Current fandom pet peeve is the widespread misconception and use of the word deadpan. It's not a tone of voice; it's a style of delivery used for humor; it's a type of joke. Anyway, driving me nuts how many authors are using deadpan when they actually mean flat or nonplussed.
#fandom I'm judging you#afaik it refers to#flintlock guns which have priming pans#a small amount of fine gunpowder#in the flash pan#then ignites the main charge#do you get a small sizzle pop#before the loud bag#if you forget the primer#the pan is dead#do you're waiting for the bang#which doesn't come#deadpan delivery is when you#make an absurd comment#sound so sincere#that there's a delay#before your audience#realizes it's a joke

No thoughts, head empty, just Mitsuba expressing one of the most basic human desires. No matter how many times people try to tell me that his feelings are manufactured or that he’s inherently evil, I will never buy it nor will it ever be true within a canon context. Cool concept for an au I guess but canon Mitsuba is extremely emotional and empathetic and is one of the more redeemable ones in a series full of morally gray characters. Him being sassy and struggling with dark thoughts does not make him a bad person idk what some fans are on about
#i say “one of” because there is obviously more to the human experience than falling in love and those who can’t or don’t want to are#perfectly valid#one time a person came into my comment section saying Mit2uba can’t feel real emotions as though it were a canon fact#which is so absurd LMAO he is arguably the most emotional character#mitsuba they could never make me hate you#i’ve also seen ppl use the “he’s a supernatural so he’s evil” take to discredit the only canon mlm relationship in the series#it’s so preppy in here#toilet bound hanako kun#tbhk#jibaku shounen hanako kun#jshk#sousuke mitsuba#mitsukou

Watching House, you just have to accept that sometimes the writers will make him act gross and slightly out of character.
1; because of the times, and 2; likely because the writers have their own weird fetish about it 🙄🙄
#specifically the episodes of him interacting with a teenage girl#house has been shown that he very specifically thinks that teenagers are stupid and he’s not attracted to them#he ALWAYS opts for the older woman; around his age#even with cameron; he didn’t go for her#so WHY are there random af episodes where suddenly this teenager who is flirting with him is soooo hot and tempting#they even use ‘jailbait’ a lot 🙄🙄🤢#almost everything he does is out of a place of sarcasm or not taking anything seriously; or even as a political/social commentary#the intersex episode specifically is less him being weird and more a social commentary and explicitly pointing out how absurd & weird it is#so WHY the FUCK did they suddenly write him like *that*#like; he’s not just flattered. I know that’s a common argument.#they make it clear that house finds her attractive; and I think that’s so gross!#when they make him ironic and sassy and sarcastic about it; that’s great!#I love his sassy personality; that he always has this unserious persona; a lot of what he says is ironic#or trying to make some sort of social statement#don’t take my Dr house away from me 😡 s3 ep 3&4 NOT MY DR HOUSE!#house writers for specifically those episodes when I get you!!!#ITS ALSO THE FACT THE SHOW HAS SO MUCH SOCIAL COMMENTARY about how normal it is in society (at the time) about ‘jailbait’#and casual gross comments about minors; there’s episodes where house specifically makes a point of saying shit just to show how absurd it is#sarcastic commentary; mind you#AND THEN they turn around and do the exact gross shit they were just making a commentary about?#house writers WHEN I FIND YOU… 🫵🫵🫵🫵#sorry I have lots of thoughts about this 😡😡#see; house is an asshole. but he’s a lovable asshole. he’s literally meant to be still likable at the end of the day#house#dr house#Greg house#Gregory house#house md

need a hardened respectful fujo to sit down with james mcavoy and discuss cherik with him insteada this peanut gallery cause if i have to hear people laugh about a gay ship one more time i just might eat rocks
#xmen#cherik#snap chats#get him OUT OF THERE PLEASE#im glad he still provided like. GENUINE quick thoughts and highlighted their love and vulnerability and them 'bridging a gap'#i WILL be taking his comment on them cuddling and running to my tablet with it later but thats not the point#there's a point that maybe just the absurdity of the thought of Evil Villain Magneto and Good Guy Professor X being in love is the comedy#i however will not be trusting like that. the REALNESS of it all IS Evil Villain Magneto and Good Guy Professor X being in love#DESPITE their rivalry and differences because in the end they still want the same thing and still love each other#the vulnerability these men can find within each other despite feeling so isolated from the world around them...#guys theyre making me sick amidst my rant i gotta stop thinking about them before i go off#point is if they just let james lock in for like half an hour id trust him to elaborate on that well#he's already done so a bit in other interviews please just let him submit a thesis vlaekjvkaelj#he been the headrunner of cherik since first class dropped id trust his thoughts with my life really#ok bye im gonna cope witht e fact i got class in like two hours#at least speak no evil comes out tomorrow ..... might watch it with my family ..... lol ....

