I love this so much! Thank you!!!

[solamedibble]

I’m so sorry this is a day late (huge technical difficulties at my house), but I really hope you like these! My gift to @florianem for the Tolkien Secret Santa! Happy Holidays! @officialtolkiensecretsanta

[solamedibble]

tolkien secret santa here! oh that musical theatre tidbit about your url was so fun! i'm very much a musical noob so i'd never have guessed haha but that sounds really cool :) so, while we're on the topic, do you have any favourite songs (musical or otherwise)? ohh and what are your favourite colour(s)? mine are yellow and green :) i have my little helpers (my cats) working tirelessly on your gift :3

It was a silly show lol I’m currently obsessed with Taylor Swift’s new album; but I’m a sucker for Disney soundtracks (especially the Phil Collins ones), and I absolutely adore the music from Anastasia, both the movie and the Broadway show. My favorite colors are pink, lilac, and turquoise :D

the GRINCH X TONY THE TIGER Fanfic is live on ao3! hope this causes you all tremendous distress 😘

monthly subscribers can skip ahead to the next chapter

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

actual real things about this fic:

the Grinch is nonbinary & uses they/them pronouns

the Grinch is autistic

it takes place in the Jim Carrey movie universe, so the Grinch has two lesbian moms

(side note, in the movie it was implied the grinch was conceived at a swinger’s holiday party, but we don’t have to talk about that)

tony was a professional athlete who had a lucrative career appearing on cereal boxes

tony the tiger is divorced w/ kids

the Grinch is in therapy

[wereallcurioushere12]

I am sending this to all my friends gaud.

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

there are over 300 comments on the fic so far, and i’m reading all of them, and i have to say my favorite comments on the ones where people are sharing this with family and friends. sometimes out of spite, sometimes earnestly. 

thank you for spreading me around like the invasive fungus i so truly am

[media-sickos-international]

I submitted it to my english teacher (our assignment was to find a well written work to share on the internet)

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

…I am absolutely frothing at the mouth to know your teacher’s response please

[media-sickos-international]

this is it

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

this was beyond my wildest dreams actually much thanks

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

THEY SHOULD HAVE GIVEN YOU EXTRA CREDIT THE COWARD

[equalistmako]

every time i listen to “you’re a mean one mr. grinch” i can’t help but sit there and think “what did the grinch do to hurt you?” because dude just stands there for 2 minutes and 58 seconds and drags the grinch into the dirt

[damianmcgintleman]

he stole christmas, kayla! stop with your #notallgrinches propaganda!

[equalistmako]

you know what if someone told me i was a three-decker sauerkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce i’d probably be bitter enough to steal christmas too 

[prokopetz]

Interestingly, though The Grinch Who Stole Christmas is narrated by Boris Karloff, the big musical number is sung by the late Thurl Ravenscroft - an American voice actor better known as the voice of Tony the Tiger.

My headcanon is that the Grinch and Tony the Tiger had a bad breakup, and “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch” is the resulting breakup song.

[snickerslizard]

Did this really HAVE to be the first thing I see when I opened up Tumblr?

[prokopetz]

Yes.

[iguanamouth]

[star-spangled-jackass]

oh god theres art

[tediousfeline]

@altadude you know what must be done.

[altadude-deactivated20190418]

[lesbopsappho]

ive been avoiding reblogging this honestly but just. What the fuck. What the fuck tumblr

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

ok so i went ahead and made this into a fanfic actually

[solamedibble]

hello lili! it's your tolkien secret santa! i hope you've had a good day today (despite the, you know, circumstances). i'll probably drop in every few weeks to chat for a bit and get to know you a bit better so i can make you a nice little gift. :) and also peruse your blog a little (anonymously ofc!) can i ask what your username means? i'm reading it as sola-me-dibble but i'm not sure if that's right haha. anyway, hope you have a nice week and talk to you soon :)

I’ve had a pretty good day, so far! My username is actually the name of a character I played in a community theater show when I was like twelve lol and I spelled it wrong! Her name was Salome Dibble, she’s from the Phantom of the Opry (a spoof of Phantom of the Opera) and she was the Phantom’s little sister.

