Mom paypal’d me 8 dollars 35 cents and texted me about it so I’d have to interact with her. This is insulting.
#I did accept the money.#just. hm. having been stressed about bills and not being on their insurance after the end of this month#and then having her tell me she's sending money#and Im like ooh is it like. a significant sum? 100 dollars?#EIGHT. DOLLARS#okay???? like I'll take it. but?????? why#the mind game s this woman does#mom crimes#for the tag#personal

the other day i had a dream where i somehow managed to score an interview at betheny esda for a writer job on fallout 5 and, standing in front of a whiteboard (for some reason), i pointed to 'PROBLEM: PEOPLE HATE THE WRITING' and 'SOLUTION: I WILL MAKE PEOPLE HATE IT FOR WHOLE NEW REASONS' accompanied by a doodle of me giving a thumbs up and the dream ended when i was forcibly thrown out of the building

I don't think I've ever mentioned it, but a core part of my Edman design is a pair of the shittest supermarket-bought plastic sunglasses that he got for like. Eight dollars. He doesn't wear them literally *all* of the time but he definitely wears them whenever he can get away with it
#that's eight canadian dollars mind you#anyway I think he and Anne are in some cave somewhere in the fire rn and he's lost his sunglasses#and he's only holding it together because he would be embarrassed if Anne saw him lose it over a pair of shitty plastic sunglasses#it's so dumb but i think Edman and Mdawg can be a little pathetic and silly as a treat <3#woe.begone#w.bg

if your copy of the lightning thief isn’t held together with scotch tape and a dream, are you really a percy jackson fan?
#shoutout to the ‘I <3 this book!’ I drew over the tape on the front cover in sharpie and then covered in MORE tape#I think I was wasting time in study hall for most of that#the back cover is like half stained purple because the sharpie on my middle school binder rubbed off on it#EIGHT DOLLARS. I think I got this at Borders before they went out of business#www.percyjacksonbooks.com cannot still be a real website#god#pjo#rick riordan#percy jackson#percy jackon and the olympians#percy jackson and the olympians#my post#about to become a pjo girlie again for the first time in a decade.#those who don’t learn from history blah blah blah

how do I explain to people that if ten dollars is too expensive for a bottle of wine you should really just drink something else
#get an eight dollar bottle of vodka and get ten times as drunk then idk what to tell you#this isnt a classism thing it's just that if you go cheaper than ten dollars the wine won't taste good!!!!#you're better off getting something else at that point!!#bitts posts

Anyway, some days you’re in a meeting with the CEO of a multi-billion-dollar multinational company and you gotta tell him what no one else seems prepared to tell him: the name of the absolutely-not-bathroom-related product they plan to launch is evocative of “bowel movements, especially of the constipated variety” and you’re pretty sure that’s not actually a selling point.
(I was not, incidentally, present at this meeting to give such necessary advice, so we’ll see if they take it.)
#tara talks life and work and the hilarity therein#on the plus side he also did not seem fond of the name#but honestly#have you no one on staff with the humor of an eight-year-old boy?#have you no Google to see the search results of such a name?#why is no one paying me millions of dollars

I'm tired so I'm going to share a random Agent 24 headcanon of mine (there's Pearlina in the background/premise).
When the bouquet toss happens at Pearl and Marina's wedding, Captain 3 super jumps to be the one to catch it. They then realize, a bit embarrassed, that all eyes are on them as they just did that in front of everyone.
Pearl leans over to Eight and tells her, "Yo, now would be like, the funniest time to propose."
And so she does. The Captain says yes, but laments that, not planning to propose at someone else's wedding (because that is normally considered very very rude), they left their own ring for Eight at home.
Anyway, after that, Pearl and Marina announce they have some planes ready to fly the guests to a Shifty Station for a couple Turf War matches. Someone says that sounds excessively expensive, to which Pearl responds, "Eh, it was just a couple billion g."
#keep in mind splatoon currency is closer to yen than us dollars but billion is still a huge amount#some rambles at end of tags#splatoon#agent 3#captain 3#captain#eight#agent 8#agent 24#agent 38#agent 3 x agent 8#captain 3 x eight#pearl#marina#pearlina#pearl x marina#off the hook#post#longpost#longish post#abyssalshriek#thered be a brief thing about the captain worrying about the fact that eight proposed at someone elses wedding#only for them to find out the brides themselves suggested eight do it that way weeks ago#pearl and marina warn the captain that they better not break eights heart or else#the captain says if they break her heart they'd deserve the 'or else'#myagents
