i’ve pretty much never been less surprised by anything

[i-am-just-a-ham]

So I’m in theatre class

We’re working on Shakespeare scenes for competition

A couple of freshmen boys are doing a scene that mentions a sword

The teacher is trying to tell them that they do not need to have a prop sword

They are not understanding

So young

So naive

“90% of the time” she says

“When Shakespeare says ‘sword,’ he’s not talking about a metal sword”

They are still not understanding

The rest of the class understands

We know what we are witnessing

The destruction of innocence

They are so new to the ways and language of the bard

Cinnamon rolls

Pure

Unaffected by theatre kids

Untouched by the horrors of the world

They still do not understand

The teacher does not know what else to do

She knows they cannot go to competition wielding an actual prop sword

She knows they will eventually learn

The class knows this too

We are dying to know what she will say next

She opens her mouth

We are on the edge of our seats

She yells

“LETS TALK ABOUT PENISES!”

Whoop.

There it is

The secret is out

Shakespeare makes dick jokes

Theatre teachers sometimes say things other teachers don’t

It is a shock to their system

In their minds, the kill bill siren

Their world has turned upside down

We can see it in their face

We lose it

We are accustomed to this

We have heard worse

But seeing their faces

It is too much

At this moment

The door opens

A sophomore enters

This is his first theatre class

All he heard was

“Let’s talk about penises”

He shouts out in a confused horror

The cycle is never ending

This came to me after living in a town for 5 years where if you aren’t married and having kids, everyone hates you.

Where is the video with the dude running as if he’s about to do the sickest skateboard trick, but then he just keeps running

high notes

[fly-swift-fallcon]

What the fuck kind of time signature is that

[noty0urprincess]

A fake one, for a very bad pun.

[fly-swift-fallcon]

Oh shit. I completely missed that joke. I didnt understand. I just saw high notes and then the key signature and wow it makes so much sense now

[tinyoperadiva-deactivated-6-2-1]

I’m too much of a musician. I didn’t get it either I just kind of freaked at the fucking time signature and saw high notes •~• good god

[pianistical]

I just spent two minutes staring at this and not getting it. And counting the ledger lines. My initial reaction was basically “who wrote this, Satan?” and “what instrument is this written for?” before I realized

Republican voters were asked if they supported bombing “Agrabah,” a fictional city from Aladdin. 30% said yes. Combined with 57% of respondents who were unsure, 87% of Republicans think bombing Aladdin’s hometown is, at the very least, a possibility.

Literally my favorite thing about a new Star Wars is the original trilogy getting the updated meme treatment it deserves.

me: *googles how to mash potatoes*

some food blogger: My childhood home was full of wind and light. On a brisk Autumn evening, it often felt as if the outside was in. My younger sister, my mother, our favourite cousin, our dog, our other dog, our dog’s sister, and I would sit on the floor in the living room for hours, lit only by the moon and candlelight

me: *scrolls for several minutes*

some food blogger: It was at that moment, with my tiny hands clasped tightly around a mason jar filled with fireflies, that I realised the true value of family. My dog and my dog’s sister came and sat quietly at my feet. We stared up at the sky together, and I felt truly connected to both the Earth at my feet and the ancestors who shared the blood that ran through them, for the first time realising that

me: *scrolls for several minutes*

some food blogger: and when we finally made it home, our cheeks flushed with laughter and cold, there were warm mashed potatoes waiting for us. I will always remember their fluffiness, perfectly mirroring the light feeling I carried with me for the entire next week. This is my favourite cousin’s recipe from that very day, modified slightly to not be fucking awful. Boil an potato and smush it up with fork and botter. NOT A RAW, Salt, pepepr. In it
