#they claimed the movie was funny too and just?? bitch where???

[thetimelordbatgirl]

Bruh, there's hating Wish 2023 and then there's straight up trying to call Chip 'N' Dale: Rescue Rangers a better 100 years movie for Disney then Wish 2023, because holy shit, imagine saying a movie that disrespected a dead actor that Disney themselves screwed over and basically was a glorified show off of all the IP's Disney owns while also just straight up being an insult to its own medium, is better then an animated movie that you don't like and should represent Disney's 100 years as a company. ...Actually you know what, given I just mentioned Disney screwed over an actor whose now dead and then proceeded to disrespect him via a character in the film, maybe its a great representation of them as a company: mistreating people who worked for them even until to this day and even after they dead.

chapter one: do you like scary movies?

words: 1.51k // warnings: minor character death, cursing

OFFICIAL GHOSTFACE KILL COUNT: 000

heejin jumped as the monster in the movie claimed another victim with its knife-like fingers. why did she even choose to watch this again? nightmare on something? beech road? no, that wasn’t right… elm street! stupid fucking elm street and stupid fucking freddy kreuger with his stupid fucking hands. she wasn’t even supposed to be watching it alone, let alone throwing her popcorn around the living room every time something scared her, but her dumbass boyfriend never turned up for date night. it was his choice of movie too!

when the phone rang, she rolled her eyes and paused the movie. if that wasn’t suho calling her with a good explanation, she was going to be pissed. he’d sworn he wouldn’t be late tonight, and further sworn that he wasn’t going to flake again like he did everytime their date night coincided with a lacrosse-team party.

“goddammit, suho, you promised you’d be on time tonight, i–”

but the voice at the end of the phone was not that of her boyfriend. in fact, it wasn’t a voice she recognized at all, so how did they have her number? and why were they calling her at 10:30 on a wednesday night?

“all alone tonight, heejin? what a shame. seems like a waste for a pretty girl like you to be by herself.” the voice almost sounded distorted, like someone was using a voice-changer on the end of the line.

“listen, if this is some sort of stupid prank, its not funny. who is this?” 

between the stress of upcoming finals, and a flaky boyfriend who seemed to enjoy the company of a football more than he did his girlfriend, heejin wasn’t in the mood for jokes. 

the voice chuckled, in a way that sent a shiver up heejin’s spine. “i think the better question is; where am i? you should really learn to lock your doors when you’re home alone, kid.”

“this isn’t funny. fuck off.” heejin hissed, slamming the phone down and heading back towards the comfort of her couch. kid. she wasn’t a kid. who the fuck where they to talk to her all patronizing like that? but just as she attempted to take her seat, the phone rang again.

huffing, she picked up the handset. “what?”

“now, thats not nice. i just wanna talk.” the voice laughed, something eerie about their tone putting heejin on edge.

“yeah, they’ve got 900 numbers for that. bye, now.”

tossing the phone on the counter, heejin headed into the kitchen to make herself a glass of water. what kind of weirdo called up girls on a wednesday night to scare them? men were weird. but she barely managed to cross the threshold of the kitchen when the ringing of the phone pierced the silence again.

heejin was beginning to get upset at this point. why wouldn’t they get the hint? if it was suho or his friends pulling a prank, she was truly going to get mad. but, she’d give them one last chance to piss off and grow up.

“listen here, asshole-!” she shouted, but was quickly cut off.

“no, you listen here you little bitch! hang up on me again and i’ll gut you like a fish!” the voice growled, catching her off guard. “yeah, thats right. wanna play a game, blondie? it’s called ‘guess how i’m gonna die’.”

trying to stop her voice from shaking, heejin ran across the lower expanse of the house, locking all the doors and windows she could see. what the fuck kind of joke was this?

“what do you want? please- don’t fuck with me.” backing into the living room to draw the blinds and grab the first weapon she could see - a letter cutter - she hid herself behind the tv display. she’d quickly realized this wasn’t suho or his friends - even they knew when a joke went too far.

“well, then. if you wanna see your pretty, little boyfriend again, you better be smart about this.” was the only reply she received as the voice laughed. the house was quiet - too quiet - heejin thought as she curled herself further into a corner. and what did suho have to do with this? holding back tears, she prayed her parents would come home soon.

“round one of the game, blondie. its no fun if you hide. why don’t you come out where i can see ya? if you don’t, i’m afraid its an automatic win for me.”

taking a deep breath to calm herself, heejin pulled herself out of the ball she was curled in and took a few cautious steps into the middle of the room. maybe the voice was bluffing? as long as she stayed inside the house, not going outside to “investigate a noise” like the dumb bitches in horror films, she’d be okay.

“good,” the voice on the other end of the phone drawled, the tone making heejin’s skin crawl. “now, round two. did you lock me out of the house, or did you lock me in?”

the call dropped, making heejin’s breath catch in her throat. the silence surrounding her was ridiculously loud, and she was scared to make a step or turn, even slightly. surely, this was just a prank. the guys had obviously just taken it too far, and were probably laughing at her wherever they were hidden. the minute she found them, she’d give them a piece of her mind.

it had to be a prank, didn’t it? stuff like this didn’t happen in woodsboro, it was the safest town she’d ever known.

any slight whistle of the wind outside sounded like an ever-growing closer breath, every tick of the clock like a creaky footstep reverberating throughout the house. clutching the letter cutter to her body, heejin tiptoed towards the hallway, hoping that she could get to her bedroom and hide in there until her parents returned home.

but that never came.

instead, she turned the corner to hear loud, clomping footsteps approaching her. a tall figure was inching closer to her, a father-death costume donned, and a large kitchen knife in their hand - her own kitchen knife. she feared she was about to die by her own utensil, unless whichever jock was pranking her took the mask off now.

holding onto hope that this was just a joke gone too far, although deep down she knew that wasn’t the case, she held out the letter cutter, swinging it.

“suho, i swear to fuck. if you don’t take that mask off right now and apologise, i won’t be held responsible for my actions.” her voice trembled as the faux-confidence slipped from her aura.

surprisingly, the figure did take the mask off, but much to heejin’s horror, it wasn't her loving boyfriend, or any of his stupid friends, and he continued to approach her, knife clutched tightly in his fist and a sadistic smile on his face.

“please, don’t do this- please, i’ll do anything!” heejin pleaded, tears falling freely down her face as the man grabbed a fistful of her hair and traced the edge of the knife against her throat.

the last words she ever heard were a simple, yet arrogantly cocky “i win.” before the knife was plunged into her stomach.

