If You Know What I Mean

I enjoy hilarity.

I would like to be a Ravenclaw only because I want to be that Ravenclaw who opens the dorms for people with the worst ever answers to questions that are also correct, like 

“Why is a raven like a writing desk” “They both have the letter R in them" 

“What is the truth?” “The word with the letters T, R, U and H in it" 

“What is the answer to this riddle?” “The answer to this riddle is the answer to this riddle, of course”

“What has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon and three legs at night?” “Not you, obviously”

“Which came first, the chicken or the egg?” “Well you just mentioned the chicken first, so by virtue of the order of your sentence, it’ll be the chicken. Also alphabetically.”

because if I were ever in Ravenclaw it won’t be for being smart, it’ll be for being a smartass

“Where do Vanished objects go?”

“Somewhere other than where they were Vanished from, duh.”

[willoftitanium]

“What is the truth?”

“Sarah is cheating on Robert with Dylan.”

4th year standing behind me: omg no way

[vethox]

I’m constantly torn between “if it’s meant to be, it will be” and “if you want it, go and get it.”

speaking of art history

this is Undine by Chauncey Bradley Ives. she’s at the Smithsonian.

and this is her from the back

that is marble, y’all. 

MARBLE.

carved so thin you can SEE THE LIGHT THROUGH IT.

i just.

wow.

fucking art, y’all.

fucking.

art.

[boxlunches]

the realism of thin fabric folding and draping over a freaking perfectly sculpted body is killing me

[glintglimmergleam]

a lot of prescriptive linguists (the fancy term for snotty english majors, faux-talgic baby boomers, racist gatekeepers, and other subdivisions of the language police) like to shame The Youth for lazy capitalization and punctuation, but the interesting thing is that most young ppl i know who build their lives around texting are actually pretty damn deliberate about their language choices

“u” and “you” show degrees of closeness w/ your partner; using punctuation at the end of a reply text indicates tone; capitalizing certain words in the middle of the sentence is for Emphasis; sometimes we’re sloppy and sometimes we make mistakes but there is a real grammar to internet communication because by “grammar” i mean a “code of language rules that society agrees upon in order to create meaning”, and that is the opposite of being lazy

(tumblr absolutely has such a grammar and you can tell when someone’s not fluent)

the old guard is passionately defending a pure linguistic territory that we don’t want anymore, it’s not useful enough for 21st century relationships dependent on the subtleties of texts

[knotted-ribs]

this is actually really important, since text based communication lacks the ability to indicate meaning through tonal variations, it’s really so smart and impressive that we’re modifying our written grammar to show emphasis and differences in meanings and tone

[textiles]

The proclamation rings from the tall Ivory walls, “You can’t have meaning where we find none!” the huddled masses reply with a soft chant of “smh”

[chief0keefe]

It’s hilarious that non-Americans on Tumblr are all like “OMG DENNY’S TUMBLR MAKES ME WISH I LIVED IN AMERICA SO I COULD EAT THERE,” while us Americans will literally only eat at Dennys if it’s 3 in the morning and we’ve lost control of our life.

[candyglynnwilder]

You don’t go to Denny’s. You end up at Denny’s.

[mildlyamused]

And not that Denny’s. Let’s go to the good one across town.

[jakeshandy]
