Chesteron&#x27;s Fence

I A M A L I V E

#dixon brothers #merle dixon you degenerate pumpkin roller

I’m a mystery to my own damn self...

So for my b-day, movie night went to the movies. It came down to a choice between Zootopia and Deadpool.

Deadpool won, mostly because - as was noted - I could watch Zootopia at my mom’s place. Deadpool ??? NSM.

I enjoyed this movie much more than I thought I would - there were many jokes that were actually funny, the writing had some subtlety, which I was *not* expecting, the romance was stupidly sweet, the gal characters were really well done, and the story made a lot more sense than many movies which took themselves far more seriously.

But I can not over emphasize how over-the-top inappropriately gutter most of the jokes were. And a lot of the dialog. And a good deal of the visuals. And the stuff that wasn’t gutter/splatter was jock jokes.

I mean, I knew what it said on the box when I bought it. But still.

Also? Zero reason for Black Widow to not get her own film. Operation: Budapest - we wants it, precious.

Explaining Farscape can be a difficult process, so I made this.

ME:

Pesters chestertonsfence for period AU Caryl fic; bribes with pictures of Norman Reedus on horseback.

Realizes there are very few pictures of Norman Reedus on horseback as Norman Reedus is afraid of horses. (see Sean Patrick Flanery for further details.)

Pads original ‘Norman Reedus on Horseback’ post with gratuitous pictures of the Irish countryside and Norman Reedus in period dress.

Considers writing to Norman Reedus’s agent to encourage getting him more period roles that involve horseback riding a) so that we may all enjoy the pretty, and b) so that I may continue to pester chestertonsfence for said period AU Caryl fic by bribing her with pictures of Norman Reedus on horseback.

…

(Includes original pic of Reedus on horseback plus tempting gif for good measure.)

I’m so happy to this on my dash again.

This is like the tumblr equivalent of a bubble bath and a glass of nice Cab.

why does this have 32k notes? it’s just a picture of a knife in a ranch bottle, is there some unspoken joke that 32 thousand people share? what is going on here, i dont get it. it’s just a fucking picture of a knife in a ranch bottle. is there some spiritual connection people have to this picture? is there some ominous and mystical reasoning that this has 32 thousand notes? do people reblog this because it makes them look like some indie blogger? or is there just something funny to this? someone please explain

REMIND ME TO REBLOG THIS EVERY MARCH 15TH UNTIL I DIE

I have decided that picking up trash in my neighborhood is bad for my soul.

It’s been a while since I found an exercise that made me hate my fellow citizens quite so much.

I am being unjustly yelled at rn.

subversivegrrl

Define,“unjustly.”

I-uh. Might have- uh- written something.

BUT I AM INNOCENT.

Unjustly my broad freckled ass.

You can appeal all you like, you still deserved every ounce of grief you get.

I love the phrase “what the entire fuck” because it implies that there exists some scenario that warrants only a “what the partial fuck”.

morkaischosen

Similarly “what the actual fuck,” implying “what the figurative fuck” or “what the imaginary fuck”.

prokopetz

“What the actual fuck” is an interesting one because “actual” has so many distinct shades of meaning.

“Entire” generally means “whole” or “complete”, but depending on the particular context, “actual” can denote any or all of “real”, “literal”, “concrete”, “truthful”, “grounded” or “factual”.

Thus, when deriving the contrastive phrase, in addition to “what the imaginary fuck” and “what the figurative fuck”, we could also reasonably arrive at “what the hypothetical fuck”, “what the fraudulent fuck”, “what the fanciful fuck” or “what the counterfactual fuck”.

Language is fun!

#research geek #english language is pure #as a corncrib whore

And don’t forget cultural/professional uses of ‘actual’ -

- so that it would not be so much ‘what the actual fuck’ as it would be ‘who the actual fuck’ - and along with that, the implication that there was a whole crew of fuckups actually running the goatrope that one poor sucker was taking the credit/blame for.

I will @ you when I finish writing Glenn becoming a serial killer.

Announcing CarylBYOB 2016

It is with great excitement we launch CarylBYOB officially today with the declaration that this year’s charity is SCAN.

SCAN are a charity based in Virginia with the mission statement: Stop Child Abuse Now (SCAN) of Northern Virginia is a non-profit organization whose mission is to promote the well-being of children, improve parent-child relations and prevent child abuse and neglect

We have chosen this charity in order to pay tribute to Sam Anderson, who sadly knew all too well about an abusive home in his short life. Of course, it is also in tribute to Sophia Peletier who too grew up in an unsafe environment.

SCAN offer help by:

EDUCATING the community about the scope, nature and consequences of child abuse and neglect and the importance of positive, nurturing parenting; PROVIDING direct parent education; & ADVOCATING for children in the community, the legislature and the courts.

So, now we have the charity, what do we do?

Well, as with the first CarylBYOB we will be fundraising around a Carol-centric episode.This year that episode will be Episode 13, airing on March 13 2016.

We know this episode is Carol-centric, and we know we’re going to have out hearts in our mouths throughout it.

So how CarylBYOB works is you donate the amount you would normally spend on booze, ice-cream, tissues or therapy bills to get you through a traumatic episode of Walking Dead.

How do I DONATE?

Click the DONATE button on our page - carylbyob.tumblr.com - via this you can by Paypal, credit card, debit card or from a bank account.

If you would like to pay from your Paypal account to ours straight, our Paypal address is [email protected]

If you would like to donate straight to SCAN please do so and let us know, or contact us if you’d like to donate in another way.

You can start donating NOW though our main day for donation will be 28 Feb.

In the meantime please reblog, tweet and spread the word! Help us give a voice to children like Sam and Sophia.

Please consider supporting CaryolBYOB’s fundraiser. I am particularly pleased to see that SCAN has as one of its goals to recruit male volunteers, and that its services are not limited to just women victims of abuse. To me, this means that CBYOB has listened to feedback from previous years, and is attempting to respond to that. Yah!

...so.

Where are my ‘Jesus is an ACTUAL NINJA’ pic sets/icons/etc?

(Not thinking about Carol romances at this moment, mostly because after @nocturnallly yammered on about the ‘30 Days’ parallels, I am pretty much sold on the analogy to the Beth/Daryl non-thing, and so not thinking about that. I am worried about Carol, though. A lot.)

(PS: it is one thing to scramble into lifeboats when you think your ‘ship is sinking. It is yet another thing to grab a cannonball and jump into the water over the Mariana trench. Esp when you’ve only got a bit of bilge water sloshing around the bulkheads. Perspective, peps, perspective.)
