every day I'm reminded more and more of that 'joke' where gadget likers are outfitting their houses with every single new flashing trinket that comes out, while tech ppl keep a shotgun next to their printer in case it starts making unfamiliar noises

or the one where two ppl are having coffee in the kitchen, someone says a joke, the first person laughs, the second person laughs, the toaster laughs and they shoot the toaster

What still puzzles me is why people scold Aziraphale (among other things) for interrupting Crowley's speech to tell him about the Metatron's offer. I mean imagine your boyfriend just had a chinwag with the second in command of the Universe. Don't you want to hear what they were talking about? Why weren't you near the door jumping on your tiptoes and gnawing at your fingers while you waited for him to return, anyway? Why didn't you snatch him by lapels the moment he reentered the bookshop and ask him yourself what was going on, ffs? Oh no, AzIrAfEL iNtErRuPtEd ThE cOnFeSsIoN, tHe AuDaCiTy

Dear @staff, I post *ONE* thirst trap and you flag that? Oh but I can reblog as many black and white porn gifs I want and NOBODY bats an eye. My dick isn’t even out!! It’s tasteful!!

Low-key wish people stopped leaving one star reviews on books for the sin of them having an open spine.

First, those are brilliant.

Second, how do I figure out if the reviews going "the book is of terrible quality and arrived horribly damaged" mean it, when they provide no photos, considering that their like-minded neighbors, which do have photos attached, are showing perfectly fine books with open spines 😭

Tights

Guys why is it that nobody anywhere makes and sells comfy knit sweater tights in colors that are in pretty jewel colors and not beige, white, black, or gray and also in not child sizes??

This fashion economy is really cramping my twee revival/bright academia style.

The pain of trying to actually listen to an audiobook (as opposed to just having it on for ambient noise), when the performer is so invested in PERFORMING their ass off that they pay zero attention to whatever is going on in the text they are reading or the meaning of the words even.

"I!!!!! am going. OUT to. buy SOME! brEAd".

First we get a person A scolding a person B for not being up to some idealized picture of "B", which A has in their head.

Then A does some shitty (i.e. murderous) things to a person C, because A doesn't like that B and C are falling in love with each other.

When B and C fall apart and B is struggling, A pushes their idealized picture of "B" on them again saying they wish B were dead rather than not being up to that picture. Oh, and the best part - A claims that they do all this because A loves B and knows them better than anyone.

A lot of shit comes and goes as B spirals to the bottom and takes people around them with them. B and C reunite.

And now we see how C starts looking up to A and seeking their approval. I mean what the heck?! What are you doing?! Why?! Is this the route the story goes? Really? Or are we meant to believe that A is fundamentally transformed (into a seagull) now?