Oh how i love to post really mean comments on youtube but then delete them because then i wont stop thinking about it and getting so anxious about it. Anyways I REALLY FUCKING HATE YOU ROBERT SAPOLSKI. Shuddup ur stupid man who happened to get degrees and be a teacher at a good school bc u could absorb information and regurgitate it back. Other than that your insight is poor and literally said damning misinformed things in that first video i ever saw from you TO A CLASS OF STUDENTS THAT ALSO GOT POSTED TO THE SCHOOLS OFFICIAL YOUTUBE. I hate you i hate you i hate you. ON EVERY NANOANSTRUM OF MY BEING. Hate... hATE!
#i was gonna give the “no free will” take a chance just so i could fall asleep but his reasonings were extremely absurd#i was like what the hell.. and then as i was gonna leave a comment i found out it was robert LIKE NO WAY. HIM?? MAKES SENSE#he literally stopped me from sleeping bc now im wide awake fuck that guy

just saw a girl on tiktok saying that actors and actresses simulating sex scenes or extended physical contacts when they got spouses at home is unnecessary… when did we all become so puritans.. why is sex evil all of a sudden
#‘we are the sexually liberated generation’ my ass. what sexually liberated generation hates sex so much#the comments under that video.. ‘it’s always so irrelevant to the plot’ mhmm no? if there’s sex involved it’s always relevant to the plot it#adds meaning of whatever variation#do you know that sex is ok? like it’s not the end of the world i doesn’t have to mean anything#this generation is becoming so conservative with the idea of sex. at least the girl knew it was a conservative take#the problem is 1.1 million people liked that video… so people agree with her. agree that sex & make out scenes and aren’t necessary in a#movie or show#what have we become really#the rise of conservatism in youths is scaring but the quite frankly conservative takes disguised as ‘liberal’ or ‘woke’ or whatever label#americans use is absurd#so many young users of social media think they’re revolutionary when their take is ‘sex is bad actually’#needed to get this off my chest really#sex discourse#gen z

outta pocket horny comments in the reblogs of my posts. you know what, go off..tumblr's kind of the place for it if anything
#and wrestling's inherently a little psychosexual and homoerotic#pretty much every fan can acknowledge that#there are iconic segments where the wrestlers play off it#even before i discovered shipping some moments were like 🤨🏳️🌈?#some comments however do make me laugh. theyre so absurd and ott. like any male pregnancy stuff. i pretend i do not see it

I'm not done listening to the Alex Hirsch interviews but god it just reminds me both of how much I miss this show and how much I appreciate the love and care that went into it. I love listening to him talk about the characters with a frankness and care that shows how much he values them being three dimensional beings.
#notably his answer about mabel in lost legends i thought was strong of like#yeah were going to give her a story that shes flawed in thats the point of a story#i still dont *love* dont dimension it bc i think it doesnt completely hit what theyre aiming for#the Mabels Fault is so weirdly pointed and bizarre#and her apology at the end is like. eh. bad. it needs another draft i think it needs more space to be explored.#ive been thinking a *lot* about 'mabel hatred' as i think about the show again#i do need to rewatch the show before i make a long comment on it#and how much of it began from people being frustrated that she was continually denied a proper episode where she was allowed to be wrong#in an interesting way#love god in particular is. weird.#and last mabelcorn felt like the beginning of an arc that didnt really happen#like that she was always untouchable in a sense#and that argument was co opted by people who were just unbelievably cruel to her and completely unreasonable#let me be clear: mabel hatred is overblown and absurd and i hate it s omuch#but i also dont like it when people put her on a pedestal of Perfect Unflawed Glitter Goddess#while also being like wow look at the depth of dipper#if youre going to say mabel cant be selfish because shes 12 you also cant say dipper has depth bc by that logic hes also 12#anyway im sure someone will misinterpret these tags thats why theyre in the tags#mary blabs

