You know what I don't actually dislike young machetes that much. This is their funniest album to me because I oscillate between hating it and loving it so often

I understand what you mean, and i dont have full context, and you are completely entitled to not like the thibgs she likes, but it kinda sounds to me like she's trying to share her interests with you so you can be closer. I mean, i'd be pretty upset if i asked my sibling to watch a movie with me that i was really excited to watch and they not only shut me down but also didnt even like the thing i wanted to share with them. Now, if she also refuses to engage in your interests, then its titally fair to be upset with her about this. But i think it's worth indulging in her interests, maybe taking turns sharing stuff with eachother! I know it can be hard if you like horror stuff and it scares her too much, but idk it sounds to me from the limited view i have like shes giving a reasonable reaction to the little i know. Is she forcing you to engage with her interests? Or is she trying to share her interests with you? I literally dont know i am genuninly asking you to consider this
yeah..... lol, i realized this was the case about 5 minutes after we had our fight. short tempers run in the family unfortunately (thanks, dad <3) so neither of us were able to articulate that we just wanted the opportunity to share our interests with one another and ended up having a whole big fight over it . i apologized to her and then we watched shrek the third and now all's well . <3

NCT as High School Teachers
Y’ALL IT’S FINALLY HERE
So I saw a thibg on instagam that said nct as teachers so lets go
We’re going by age so I know I get all of them but I also don’t know all of them too well. I’m literally so upset I cant do xiaojun because I love him but I also don't know him well enough I’m sorry honey. also some of these I really pulled out of nowhere so they might be way the frick off
Taeil
I think he’s like one of those teachers who loves his job and wants his students to love his class but like he teaches selectively at the end of the day and they just want to go home
Teaches like language arts or some sort of literature
Is so happy to teach everyday
Johnny
Everyone's best friend
Knows every bit of gossip going on in school
Nobody knows what his job is
Meanders around campus all day
Knows your name somehow
Taeyong
Teaches something to help improve life skills like speech or something. Teaches Home Ec.
Loves his students and wants to be involved in their lives
Pretends like he’s not listening to all the student’s gossip so he hears it all
Gets bombarded in the teacher’s lounge on what’s happening (needs to be cajoled)
Surprised by all the scandalous things his students get themselves into
Yuta
We all knew this was coming
The hot substitute teacher
Works like once a semester
When he comes to work the whole school is rocked and he knows it
Walks around the classroom all day like sir why are you strutting
Sits with his feet up on the desk
Kun
Probably wants to be a really good and strict teacher
But the kids know they can walk all over him
Senior teacher
So when the seniors are informal with him so are the rest of the students
Doyoung
Scary
Extremely silent classroom you could hear a pin drop on the carpet
But like then he’s seen around the other teachers and he's so smiley
Either lectures and notes or busy work
Will not. Under any circumstances. Allow friends to sit next to each other.
Ten
“Do whatever you want, I don’t care”
Art teacher
So he can do whatever he wants, pass kids, and gets paid to use the school’s art supplies
Scolds kids who insult other kids’ artwork
Randomly subs for PE one day and makes the students learn dance
Jaehyun
Honestly idk probably an elective
His class is pretty average just like any other
But wow sir hello
Everyone is in love with him
Is besties with Taeyong and like wow what a pair Probably has a movie day like at least once a month
Winwin
Mysterious
Likes select students who will then learn that he likes stuff like ballet and singing
Students only learn about him through Yuta
People take his class cuz they know Yuta will visit him even when he doesn’t work
Well and ya know because its Sicheng
Is a pretty chill teacher
Jungwoo
FRESHMEN TEACHER
Girls literally coo at him instead of doing their work
Wonders why he has to fail students when he doesn’t teach anything
Speaks in tiny and loses control of his class sometimes
Shares a room with another teacher like idk Jaehyun.. Idk why but he does
(I have just been informed that he does in fact share a room with Jaeyun so there you have it)
Lucas
Teaches like P.E.
