You when they put subtitles on videos in social media, and it's a great video, but there are so many misspelled words you just can't enjoy it?

Just as an example:

A woman confronts a man in what's supposed to be a very emotionally charged moment, but the subtitles read, "I want to ripe you lim from lim! Your a terible person and I hayte ewe!"

....yeah. I want to rip my hair out every time.

Welcome my fruity friends to my showcase of my new concept…

[drum rolls]

ANNOYING ORANGE ANIMATED CATASTROPHE!

Thanks to all of my friends who helped with some general ideas {and @sugarlol-13 for giving me the motivation to make me post it even if it was on accident-} and those around me who are relatively open minded with new ideas, I have finally been able to showcase my AU! {or Alternate universe for those unaware of the meaning}

Q: What is the plot?

A: the plot is as follows…

The show follows the new fruit in the kitchen; Orange; and his fruity friends as they adventure though the household. Things quickly go weary as they are roped into an organization called the council.

Q: who are the main characters?

A: the cast mainly consist of 6 characters. That being of orange, pear, little apple, greatfruit, and passion fruit. Passion fruit will be absent in the beginning, but will be brought in later in the story.

Q: what type of genere would you put this?

A: I would probably say action-adventure comedy. There will be a lot more action in this au then in the og series

Q: what are the council?

A: you’ll figure them out in due time. But for now they are just leaders in each section of the rooms. The parents room, the children’s room, and even the kitchen has a council. The only area that would not have one would be the living room as it’s a free for all.

Q: how would you show the story? Though comics, animation, or ask blogs?

A: unsure at the current moment. I want to make it an animation series as some of the humor comes from the action, but I might make it a comic if the animatics do not go well.

Any more questions? Please don’t be afraid to ask! And thanks to my friend @zilllow for helping me with the creation production!

Be prepared with more post about this in the future

NEW CHIKISS ALBUM COMES OUT 6.12.

Glad to announce the premier of my new album after long break.

"The enigmatic and expressive Galina Ozeran aka Chikiss breaks a three-year silence with Between Time and Laziness, a brand-new LP of dramatic and dreamlike synthpop perfectly suited to Hamburg's unfaltering Bureau B. Written in St. Petersburg, Berlin, and Athens, and co-produced by Finnish multi-instrumentalist Jaakko Eino Kalevi, the album renders the existential, psychological, and philosophical in song form. Exploring motivation and self-doubt, the long shadow of the Soviet Union, and collective empathy with a cinematic air, Chikiss weighs darkness and light, landing on the side of hope in her most considered and polished vocal album to date."

Bureau B, 2024

Ahem, "Jamaicans coined tbe term 'grapefruit' because the fruit grew in bunches like grapes"

Alternatively, "....early 19th c. Ciardi proposes another theory: one of the pummelo's botanical names is Citrus grandis, meaning 'great citrus [fruit]', due to the size of its fruit. A new pummel variety might first have been called a 'greatfruit'...."

Now some accounts say the name comes from its taste, but according to the Wikipedia article that name (grapefruit) was originally given to a different yet similar Jamaican citrus. "In 1814, naturalist John Lunan published the term grapefruit to describe a similar Jamaican citrus plant"

However the linked source cites the reason for John Lunan naming it grapefruit being the way it grows.

In the 5 minute deep dive I've done there doesn't seem to be a definitive source for the taste being the origin of the name, and the way it grows seems to be the most likely

The person who discovered ‘grapefruit’ must have never tasted a grape before.

[akumanoken]

Is Hisoka's last name really "fruit"??? I just noticed that xD

I literally wrote that as his name and then later on cracked up... because Hisoka means secretly.  So he’s secretly fruit.... pffft

[cybernetic-oreos]

MAN there were some weird directions those shoulder pads went in before I figured out the right one.

Also yeah lets just stick a whole greatfruit on her head.

[monochromemedic]

Nnaaa not dumb, I remember from one of Amy's past instagram story's. Once she was asking for recipes for grapefruit because there were a bunch of them ripening at the same. (So I'd say Amy and Mark own a greatfruit tree)

i just see a yellow round thing and just assume ‘yes lemon’ look i know like 5 fruits that’d be nice to have like a little tree that grows fruit

059. List several phrases your character is fond of uttering. Where did they pick them up?

Oh boy, heh. Jix has rather unique way of speaking. Some of it is because English is not his first language. Some is because he thinks he knows better words for things. And some is just because he’s a high energy little guy. Sometimes things that are simpler to him or easier for him to understand are quite roundabout and convoluted to humans.

