That Crazy Ajumma

I am a multi-fandom blog, but my Tumblr is mostly Infinite and B.A.P. Between Kim Sunggyu and Yoo Youngjae, my life has become painfully wonderful....just kill me now. _____________________ My mantra is...You're never too old for Kpop to ruin you!

Saw a commercial that said “without the letters A B and O there’d be no you”

It was about blood types

As someone versed in fanfic tagging, that’s not the first thing I thought of

[sorryimnotthatkindofdoctor]

This needs to go with the deli sign that asked, “how do you top your sub?”.

This is now officially a thread for things that make fanficcers stop and blink