It’s something he can do and be loud about
Loves shouting orders but he never sounds angry like a normal coach lol
Actually scratch that he can sound angry sometimes
PRETENDS to be angry and yells then laughs like lol you should see your faces
ALWAYS plays with the students he never stays on the sidelines
Allows you to wear normals clothes not just the ugly gym uniform
Mark
Yes he teaches english
But half the class is just him laughing
Lots of the other teachers visit him
Like Yuta and Haechan
You can hear him from down the hall
I feel like he’s that teacher that has mistakes in his notes or tests or something, like small little spelling errors idk I can just see it
Firmly believes that you learn best by immersion and therefore you watch TV in class ALL THE TIME
Hendery
Drama teacher drama teacher drama teacher
All around good vibes
Finds things funnier than other students do
Truly anything goes in his class
Has never written up a student
Does stuff. Like you’re not the only one up there embarrassing yourself he does it first so y’all aren’t shy
No shyness allowed he will shell you like a pistachio
Renjun
Strict
It’s not even that he wants his students to do well or any dumb excuses like that he’s just strict
He gets teased all the time by the other teachers and his students cower at them
They honestly think it’s his twin brothers talking with the other teachers who is this man
Teaches a language class
So its like you either speak in that language or you don’t speak at all
Really cuts the stupid out of his class
And his class is really difficult for no reason everyone is like “But sir this is 101”
Jeno
Good wholesome teacher everyone can like
I can see him in like home ec
Kids come and talk to him all the time
His tests are so easy you are guaranteed to pass his class with flying colors as long as you know how to spell your name
Haechan
Study hall
Wants to have no responsibility Leaves the classroom all of the time, like he’s never in the classroom
Visits Mark so much
And Johnny so many visits to Mark and Johnny
Jaemin
He probably dabbles a little bit into phys ed
Also enjoys teaching so much
Has a big smile in class all the time
Learned everyone’s names down after the first day of class
Wants everyone to have a good ol’ time
Yangyang
Probably gets along with the younger boys 
Teaches something but people only learn german from him
No learning goes on in his vicinity
I love him but I feel like some people would find him a lil annoying
The jokes never stop
Chenle
Teaches freshmen math
He’s really hit or miss with his students
Sometimes they like him sometimes they don’t get him
I feel like he’s the teacher that always has like a group of students that eat lunch in his room
Always looks so fine like he dresses really well and all
Probably makes you do a lot of group projects I feel
Jisung
The youngest teacher
No one’s sure he’s actually allowed to be a teacher because he’s very discreet with his timeline like nobody knows his age but he has a mysterious amount of degrees
Like no one knows the details of his life he’s just there
Was mistaken as a student on multiple occasions

abt the feminising chuuya thing-
i totally agree- but not only does that take away literally everything that makes chuuya chuuya, the only thibg that still the smae being his like, name and appearance at that point- but its also mysoginistic? hope i spelled that right- cuz i get it i hate the whole turning chuuya (in this case cus ut sure as hell aint only him) into women, but its always using these weird ass cliques n shit? like its already harmful bcs of the heteronormativity pushed onto non hetero ships in general, and assigning gendered roles to certain characters who might be gender non conforming or a differesnt gender that the pne they are forced to be-
i dont really know how to say this tbh
but not only is it bad that hes now percied as a woman, but also the type of woman hes portrayed as- bcs at least as far as ive seen, its so fukin sexist and lowkey dehumanizing, by portarying the feminine characters like a cookie cutter mold that in the end has no other purpose than simply exist
i feel like the whole feminsing certain characters, overly feminising them that is, is harmful like, bith ways
im sorry if i couldnt really explain what i meant properly but english isnt my first language and im also v tired rn so if some stuff sounds weird thats why
🕸
ah, that’s okay i understand !! i agree, “feminization” can be harmful when it isn’t portrayed correctly especially when it waters down characters. at the end of the day, they still are fictional characters but some people ruin the fun in being creative.

Idea for combining the two very different personalities and powers of Lord Shrillington in the anime and games!
