she’s so lovely it’s like she’s a painting who made a wish to become a human to me

Primarch Road Trip Tier List

So, I was listening to Trapped in a Car from the show Crazy Ex Girlfriend. It gave me rare idea. Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pm_tYL7_Vdc

(Assuming they are DRIVING)

A tiers:

Alpharius, Vulkan, Leman, Horus, The Khan, Sanginius

B tiers:

Magnus, Fulgrim, Lion, Lorgar, G-Daddy

C tier:

Ferrus, Corvus (I'm sorry but he would SUCK as a road trip companion), Perty, and Dorn

D tier:

Morty, Konrad

Can't Go on A Road trip: Angron

Explanations for odd primarch placement:

Lorgar: True, he may be proselytize everyone you meet and try and make you play gospel music on the aux. Personally, he is like traveling with my OWN family.

Perty and Dorn: DEAD Silence during and going from the road trip. Tbh, I should've ranked them a bit higher, but although I personally prefer a hybrid... a dead car ride... its kinda awkward.

Poll Below

So, I saw someone say yesterday that "most people skim watch Chinese dramas", and that honestly blew my mind. If it has subtitles, I have to watch it and focus on it.

But then several thoughts occurred to me. You see, right now, my friend and I are watching The Longest Promise and The Screen Foxes. To us, The Longest Promise is painfully slow. We thought it was a little slower than most Chinese dramas, but most Chinese dramas are a little bit slow, and The Longest Promise actually feels much slower to us because we hate the main character and, like, half the story decisions so much, we thought. (Sorry, no offense to Longest Promise fans.) We thought that if we actually liked the main character and were invested in her story, the way the show dilly-dallied on every one of her scenes - having her say the same things over and over again, showing a dozen different angles on some magical moment in her life, having her express feelings about something that happened in a previous episode that she had made very clear at the time - would be enjoyable. Meanwhile, before we started The Screen Foxes, I read three different reviews that said the plot moved lightning-fast, bounced all over the place, and didn't make any sense. And ... none of that is true (so far). The plot moves at a normal pace. A thing happens, and then, something else happens as a consequence. There ARE several different interconnected story threads, and we do bounce back and forth between them, but it all makes sense. And last night, it hit me that maybe The Longest Promise is so slow because you're supposed to "skim watch" it. Certainly, if you dip in and out, you can follow the plot very easily. Scenes are long enough that it's hard to miss a whole one if you're checking back in frequently, repetitive enough that you can understand the point of the scene even if you miss three-quarters of it, and the same points are repeated in multiple scenes, so there are very few details you can miss even if you don't watch it too closely. (Plus, the plot is predictable enough that it's easy to follow.) Meanwhile, because The Screen Foxes doesn't dawdle on any points, if you're not actually sitting down and watching, it must seem chaotic and nonsensical. Why are they fighting this green monster now? Wasn't the show about painting a minute ago? The green monster is being used by a Taoist to body-guard a rich family. The Taoist is actually the one who made the family rich. Why? That's the mystery we need to find out. In the meantime, this family used its wealth to cheat in the painting contest from the last episode, so fighting their body guard is advancing that painting plotline too. But if you looked away from the screen during the two minutes where they were explaining all that, then yeah, it would be super confusing why this show just went from a painting contest to a demon fight.

If Chinese dramas are MEANT to be watched in the background, and that's the reason so many of them are so long and slow, then, honestly, my whole worldview has been changed.

So, TLDR: I have to know now: DO most people actually "skim watch" Chinese dramas????

How do you watch Chinese dramas?

I sit down and focus on them.

I do something else while watching, but I glance up enough to read everything.

I do something else while watching and I read enough of each scene to get it.

I fast forward/skip to the scenes I'm interested in and only watch those.

I put them on in the background and dont really watch, might even leave the room

I have only one specific C-drama that I'm obsessed with and watch it on repeat.

I am a native(-like) Chinese speaker and I sit down and watch.

I am a native(-like) Chinese speaker and it depends on the drama.

I am a native(-like) Chinese speaker and I have them on in the background.

I don't watch C-dramas but show me the results anyway.

#P.S. I will have more to say about The Screen Foxes when I finish it probably.#Also the fast-forward option is here because I saw someone say something about that in a post a few months ago.#Also having it on in the background would explain how my Chinese friend - who had a kid and a full-time job - could find time to watch mor #C-dramas than me. It just never crossed my mind because since I don't speak Chinese it would never occur to me to not sit down and focus on #the show.#poll #original #The Screen Foxes #The Longest Promise #The Untamed #Word of Honor #Till the End of the Moon #Love Between Fairy and Devil #Legend of Fei #The Oath of Love #<- Just some C-dramas I was thinking about as I typed all this.

okay. little things:

1. gerard did not change anything about his Look. he didn’t put on a persona. he went on stage as himself.

2. all the mcr next gen kids were on the balcony!! wearing their lil ear protection!! peeking over the railing! miles (i think) kept hamming it up and waving and flashing peace signs at the crowd below. lynz & the way parents were also up there watching the whole time and getting the whole experience and having a blast! aidan gallagher (number 5 from umbrella academy) was also up there, screwing around and being a goofball before the show started.

3. the crowd was fucking WILD in general like i can’t overstate that but they were especially wild for mikey. he got so much individual support, everybody chanting for him specifically multiple times.

4. gerard asked the crowd to see who had never been to an mcr show before. and it was honestly about 70% of the crowd, at least where i was near the front. he seemed rly surprised by this and then asked AGAIN just to make sure.

5. they did TWO ENCORES. ended on kids from yesterday the first time, then came back to do vampire money & helena, then came back one more time to do wttbp. the last thing we heard them sing was “we’ll carry on.” and then they all ran back onto the stage to take a picture with the crowd.

#i will add more if things come to me #this is just immediate details that stood out like. as someone At The Show. :’)#mcr #my chemical romance #izzy.txt 2019 #the mcr adventure #the show.

eeeeeeh is being human good

#molly.txt #text #not the concept the concept of being human sucks #the show.#i mean the show

tbh maybe it’s because i spent the first 3 songs with my face buried between the shoulder blades of the person in front of me but it seemed like it took gerard a couple mins to really get comfortable again and then as soon as he did (after summertime i think?) he was just BACK. fully. he looked different but he looked exactly the fucking same, yknow? the energy was preserved in fucking amber. it had been seven years and also it hadn’t been a single day. he looked as comfortable and in charge as he always had, and also he looked so fucking HAPPY. every time i was able to see him, in all the moments between songs, he was smiling. he was having so much fun. they all were. we all were. AAAAAAAAAA
