Laughing On The Internet

Reblogging As Fast As I Can! Okay really my Likes got out of control. Since I didn't want to compromise on my first blog being all original content, this blog is where I'm sorting them out. If I post something ancient from your blog I'm probably not stalking you; it has just been sitting in the depths of my likes for too long.

for the first like 14 years of my life i thought that the story of saint valentine and valentines day were a celebration of a massive gay polyamorous marriage and let me tell you, i was sorely disappointed when i learned i had massively misunderstood that story

[acreaturecalledgreed]

i was told the basic story of “the king had made it illegal for young men to get married so that they could be drafted off to go to war (as married men with families were not, apparently)” and that “saint valentine thought this was cruel, and married the young men in secret”

what this was supposed to communicate to me was “saint valentine would marry young men to their girlfriends in secret as a priest at his own risk and thats why we celebrate valentines day” 

what i got out of it was “saint valentine married a shitton of dudes so he could protect his army of husbands from having to go to war and it was beautiful and love can halt war in its tracks and thats why we celebrate valentines day”

and thats why the assumption that a child would automatically get a hetero interpretation of the story and the innate unclarity of the english language made me think that valentines day was about mass gay poly marriage until i was like fourteen and recited the story to a friend who stared at me like id grown three extra heads

i like my version better im not gonna lie

[narastories]

haha NO SHIT he does!!!

[laughing-on-the-internet]

They definitely DO NOT get better. They get much worse. I read through most of the series. Every female character is only used as a tool to make the main character more of a whiny, misogynistic, edge-lord, through his constant failure to “save” them. They are often flat with little agency of their own. Also the protagonist can’t look at a woman without sexualizing her, even when he’s “trying not to sexualize her” because she’s his best friend’s daughter. It’s a fuck boy series that has no real respect for women.

FINALLY watched “a knight’s tale.” pretty fun but literally what the hell was jocelyn wearing for the entirety of the movie

[currentlycryingaboutlancelot]

????????

[english-history-trip]

EXCEPT

THE 16TH CENTURY WHITE HAAAAAT

She was just fashion-forward, you guys

[currentlycryingaboutlancelot]

@threadbareturnbacks WAIT this is so cool!!!

[eussoros]

Knight's Tale didn't try to match the aesthetic, it tried to match the VIBES, and it hit in so many ways.

[baronfulmen]

I really appreciated that it started with the crowd singing We Will Rock You because that's an incredible way to set audience expectations.

[finnglas]

A Knight's Tale belongs to what my wife and I call the Ren Faire Genre - not historically accurate, but historically VIBING with some strangely historically accurate notes thrown in (Chaucer!?).