Cos in the game his power is 'being a weirdo who sucks at social interaction and he makes you weird too', and he's portrayed as almost like..cheshire cat esque? Like cinnamon roll cheshire cat? Like cheshire cat and mad hatter had a baby??? He's just a big goofball who doesnt realise he's goofy and takes everything very seriously and fancy style even when he's being totally ridiculous. The rare trickster who doesnt know he's a trickster! And his goofyness seems to be specifically 'head in the clouds' style, as a joke on fancy rich people being oblivious to regular life. Like his big ol eyes are meant to look spacey and his default expression is a spacey sort of surprised pikachu face and he always has question marks popping up around him that he can literally throw as an attack. And the small amount of dialogue he gets seems to imply that he has NO IDEA about any of the main plot or even what a yokai is. He's just here for fun tea parties! And completely doesnt notice all the other guests are giant monsters and also we're mid fight with an even gianter monster. He's so fuckin cute!! Protect this bean!!!
Buuuuut then the anime is a wildly different version that seems like they didnt get any info on this dude beyond just a picture od what he looks like, or something. Now instead of general goofyness/being so rich youre clueless, his power is making people scream? And specifically a very cute squeaky scream that makes everyone laugh at you. Which would have worked perfectly fine with his game personality but instead they wildly changed him into a completeky non clueless super evil super manipulative planner type guy who intentionally ruins the lives of humans to take revenge for his own tragic death. And apparantly he used to actually NOT be goofy as a human, and his Entire Thing wa sthat he was the most calm and composed man ever who has never been embarassed even once. So his asshole wife tried to embarass him with a bunch of pranks and then cheated on him with some other dude. And this was what it finally took to break his composure, and he screamed so hard he died on the spot fron a heart attack. And now he has the awful fate of being the personified elemental of embarassing screams when 99.99999% of his life was spent beibg super cool and he only had that one scream ever. Like wow the universe is way too cruel to this dude!! But then his personality is such an asshole that its hard to stay sympathetic to him :(
So yeah PROPOSED COMBINATION IDEA: just the better game personality but with the same sad anime backstory. It could work really well cos it could be like he never realized he died and he still thinks he's in a fancy rich person ballroom where he has to do everything all fancy. And his whole 'forever calm and composed' thibg could be less of him being boring and more of him just being afraid of nothing and always rolling with whatever happens because he's always sure it must be some new Rule Of Fancy Etiquette and everything is totally under control. Just 100% convinced he's still in his mansion and youre his new butler and oh i need to greet this new guest who appears to be an 80 foot tall oni, i guess! And his goofy mad hatter nature could be like his true self is shining through his fancyness now he's dead? Like when he was alive he really was a boring cliche englishman, but he was just a dude trapped by worries over social conventions and atuff. He was still a kind and cute goofball inside but had to hide it to keep up appearances. Probably a lot of times he came close to cracking his emotionless facade just because he thought of some silly joke in his head and couldnt stop laughing. Probabky every time he had a moment alone he was like OKAY PHEW TIME TO LET OUT ALL MY FUN FUNNESS *does a little dance and hopes nobody saw* He really kinda hated his life and the crushing expectations of his family. So being a goofy ghost is a lot better! Even if he finally realized he was a ghost i dont think he'd be particularly mad about it like the anime version. "Oh wait is there any proper etiquette for the afterlife?" "No basically the only rule for yokai is to be as goofy as possible" "IVE FOUND MY TRUE HOME" *sobs*
Also the anime's random thing of cute screams was very cute, so maybe make this dude make weird adorable noises even if its not exactly the same ones. Like make him all singsong sound effects like Hoaxy Coaxy in the third game!
ALSO he would be totally voiced by cosmo from fairly odd parents. God i wanna go make a compilation vid of lines from that guy that could fit this oc lol

I’d beg for help if I knew who to ask.
I can feel that I’m so fucking ill at the minute, but I honestly don’t know what to do to help myself.
