[empirical and easily verifiable claim about a work of art], but that's just my interpretation
staring transfixed at one painting on the museum wall for half an hour until a curious stranger comes and asks what you think of it, saying after a careful pause “I think he used paint for this one”
thanks to this workplace harassment training video my coworkers and I now say this to each other on a near-daily basis
The funniest sword fight scene in the history of cinema.
BEST. SWORD FIGHT. EVER.
Let’s be honest, this is how I would sword fight.
@warmageragnar Lewis Vs Otranto, a realistic version.
#what on earth is this?
The Court Jester starring Danny Kaye, Basil Rathbone, and the amazing Glynis Johns, and Angela Lansbury and it is all around a fun time.
All kidding aside, watch Basil Rathbone’s foot work. He knows fencing, and sets up the form even though he’s still playing up the stage blows for Danny Kaye to flail at for comedic effect.
Okay, but I need to talk about this because it’s even funnier if you know the context... Basil Rathbone was one of the greatest swordsmen in Hollywood history. Which is why he almost never won any of his onscreen fights–he was good enough that he knew how to effectively make the other guy look even better. That’s why the swordfight in The Adventures of Robin Hood looks so awesome even though Errol Flynn is nowhere near Rathbone’s level.
But this fight, right here? Was one of the only fights where he needed a stunt double. Because while he was able to keep Danny Kaye from being seriously injured, Rathbone himself nearly got skewered a few times by Kaye’s flailing around. So in a bizarre way, this is probably the closest to an even match Rathbone had in his career… just not for the reasons you’d expect.
“Don’t you know, there are some things that can beat smartness and foresight? Awkwardness and stupidity can. The best swordsman in the world doesn’t need to fear the second best swordsman in the world; no, the person for him to be afraid of is some ignorant antagonist who has never had a sword in his hand before; he doesn’t do the thing he ought to.”
-Mark Twain, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court (1889)
The origin of a saying I’ve seen quoted in various works of fiction - “The best swordsman does not fear the second best, he fears the worst since there’s no telling what that idiot is going to do.”
The rest of this movie is equally awesome, 10/10 would highly recommend! Both Glynis Johns and Angela Lansbury were 🔥

not gonna lie, this actually looks like a good idea.

“Every bite’s going to taste like Victoria’s Secret” fucking KILLED me.
Me reading your tarot cards: "Okay, I have drawn the Empress, the Queen of Discs, the, uh.... jack of diamonds, blue eyes white dragon, a couple of Swamp lands, and Pikachu."

Here’s the orbital period of our solar system’s 8 major planets (how long it takes each to travel around the sun). Their size is to scale and their speed is accurate relative to Earth’s. The repetition of each GIF is proportional to their orbital period. Mercury takes less than 3 months to zoom around Sol, Neptune takes nearly 165 years.
fuck this gifset do you know how long i sat here waiting for fucking neptune to drag its lazy ass into the frame

having anxiety is like: *makes small mistake*
my shit brain: that was very cringy of you I won’t let you forget that one
it's dumb that stress makes your hair fall out slowly. you should reach a certain level of stress and it should all fall off at once in a heap
waiter: enjoy your meal!
me: you too *becomes instantly bald*

when i die i’m going to get a qr code engraved on my headstone and if you scan it it’ll take you directly to a livestream of my decaying body within the coffin
i will also instruct my grandchildren to take previous recordings i made before i died of the empty coffin and occasionally intersperse them into the livestream so it looks like i periodically vanish, such as on full moons
