Web” and that kid from “Snow Buddies”, which I watched only because of the Six Degrees to PotC.
