Remember When This Was A Thing?

Dear Rob,

We’ve come a long way together… I mean it’s been almost three years since the first Twilight came out, almost three years since you waltzed into our lives and started squatting in our hearts likes a hobo on the corner, and almost three years since we we felt so compelled to start our own blog and write about (or to) you like, every day. Yea, it’s been a trip and our love has matured and like any good love/friendship/psychosis we some times look back over the years and remember all the memories and feelings and when stuff was like a big deal when it was a THING. So let’s remember when this was a thing…

This was like a happy kismet of Rob events… the beard, the post New Moon hair, the (gucci?) sun glasses, the tried and true OLD plaid shirt, the general look of mheh-ness. THIS was a thing!

Oh. em. gee. This was a BIG thing… especially for me and Kristin (one of our former mods and pals) let’s just say it involved many in depth stories about basements, and boom boxes and wedding dresses and mostly Rob’s music. Priceless! It was such a thing!

Rob in Vancouver was such a thing. Mostly due to the fact he ran loose in the wild, whether it was going out to bars, playing drunk air guitar on street corners or wondering aimlessly in front of churches. Because clearly, that was a shout out to us.

Remember when pictures like this would surface of Rob looking like he was hassled by the paparazzi and tons of people got pissed off and declared they wouldn’t look at paparazzi pics (HAHA!) and vowed to “RESPECT ROB” *jazz hands*? That was like a huge thing. Come to think of it this really hasn’t happened in a while, has it? Have the paparazzi just given up, does Rob care less, or did the fans stop “RESPECTing ROB?”

Oh the good ol days of December 2008 when Rob shaved his head and went with Nikki Reed to buy boxes and the WORLD freaked out. Like for reals thats all anyone posted about for like 2 months.

Oh the Sex Drive Premiere. What HASN’T been said about the Sex Drive Premiere. I’ve seen women talk about these pictures like a Picasso or Shakespeare or God. On the realz though. This was a HUGE thing. Probably still is. I think he looks semi crazy but hey, we all have our own THINGS.

HAHAHA Remember when THIS was a thing? Lunch at the Pali House with Kristen and let’s not forget Marcus and some random I don’t even remember who that is. This was such a thing people flipped. Sure, some lame paparazzo is leaning over a wall or on a balcony or god knows what to get this (boring) shot but MAN was it a thing.

GQ aka the day we almost killed Twitter. I’d really like to see some backend numbrs from twitter/google/fan sites and see the explosion this caused. Not that I don’t blame anyone AT ALL. This was such a GOOD thing!

It’s so funny to look back on all the “things” that caused such a hub bub in the fandom and how now most are laughable but a lot still make us twitterpated. Oh good times. I can’t wait for the next THING!

This was totally a thing…

Rob, seriously?

Dear Rob,

Are you gonna make me beg again? We haven’t seen you anywhere, no sightings, no videos, no awkward drive thru scenarios, no underwear buying, no nothing! All we have are some rumors about you riding a bike around Baton Rouge and learning to sail a boat…..zzzzzzzz… OH Sorry dear, I fell asleep there for a second I was so bored.

I know I’ve begged for you to come around before and I’ve begged for you to go away but I don’t care! You need to show your face. UC and I need something to talk about besides what our college friends are up to on Facebook or how I need to visit her on the east coast (I KNOW!). So PLEASE Rob, come out, come out wherever you are!!!

Since we’re at a complete lose for anything to yak about how about we just remember all my favorite things about you?

You, as Daniel Gale in the Bad Mother’s Handbook. Of course the rainbow sweater is classic but this scene is about as amazing as your O face here.

this.

That nasty shower in Remember Me. Can I join you?

Whenever I’m missing “Old Rob” or want to laugh I head straight for the “Best of Robert Pattinson” videos on Youtube. That and a stiff drink and then everythings good.

you and Tom hanging out with that hot piece, Andrew Garfield last year. Sure, you’re all pretty haggard looking here but it’s the potential of what could be. You should all hang out more often. Like EVERY DAY. Please.

OH HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYyyyyyyyyyyy (thud)

This thing that someone made of all your faces from the Taft video thingy.

My favorite favorite favoritest part of Remember Me

aaaannnnddd from the ALWAYS awesome PetitBiel one of her rad videos…

This makes me smile.

So that’s where we’re at Rob. I’m posting old stuff that I like about you. Please go to KFC or a Crawfish Boil or get drunk in NOLA and declare an early Mardi Gras as you flash your man nips while Kellan throws some beads at you, ya know, whatever just do something!

Your faithful blogger,
Themoonisdown

What is your favorite Rob? Have a picture or video we should see? Post them in the comments and let’s commiserate together until Rob comes back.

Rob Porn Friday

Dear Rob,

It’s Friday so I’m thinking about RobPorn, naturally. Do you remember when we started the RobPorn phenomenon? It was to be like the book “Porn for Women” with shirtless dudes ironing & stuff. It was you doing “hot” stuff around the house for us. It was soooooo innocent. And it’s been taken to a WHOLE other level. Some of it is funny, of course, and we’ve joined in on the pg-13 non-innocence time and again, but then there is the porn that is um.. wayyyy too far. You know what I mean: You going down on a girl. You showing pubic hair. Zooming in on actual pictures of your nether regions. (Perfect example: NSFW) We get it. You have a d*ck. You have sex. You possible know where to find the little man in the boat. I don’t actually need to see manips of it.

So I thought I’d google “RobPorn” to see what kind of gems there are out there. Turns out we’ve posted a ton! So today I’m re-posting some of my favorites, as well as a few non-LTR creations. Oh, and one new one for good measure:

More after the jump! Continue…

Wait… why am i attracted to Rob again?

I can be a bad boy...