–

(y/n) climbed out of her car in confusion, wondering why so many people were around campus today. did she miss the memo for an event? it was only 8:20am, why were the emergency services on site?

barely anyone seemed to be walking alone, people grasping each other tightly. she spotted at least 6 girls crying, 4 boys pale and sickly in apparent shock. she couldn’t even begin to count the amount of students and staff talking to news reporters or journalists. what the hell was going on?

spotting jisung climbing off his bus, she jogged over to him, her confusion ever-growing and ever-present on her features. being her best friend and the biggest social butterfly she knew, surely jisung would have an answer to the gossip swirling around her in hushed voices.

“ji! what’s going on?” she called, grasping his attention, confused further as he ran over and picked her up in a hug, the relief clear in his aura.

“thank fuck, you’re okay. everyone’s been trying to get hold of you all morning. did you lose your phone or something? don’t ever fucking scare us like that again!”

(y/n) was slightly shocked, jisung had never raised his voice at her like that. none of the boys did. what the hell did she miss last night? everyone was acting so… weird. she didn’t know what she’d missed during her study night with yeji, but clearly it was something major. something bad.

“did something happen on campus? why are the news here? was there a fire or something?” she questioned, arm slung around her friend’s shoulders, but her expression soon dropped as the boy turned to face her - a look of what could only be described as sheer terror on his face.

“did you not hear? kang heejin was murdered last night.”

[stardust-swan]

I'm convinced that the idea that "love is blind" is a pysop meant to brainwash women into settling for less. I always see beautiful women who clearly take care of themselves, dress well, get their lashes done, work out etc with boyfriends who look like they just rolled out of bed and put yesterday's clothes on. And I very rarely see this happening the other way around.

Men shill the idea that it's shallow for women to want someone who looks halfway decent but never hold themselves to this standard. They're so cruel to women they find unfuckable and treat women who they are attracted to but don't fit the societal beauty standard as dirty secrets (how many times have fat women talked about how men are happy to have sex with them but won't claim them in public because they think being seen with a fat woman is embarrassing?) The dadbod thing has been big for a couple of years while there has been no equivalent for mombods that gained traction (you know, the ones whose bodies actually went through physical changes due to pregnancy instead of just gaining weight from stealing their kid's snacks and watching the football instead of playing it).

It's so bad that even women shill this idea to other women. You have to ignore the fact that he never trims his beard and his daily outfit is a lint encrusted hoodie and sweatpants with a hole because if you don't you're shallow and not considering who he is on the inside too. We're told that being haggard shouldn't count as long as they have a good personality, and while I agree personality is important, a huge amount of men don't have good personalities. A lot of men are boring at best and a lot of them are just straight up assholes. Most of them aren't raking it in cash either to make up for their lack of looks and character. It's sad to see so many women doing the most for men who aren't particularly pleasant to be around, don't have money, and aren't physically appealing.

Men also shill this to eachother. I remember when I was a teenager there were huge hate trains almost entirely compromised of grown men against any pretty boy singer who got popular (Justin Bieber had it especially bad). They never did anything wrong (Justin Bieber's hate train was at its worst years before he started acting like a douche), men just hated them because they looked nice and girls liked them. They also act like any guy in real life who's comfortable with being attractive instead of purposefully making themselves unattractive to fit in with the other ugly men is gay and act bitterly when the men who actually make an effort get more female attention than a man who last showered three days ago. They act like women are catty bitches who hate prettier women when their egos are so fragile around men who look decent. There was even a recent study that suggested good looking men are at a disadvantage when applying for certain jobs, because their male colleagues feel threatened by them.

It wasn't always like this either. Not all that long ago it was expected that a man dress up nicely, wear cologne, style his hair etc when he was trying to court a woman.

When my mother was my age, she could just walk into a cinema and at any given time there would be films with leading men who looked like Leo, Depp, Brad Pitt, James Spader, River Phoenix, Will Smith, Denzel Washington, Brendan Fraser, etc. And now those World's Sexiest Men lists are filled with average or below average men and we're told that we're meant to cream our panties over guys who look indistinguishable or even worse than your average guy on the street. Right after this era my mum was young in was when the media started pushing this idea that we have to settle for unattractive men or else we're immature and shallow. There were a ton of movies with men like Adam Sandler pulling gorgeous 20 year old women just because they were funny. That stupid genre of movie where an awkward nerd pines over the cheerleader who is pining over a jock who's always portrayed as a bully that the cheerleader is framed as misguided or a bitch for wanting a handsome boyfriend instead of picking the nerd (even though the dork main character we're meant to root for also only likes the cheerleader for her looks and is just as much of an asshole as the jock) in became really popular around the same time.

Unsure of whether this is because of men complaining about beauty standards or other feminist concepts they only half understand (while female beauty standards never budge and have always and remain a much higher bar to reach than male beauty standards), or if men are just forcing this idea that looking like shit is cancelled out by telling a few dad jokes so that women will feel pressured into dating them no matter how busted they look just to not be alone.

[haveyouseenthisskeleton]

Would the skeletons be down to watch movies or tv shows with a human friend? And what is their favorite genre?

Undertale Sans - An activity when he can just sit and do nothing? Count him in! He's a sci-fi lover, so pretty much any movie with aliens will please him. Bonus point if the special effects are terrible, he loves cringe movies.

Undertale Papyrus - Sure! He likes comedies the most, but he's happy to discover new things too. He likes everything as long as he can cuddle on the couch. He's a big fan of TV games too, especially quizzes. He takes them very seriously, he's counting points and he will annihilate everyone in the house. He can be a dirty player when he really wants to win.

Underswap Sans - URGH. Really? Blue doesn't like to just sit and do nothing so chances are you start the moving, he loses focus after ten minutes and goes to play on his phone lol. Choose what you want, he really doesn't care.

Underswap Papyrus - He loves this very much, and obviously, you're going to watch either a Disney or a Marvel movie. He knows them all by heart and he saw them 30 times each, but he loves them too much to not watch them again. His favorite things are movie marathons.

Underfell Sans - He likes TV shows where people are fighting for the stupidest thing. Like their wedding day, or a dinner, or because that crazy rich woman can't have a new pair of shoes when she has a billion already. He can't get over it. He loves to bitch with his S/O watching them.

Underfell Papyrus - He doesn't like horror movies but since he wants to impress his S/O he pretends it's his favorite genre ever. Then, he's not sleeping for three days because what the hell he has nightmares and he's scared you will get possessed and he doesn't want that. Worth it though if you liked it.

Horrortale Sans - He's not difficult, whatever you're watching is fine. Anyway, he's going to forget what the show is talking about midway so... He's just there for the free cuddles on the couch honestly.