I hope that you’re having a great day!

[memewhore]

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

apparently this is a thing in Japan too, and it gets translated as “Mundane Halloween.” There are loads of photos online and they’re all so good?????

“Person going to work on a windy day"

“Woman who’s having her bang cut but the hairdresser is nowhere to be found"

"Zookeeper in charge of the pandas"

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

Hey did I ever tell you about my theory pacman is a hermaphrodite species? Ya know, like slugs

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

specifically, Ms. Pacmen are the default form of the species and the only ones capable of engaging in reproduction. what we call ‘pacmen’ are in fact just the sterile worker drones. you see more pacmen in games bc as drones it’s their job to collect the majority of food (dots) for the hive.

my evidence is what happens when you flip an image of Ms. Pacman upside down

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

like the flounder, Ms. Pacmen have two eyes on one side of their head. the eyes are asymmetrical but fully functional. Thus, given the unusual symmetry of the Pac Man body, we may observe an interesting phenomenon:

that’s right! what we commonly identify as a hair bow may equally be described as a bowtie. this is because, as the external genitalia of a hermaphrodite species, it is capable of both impregnating and being impregnated. The sterile drones naturally lack this appendage (whether they or born sterile or forcibly neutered by fellow hive members is a matter of scientific disagreement.)

this leads to my next hypothesis, the pacmen are the larval form of clowns.

[thedudefromdownunder]

Gaud why

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

all i ever sought from life was to cause disquietude 

[justsomeweirdbandkid]

I mean, there’s evidence?

But if this is true, what are the other growth stages?

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

this leads to my third point, that pacmen regularly cannibalize their young, aka the ‘dot’ larval form. it is this act of infanticide around which gameplay revolves

[cliffsunderwater]

*deep sigh*

Gaud, please tell me about how Pacmen are a parasite that turns its host intona clown. I don’t really want to know, but I think the alternative is worse…

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

A Queen Pacman that has reached full adult size may choose to take on a human host, depending on availability. it attaches itself to the host’s nose, which eventually withers and falls off, leaving the parasite to grow swollen and bright red as it fills with blood, and infecting the host with toxins that alter its physiology & neurology to that of the common Clown. 

Interestingly, the characteristic ‘clown honking’ comes from squeezing the parasite, which is typically mistaken for the Clown’s nose. Honking is the Pacman’s way of vocalizing displeasure at the sudden expulsion of blood (after which the Pacman immediately refills itself). It is said the host organism experience rare glimpses of lucidity in these moments, but this is unconfirmable. 

[biggest-gaudiest-poltergeist]

someone on ko-fi paid me real life money to bring back clown biology posts, so you get to live with the consequences!

[otherwindow]

my fav action series trope is when the characters go to an ordinary store and this shit happens fdgjhdfgk

[thatnoulguyorsomething]

Ok but imagine the opposite

You walk into a guns store

You show the claw-teared three-days-beard Chad Broski clerk some fancy card

He presses a button below the counter

And the gun racks open up to reveal a snack bar

[solamedibble]

I could not have predicted anything that’s happened this year since February, but Destiel becoming canon on day 4 of the presidential election is so out of left field i’m losing my mind

[omghotmemes]

[queen-calanthe-of-cintra-moved]

2020 really is being an experience(TM)

[fwizard]

no wait this is the most alive ive felt in months someone announce something else batshit lets keep this shit train going what im feeling is not serotonin but BOY is it getting my blood pumping

[tibby]

like as someone who has been on tumblr since 2010 destiel becoming canon was always going to be hilarious but the fact it happen while we’re waiting for election results, outshined putin resigning, and happened within a week of a 90 minute video coming out and reminding everyone what a failure the johnlock conspiracy is…like tonight truly is an amazing night for anyone out there with severe internet brain rot

[prokopetz]

Concept: fairy tale where the wicked step-parent (who is of course also some sort of warlock) transforms the princess into a swan, as one does, but rather than running off to mope around in a lake and be beautifully tragic, the princess decides to stick around the palace and cause problems on purpose.

[alarajrogers]

It is a beautiful day in the palace, and you are a horrible swan princess.