It´s not actually funny, but every now and again I’ll remember sanderson going ”Dalinar wasn't too sad about that” in regards to becoming an orphan and just burst out laughing
#I’m not over it#its such an absurd comment to make#everyone else is angsting about their dead parents#not here

during tonight's yyh watch my mom asked "is hiei gonna be my favorite?" (her current fav's kurama, which i probably should have seen coming). i said that when first discussing watching this with her and my dad, i was immediately like oh she's gonna LOVE kuwabara. not necessarily kuwa = favorite but she'll love him. and she was like i do but he's too stupid to be my favorite 💀💀💀 like. damn
#i HARD gravitate towards stupid characters so maybe that's a me thing but like. too stupid to be your favorite? my sweet boy kuwabara??#he's not brainless or anything he's thoughtful and has his clever moments he's just.. a little dumb. most of the time <3#anyway she likes kurama bc he's the calm voice of reason but he does NOT fuck around and yk what i can respect that#but like... don't be mean to him :(( not to kuwabara...#yyh#also we got another kuwabara's in love with yusuke comment fuck yeah#idk why but it makes me feel so validated hearing that. it's like it's basically canon to me now. absurd

Had THE funniest dream last night
#i was roommates with this couple who for some reason decided they were going to bone directly outside the house#like on the front porch more or less#except they were really worried about being seen? so i was kind of keeping a lookout for them#pretty much as soon as they.. began; a legolas cosplayer appeared complete with a camera crew#OH THAT WAS THE THING! my roommates were filming themselves but it was just on a mounted tripod#so i just opened the window and said ‘uhhh do you guys have a camera crew?’ and they looked around and screamed#had to run inside naked from the waist down. i was laughing and laughing#for some reason my next move was to post about this on tumblr but it got no notes and i was impatient so i posted about it on facebook#and TONS of people liked it immediately and then were sharing it and long story short it went viral#and there were random people in the comments saying like ‘oh this is so obviously fake’ and ‘why does she sound so unconcerned?’#because why would i be concerned?? gay sex is legal.. having it where other people can see isn’t exactly legal but they got inside quickly#and the legolas cosplayer and his camera crew didn’t exactly seem traumatised. they just looked confused if anything#also i’d written it in kind of a sarcastic and funny tone to be entertaining because it was honestly an absurd situation#why i would’ve posted this to FACEBOOK where most of my friends are my elderly relatives; ex-coworkers and high school people i don’t know#anyway that was my dream. two guys i vaguely know had four-second sex on my front porch; saw a legolas cosplayer; screamed and ran inside#OH and the other part of my dream was one of my mutuals on here (who i have only spoken to via prev tags) for some reason had my mobile#number and kept trying to call me#i had them in my phone just as their tumblr url even though they have a name and i know it? and for some reason i kept panicking#and rejecting the call and then coming up with spurious reasons for doing so#even though this person was extremely chill about it and was like ‘oh we can just talk another time!’#it made NO sense. i would absolutely speak to this person on the phone if i got the chance#but also why would i give them my number? and why would they be calling me from the states??#anyway. if you need me i’m going to make breakfast and go to pilates#personal

"The person responded that it is true that Xianzhou people like large and strong pets, but there are also those who love petite and delicate ones. Now that he saw the sparkle in my eyes, he expected that I must be the latter"
#This man is one of those big guys with a kitten or a chihuahua‚ isn't he?#He is actually adorable and it makes the pictures of him softly handling birds while he looks at them with extreme tenderness gain layers#I love that he had read about the grimalkin in old texts‚ so appropriate. And that he was suspicious of the scam‚ so fitting#I found very cute that he made a comment about it not being an invasive species#But I adore that he couldn't turn down the offer 'after petting those tender little paws'. Truly this man is adorable haha#He called it 'Mimi' because he expected it to be cute and tiny and he got himself a lion this man is absurd and adorable I can't xD#And I love how he is not fazed by much including public opinion. How he says to Fu Xuan that about him facing the consequences as a joke#but perhaps with some truth and how he says here 'Qingzu was worried that could be bad for me‚ but I didn't think too much of it#and told her not to worry. In my opinion‚ «The Glutton General» sounds more impressive than «The Dozing General»'#Oh I love him so hahaha#However everything is cancelled. Not Jing Yuan‚ Blade‚ Fu Xuan‚ Sampo or Jingliu. My favourite character is Qingzu. We stan a funny liar#The reference to Doraemon got me lol#I can't stop thinking about Jing Yuan holding Yanqing with such tenderness in the context of these lines#And the birds. And the Yanqing—birds... parallelism? which I love. What a soft lovely man he is haha#Truly they did his character a disservice with the imposing general voice in the English dub#It's almost worth playing in Chinese for that alone#Jing Yuan#I talk too much#I can't believe he got scammed into buying a lion because he thought he was buying something small#He truly is one of those extremely stupid highly intelligent people‚ eh?#I couldn't love him more haha I find him so funny and endearing#He seems to have stopped because the cat was small and cute and he thought no one was going to buy it at first too?#He is really adorable and I can't stop thinking about Yanqing in this context