Horrortale Papyrus - He's a romantic movies sucker, especially around Christmas. He can watch movies for entire days, crying and hugging his pillows (or S/O). It prevents him for working too hard as well when you notice he's too stressed because he can't stop watching them.

Swapfell Sans - He doesn't like watching TV very much, but he can exceptionally watch a movie with you. He likes the old classic ones. Above 2000, he will criticize everything and claim it was better before, which can get very annoying.

Swapfell Papyrus - He likes stupid comedies and funny TV shows, especially when the type of humor is absurd. He's a big fan. He's always finding the worst movies ever so you two can have a good laugh, like Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. You don't even want to know how he found that movie.

Fellswap Gold Sans - Only movies that win prizes because he's a snob. You swear he doesn't understand anything to what he is watching like you, but he's pretending very well. One day, you'll catch him.

Fellswap Gold Papyrus - He could watch cartoons and animes all day long so YES, please. He can even make some pop corn, and grab a blanket, and make a pillow fort! And then you stay there forever and you never leave!

Transformers: Goosebumps | Dark Autobots Snippet

So my silly bitch ass was thinking about dark Autobots. Not quite Shattered Glass, but similar, but like they're as evil as I want them to be! Here's just a snippet that I pumped out in a few minutes, not finalized or edited, but I had finished watching this Netflix movie, 'Leave the World Behind' and it just sparked me with an idea on how to start this. I jotted this idea down a while ago and just never got back to it- until now. Could you tell I had listened to Goosebumps by Travis Scott!? :p

Title: Goosebumps Summary: As Sam watches aliens descend upon their planet, he realizes with horror that they're not as peaceful and freedom loving as they claim to be.

It's the cellphones that go first. Sam's not too disturbed, after all, he still has his computer.

But soon that goes too.

12 plane crashes. One day.

There are thousands of people dead. Their corpses littered the pavement. Three said flights landed in a major city, hitting five buildings, with a blast radius double their length.

Every once in a while there's an odd ringing. Worldwide.

Nationwide blackouts.

The crops stop growing.

The water is drying up faster than they can calculate.

Metal sprouts from the ground, sharp jagged edges in a brilliant silver impaling people at random.

It's no longer safe to go outside.

People start getting sick, some are dying within days, others are cured from their disease.

Situations are too dire to upkeep most public spaces. School is canceled, prisons are full of riots, people storm their capitals and raise hell until their questions are answered.

And the government is silent.

The kings and queens are silent.

Because they too, haven't the faintest idea of what will happen next- what has happened.

Sam as an inkling.

The world is ending.

And then…

Metal beasts descend from the sky. Cybertronians, they call themselves.

The Universe is under attack and Earth holds the one object to save it.

But of course, humanity figures it's not a good idea to give it to them.

If only they had known.

The steel giants show no mercy, especially after one of their own is injured in a scuffle.

Hell is unleashed in a torrent of waves. Fire. Water. Ice. Wind. Bullets.

Bombs.

Sam thinks it's funny that now everyone on Earth decides to band together to a united front. He's picked up and torn from his family to protect the very thing the aliens are here for. He doesn't quite understand why they just don't give them the damned thing.

But he guards it like his life is on the line. Because it is.

Bombs are strapped to their bodies, in case they get any lucky ideas.

But he gets good at his job. His parents are held at gunpoint, along with another dozen or so, and a cap will be put in their skull if they don't comply.

So Sam has no other choice but to be good at his job. His fuck up, fucks them up.

Maybe, he gets too good at his job. He sees too much. He watches people bargain using other people as currency. He stays guarding the AllSpark at all hours. The only exception being getting sleep and eating.

He contacts his parents once a month. He has no clue where Miles is, and sometimes it gets so much to the point where he can barely remember his name. His parents name.

He gets bored. The others don't speak to him so…

He speaks to the AllSpark.

In an interesting turn of events, it speaks back, in a way.

The giant metal cube will shift whenever he's near, panels and plates clicking and elevating, swirling in a flurry of energy around his body. For a long time in a while, he laughs, and enjoys the time he spends here.

And for all of the horrible things that the world is faced with, for all of humanity's struggles and strife, for the brink of destruction they are forced on, the very object that started it all is the one thing that brings him hope.

He hopes the war ends soon.

But the insanity is only beginning.

hey there, loca! (I'm sorry, It's never not funny saying that)

this is a blog of mine where i could be moody, horny, random and a crackhead that i am—with my awful jokes that only i find funny (if you find it funny, I'll kiss your nose)—legally. apparently. i will also reblog or post about stuff from my fandoms. i watched a lot of stuff—not that kind of stuff, get your head out of the gutter 🤨🫵🏽—name it. anime, movies, tv shows, books, games, kdrama, manga, manhwa, manhua, webtoon. look forward to it, maybe we'll have something in common and if you wanna talk about it just hit the button below my description. anyway, here's the awaiting introduction i guess.

╔⏤⏤⏤╝❀╚⏤⏤⏤╗

ann/nina (it's up to you what you wanted to referred me as). she/her. eighteen. an introvert in disguise of an extravert. enfp. cancer. hufflepuff. a writer with lots of unfinished WIP.

╚⏤⏤⏤╗❀╔⏤⏤⏤╝

and that's all, folks! I'm afraid that's all i can tell you about myself for an introduction, or else it'll be too long. btw @annn-starrr is an imposter, she copied my interest and claimed she likes those things first. you dumb bitch, you thought you ate??? come outside where we can settle things properly or you're just too much of a scaredy cat who depends too much on her daddy?

[mamamittens]

Had a neat OC idea I will likely do Nothing Ever With.

Rambling under cut.

So, pretty early into my daydreaming while listening to the choir version of "Like a prayer" from the new Deadpool movie, I imagined this new OC would take cues and inspiration from angels for obvs reasons.

And somehow this snowballed into Thatch growing up with a best friend (maybe they're shippy later maybe they're actually brother and sister, haven't decided but they definitely love each other) who's got a very unusual devil fruit.

The devil fruit was a decision made later (like, an hour lol) but I'm on the fence for it. Basically she's got the entirety of a universe in her head and constantly hears them speaking to her. So she's kind of slow irl to react to shit but if you give her a minute she usually has really fucking good advice. Never falls for lies unless it's OP world specific bullshit that she, naturally, would not have any clue about.

This would be hidden by simply not writing in her POV until sometime later, Thatch regarding her very fondly and protectively because of how honest but kinda ditzy she comes off as.

In reality, anyone would take a minute to respond if they had dozens of voices in their head piping up like nosy bitches.

