I like to go by the Mary Sue spelling of my name, which is Joolee!  Double letters and unconventional vowels RAWK!!! :D

That's more rabid fangirl than Mary Sue, I think...

Mary Sue's don't tend to scream their names....

People think it would be fun to be a bird because you could fly. But they forget the negative side, which is the preening.

LMFAO!!!!  Maybe Justin could be a singing camel in the music video?  With sexy humps?  And Fergie could ride him through the desert in a bikini. :D   Or it could be a Hunchback of Notre Dame rip-off.

Or like Free Willy with a humpback whale... *pictures Justin punching his fist in the air as the whale jumps over him to freedom*

Yes, but who writes Mary Sue stories?  Rabid fan girls.  And who are Mary Sues based on?  Rabid fan girls.  So really, they're the same thing.

Ahh, and THAT is the million dollar question.  One would THINK that on a Bsb board, there would be Bsb FANS who would like Bsb SONGS.

But that logic does not seem to apply over at LD.  God forbid you make that argument; you will get SHOT DOWN.

Yet another reason for me to assume ninety percent of them are rabid hyenas...

They're pretty poor as far as a BSB fandom collective goes...

No way! Fans should talk POSITIVELY about the guys on a message board based about THEM? Where's the fun in that? It's better to completely bash them....

Yet these are the SAME girls who the next time BSB comes into town will practically beat you over the head to get closer to these guys that they "love" so much than you.

Uh, if we have ferrets and you-know-whats in 00Carter, we TOTALLY need whales.  I'm sure Dr. Rough could come up with a plan to take over the world that involves whales... they are the biggest mammals...
