a crude summary of one of my favorite musicals

I made my own little addition, hope you don't mind <3

i will fucking die on this hill btw. carl is in that tier of side characters u could ponder forever off the crumbs 🤏 provided bc they are doing so much with him. he’s security. he’s the guy with the expense account. he’s brimming with fucking joy at doing Science Experiments. he’s a coworker. he’s a pal. he’s the guy watching over you like a guardian angel while you’re dragged into a long slumber. and probably your death. he’s the guy telling you “you’ll do great” as you beg for help. literally the character ever.

people will claim to be filled with whimsy and joy for life but then hate musicals……. the vile tongue of man will never cease lying

literally the worst way of ending a series is “all the survivors are happily straight married with tons and tons of babies!”

people still getting mad at this post i made in 2014 so I will add here. in 2026. that the point of this post isn’t “happy endings bad” its when the story’s only way to imagine a happy ending is a heterosexual nuclear family for everyone.

when i was a kid i was so mad all the time bc i thought someday i'd have to be somebody's wife i didn't know it was optional. is everybody reminding the young girls in their lives that it's optional.

sometimes you invent mind prisons for yourself for no good reason and youre like "i really like being in the mind prison" even though you dont actually like being in the mind prison

we cannot let saying 'i love you' or kissing onscreen be the standard for correctly making a character canonically gay because some characters would never do that but are gay