Maybe one upside is that she learns a lot of shit really fast because in her dreams she walks the "lost world" and is usually taught stuff by people who were very knowledgeable about it. No one knows who gets to teach her next because it's decided by 'higher powers' of that world. Mainly so I don't need to explain or have her run into horrible ass people. They're there, but she won't be meeting them. Ever.

So it is funny when she learns criminal shit just because it would be handy to know and the person is actually a good person. So like, she can make explosives out of literally anything and pick locks.

Anyway, the spooky biblical angel shit is usually not active. She can give prophetic visions by eye contact and the 'godly blood' that she cries. This is just a side effect of housing deities. The thing is, if you look for too long your brain fries cause you start to see ALL their true forms, which is horrifying and brain melting. So she can only do it sparingly, and preferably just by letting them cradle a pool of tears in lieu of eye contact. Keeps the worst of it at bay. Her eyes used to be normal but are now liquid gold with a very trippy halo as her iris. Constantly blooming and rotating in unfathomable shapes. Luckily another side effect of this power is the ability to see 'past obstacles in life', which just means shit like her eyelids and possibly walls.

Now, I did want to give her wings, and I still might. An awakened form would likely sprout multiple wings with a visible halo and all. On the fence about it.

Anyway, the reason an entire universe got sealed away into a kid's head is because a horrifying creature who eats dimensions came knocking and they needed to GTFO. They claim to 'collect' universes by eating them, where they won't ever truly die but will remain in a constant loop of death. The agony and horrors fueling this monster to rip open more holes to eat more dimensions.

So they naturally, eventually, sniff out this escaped world and come to consume it in its new, conveniently small packaging. They think it's very clever and cute, almost a shame to be rid of it, but their pride demands otherwise. This is when she wields her full power and, with the BS of her home universe and maybe allies (undecided, this was the main scene based in vibes) she defeats it and the 'choir' falls silent for the first time in her life.

She nearly dies as all that energy escapes, freeing her of the burden once and for all.

"...it's so quiet... I'm so tired."

But she lives, now mostly normal. Still cries gold and fucks with people's minds with her fucky eyes though. Divinity doesn't go away that easily.

Additional thoughts I had!

I liked the idea of Thatch coming to her when Whitebeard recruited him in an attempt to get her to go with him and he just like, shows up at her door like "I'm a pirate now!"

"I thought you were a chef? When did this happen?"

"Well, I decked the owner of the pub and this pirate captain, Captain Whitebeard--"

"Call me Pops, all my kids do!"

"Pops, offered to take me on!"

"...so, a random man sees you get fired and offers to hire you. And tells you to call him 'dad' basically? Are you... Sure he's a pirate? I feel like I've heard this as a warning before somewhere. And you brought him here for... My approval? To let me know before he gives you booty shorts and tells you to mop the deck? What are you thinking right now, Thatch?"

(Whitebeard chokes on air, Marco, who followed wheezes)

"T-Thats not what's going on here!!!! He's an actual pirate captain! I came here... To see... If you'd come with me?"

"...Thatch, that's... I think that's sweet? But we both know I'm not very fast. Being a pirate is pretty dangerous you know. Weren't you telling me last week to not get into anything dangerous?"

Basically it doesn't work, she stays, if she has wings it's on the basis that the locals think her giant wings are normal but at sea everyone would know better.

Anyway, their home island ends up getting ransacked and she's on a slaver ship, picked up by none other than Roger's crew. Roger says he could "hear her voice from miles away, like a crowd of thousands screaming for help". She ends up looking after the boys and as a more positive influence that's not a pirate. Unsure about timeline, but she knows Roger's sick very early and, fueled by her own visions of the future, offers him a look. Specifically to either attempt to prevent his death or plan better for it.

Specifically getting him by mentioning the inevitable fate of his future son if he doesn't pull some massive strings before he dies.

I imagined this scene very early.

Mainly her carefully cupping his hands together (they're alone, maybe Reyleigh is there) and telling him to keep his eyes on his hands. Not to look into her eyes. And just cries unnaturally thick streams of liquid gold into his hands where the future is visible in their surface.

He sees bits of future.

He won't prevent his death, but he does ensure Rouge goes to Garps home island well before he's captured. Covers up her shit very well. Destiny secured, Ace is no longer an orphan. Would be funny if she winds up staying with Dadan and helping her actually raise baby under Garps orders. Also makes sure there's a plan for his crew to dip rather than shock them all at the last minute.

I think they run into Whitebeard while she's still with Roger, Thatch thrilled and horrified she's there. Upset she won't join them, but she promises once Roger disbands. And she does.

She offers to let Whitebeard see the future to try and make a better one but it takes telling him that he'd see the death of many sons before his own if he's not prepared to take her up on it.

I like the idea of her killing Teach by offering her power and knowledge of the future (which he may know she can do from eavesdropping) but telling him to look into her eyes for it. He dies, his eyes burned out of his skull and seizing. Very unpleasant.

Also liked the idea of her being cornered and allowing one of the souls to take over, that should being a master swordsman in his prime. Very unexpected.

Space Ghost Coast to Coast #76: “King Dead” | December 17, 1999 | S06E08

King Dead is not just the final “real” episode of Space Ghost that I’ll be covering (I WILL cover GameTap at a later date, which are fake episodes), it was also the final pre-Adult Swim episode of Space Ghost, and for what felt like a while this WAS the de-facto final episode of Space Ghost ever. I for one, was blissfully unaware that Space Ghost would ever resume production. There were no episodes of Coast to Coast produced in the year 2000, unless you count the alternate versions of “Snatch” and “Fire Ant”. I sure don’t, and you shouldn’t either.

Without being particularly piped in to Space Ghost ghost spaces I remember feeling dread that this could be it. What a dream to learn that Adult Swim was on the horizon, and with it a whole new season of Coast to Coast along with support from Space Ghost-esque quarter-hour absurdist programming. It seemed like a dream, like something to blog about, in fact. 

This one has guest H. Jon Benjamin. It just so happens he’s in the very first scene of the very first official “Adult Swim Show”, Home Movies. And what a ferryman he is. He is very funny and charming as a Space Ghost guest, and he has one of my favorite moments in any episode, which is the part where Zorak and Moltar disguise him as a lamp, and you see him nervously chortle as the buffoon Space Ghost doesn’t suspect a thing. I wonder if he talked about Home Movies during his full interview, or if they filmed his interview far too early for that to have happened, or if Home Movies was already doomed or what. He does talk about Dr. Katz, and Space Ghost even morphs into him at one point. He did that before, I think in Brilliant. But, when god closes a door.

