i wanna see goku and raditz fight like brothers. like BROTHERS-brothers. i wanna see an extended sequence that's like that group of bros bopping and swatting and chasing and skidding and sliding and hopping like bro-sized kitty cats through a house and out into the fucking snow.
except it's two saiyans who can fucking fly, and they instinctively scamper, and one of them is enormous and made of hair, and they are both Grade-A King Shits when it comes to fucking with each other, and they love to chase.
i wanna hear, "FUCK OFF, RADITZ!!!" and then a zillion things falling over while raditz goes barreling through the entire zone, guffawing with hellion glee, and goku comes bounding after him in all three dimensions like a molten pinball.
i wanna hear, "DAMMIT, COCK-ROT, I'M GONNA--!!!" and then goku streaks past, shrieking like a boiling kettle and trying not to pee his pants from laughing so hard and running so fast, and raditz comes bursting around the corner like a tornado full of avalanches.
There are many issues inherent in the Little House series as they are a product of their time, and since I recognize them, I feel fine still enjoying parts on reflection. One of them being the fact that judging solely by the books (I haven’t seen the tv show) Almanzo Wilder’s criteria for a wife were:
1. Pretty name
2. Good singer
3. Likes horses
4. Can recite half the entirety of existing U.S history
5. Once made up an insulting rhyme about, and led a minor school uprising against, his least favorite sibling.
On this and apparently only this criteria, the guy went “yeah okay. 12 mile drive in a buggy in the freezing cold every weekend to see this girl and get her home from a shitty housing set up seems like the move.”
Being a younger sibling, I can only assume the last criteria on the list was the most important.
i feel like. some of the people who criticise obi-wan and anakin's friendship... don't really have siblings.
they do not understand the whole "you are my best friend. you are the dumbest person alive. i would die for you. i will instigate fake wwe fights as a form of affection. no one else is allowed to say anything bad about you. i know you so well i can read your mind. i will lend you my charger over my dead body. i will never get up to get you some water, but you are my favourite person alive. we have so many inside jokes. i will not shut up about your bad driving." dynamic
