I found this thing I like... thought I'd share it.

So I post random stuff I find funny/interesting/awesome. Every once in a while people agree with me, even!

Male writers writing female characters:

“Cassandra woke up to the rays of the sun streaming through the slats on her blinds, cascading over her naked chest. She stretched, her breasts lifting with her arms as she greeted the sun. She rolled out of bed and put on a shirt, her nipples prominently showing through the thin fabric. She breasted boobily to the stairs, and titted downwards.”

‘ She breasted boobily to the stairs, and titted downwards’ is the greatest fucking sentence I have ever read.

THE ORIGINAL??

I’m convinced that inside Guillermo Del Toro’s creative soul is a teenage girl writing in her room on her bed with one of those pens with a pink sparkly pompon on the end of it, kicking her feet in the air and giggling.

Spurious Latin plurals are great fun if you're a specific flavour of nerd, but improperly constructed verb tenses are a game anyone can play. The past tense of "screenshot" is "screenshat".

[wicker-and-scrap]

In an argument about D&D rules, I proposed that the past tense of "crit" is "crat". This was judged to be 'disgusting'.

thank you to this post for making me look up irregular verbs because i discovered a word i never even realized was a verb: wit, as in the phrase "to wit," which before this moment i absolutely thought was some odd metaphorical construct like "to[ward] wit (n.)" and not just . an infinitive?

wikipedia discusses it like we're all perfectly aware that wit is a unique english verb. it reads like a native english speaker is supposed to read this and go "huh, i guess wit is pretty weird, isn't it?" and not "i have never heard this word in my life":

i wot?? i did not wit this ("wit" means "know," which ig makes sense)

...also, what is the third person conjugation if it doesn't have an -s?

you wost??? you wistest?????

every other english verb needs to pick up the slack, no one is doing it like wit, we need some more of these

[prokopetz]

The set phrase "to wit" isn't the only place this verb survives in modern English, mind; it's also fossilised in adjective "unwitting".

(As for the past tense, literally the only place I've ever heard it is in a couple of traditional ballads whose lyrics come to us via Middle English, which contain the phrase "[to go] where no-one wist" – which is of course a fancy way of saying "where the fuck did they go?")

[therottenkingsreckoning]

Could it be the origin of "wistful" or am I wrong?

[prokopetz]

Oddly, no; "wistful" apparently descends from the unrelated Middle English "whist", meaning "silence". (In its older usage, the term suggests silent contemplation; the modern connotation of longing or yearning is possibly influenced by confusion with "wishful".)

I love when there's a convergent evolution in english. it's such a freaking mess that sometimes it's beautiful.

The other night husband and I were watching a documentary about the yeti where they were doing DNA analysis of samples of supposed yeti fur, and every one of them came back as bears.

Anyway, the next night we watched a thing about some pig man who is supposed to live in Vermont. People said it had claws and a pig nose but walked upright like a man. Now, I happen to know that sideshows used to shave bears and present them as pig men. So every piece of evidence they gave of this monster sounds to me like a bear with mange.

So now the running joke in our house is that everything is bears. Aliens? Bears. Loch Ness monster? Bear. Every cryptozoological mystery is just a very crafty bear.

Bears. They’re everywhere. Be wary. Anyone or anything could be a bear.

As the OP of this post, I’m going to threaten that if this gets to one million notes by the 10 year anniversary on 1 June 2026, one year from today, I will get a lower back tattoo of the loch ness bear monster.