The plot of the episode is Space Ghost fires Zorak and Moltar, so they start a band and then take over Space Ghost’s apartment, and he gets pissed off about it. They produce a video tape to list their “Unreasonable Demands” Zorak’s line “I want a pet I can love, but don’t have to take care of!” is one of my favorite jokes. The fact that it resembles an action movie trailer is also hilarious, and the fact that they fail to actually list their demands (other than the pet thing, I guess) is simply wonderful.

Also wonderful: the weird part when Moltar just begins fading from existence for no reason, and briefly acknowledges it with a panicked “Woah, where’d I go?” and then fades back in. It’s such an obtuse gag. Could it be based on Clay just earnestly asking this as he tested his headphones in the booth, and they stuck it in there for fun and friendship? Maybe! That would be funny if true, right???! 

Also, shamefully, I need to admit something: I never got the “--king dead” joke until maybe a few years ago. It’s Space Ghost saying that Zorak and Moltar will be “FUCking dead, and it’s just cut off at the beginning of the episode so he’s only saying “King Dead”. So subtle I didn’t even register it as a joke. Or, I’m stupid as fuck. Who’s to say? 

Other stuff that’s good (I’m in the mood for this): Space Ghost ignoring the distress call placed by Zorak claiming to be a woman in danger (as part of a ruse to rile Space Ghost). Space Ghost believes it’s a woman, but resigns himself to her fate by bluntly stating “she’d be dead before I got there”. They draw him out instead by threatening his cable television, and Tad becomes incensed when he finds out Zorak and Moltar have his cable on but aren’t watching it, which Space Ghost thinks is “wasting” it. 

Brak and Tansit take over for Zorak and Moltar respectively. Moltar shines in this episode; not only does he disappear, but he also has good ideas for band names and he yells at Brak that he ain't on Cartoon Planet. Way to put that bitch in his place. He will never be the star of a show ever again! Goddamn, this one has so much great shit in it. I left out like FIVE killer lines. Okay, one more: (sternly) “looks like your movie is going direct-to-video”.

Small Vent cause stressed ahhhh

Lowkey think people take games, anime, books,movies, shows and just fandoms in general waaaay too seriously.

Like yes I get it, it can suck when a character to adore gets misrepresented by others. But they are just fictional characters at the end of the day. Maybe I'm just mostly saying this to myself to remind myself that it's okay that someone doesn't see a character like how I do. Because I'm deadass in multiple fandoms where we really just go but wild with our own versions of the characters. Like I'm in the Warrior cats AND the My hero academia fandom... And both of them are known for taking the canon and wiping their buts with it and or ignoring older material. Because well it just happens.

At first I use to get upset about it like how the warrior fandom made Bramblestar out to be this abusive monster without acknowledging the archs before hand and how in My hero academia doing.... Literally anything lmao(I love y'all though... Half of you anyway)

But seriously I just started to realize that the fandoms I'm in aren't My fandoms like I don't own them and I don't own the source material or the IP or whatever. And sometimes you never know why someone images certain characters they way they do. Whether it's for comfort or they think it's funny or they find it attractive or just to annoy people or literally just whatever.

But I always gotta remind myself that hey... THE BITCHES AIN'T REAL LMAO. Why get pressed about how other people illustrate characters. Like seriously I had to sit myself down like I was my own parent and ask myself why do I care about a fictional character being written out of character or drawn with a different design. And I really was just like... Damn yeah why do I care? These artists/writers are having fun and that's what it means to be in a fandom to just have fun.

The only time when I do get serious is when people try to harass others for characters they like because of how they see them vs canon.

Example: I saw this young artist get a bunch of hate comments under a drawing of Bramblestar/Brambleclaw because a massive part of the fandom claimed he was an abuser. Happened again with someone draw Crowfeather x Leafpool fan art because of how seriously people took Leafpool x Mothwing

AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED WITH MHA! They harasses the creator of the show sooooo many times in the past and current because of ships :T SHIPS YALL. Like I understand how frustrating it can be to see the show not end up how you wanted it to or not see too characters make out or whateva but God damn... They are fictional characters chill and just enjoy what we have or hell make what you wanted to happen. I literally do it all the time on my other page @purplestaruwu

Hell I'm still upset about how many characters were botched (in my eyes) in warriors, MHA, Naruto, bleach, marvel, DC etc.

But I think the fun in the fandom is making the what it's and creating our own versions of he characters and sharing it with others who feel the same or who just want to enjoy seeing the characters being draw in different designs, Au's, etc

I use to be so stuck up about everything being close to canon... But then I was just like "You know what it's not hurting anyone, you do whatever" and after that I feel like I became more relaxed being in fandoms... At least I try to be sometimes I do slip up but I stopped commenting on peoples different pov or au's or whatever unless I was gonna say something nice like complimenting the art or the writing or how good the plot of the story was.

It just got easier to just enjoy things and to just well not be so aggressive on the internet and not be online so much.

Cause whenever I get made about seeing a fictional character drawn in a way I don't like and I feel the need to say something... I just be like "yeaaah it's time to take a break for the day I think I've been online for too long"

This also goes for real things that happen online too lmao I just learned to take breaks and breath and remind myself that the online world is just that... The online world... And fandoms are just that fandoms...

I'm venting right now because I'm stressed out or more than likely I stressed myself out with because of online crap. And I just wanted to kind of put this here for me and for anyone else who kind of needs that reminder than you don't need to be online so much and you don't need to protect fictional characters or shows or movies or games or whatever it's not worth hurting someone's feelings because that.

But yeah that's all I think. Have a nice day and go drink some water c:

Helping with Trouble for Trump

Liberals helping Donald Trump show that bipartisanship lives.  Everything’s a show for those who learn nothing but performing.  The most liberal Republican is helped by Republican-hating liberals.  Each side is certain of exactly one thing, namely that the other side sucks.  For once, they’re right.

Campers smashing campuses love electing Republicans as much as they do Hamas.  

Bitching about genocide while endorsing a terror squad is merely a prominent recent blatant hypocrisy.  Throwing a tantrum while they’re at it is a gift to opponents who just need to respond with shaking heads.  Kamala Harris promises to forgive repayment of busted desks.

Empty shelves and streets emphasize the value of space.  Who needs things and people?  Democrats help simplify your life.  Of course, you didn’t request assistance, but imposing awesomeness is their gift to humans too unenlightened to know what’s good for them.  Criminals take what they please to curtail minimalism.

It’s not like he’ll fix it.  This is Donald Trump we’re discussing.  We have the example of his whole frigging term and every dang moment of his miserable career leading up to it.  Pretending he was a business titan was perfect practice for pretending to make America whole.  The true alpha and embodiment of dominant success was thwarted by meanie Democrats and establishment Republicans, but that was just a practice term.

