The Violet Blaze boys decided to walk to the crowd at the @tmntaucompetition …

… it didn’t quite go how Tello planned.

遐想 對 現實 (daydream vs. reality)

I remember when those “Expectation vs. Reality” posts were quite the thing back in the day. Probably not as popular now but, just thought of this one from an old HK series from 2003.

Context: Main character (man in white Mao suit) is the Emperor Yongzheng from the Qing Dynasty who time travelled to 2003 Hong Kong. Hence, his way of talking is more formal Cantonese than the usual colloquial speech of other modern HK characters. And his views on women are on the chauvinistic side.

Ma voi Ve lo ricordate com'era prima di whatsapp? Prima delle spunte blu e del "online" prima del "sta scrivendo" e dell orario con l'ultimo accesso? Io si, io c'ero....

Pagavamo i messaggi 14 cent l'uno, e avevamo solo 140 caratteri a disposizione. Scrivevamo sgrammaticati e abbreviati per farci stare tutto, anche se alle volte bisognava decifrare tutti quei tvb e tv1kdb...

Si imparava l'ansia dell'attesa e spesso non si sapeva nemmeno se quel messaggio era poi effettivamente arrivato, che era anche la bugia perfetta quando non volevi rispondere "scusa, non l'ho ricevuto"

Ci facevamo gli squilli, che significavano un po' tutto... Dal "hei ciao" al "hei, ti penso" andava un po' a libera interpretazione...

C'erano le Christmas card o le Summer card, che ti regalavano 100 messaggi al giorno, e le catene "manda questo a 10 amici" e speravi sempre di non finirci in mezzo, però in fondo anche un po' ti piaceva esserci, li in mezzo.

Una generazione che sapeva aspettare, che sapeva condensare una lettera d'amore in un unico messaggio, una generazione di interpreti di squillini. Una generazione di romantici la nostra.... Forse l'ultima....

One of my favorite things is that when I tell people The Venture Bros is all about a horrible and bald middle-aged bald man that is far too pathetic and too horrible to possibly Babygirlify, the sort of people likely to Babygirlify horrible pathetic middle-aged bald men always take that as a challenge and think they’re capable of Babygirlifying him, and continue to think that they’ve won for like, the first three seasons. And then suddenly, about halfway through season 4, even they find their limit. And I win.

I tried to draw this fully on model and in line with how an actual scene from the show would look, but then I drew the background and I couldn’t help but give it some dumber lighting effects.

@daylightisfadingaway: *posting hundreds of texts about rugby*

Me: so lovely, I like them all 🥰

Meaning: If you have something to say, say it already!

Literal translation: Say it quickly if you have something to say, fart it out fast if you're full of gas!

Seeing @xiangqiankua 's 「有話快說，有屁快放」 post brings to mind for me, of 楊過 saying this line (more than a few times too, if I recall correctly) in 《神鵰俠侶》. Here's a version of the (almost) same line, for anyone curious to know how it sounds in Cantonese (sorry for the low volume):

In vernacular Cantonese:

🇭🇰🇲🇴 「你有說話快講，有屁快放！」

nei⁵ jau⁵ syut³ waa⁶ faai³ gong²，jau⁵ pei³ faai³ fong³

Standard Chinese (Mandarin) subtitles:

🀄 「有話就快說，有屁快放」

ㄧㄡˇ ㄏㄨㄚˋ ㄐㄧㄡˋ ㄎㄨㄞˋ ㄕㄨㄛ，ㄧㄡˇ ㄆㄧˋ ㄎㄨㄞˋ ㄈㄤˋ

yǒu huà jìu kuài shuō，yǒu pì kuài fàng

P.S.: It's usually enough to just scream 「有屁快放!」 at whichever unfortunate soul who has to bear your contempt and impatience! (笑)
