In the Dead Waste & Middle of the Night

fuck personality types u wanna know a lot about a person? present them w a plate of brownies and see if they take a corner, side, or middle piece

[wrathbite-deactivated20171105]

tag this with the type of brownie piece you would take

[couriers-mile]

This post claims this metric can tell you a lot but doesn’t offer any insight on decoding people’s choices so allow me to take a crack at it:

Corner piece: Bitter and tired but cute, likes to curl up in a blanket burrito and marathon weird documentaries and true crime at three in the morning because executive dysfunction won the fight against going to bed on time for the morning shift, probably a top. Honestly very sweet under layers of cynicism.

Side piece: Has kinks weird enough it bears mentioning as like a personality feature, gets excited to solve a math problem, may be verse, knows weird shit about animals and/or bugs in particular and will tell you when you didn’t ask, tries to swim like a mermaid in the public pool. Verse.

Middle piece: First off, a b o t t o m, spoiled rotten, either has way too much energy or is depressed with no middle gears, externally much more chipper than the Corner Piece people but inside absolute chaotic evil. Never to be trusted with anything.

Bonus options

No preference: Pure chaos, no impulse control, has at least 3 hyperfixations and is dying to infodump, has lots of people they talk to but not sure if friends??? Piles 60 tasks their plate and accomplishes 0 by the deadline. Also a bottom.

More concerned with eating brownies in systematic order: So fucking tired of everything, trying to make sense of a chaotic world, steps over cracks and gaps in sidewalks, gives so much side-eye their face got stuck that way. Verse.

I never wondered. I read. Dark signs that crawled toward the edge of the page. It took me years to grow a heart from paper and glue. All I had was a flashlight, bright as the moon, a white hole blazing beneath the sheets.

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.

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

[prokopetz]

Yes.