Committed cultist still believe their golden savior will personally stand guard over the border.  That whole thing where he’ll tell his dupes whatever they want to hear apparently still works.  It suckers his foes, too.  The last person to take seriously is the first person to exploit those who fall for it.

This year is 1968 on meth.  The ungratefully useless kick whatever they can to further their goal of loving productivity.  America-loathing lunatics displaying their ideology by smashing as much of the country as possible.  To them, it’s productivity.  A free nation ingrates loathe is only saved by their ineptitude.

Deciding to flaunt just how much they despise the place where they’re blessed to live is the sophisticated approach.  A cushy existence despite contributing exactly nothing spurs ironic resentment.  Getting everything yet hating all sounds like a certain presidential candidate.  Enemies who share similar personalities will be the plot of the next Batman movie, too.

Nixon was a piker compared to a wholesale condemner.  The general sense Dick opposed hippie dreck was his greatest electoral asset.  An opportunity based in the shameful behavior of unrestrained leftism shows history is out of ideas like Hollywood.

Can you believe liberals can’t control themselves?  This is very strange.  Outbursts resulting from their histrionic ideology taking control of their overwrought emotions are surely novel.

Primordial politics are devolving.  Scientists don’t have to theorize about something happening as we watch.  Warring factions share mutual instincts to loathe everyone not from their tribe.  One side makes a show of standing in front of an American flag if you can’t tell them apart.

The erstwhile television steak pitchman spent his entire cursed charmed existence getting helped by enemies.  The legion sworn to stopping Trump inevitably overreacts to his overreactions.  Yelling even louder will surely make him look like the crazy one just like claiming the person who couldn’t make money off owning Atlantic City roulette wheels dreams of imposing the Fourth Reich.  A histrionic-off is a loss for opponents of drama queens.

Blessing the human who least deserves it is this year’s joke.  The universe comes up with an annual comedy theme that’d be funny for those not enduring it.  Self-styled comic book heroes need a villain to justify their existences.  Raging like unhinged lunatics about white supremacy that nobody else can see doesn’t quite rise to the level of a superpower.

A big-spending autocrat is a consolation prize for Democrats.  Trump would’ve been chosen by his former party if they were capable of scheming successfully.  The best argument against the conspiracy theory is that there’s no way a party which spends an increasingly unfathomable borrowed sum to fix the economy would be capable of planning ahead.

Liberal values with conservative rhetoric is way worse in practice than the other way around.  Ranting about horrid Democrats doesn’t reduce moronic spending on our behalf by a weak strongman.  Pretending to loathe him as part of the theater would be funnier if the stage weren’t our country.

Democrats should calm down no matter how unlikely that seems possible.  Government’s enthusiasts are going to get much of what they want.  Anyone capable of mathematics knows Social Security’s going to continue to consume the nation, which is not as reassuring as hoped.  At least we can not admire a border wall which somehow didn’t get finished by the ultimate alpha male and real estate tycoon.

Trump doesn’t need to provide any sort of uplifting plan.  That’s a relief for the person most incapable of generating one.  A hindsight specialist can merely gesture at all the rubble Joe Biden’s created.  Rebuilding it into something useful will surely follow.

Being negative about negativity is Trump’s gift, if that counts.  The prototypical scowler doesn’t have to offer anything uplifting when we’ve been lifted so far downward.  But I suspect conditions wouldn’t improve upon his selection based on freaking enduring his term.  We already tried this, as everyone seems to have forgotten.  The Twilight Zone reboot curses us to relive something nobody else remembers.  Failing to recognize patterns brings the good and bad news of controlling our own fates.  They’ll blame each other.

Using Generative AI to come up with a Podcast Name

In a previous post, I talked about how we used Generative AI tools to create a logo we liked. All that remained to get our podcast started was a good name and spooky theme music.

For ideas, we turned to OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which has accumulated over 100 million users* in the past few months and has a free-to-use version. I also tried out WriteSonic, which gives you 10,000 free “words” to use with their ChatSonic bot. ChatSonic also claims to be powered by Google Search and can generate real-time content, where this version of ChatGPT was trained only on data up to the year 2021.

I’ll start with ChatSonic. At first, I fed it a simpler prompt just to see how it would respond:

As we mentioned on the intro episode of the pod, we didn’t think “Ghoulfriends” was that bad! But there was a problem: we didn’t prompt it to output names of podcasts that don’t already exist. So, it didn’t tell us that there were already a number of podcasts with some variation of “Ghoulfriends” in their names. It also made a bunch of assumptions, for example - that we’re looking to come off as “lighthearted and fun.” Did it associate these descriptions with “women” or “millennials”? There might be data from its training that suggests that these groups want to be perceived this way. Or did it assume that these traits would be beneficial for any podcast, like “appealing to a wide audience”? This seemed to ignore part of the prompt that we did give it, that this was a podcast about horror movies, which implies a niche audience.

As for “Terror & Tequila” I have no idea where it was going. First of all, it sounds like a podcast about cocktail pairings for scary movies. Also, “…represent the opposing viewpoints of the hosts” suggests that if you hate horror movies, you must love… fun? Is comedy the opposite of horror? It’s clear that ChatSonic has never seen a horror movie. The last part is bizarro too: “the name suggests a party atmosphere.” Like, why?? Millennial women looooooove to party and do tequila shots. I gave it some generic feedback:

Not great output, and the explanations were shorter as my prompts got shorter. Also, sarcastic apology? It was all like “soooooo sorry my answers weren't cool enough for you” and called me a bitch, pretty much. Whatever! And “Nightmare Avenue” basically only considered the “horror” aspect and ignored all of the other details of each prompt. Lazy! I pointed this out:

Less passive-aggressive apology, at least! Alot of millennial pop-culture “girly” tropes here, like calling each other “queen” and being in a “girl gang.” I’m least offended by “Horror Honeys” because maybe it thinks we’re sweet. “Blood Babes” sounds like it's probably some kind of sex kink or fetish. It sure loves alliteration too. We really fucked up by not going with “Blood Babe Final Gore Girl Gang of NYC,” honestly.

Ok, so, with ChatGPT I input longer, more detailed prompts for the most part:

Ah yes, that’s what “Sex and the City” was missing! I’m glad it concluded that “horror movies are all about screams” - now we can stop our research and write a script where everyone screams at each other and then goes out for cosmos. As the kids say, it’s giving “humorous and sarcastic tone”. Maybe it needs more info? Let’s throw chaos into the mix and see what it thinks “sassy” means:

There you have it - they both came up with the same name. ChatSonic arrived at it from “cool or edgy”, ChatGPT from “sassy and sarcastic,” but they both got to "Scream Queens of NYC." I thought it was interesting that ChatGPT hallucinated that we went to high school in Queens - it responded so matter-of-factly! “Horror High: Bronx Tales” has a “catchy ring to it”?? Maybe we can use it for when we tell our inevitable “funny or ironic stories” on the pod. 