Everything is getting to me. I’m so tired. I’m tired of people starting conversations with me with everything that’s gone to shit for them in the last week. My dad is one of the most negative people i know, and though i get along with him now better than before, he does make me feel like shit when everything he says is just filled with pessimism.
I can’t be bothered to even mention my mum, but honestly living at home is just. I’m so fucking done with it. Just the thought of it being like this for another month is almost unbearable. I’m so fucking miserable at home i cant even do simple things like shower and have time to myself (because she times how long I’m in there) or sing or anything. I’d love to move out and live elsewhere, maybe move in with my dad if it came to that or even couch surf. But honestly I’m too scared to. Despite the fact being at home scared the shit out of me and has pushed me beyond terrified, the thought of telling my mum I’m leaving home just seems dangerous. Besides, despite everything, I’m not sure I could live with the guilt of leaving her to live alone. Ridiculous, I know.
My brain feels like its filled with solid concrete, it physically pains me to form a coherent thought about anything, and those I can form are self loathing and about how no ones every going to love me etc. Which is triggered by just about everything, including seeing other people even mildly happy. I fucking hate myself for that one. My heart hurts like hell. Not even my heart, my entire fucking chest has physical pain because I’m just so sad. 
Life is just a fucking joke at the minute. I’m not sure there are many places in the country where people experience as much stress and pain as sixth form. The stress is making everyone so ill, physically and mentally, its disgusting. And I’m like a sponge, just soaking up everyone else’s mood and letting that weigh me down on top of my own problems.
Even just little things are getting to me, like how i cant travel freely because of fucking unsafe everything is. I’m here for one time, one time only for this relatively short life, and I cant explore the better things this world has to offer because some crackpot radical might blow me up?! Its so fucking unfair. And everyone is dying too young and it makes me so mad no one deserves this. 
Also it’s the most insignificant little thing but there’s a bench at school to commemorate a boy who killed himself a few years back and idfk why but they’ve moved it up to sixth form so now every day I’m going to have to walk past it and I’m not sure I’m going to handle that.
My options though are so limited. My mind just keeps jumping between self harm, suicide and running away. None of which are really possible right now.
Even self harm doesn’t feel like something that would help right now because there’s a certain kind of sad you have to be, and its not this. Plus I cant even find the energy. Then there’s suicide, which I know it sounds stupid but considering it as an option has almost become a coping mechanism for me by now. I doubt I’d do it and I’m constantly fighting against it with all i have to look forward to since I might thank myself for it one day. The hopelessness is just so claustrophobic right now, it feels like the best option. The mental health service in this country? Appalling. I’ve waited a whole year on a waiting list to see a low level Councillor who i saw for the first time today. I’m not sure we’re gonna get along (though I’ll give her a chance); she doesn’t seem to understand what I say just on a basic level and she scares me, so how am i supposed to trust her? But shes my only option unless i want go back to the bottom of the waiting list. I don’t think I’d survive that. But I know I have to be careful because if i admit how horrifically bad I am right now then I’ll get immediately dumped by her and put on a 2 year waiting list for a higher level Councillor. Since of course if she can’t deal with it, 2 years with no help is better. That’s it. That’s all my options. So its not exactly surprising suicide looks appealing in comparison.

Baron omatsuri and the secret island traumatizes me yet again, hooray!