Dear Rob,

Let’s get physical serious. Last week I was chatting with lula34 about our male celebrity boyfriends. She showed me a recent video clip of her True Blood boyfriend Alex Skarsgard & then we passed out from love over the latest Chuck Bass/Gossip Girl promo with Too_Far_Gone.

Then we said “Remember at the end of Vampire Diaries when we watch the last romantic scene of the season involving Damon the vampire over and over and over” and we reminisced by watching “The kiss” you tube clip over and over and over again. And got excited for the return of THAT show. Yeah, it was a good day. NSFW day.

But Then it hit me. I love strong sexual characters. Chuck Bass & Damon Salvator? Hellooooo. And lula34 loves Alex the vampire (who is pretty sexy even though I’m not a True Blood watcher) and prays every night for dream sex with British hunk Jason Statham. Helloooooo.

So….why do we like you again? You’re not the dick that Chuck Bass is; you’re not an aggressive, cocky guy like Damon Salvator. You’re not overly sexual or full of yourself or anything like those other celebrities or characters we love so much. I posed the question to lula34:

UC: Wait… why am I attracted to Rob again? When normally I like much more sexual male characters?
Lula34: If I were to write fan fiction, it’d be about me, Jason [Statham], Alex [Skarsgard] & Ed [Westwick from Gossip Girl]. And a bottle of Thousand Island dressing.
UC: Hahaha dear lord- I cannnottttt wait for GG. I need Ed in my life
Lula34: Yes. I also need Damon. And all the angst that will ensue on VD. But mostly Chuck Bass. He is a legend.
UC: I’d take both… If I had to!!! Why have I liked Rob all this time when I’m obviously attracted to much stronger sexual characters??? Edward!? Is that the ONLY reason!?
Lula34: That’s SUCH a tremendous question. This must be discussed, because a friend asked me this the other day–why I love the “bad boys” but still have a “thing” for Rob. I don’t know why- Ron is the utter opposite of chuck bass! Chuck makes me shiver. Yeah, I said it.
UC: Me too- let’s become actresses so we can become lovers to all these different men

What's good about THIS?

Now before you go boohooing into your pillow because you just found out we spend all this time talking about men other than you, don’t worry- we’re not saying “Let’s give up on Rob because he’s not filled with STDs like Chuck Bass” NO no no… we’re saying, how can we like BOTH Bad boy, sexual aggressors like Chuck Bass and also like YOU- shy, humble terribly sexy but refuses to admit the fact or play up the sexualness, Rob?

Is it because you played Edward? And sure, Edward is sexxxxxyyyyy- but…. he’s not like those other sexually aggressive guys we mentioned… so it’s probably not just that.

Is it because we’ve been brain-washed by GQ and Details & all the other sexy magazines where you’ve done photoshoots and we’ve lost DAYS of productive work as a result?

Or….. is it because we all THINK that under that humble, shy demeanor there is a sexual maniac waiting to escape!? That if we got you in a room and chained you to a wall you willingly were into us, the ‘front’ you put on for the media & the public would disappear and you’d bring out the sexy bad boy whose only mission in life is to get.it.on with ME!?

I think that might be it. Because, if I’m honest (and I’m always honest), if you are humble, shy and sensitive in every area of your life, including your private life, what in my fantasies sounds like this:

throwing me up against the wall, ripping off my clothes, touching places I didn’t know liked to be touched

might actually be more like this

lightly pushes me to the wall
Rob: Oh no! Did I hurt you? Did I push you too hard?
UC: No, no it’s fine, just kiss me
cute little nibbles & kisses down my cheek & neck
Rob: May I take off your shirt?”
UC: Uh, sure…
fumbling. confusion.
UC: You okay?
Rob: Can we turn on the lights a second? I want to see how this bra claps works- I haven’t felt anything like this before
later
UC: You’re so hottttt

I hate that I hurt you.....

Rob: blushing Really? You mean it? I thought I looked too much like my dad today…..
a long time later
Rob: Is this okay? Am I hurting you? Does this feel good
UC: yes.. shhhh
Rob: tell me if it starts to feel weird. Does this feel right? I think maybe this is better? How about here? Here?
UC: STOP IT IT’S FINE
Rob: bursts into tears I’m sorry. I wanted this to be perfect…….

And that’s not cool…….

So yes, it’s odd that I’m attracted to both you and Chuck Bass, Damon Salvator & other over-sexualized characters when you seem so different. But I have to think deep down, behind that humble, sensitive, charming British demeanor is a bad boy…. yearning to do real bad things to me….

Yours willingly,
UnintendedChoice

Thanks to Robsessed for killing me with those new outtakes

What do YOU think? Are you “into” celebs or characters that are quite “opposite” of who Rob appears to be? Why do you think you are? Is Rob’s humble demeanor just a public front- underneath he knows you want him and he’s happily going to oblige!?

Open Weekend Post: Hosted By Riding Boots Rob

You ain't got nothing on me Ginuwine

Dear Rob,

You’re back on the set of Water for Elephants and you’ve been seen all over the LA area wearing tuxes and dirty clothes and my newest favorite: riding boots and (kinda, not really) jodpurs. Maybe it’s the jodpurs and thinking of my grandma telling stories about hers and seeing picture or maybe it’s those riding boots but I love it. All I can think about is the song “Pony” by Ginuwine. “My pony, let’s do it, ride it my Rosie!”

My saddle's waiting, come and jump on it!

Here’s to hoping instead of period appropriate music they use mid 90s R&B songs by men with misspelled stage name in Water for Elephants!

Let’s do it!
Themoonisdown

PS Happy 4th of July to the folks who live in the States! Enjoy!!!!!

Does anyone else love mid 90s R&B like me? Doesn’t it work perfectly with Rob? Are you more excited about Water for Elephants that Bel Ami? Cause I am!
