oh???? my god???!!!

apple bottom jeans — this is a reference to the apple that was eaten from the forbidden tree of Eden

boots with the fur — this references the way Adam and Eve had to clothe their nakedness once they had eaten from the Tree

the whole club was lookin’ at her — traditionally it is Eve’s fault for succumbing to the temptation, and most scholars blame her and future women for original sin

she hit the floor — this is a reference to the snake, who was cursed to crawl in the dust

next thing you know — the Lord immediately responded to kick them out of the Garden of Eden

shawty got low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low — this represents the way humanity fell from grace and gave in to temptation, and was repelled from the garden

When people try to say the Ineffable Fandom is overthinking, dissecting, and discussing too much, I want to point out that Neil and the show runners purposefully gave us details intended to draw us in. They hid messages in the set and props. They created dialogue intended to prompt discourse. This is such a deep, multifaceted show and it would be a disservice to the creators NOT to fall in and splash a while.

Everyones got these headcanons about why aziraphale says "i forgive you," and why crowley said "dont bother."

I think theyre all right. Its a culmination of everything theyve been through that they cant put into words because communication is exactly what theyre struggling with. I think its all they could think to say.

Hiya! :). Mmm. What I would love is Neil's take on it :D<3.

With all the details hidden in this show it should awe and amaze us that there were only a few years between seasons 1 & 2 (and a whole ass pandemic).

I cannot even imagine the complexity of Neildad's brain. It's taken us months to find these things and he just came up with them and hid them in plain sight?!

The puns are never ending : Aziraphale's miraculous "visable" bullet.

Aside from this closeup diagram of how to perform the bullet catch being objectively hilarious, it's also got a pretty fascinating *spelling mistake*.

If you look closely at the part of the pamphlet in red, you'll see that the bullet should be hidden in the mouth where it won't be visable. Not "not visible". Not visable. Seems innocuous enough right? But of course, the layers are never ending.

"Visable" is actually a Middle English word, *not* a modern English one. The last time it was used was before the printing press was invented, so pretty old. Here's a little background :

What's really fascinating though, is that just like the expression "dark horse", the word has two meanings : one is "Capable of good judgement, prudent" the other is "Tractable and docile".

There are also only two examples of the word in context that I can find, and they really should be sending you into orbit :

The first one is actually from Henry Lovelich's translation of the French epic poem "The Romance of Merlin" also known as the first English treatment of the Arthurian legends. It's modernized as "He was a worthy knight, valiant and visable in every fight." Which uses the "good judgment" meaning and sounds... a lot like Aziraphale in his role of guardian and protector.

Why do we care? They are standing literally in front of Excalibur, Arthur's sword.

The other one is from "Ipomadon", another middle English epic poem about a hidden identity romance between a beautiful but proud heiress, and her dark knight in disguise. "She was... visable and virtuous, meak and mild, and marvellous." Which clearly uses the "tractable and docile" meaning, but also... kinda sounds like Aziraphale in his damsel in his distress mode, which:

Ahahahah fuck off. But wait, there's more!

I originally twigged to this error because if you, like me, also happen to speak the language of la plume de ma tante, you know there's a reason why the uses happen in epic poems that originated in France: it's a loan word from old French, and still exists today in modern French, but it doesn't mean tractable and docile...

For the non-french speaking among you, it's a derivation of the verb "viser" :

Verb 1 To aim 1.To aim, to carefully direct one's gaze or a weapon towards a goal to throw something at it.

And so, if you happen to be, oh I don't know, a demon and have been alive for thousands of years and can definitely speak all the languages on earth and happen to have participated in the Arthurian age in England, when you read that pamphlet really carefully because someone is making you do a crazy stunt and there's a miracle blocker on, you could *conceivably* have read the instructions as:

"IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT YOU LOVE, DO NOT SHOOT AZIRAPHALE IN THE FACE." ________________________________________________________ Thanks to @thebluestgreen and @embracing-the-ineffable as always.

I'd forgotten they tried to beat the boys awake

Usopp is low-key the MVP of Thriller Bark

In an arc full of great gags, this is perhaps the greatest. I'm not sure I could choose between this and Luffy pushing a zombie into its own grave

I haven't seen many people talk about the fact how Vergilesque Urizen's true form can appear at certain angles.

Look at that! That's a purely demonic Vergil right there. They even share same stink eye!

Sure, sure you got the whole deal of Urizen pulling blue colour wise, obviously, but I'd like to present another very interesting detail. So here's Vergil's fabulous tail in his SDT form, coming right out from between his shoulder blades:

And here's a certain attack Urizen uses that annoys the shit out of people:

Guess where that bad boy is popping up from:

That's right! From between the shoulder blades, looking all too familiar to certain magnificent tail. Yes, Vergil's tail is probably a remnant that's stuck around from his time as Urizen.

Colin drempt of Penelope in nothing but her nightwear. No jewels. No fancy hair. No adornments of any kind. Just her. He drempt of her in her comfy clothes and that's just so lover boy of him...

This is the most stripped down he's ever "seen" her. Comparable (at this point) only to their first kiss, and even then, she's dolled up, though that may have been the first time he's seen her hair all down and loose...

His subconscious could have conjured up an exact replica image from their kiss the night before for this dream, but instead he pictured her in a much more romanticized way, and I love that for us...

This boy is so soft and gone for his bestie. I mean, the main narrative of his wet dream was them confessing their feelings for each other and then making out?! Like!?