Ok wow that was a nostalgia blast! Finally goddamn have a physical copy of this thing to own. Its never been dubbed and the only way to get it was this weird manga UK licensed reprint of a bunch of (i think) hong kong english subtitles. The style of the subtitles looks like that, at least. Its all weird and grainy and very very old fashioned early days of subtitling style, which contrasts completely with the modern dvd menus and box and stuff. And its also a weird combination disc of four different movies, it seems they just bought out a licensing package deal or something? And just baked it onto the disc without checking or editing anything. Its not really a funny sort of bad subtitles though, its just awkward phrasings of thibgs that are hard to understand or random typos or whatever, no legendarily hilarious stuff. I kinda dislike it more when subtitles are like this, when theyre like...actually written by a guy who speaks fluent english but he just never watched the actual movie so theres a bunch of rookie mistakes. Also has a strange case of what you usually only see on fansubs- the obsession with leaving everything in japanese to Sound Cool. Nah we cant call them the Tea Party Pirates we have to say the japanese word for that. Nah we cant have this man say mustache when he's doing the mustache pose and talking about his crew of entirely mustache men who all do this mustache pose NO it has to be Chobehige because its somehow deep and edgy to not understand the word for mustache. Like i feel if i was watching this sub first i would have no idea what was happening! At least its not as bad as that older sub i saw where they insisted on translating friends as "crew", even when it was llike..a singular. This one man is my crew and here are all my other crews! Like i feel like that subber probably originally did that dumb old fandom thing of INSISTING that you had to say Nakama in japanese and Capitalized and it was a Very Important japanese word for specifically pirate friends that was Impossible To Translate. And then they just did a ctrl + F replace on the whole thing and made an incomprehensible mess. Also for some reason sanji just yells DOCTOR out of nowhere (chopper wasnt even in the scene) and baron omatsuri's one syllable "oh" is translated as some long string of what seems to be baseball jargon..?
But ANYWAY the movie is still fuckin awesome and i actually noticed EVEN MORE dark shit and subtle storytelling that i missed when i was a kid! The whole 'small child zombie stares blankly at the place where a sword stabbed through his chest and cant understand why he got back up' scene is EVEN MORE emotionally destructuve than i thought! Cos the subtlety of the voiceacting seems to make the poor kid sound so tired and resigned to it? He's desperately asking and his father figure feeds him the same old lies he's done a million times about how he's totally still alive and everything is fine. Like wow i missed that inplication that this has happened before! And then he kinda sounds like he's actually aware that Baron is lying and he's just pretending to believe him to make him feel better. And then he starts turning back into a corpse and he doesnt panic like muchigoro or not realize whats happening like the grandpas do. He just looks straight at his hand falling apart and tries to lie to Baron to make him feel better. *long shot of him from behind before you see whats happened* "I'm just feeling dizzy again. I've got used to it." *him staring blankly at his body falling apart, not even capable of feeling sad about it anymore* "Don't worry...i've got used to it." *thud*
Like FUCKING HELL this film is the best damn existential horror thing ever and why the FUCK did they market it as a fun happy kids film? it probably would have been way more successful if the twist wasnt kept all twisty, honestly.
And also WOW YEAH theres a lot of stuff thats the subtlest goddamn storytelling in the universe and youd never notice unless you watched this film a million times like i did! Like during the intro when everythibg still seems all fun and cute and normal, the advert for the Totally Innocent Not A Trap Super Secret Island Resort is being read over some random shots of waves and stuff. But then right near the end you see those same shots again and it becomes clear that it was literally the view from Baron's eyes as he was falling from the ship and drowning, desperately trying to keep his head above water and strain his eyes to see if anyone else had survived. All the moments that just looked like camera cuts were actually when his head fell beneath the waves. Thats fuckin amaizng you straight up showed the ending in the beginning and we didnt notice????
Oh and also right before THE FUCKIN TERRIFYING MUCHIGORO DEATH SCENE you see him casually mention being 'sleepy' a few scenes earlier. It just passes by without notice and you think that he's just drunk until he suddenly starts going from comedic slurring to fucking asphixiating and the SKIN ON HIS FINGERS PEELING OFF. Oh hey! Another thing i didnt notice before! FUCKING THAT. A fun game for you on your rewatch! Looking out to find the secret finger horror! Ha ha ha...ha...