I tried a few iterations where I gave it specific words to work with. For example, include "slice" in the name. But it was becoming increasingly evident that the pun aspect was the issue. Finally, I gave it this prompt for kicks:

Umm, yes - I will now refer to men in NYC as “Gotham Ghouls”. “Midnight Massacre” might be a good name for, like, a metal band - adding that one to my Notes app. It's interesting how there's a gender association with that phrase, though, it seems neutral to me. Probably because men be massacre-ing IRL, I guess. “Horror in the City” sounds like a dating podcast, amirite.

Anyway, overall, I preferred using ChatGPT. It provided more relevant answers after refining prompts, better ”understood” descriptive words, and the free version seems pretty robust. ChatSonic seemed to have limited access to data (or different types of data), gave lazy answers at times, and isn't free to use for further experimentation.

Although we didn’t go with any of their suggestions, both were good brainstorming and ideation tools. From this exercise, we realized that most horror puns were mad corny. We also realized that the complexities of our POV and the overall vibe we were aiming for were challenging to articulate, and certainly too tough for either program to predict since it doesn’t already exist in their training data. This inspired us to get down to the bare bones (ha!) of what we’re trying to achieve with our podcast: figure out if something is mad scary or not. And voila - we had our name.

Also, again, a takeaway here is to be as specific as possible with prompting, or try giving it examples to get closer to what you’re looking for. Or, go completely opposite and try a prompt out-of-left-field to see if the results are interesting. I found it great for spitballing and getting our creative juices flowing. Just remember that it can’t generate anything entirely “new”, has no taste, and hasn’t gone through all the necessary childhood and lifetime trauma to be actually funny. 

*HBR IdeaCast podcast: "How Generative AI Changes Productivity"

[ghostflowerhotpotch]

Okay, let me start this conversation by saying that if black and or/latine people see Gwen's behavior and are exasperated/angry because they had similar experiences or worse with white girls, I feel they are valid to be exasperated or just outright angry; especially if these people are black teens.

That being said, this is also a big part of the reason Peter B's situation makes me even angrier.

Gwen fucked up, I am not going to deny that with you, mostly because that's her arc. Gwen's entire character story is about how she keeps secrets that keep imploding her life. Is not just with Miles she fumbles the bag.

It meant keeping her distance from Miles in the first movie, even if she clearly liked his company. It meant she literally had her best friend dying in her arms and even then refused to be vulnerable until he literally dies. She ends up doing such a web of lies that instead of telling her dad about being Spider-woman on her own terms, she does it after being trapped into a corner; and it makes the situation all the worse.

Is not that I think Gwen doesn't fuck up with Miles, in fact she fucks up with most people in her life. I normally don't go in-depth about her mistakes 1) I am old enough that I can't see a traumatized teen take the dumbest decisions and not feel bad for her, and 2) I had seen enough people say from real criticism to calling her bitch, so at this point, I don't feel the inclinations to want to be part of that conversation.

And again, you, and anyone else are free to feel how they feel about Gwen; but I personally can't be too mad at her given the circumstances. I feel there is a difference between white girls who literally don't realize their privilege to deadass weaponize their victimhood status and pretend they did nothing wrong (and this goes for other white girls in media,) vs the girl that if she steps out of line, would be thrown into a world where as far as she is aware, is either be a homeless fugitive of prison.

I am too keenly aware of the feeling of "behave or you are fucked" to feel too angry at Gwen.

Peter, on the other hand, makes me angry because he claims to love Miles, to be his mentor, and want the best for him, yet she does much less for Miles and refuses to see things at his level. To not mention reinforcing a dangerous idealogy that is fucking nonsense.

I did end up doing that long ass Analysis of Peter B (It's somehow 5k because I can't be brief for the life of me,) and how good intentions mean nothing in the face of real harm (aka the canon theory is dumb as fuck and whatever happens next Peter B is complicit in it.)

I will not ask you to read it because I don't believe fandom should involve homework, so I will say the clip notes version:

Peter B's "adult" conversation just makes me angrier because he tries to justify some backward theory as the reason why Miles should suffer, refuses to listen to Miles's pain, and also tries to claim to be a good mentor (after insisting he taught him something HE DIDN'T after seeing Miles be manhandled by his "friend.")

That's really a big part of the reason I am frustrated; Gwen's mistakes are meant to be treated seriously, and she is going to need to work to get Miles to forgive her, even if in real life it would be realistic for him not to (because let's face it this is a movie and they are not going to have Miles completely cut Gwen out of his life.) Yet Peter B's mistakes and gross comments (because saying "you need to suffer" when he is already out to get his happy life is gross,) can be chalked off to "funny mentor figure behavior."

I will also go on a limb and say you may have told all of this to the wrong person because as much as I try to be neutral in my analysis, I had admitted in the past I have issues not losing my shit with adults (especially in charge of children,) because growing up I faced a lot of abuse, including from adults who claim to have my best interest at heart.

So while I think is totally valid to be mad at Gwen as a black person because there are definitely too many white girls who pretend the world is out to get them while weaponizing their status in their favor; I accepted part of me will never be able to keep my cool about adults who claim to care about the teen/kid they have in charge yet fuck up, regardless if "they are doing what they think is right," because that's an excuse used against why I shouldn't be angry with certain people for traumatizing me so badly in some aspects I can't never recover, just learn how to cope with it.

