the best trope in media is: “characters turn on the lights, see the monster, and immediately turn the lights back off”

Okay, do you think Spencer was more mad at Jack for killing him or for not remembering that he killed him?

Because it would be very fucking hypocritical for him to get pissed at Jack for committing Murder when Spencer is literally. Like That.

And also because the whole thing of stalking Jack, threatening him over the phone, forcing him to dig his own grave, torturing him and shoting his friend in front of him felt like he was getting a little too homoerotic with his revenge.

Like he was so excited to have an Arch Nemesis he could go back-and-forth with, someone he could kill and someone who could kill him back

Only for Jack to not remember killing him.

Like that must've been such a disappointment to Spencer, who did all of those aforementioned things for completely normal and not at all homosexual reasons.

hyena positivity that focuses on spotted hyenas only is so fake. if you don’t love brown and striped hyenas then get out. if you don’t love aardwolves I can’t even look at you oh my god

My sleep deprived mind came up with this. I haven’t even had any oarfish related dreams recently.

A hiker, clearly shaken, enters a remote English village pub, his clothes all torn and he's full of scratches. 

"You won't believe this," he says to the bartender. "I was attacked by a leopard!"

"Really?"

"Yes! A leopard! In England!" The hiker sits down and orders the strongest liquor they've got. "I tried to run, but it was if course much faster than me."

The hiker gets his glass, empties it, and asks for another. "It sent me to the ground with a mighty push from its paws, but weirdly enough it then just gave me a really sad look and left."

"Ah, you met Father Andrews," the bartender says, matter-of-factly.

"What do you mean?" asks the tourist, confused.

"Father Andrews was our priest. A truly kind-hearted man, loved by all. His only goal in life was to serve his congregation as well as he could. So when he one day found a lamp with a genie, his very first wish was to be a loving shepherd to the community."

"That's nice "

"Absolutely, if only he hadn't been so prone to spoonerisms."

My face is having uncontrollable spasms. Great. It hurts really, really, really bad.

I think part of why I have trouble explaining pain to the doctor is when they ask about the pain scale I always think “Well, if someone threw me down a flight of stairs right now or punched me a few times, it would definitely hurt a lot more” so I end up saying a low number. I was reading an article that said that “10” is the most commonly reported number and that is baffling to me. When I woke up from surgery with an 8" incision in my body and I could hardly even speak, I was in the most horrific pain of my life but I said “6” because I thought “Well, if you hit me in the stomach, it would be worse.”

i change my mind

do i ship these characters or do i want them to form a sketch comedy duo