Also MAN OH WOW all the subtle signs of Baron getting more desparate throughout the movie and how it seems the time limit for the zombies was almost up and he had to kill these specific pirates right now because he couldnt spare even a few more hours. In retrospect it makes sense how he was slipping up and leaving evidence for the heroes to figure him out. And its just so subtly offputting and strange how he goes from making a big fun performance about the festival early on and then starts subtky rushing through the formalities faster. Like you dont eveb conciously notice the tone is changing until suddenly BAM the full change happens and you realise you missed all those signs! And aaaa its so fuckin sad how you see him come running when muchigoro drops dead and he's like fuckin GET OUT OF THE WAY DAMMIT and kneels down next to the body and theb he just..turns emotionless again and goes ITS TIME FOR THE NEXT CHALLENGE. It is time. Its now. Shut the fuck up and do it, i dont have time to deal with this shit, just die so i can bring my friend back. (Tho of course you dont know thats why at the time) And then whats most jarring about the whole scene to me is how he's like "okay fuck it theres no more fun theres no more attractions, if youre not gonna play along then the final game is just i shoot your damn head off" WHILE YKNOW STILL STANDING OVER THE CORPSE OF HIS FRIEND AND STARING DAGGERS INTO THEM LIKE ITS THEIR FAULT FOR DARING TO CLING ONTO LIFE and then a fuckin half finished hapoy fun carnival game sign pops up in the backgroubd and everyone walks past it. Why was that somehow both hilarious and terrifying????? Just fuckin 'whoops we had this thing ready to go but alright its murder time i guess' and everyone IS SUDDENLY PACKING HEAT AND RIDDLING OUR HEROES WITH BULLETS???
And also even more subtly Baron just?? Stays with muchigoro?? Like notice how the entirety of the endgame takes place around where the dude dropped dead. And how when mustache pirate guy saves luffy you see Baron just walking in circles around the same area angrily shooting arrows at nothing in complete desperation even though the dude is gone and itd make more sense to run after him. No he stays standing right there and actually looks really damn relieved when luffy comes back, he's like 'holy shit you really were stupid enough to walk right into my trap jesus christ im so glad but also youre a dumbass'. And he fights entirely using arrows at this point so you might not even notice that he barely walks more than just circling a two meter radius of fuckin DEAD BEST FRIEND CORPSE. Which btw blends intonthe shadows for this entire scene and they only draw attention it again after Baron wibs and muchigoro comes back to life. And UGH MY HEART you see him smile genuinely for the firstvtime and he's like 'im so glad youre okay' and muchigoro is like 'haha im more than okay i can do somersaults!' and generally being a FUCKING TREASURE and this poor fuckin horrible evil man is hugging his buddy and gently leading him away from the battlefield so he doesnt norice he was just fuckin murdering some dudes to ressurect him. God the scariest damn thing about this film is how the zombies dont know theyre zombies and honestky they probably wouldnt even agree with their boss's plan to kill people to keep them alive. They justvthink they live a perfectly normal happy life on hapoy festival island, and he wants them to stay that way and never feel pain again :(
Aaaaand then yeah the infamous scene of revealing this horrifying intestines flower is growing out of the flesh on his back and all the corpses its digesting are pushed against the undulating flesh of its throat like a snake devouring its prey. And its cutesy fake flower face grows infinate eyes as it just keeps laughing and laughing. And then it gets graphically blown apart and the poor goddamn parasite host tries to shove the bloody instestines back into its body, knowing that without this horrifying monster chewing on his goddamn veins all his friends will go back to being dead.
THE END
THE FUCKING END
God it ends so abruptly seriously
I still cry my eyes out every time at the ending monologue of Baron dying and meeting all the souls of his dead friends and theyre crying telling him he shouldnt be here, they wish he'd been able to find another reason to live without him...
And then THE END
JAUNTY MUSIC OVER THE CREDITS
THE FUCKIN END I GUESS
What a great but very oddly executed movie. Seriously i feel it could have worked better if it was given space to breathe and more deeply explore the dark themes rather than the weirdness of trying to fool the audience into thinking it was cheerful and innocent. Like all of this shit happens in the last 30 minutes of the movie! They spend 60 minutes on the fun carnival games! What a strange sense of priorities!!