Jix tends to call things what they are, as far it makes sense to him. For example, he called bees “fuzz buzzies.” Bees are fuzzy, and they buzz. Makes sense to him. Now, he knows the English word is “bee,” but if you ask him why he doesn’t use it, he’d tell you it’s because “bee” doesn’t tell you anything, whereas “fuzz buzzy” does. However, what does he call butterflies and dragonflies? “Fancy bees.” Why? because they’re like bees, only fancier. They’re bigger and prettier than bees but they still fly. Why doesn’t he call them “fancy fuzz buzzies?” Who knows, haha. Like I said, it makes sense to him. Tiny bugs are called “small crawlies.” Slugs and snails are called “slimey crawlies.” You get the idea.

He does the same thing with animals as he does with insects, except sometimes it makes even less sense, haha. Birds are “birdy-birds.” The only reason for that is he thinks the word bird is fun to say so he repeats it, heh. You would then think that bats would be “fuzzy birds,” right? Nope. “Furry flappies.” Because… they’re furry… and they flap. Now… birds flap too, but he doesn’t mention that. *sigh* Animals that are relatively small, like mice and rabbits and squirrels and even up to cats and small dogs are called “small furries,” whereas larger animals like deer, bear, and larger dogs and wolves are called “big furries.” Snakes are called “slitheries.” Lizards are called “scalies” or “spikey scalies.”

Likewise, Jix doesn’t use the word “star,” because he doesn’t get what that means. What the heck is a star? Heh. What are they to him? “Faraway twinklies.” Mushrooms are sometimes called “mushy-rooms,” but if they have big caps on them and Jix can play around wearing them on his head, they’re called “‘shroom hats.”

One of the things he says most often is “tasty littles.” This is what Jix calls berries or small fruits. Again, the reason he does this is because “berries” tells him nothing about what he’s describing. (Side note, he says “bewwies,” which is just adorable.) But yeah, Jix is just like what the heck is a berry? They’re little. They’re tasty. So call them tasty littles. That’s the explanation he’ll give to anyone who asks. Now… what happens when you have larger fruits? They’re not little anymore, right? They’re big, compared to him. So he called them “tasty bigs” or something, right? Nope! “Tasty big-littles.” Because they’re just like the littles… only big. *facepalm* It makes sense to Jix. XD

In fact, Jix butchers the name of nearly every fruit he comes across. Of the ones he uses the term “littles” for, here’s a list of a few: strawlittles, bluelittles, blacklittles, hucklelittles, cherry-littles, grapey-littles, pummy-littles (the little seeds inside pomegranates), and rasplittles. And then there are some big-littles: orange big-littles, lemony big-littles, limey big-littles, plummy big-littles, apple big-littles, and piney-apple big-littles. And then there are the fruits he just completely butchers in other ways because he can, haha: peachies, kee-wees, greatfruits, pummykins (pumpkins), pummy-granates (pomegranates), mah-may-toes (tomatoes), ba-na-na-nas (yes, there’s an extra “na”), watery-melons, coco-nutty-nuts, and figgies.

Something else Jix does is repeat words. You’ll often hear him saying “thank-thank,” “yes-yes,” “no-no,” or “what-what.” he does that just because he’s a high energy little dude who can’t contain himself. Also, the words “yes” and “no” seem very short to him, so he repeats them to make sure people heard him.

If there is an “i” or “o” in the middle of a word, Jix will often turn it into a “y.” Why he does this is a mystery, but I think it has to do with what types of syllables are easier for him to pronounce, and so he changes some words to fit that. So delicate is “delly-cate,” apologize is “apolly-gize,” and impossible is “impossy-ble.” Now sometimes he doesn’t change the pronunciation of something but then he has to slow it down and sound it out by syllable to get it right, so you’ll see me write certain words in his dialogue with dashes whenever he’s doing this. Positivity is “pos-i-ti-vi-ty,” and possibility is “poss-i-bi-li-ty.”

Jix will also mess up plurals and word types. For example, instead of saying he’s happy or that he’s filled with happiness, he’ll say he has “all the happies,” turning happy from an adjective into a noun and then making it plural on top of that. Sometimes instead of saying “cry” or “crying,” or “sing” or “singing,” he’ll say “doing the cries” or “doing the singings,” turning them from verbs into nouns.

Finally... something you’ll hear Jix say a lot is “Waaaaahhhhhhh!” XD This is just an exclamation usually of either wonder or awe or maybe surprise. If it’s in all caps he might be scared, heh. Think of it like “wow” or “woah” or “holy crap,” haha. That’s about what it means.

Okay I think that’s enough for now, heh. I’ve spent a lot of time developing Jix’s own personal “language” as you can tell. XD

[wetwareproblem]

I object to your claim that grapefruit is unspeakably horrible. You should speak how horrible it is more. So that none are betrayed by the ease of calling it "greatfruit" again.

I tried to think of a metaphor and discarded like five of them because I don’t want to put those images in your heads or make you ask how I could possibly know what that tastes like.
