Guys, babs x Dr Orwell from asoue would be an amazing toxic rarepair. Just imagine Georgina hypnotizing babs into being her girlfriend, and along the way, babs learns to leave behind her rigid schedules and paperwork. BUT then Babs feels dependent on Gergeina to have excitement in her life. It would be so toxic

hyperfixating is so embarrassing someone tells me they have a cut on the bottom of their foot and i go "oh, like the lumbermill co-owner from season 1 episode 8 of that Netflix show and movie you've never seen! yeah, in that scene where he and the visually impaired child are hypnotized. no, *before* the infant almost gets thrown into the furnace that kills the optometrist."

Propaganda Under Cut:
Fantine (Mother of Cosette): Recommended by Elmaxlys. Was abandoned by the father of her child and did everything in her power to provide for her young daughter no matter what happened to her.
Regina Mills (Mother of Henry): Regina loves her son and is very protective of him.

had to get a new warping board for my loom bc mine broke several months ago and i haven't had the energy or will to fix it (it's a handmade wooden one my late stepdad made for me, so i WILL fix it i have to fix it for sentimental reasons but i just can't right now) so after putting it off for ages i finally bit the bullet and ordered a new one. i hate how expensive this equipment is it's literally just 4 pieces of wood with dowels wym it's $160 kms. whatever i can finally weave again

The Complete Works of Contradictory Logic in ASOUE: Volume I (Quote Debunk 10)
Part 7 - The Miserable Mill S1 E7
Quick Intro: Surprise! I'm back after what I know has been quite a long while - life's been keeping me busy! As Voltaire once said: "Life is thickly sown with thorns and I know no other remedy than to pass quickly through them."
Time to carry on where we left off...
And of course we're jumping straight in with Mr Poe-ntless:
01:49 - "We must act now! We must act without delay! We... (sniffs)... need... (sniffs again)... We need... (sniffs some chowder because why not?) Oh! Oh, my! Oh, my, this is excellent chowder. Mmm, mmm, good. Oh, God... [chugs the entire thing - again, why not?]"
How did we ever believe this guy cared about the Baudelaires?
05:06 - "Pink Floyd's "The Wall"... Although Mother wouldn't let me watch that one."
Not contradictory per se, but a beautifully subtle reference to the lyrics of the song 'Another Brick in The Wall, Pt 2.' particularly the chorus:
We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher, leave them kids alone!
So I guess it's contradictory, in a way, to the underlying principles of V.F.D.
07:06 - "They have to do what I say, even my partner here." ~ Sir
Luckily Klaus responds quickly and correctly to this one.
10:06 - "...who joined you for years on a sequence of heists and schemes until the two of you were forced apart by circumstance, and also because you ran off in the middle of the night with a bunch of her valuables?" ~ Olaf. to Evander the Truck Driver
What a way to lose a lady. Something tells me only Olaf would do something like this!
The chocolate bar scene at 10:26 is funny, but not really the kind of contradiction we're looking for.
14:45 - "I'm just an old friend" *sniffs flowers and writhes in disgust* ~Olaf to Georgina
"Um, Dr Orwell's not here right now." ~ Dr Orwell (Georgina) to Olaf.
Sheer genius. Neatly covered with the hilarity of Olaf's facial expression after smelling the flowers.
15:06 - "So he isn't just knocking on Dr Orwell's door because he needs something - for himself?" ~ Georgina
Olaf: *chuckles*, *pulls angry face*, *chuckles*
It's brilliantly timed and brilliantly filmed. Also better/easier to understand when viewed.
15:27 - "...who shares one's brilliance, one's charm, one's dubious moral code in a world gone gloriously wrong." ~ Olaf
Olaf was just trying to find alphabetical words; 'brilliance' and 'charm' have quite different meaning and connotation to 'dubious'.
Also, a world gone 'gloriously wrong', eh, Olaf? I wonder how it got that way...
15:48 - This gem:
Georgina: "I took a solemn oath that my office would be closed to you forever even during regular business hours."
Also Georgina: "How big a fortune are we talking?"
22:22 - "I took a chance on treating you like grown-ups, don't make me regret it." ~ Sir to the Baudelaires
A classic phrase often said to children to enforce good behaviour now twisted to benefit Sir's bank balance. Respect, Handler! This kind of thing goes unnoticed very easily.
25:25 - "You, me, an evil scheme, a little death." ~ Olaf
"La petit mort" ~ Georgina
"You know I love it when you speak Spanish." ~ Olaf
Ok. First off, 'la petit mort' is, in fact, French not Spanish. Secondly, 'la petit mort' literally means 'the little death' but in French slang, it means something else entirely... [Hint: not child-friendly...]
26:10 - "It represents the eyes of God staring down and judging society as a moral wasteland." ~ Klaus
"Oh, that sounds like a fun book." ~ Phil
Not really sure how fun this is... but the same could be said about ASOUE to be fair. Each to his own, I suppose.
37:24 - "We've fought a host of unsavoury characters, including a most unfriendly refrigerator repair person. We've flown a plane into a hurricane. We've been to Peru and back to get home to our children. And today, finally, we'll all be together. What could be wrong?"
Gotta love the sarcasm when it's there.
There's also the piece related to the final scene about Sir mentioning the 'probable' (yeah right) conditions of the Baudelaires, which are actually his own... this isn't as contradictory as it perhaps could've been so not worth writing in full.

“What else can we do?” Klaus said quietly. He began to feel along the side of the building to find the door, and at this point in the story of the Baudelaire orphans, I would like to interrupt for a moment and answer a question I’m sure you are asking yourself. It is an important question, one which many, many people have asked many, many times, in many, many places all over the world. The Baudelaire orphans have asked it, of course. Mr. Poe has asked it. I have asked it. My beloved Beatrice, before her untimely death, asked it, although she asked it too late. The question is: Where is Count Olaf?
-- tmm
im trying to reconstruct the day of the fire. how did she ask this question. what was the situation that led to this question to be asked. or was it not actually referring to that day

I think the best thing netflix did was changing it so that the Baudelaires ran away and ended up at the lumbermill rather than them literally being placed there.
