never ever ever ever show me shows/movies or anything based solely off of romance that you bc there's an 87% chance im going to ruin it for you no matter who you are
#romance is very much not my thing#im generally fine with it if it's backround or there but obviously not the main plot point#i just do not like it. which is kinda funny considering my sibling is the complete opposite. total fucking romantic at heart#only rlly reads fanfic based around ships. ships literally everything. and yuh#we were talkign the other day and they cannot handle angst and i tell them about my angsty fic only lifestyle and just stares at me#horrified and goes 'noOooOOo why would you do that??' and proceeds to explain that they basically only read romance and fluff. sometimes bo#th. <- which i find pretty boring#usually my romance fics at least have healthy doses of angst#like near death experiences#and gun shot wounds#rant#something to know bout me is that i can be very blunt but also as i've learned not be so blunt at certain times#my parents never did santa with me n my siblings so whenever i'd go to my friends/relatives around christmas my parents would have#to explicitly tell all of us not to tell ANYONE that santa is real#bc me and my siblings have all ruined santa for at least one person before we reached the age of 8#Even now i still do not get what the point is in telling ur kids there's some old dude who manages to go through chimneys and give u presen#ts you'll like. and typing it out santa just sounds like a creepy old man so yeah.#Like why would you submit urself to that? you just have to get kids more presents and then deal with the fallout of telling them you delibe#rately lied to them and fed them false information. why. what is the pOINT#anywho im rambling#yeah anyways it was like that with everything lmao. my parents had to tell us not to spoil the tooth fairy#I watched my cousin have an existential crisis at age 6 after my sibling told them santa wasn't real#i remember politely nodding along as my friend told me about how the tooth fairy had given her money#my aunt always thought my parents were spoiling our childhood and should've let us believe or whatever but honestly#knowing myself as i now do i probably would've developed more trust issues then i already have and this time towards my parents#if they told me about santa. like yeah that's something that would've actually affected me.#so long story short. santa klaus is bullshit and literally makes no sense. don't lie to your kids.
