It was a quiet Saturday afternoon until I saw a video and had a mini-seizure. After this, I shouldn’t be held responsible for my acts. Honestly. My mind can’t barely take it. My heart? Pfft! It already went flying out the window.
Once again, the genius people behind the PR for Starz (who, in my humble opinion deserve a Nobel Prize) have made my Facebook and Twitter feeds be mono-thematic yet again. I swear that 11 out of 10 posts are about this little jewel.
Today is St. Andrew’s Day (guess you found that out today, huh?). He is Scotland’s Patron Saint. And I could have kept on blissfully living for the rest of my ignorant days without ever knowing this little fact, if it wasn’t for some brilliant mind in the Starz PR team who thought of doing a sort of online course for Gaelic Lessons. “Speak Outlander”, they named it. I actually had to watch it 2 times to even begin to understand what they were trying to teach me.
WARNING: the following video might just murder you. Just saying. Proceed with caution.
Should I give you a minute to start breathing again? No? Ok…
Sam knows exactly what he’s doing to us, the little evil thing. The messy, just got out of bed red-hair. The little smirk and the staring straight into the camera. The V-neck on that shirt, that I’m sure he wore just so he could innocently show us Jamie’s triangular scar. If you pay attention and listen closely, you might be able to hear us all Outlander fangirls dying a slow death by spontaneously combusting and our ovaries commiting suicide.
Can someone please GIF the hell out of this video like, now? I screencaped every one of the 17 seconds Sam’s on screen (I counted them), but I so need to learn how to make GIFs…
OMG! I have a problem! I can’t stop watching this video! I need help! HELP!!!
No, wait. Don’t help. Don’t make me stop watching it! It just made my day!!!
So, did you have a seizure right now? Do you think the PR people for this show are actual geniuses who deserve a Nobel Prize? Will you survive the release of the first official promo? Do you love Sam as Jamie more and more every day that goes by? Did you pronounce “sassenach” correctly while reading the books? (I did! Yay! Nailed it!) Am I asking too many questions? Am I way to excited for a 50 seconds video?
I just laughed so hard reading this & I’m not sure if I’m laughing cause it is so relatable and true or if its like a scared laugh and I’m terrified for myself, you and the rest of us obsessed Outlander fans…cause we are in big trouble! BIG!
I agree with you that we should be afraid. The premiere of this show will probably kill us.
But don’t despair! We are all in this together!
