Sketches Photographed Badly @oxyroc - Tumblr Blog

Inside of me there is a waifish effete poet and a grizzled chain-smoking accountant and they have to figure out how to work together to save the children's hospital from an evil land developer. If either of them takes complete control of the project, they will both fail, and Mr. Burns will blow up all the orphans. This is how publishing a novel works.

One of my favorite things is modern adaptations that leave people with the same careers they had in the original material, because unless you’re a cop or a doctor that practically never happens.

Irene Adler’s an opera singer. We still have those! They don’t have the same subtext exactly, but nothing is going to because we aren’t the Victorians. She could continue to be an opera singer. I have never seen this happen.

Jonathan Harker can still be in real estate. That’s a job people have. A modern story that still involves Dracula contacting his firm to help him purchase property sounds amazing actually.

A modern adaptation of Dracula where you keep seeing Jonathan Harker’s face on bus stop bench ads for his realtor office.

I was about to joke about Quincey Morris still being a cowboy, but then it occurred to me that he’s not actually a cowboy in the source material, is he? He’s the wealthy heir of a Texas ranch-owning family who just acts like an Old West cowboy. If anything, that’s even more plausible today than it was in 1897.

I didn’t realize the pun at first and just thought, “yes, geese with arms WOULD be scary”.

I was literally saying to my therapist, “I think the core of my intimacy issues is—” and then the internet went out and our zoom call crashed. I left her on a real cliff hanger

A spoon's only objective in life is to make soup go upwards, and it knows this. That's why when you put one under a running tap it blasts the water way high. The spoon thinks there's suddenly TONS of soup to deal with and it freaks out.
