I’m back from a long hiatus (AKA I forgot my password and was too lazy to reset it for like a year) to announce that I am going as Ringo from Hard Days Night for Halloween and absolutely no one is going to get it

[waitwtfismylife]

i love queen. their discography ranges from:

six minute multitudes of unsolicited madness (like 4 of them)

an entire album of fantasy worldbuilding

a satire song about suicide that rhymes "wrists" with "tits"

you should kill youself ™ (my favorite)

the most heartbreaking, earth-shattering, Heaven-splitting love ballad you'll ever hear

the most boss ass bitch hard rock anthem ever written

shooting people who wrong you because SECOND AMENDMENT

girls with nice asses make the world go round

do you feel the weight of the cosmos pressing down on you? DO YOU?

it's ok to like the simple things in life, but you have to be PUNK WHILE YOU DO IT

gay ™

does anyone have that one painting with the ghosts standing in the water?

[cuuno-moved]

like theyre in the water and they’re staring off to the side and there’s something so very wrong about it and they’re bending over and trailing along like deer in the headlights but you can’t see what they’re staring at which might make it even scarier

[cuuno-moved]

we’re Queen fans, of course we’re gonna argue about whether it’s spelled Deacy or Deaky (IT’S DEACY)

we’re Queen fans, of course we sing the guitar solos

we’re Queen fans, of course we’ve attempted Roger’s falsettos

we’re Queen fans, of course we hate Paul Prenter

we’re Queen fans, of course we mourn the loss of Roger’s great sounding maracas

It has come to my attention that not everyone watched the Yellow Submarine movie three times a week when they were eight years old and, thus, does not have this scene burned into their memory. A few things of note:

1. Paul is so bad at acting. So bad it’s ridiculous. I cringe every time he speaks. He is trying way too hard and it does not work at all. It’s almost endearing how godawful he is.

2. George’s deadpan delivery of every line is so fucking funny. He’s not quite apathetic because you can tell he gets a kick out of saying it all so apathetically. Fantastic.

3. Ringo is trying and he does overdo it a little, but in comparison to Paul McFuckface he comes across as a virtuoso and gives a performance that is easily Oscar worthy. Talented king <3

4. Paul’s…posh? affronted gestures and reactions when Ringo is talking are endearingly annoying.

5. George’s bemused eye-roll at Paul’s Fixing a Hole bit.

6. Paul’s stupid little wink/laugh.

7. The SECOND John starts talking, they all immediately lose it. George purses his lips and looks anywhere besides John, Ringo distracts himself by making the most concerned expressions ever, and Paul looks directly at John, almost COMPLETELY breaks (you can see him swallow a laugh), and forces himself to go back into bad actor mode.

8. Every one of these photos would make a great reaction image.

9. All the languages :)

Anyway, Yellow Submarine is the only Beatles movie ever.