I WOULD DEVOUR A MILLION HOURS MORE OF DEEP SAD ZOMBIE CONTENT
I am like the Lily of fanfics
Oh yeah btw the horrifying deadly elder god spine parasite thing is named Lily and it looks pretty much exactly like flowey from undertale. This film kinda spoiled me for that game LOL ive never trusted a single talking flower ever since!

Man, why is it such a recurring thing in kingdom hearts that all the opening songs have completely unfittibg possibly-bad-implications type opening songs?
Like lots have peopke have already talked about how "Simple And Clean" is a very strange translation of "Hikari" with literally nothing in common lyrics wise. Its so weird! Usually the english versions are some totally different generic pop song, which is bizarre considering the dubbed versions are all sung by the same woman. I dunno if maybe she's not familiar with the language so someone else writes the translated lyrics? *shrug*
But seriously people have pointed out how "don't get me wrong i love you but do i have to meet your father" is LITERALLY THE OPPOSITE of the japanese song talking about introducing your partner to your parents as like.. A positive and romantic thing. And a lot of the other lyrics follow the same formula, this sort of "i dont want to commit to a relationship, cant we just keep having casual sex without calling me your boyfriend?" Which is a BIZZARE concept to have as a theme song for a kids game! Seriously the big main chorus is "if you walk away dont expect me to cry about it" and "i want it simple and clean otherwise youre out on your ass". Like the ONLY reason this isnt outright 100% clear a song about casual sex is because of the euphemistic language. And its left floating in this weird liminal space where you dont know if it was intentional or if this is just a pile of word salad englsih pop song ish sentences that the writer didnt know would come off kinda bad. Cos i mean i cant imagine why anyone would intentionally want to make this change??? "Hey lets make the good love song Bad" It's frustrating cos my brain still goes "simple and clen = better" just cos it has all the nostalgic value and i never heard the japanese version til i was an adult. Alas!
And then Sanctuary avoided any of those awkward moments by being 100% incomprehensible to the point that nobody can even agree on the lyrics cos some bits are PLAYED BACKWARDS! O.o catchy tho
But kh3 brought back the tradition in full force! Seriously man i always feel kinda uncomfortable hearing the whole Think Twice part of Think Twice. Its gotta be that they didnt mean it, right?? Cos "if you have any doubts about the relationship, i dont wanna know" is a really unromantic thing sorry. Like they dont say just "oh man i hope my girl doesnt have doubts" but its phrased like "hey im pretty sure she's thinking twice about me...hey just..what if you pretend youre not?" Like thats not healthy yo. If you're getting cold feet it is ALWAYS better to talk about it with your partner rather than leaving it to the last minute and running away at the altar or something. If you wanna break up its always best to try and talk it out, mass media has buried us in this idea that you should hate every ex and always break up in some dumb fight or something but you really can end it peacefully and remain on good terms with each other if you're lucky. And also if youre having doubts about whether you want to date them or not then talking about it could help with that, it could help you work through your problems without splitting up if thats what you want. I can understand being terrified of the prospect of talking about your problems, but "if you think twice i dont wanna know" shouldnt really be played as a romantic chorus instead of the fight or flight panic response it really is.
I dunno lol! Does anyone know more about this or have other opinions? Is it really meant to be read that way or is it just a Classic Meaningless Deep Words Song that everyone has their own interprettion of? And i dunno maybe im only seeing the kh3 one as being this weird commitmentphobic 'you have to do whatever i tell you to and never act too attached or not attatched enough' thibg cos the kh1 song was already like that...? I mean Think Twice onky has the one iffy line while all of Simple And Clean was maximum uncomfortable lol
Seriously an ACTUAL LINE in this thing is "dont get me wrong i love you but do i have to meet your father? do i have to walk on water? Maybe someday you'll understand what i meant when i said no." It just sounds like some entitled prick claiming that the most basic requirements of being a good boyfriend/girlfriend/partner are tooooo muuuuch and oh its your fault cos oh man why would you get the crazy idea that i love you. Booo! Hypothetical song person! The true villain of kingdom hearts!
