Hiddeous outfit
I have been trying for several days to make a post about how, while I love the 2017 DuckTales reboot, having explored some related media I've come to the conclusion that they downplayed quite a lot of Scrooge's negative and weird personality traits, and yeah yeah yeah I understand that in today's media landscape it's very difficult to have a character who objectively sucks in a lot of ways and never really grows out of them or gets better because the ways in which he sucks are a cornerstone of who he is as a person.
The post never materializes though, because I always come back to a certain sticking point, which is that the show tries really, really hard to convince me that stealing cocktail weenies at a party is, like, weird, and I'm like, okay. Except everyone does that. That is so normal. Yeah, if you're a trillionaire doing it to save money, that's kinda funny. And of course it's over-exaggerated, because it's a cartoon, but like, the thing itself? One of the most normal things he does in the whole show. It's almost too normal.
But the thing is, the scene seems so completely and unwaveringly committed to the core joke being that this is weird behavior that I have started to wonder if I'm having a pelican-fucking moment. Does everyone do that? Or am I the weird one here? Now I realize I'm asking Tumblr to judge the weirdness of my behavior here but I'm a little bit afraid of having this conversation in real life now. Yes I'm aware you can buy cocktail weenies from the grocery store and they're not that expensive but they taste better if you steal them okay. To be clear the level of stealing I'm talking about is I bring ziplock baggies but never more than 2 because there are other people there who also want cocktail weenies, I'm not an animal, and because I know someone's going to ask no I do not have plastic lined pockets that I fill with dip, that's the cartoonish exaggeration I was talking about.
Is it normal to steal cocktail weenies at parties?
Yes
No
You get no nuance option this is an easy question
These results are... illuminating. Not sure of what, but definitely something
Well to be honest I guess this goes full circle and loops back around to my original point. If you water down a negative character trait too much, eventually you hit a point where people start to disagree about whether or not the trait is actually negative. In these cases, watering the trait down can be a bigger risk than sticking to it, and with less reward.
The weenies thing is whatever, can we go back to the bit where "pelican-fucking moment" is apparently part of your standard vocabulary?
It's a standard Tumblrism! Although I couldn't find the original post, it might have been a stork. It's for when you think something is super obvious but it turns out you're the weird one. And based on the poll results so far this does not qualify
I think "pelican-fucking moment" may be a kind of pelican-fucking moment.
Do you know what I'm talking about when I say "pelican-fucking moment"?
Yes
No
listen I ain't accusing nobody of stealing the blade of winds, I'm just saying it's weird how all of a sudden your cousin Ronnie's moped'll do 140 miles per hour uphill

OC commission for my friend Kayla of her pathfinder girl!
Commission Info
Alt text here describes it as 'based on one of those lizards with a frill around its neck.'
fun trivia! Those are called 'frill-neck lizards.'
That is fun trivia thank you
Couple + Sibling/relative third wheel is honestly an S-tier trio dynamic and I wish we saw more of this in media.
"You are my soulmate. We are forged together by battle and tears and love. Also my brother's coming along."
"Yo."
Bonus points if the non-related half of the couple is just as committed to keeping the third wheel around as the related half.
"Isn't it weird that your brother in law is always hanging around?"
"You've got a problem with Andrew?"
the thing about being a Tech Person™ is the universe takes it as a challenge. oh you can handle normal problems easily? take some Extremely Not Normal ones. my friend just told me my outgoing voicemail message is in Italian for no apparent reason

every time you make art of any kind, a stat that is not visible to the player goes up. also, this is the most important stat in the game
does singing in the shower count as art
does a strong as fuck ice mummy have ice powers
does writing fanfiction count as art
don't make me say the mummy thing again
did a bit of driving through the state of georgia today and wound up driving through a small town that i later discovered was called newborn, which is an odd name but doesn’t technically have anything wrong with it, except for the fact that i nearly gave myself whiplash doing a double-take at a building sign advertising NEWBORN TAXIDERMY
