Not having any family or friends, seeing that everybody is much happier without you, really sucks. Oh well, you're born alone and you die alone, right?

white dude in this horror movie : *translates old arabic text* *somehow it rhymes perfectly in english* 

[how-long-it-glows-deactivated20]

Now I really wanna see a horrible faltering translation from one of these movies, like “Whomsoever enters this room, they shall… well, this word is like… literally it means ‘unbecome,’ but it was used as a euphemism for death, pooping, and—wait, when was this carved?  was it 15th century? Cuz it was a euphemism for sex too in the 15th century.  This is either a cursed crypt, a bathroom, or a royal bedroom. Who wants to roll the dice?”

“You guys, I’ve gotta be honest, okay? This thing’s written in some kind of weird localized dialect, and I’ve only ever studied the standard form of the language. I mean, this part right here…I can’t even tell if it’s some kind of error, or an obscure slang phrase…whatever it is, I have no idea what the fuck it means.”

‘this is written in ancient sumerian. it’s about… uh… well that word is… uh. okay this is either a poem about farming, or straight-up a nasty sex guide. it might be both. i want a shower.’

“okay see the thing is in one dialect this word is the name of a terrifying Demon but in a completely different language from the same area that has the same writing system and gave a lot of loan words to the first, it means ‘horse’ - and the context is really not helping”

“You know what?  This thing is bound in human skin and the walls are bleeding let’s just leave.”

Just because Ive heard people whining already about it: If you decided to start fresh in the last few days in the gym, try to ignore all the people whining about you being in their space or a resolutioner (which is lame as hell btw when people whine about it). They started somewhere and at some point resolved to get stronger or fitter and the time of year is inconsequential. We’re all playing for the same team on that level. If you wanna start fresh with a new year and a new you thats perfectly okay. If someone else wants to be a whiny baby about then maybe they should resolve not to be such a fucking baby and instead ask to work in and embrace someone who now shares their journey.