The thing about Spiderverse fandom is that we're debating if Miles should forgive Gwen and did she have a good reason not to take his side and everyone's making these analyses and stuff but no one cares about Peter B no one is asking if he should be forgiven or whatever mf is just there. Gwen and Miles get this major love drama and Gwen gets a full character arc and she's so fleshed out and Peter he just has a baby and no one's asking why he didn't visit Miles (he had a happy life to come back to unlike Gwen in case he gets kicked out) and then he joins the kids in the end of the movie just bc. Dude is just....there...and he has a baby. And that's all.

what disney movies i’d make the danny bunch watch with me

me: soph you have so many good, promising wips in your drafts!! finish those first!! also me: im sad and tired and i just buried two of my grandparents i need this🤍🤍 lol i apologize in advance and im so sorry i haven’t come out with much, it’s been a long 2 weeks

zemo: WE’RE WATCHING FROZEN 2. FOR WHAT REASON? IDK I JUST LOVE THAT MOVIE AND WANT TO EXPERIENCE IT WITH HIM. i think zemo would recognize it’s absolutely phenomenal and breathtaking cinematography like i do because ✨he’s an observant and appreciative babe✨ also what if he can translate “all is found” into like, sokovian?🥺🥺 and it’s probably funny because he probably gets into the habit of humming it and one day sam hears him and is like “…is that frozen 2?” and zemo’s like “…maybe it is…” and sam would just kinda look at him and nod and just move on. but yes im watching frozen 2 with zemo (also side note sam is probably one of those people who thinks frozen 1 is better and i would definitely work my ass off to convince him otherwise)

alex kerner: treasure planet treasure planet treasure planet. i mean come on- he’s got that whole space obsession thing going on and plus alex has got MAJOR jim vibes. i think he would enjoy that movie (even though he would probably claim he doesn’t) but like im sure on the inside he wishes/imagines he’s jim and is doing all the space stuff that happens in the movie. you’d probably come home one day to him watching it with paula and you’d be like “hm, thought you didn’t like this movie that much?” and he’d be like “well i mean… i-it’s a kid’s movie, so…”

niki lauda: i know what you’re thinking; cars. nope. i absolutely refuse. this man will be watching luca with and will be respectfully keeping his mouth shut the entire time. there will be no disrespect coming out of that mouth during the course of the movie, and he will let me soak his shirt in tears at the end when im sobbing against his chest. he’d probably ask questions like “why didn’t the boy just run away sooner? it seems easy enough” or like, critique the vespa driving abilities of children (“niki these are fake children, calm down”), but he would probably like it on the inside and would warm up to it the more he watches it

jan weingartner: okay we’re watching the emperor’s new groove. it’s a classic and it’s just really funny, and the easiest for you to somehow relate to capitalism for him when he asks what the point of watching this movie is. “not that i don’t love watching movies with you, but remind me what significance this movie has to capitalism?” “well… like,,, uh,,- kuzco like, wants to move pacha and his family and their village out so he can build his summer home, and that’s like, really crappy. and plus he like, is a bitch to everyone in his kingdom or whatever, so…” “that was a major stretch, but you’re lucky this movie is cute i guess”

laszlo kreisler: I’D MAKE THIS BITCH WATCH COCO WITH ME. HANDS DOWN. i think he would think the songs and the representation of the culture are beautiful, and tbh he’d probably cry just as much as all of us did when we watched it for the first time (and im assuming y’all cried too because if you didn’t then im gonna have to question your character). i think considering everything he deals with, having a movie like this to go to would almost like, give him comfort because even though not everyone celebrates dia day los muertos or believes that that’s where people go in the afterlife, it’s something for him to kinda cling on to? anyway, this man is a coco bitch and i will accept no arguments

andrea marowski: tangled for this baby. i think he would like the absolutely BEAUTIFUL music, and would like the plot and the characters. i think “i see the light” would make him cry and i think he’d learn “the kingdom dance” on violin because uhm hello it’s beautiful? i think that movie makes that baby’s serotonin boost because, i think he’s like a rapunzel variant almost. he gives me her vibes. they both just have hearts of gold and i think he would love watching that movie and it would become a comfort movie for him

What are your Stone Ocean lukewarm-hot takes?

My Stone Ocean Takes™ now that it has been confirmed (pog) are as follows

-FF is the best character. I always go on the claim that “nothing is objective”. I betray this philosophy because I speak nothing but the truth in this statement

-The stupid shit in Stone Ocean is what makes it great. Especially The Snails

-Dolly Parton should make a cameo in some way

-Literally the best part about the anime is that they’re going to have to deal with the copyright nightmare that is Bohemian Rhapsody and the impact of the arc is going to solely depend on it

-I want them to remind everyone all the damn time that it takes place in Florida because it’s so fitting.

-If they dare to tone down Dio’s sexiness then the entire anime will be a failure.

-Anasui (I have no hot takes on Anasui, but saying their name alone is enough to be a hot take)

-Stone Ocean Has Too Much Piss

-Yo Yo Ma Isn’t That Bad You Guys Are Just Mean

-I feel like there’s a phenomenon in fandom where something bland is made epic through the veil of irony. Usually because it’s chosen as the Crown Jewel of dullness, a statement which is an oxymoron itself. But through being so dull, it manages to magically loop back around to becoming awesome just because it’s so Aggressively Boring. Anyway, that So Cool It’s Awesome phenomenon is Dragon Dream and I love it for that.

-Stone Ocean has so many Ideas that it throws at you that watching anime only viewers react to it is going to be more of a treat than it was for any other arc

-Pucci is a bitch and I could beat him up

-I predict anime is going to have a montage of Dio’s kids and there’s gonna be a small mention of Giorno not being there. And it’s going to be funny.

-Once again, FF is the best character. I am saying this again on the offchance you forgot this indisputable fact.

-Ermes deserves more. I don’t know what she deserves more of, but she deserves more.

-Jail House Lock was only made because Araki saw Memento and was like “yo this movie slaps” (because it does)

-Araki went to Florida and got fucked up, which led to the creation of Stone Ocean in its entirety. I have no evidence to prove it but it makes sense. Again. Snails.

-One final time before I close this post out. FF. Best fucking character in Jojo’s. This isn’t an argument. If it was it would be the equivalent of arguing against a flat-earther

"Let's get it!" Y/N squeals, claiming her spot on the middle of the couch. She was practically bouncing up and down, waiting impatiently for everyone to join her. The Dean Cave had brightened considerably since she had added a few redecorations. While Dean initially denied her, she had forced him to allow her to put up LED lights, several polaroids from her camera(they were mostly of herself smiling widely at the camera while Sam and Dean looked mildly annoyed with fake smiles. There was also a real funny one where Sam was unconscious on a hunt and Y/N decided to pose beside him), as well as posters from their favorite bands. Not to mention the added dock to the TV stand to hold her Nintendo Switch that Sam had bought her for her previous birthday. 

She supposed he regretted it now, since she was forcing him to play a game he'd never even heard of.

He entered the room first, holding a big bowl of popcorn and a soda. Dean followed close behind, Little Debbie packages hanging from his mouth since his arms were occupied with pillows from their bedrooms and a pack of beers for himself. Jack was the only one to come empty handed. He happily took the spot beside Y/N, waving merrily as Castiel also appeared with two sodas(both of them for Beth because he was just so considerate), taking the spot on her other side.

"I'll give this an hour before we switch to movie night, Y/N," Dean warned as he occupied his armchair, which was to the left of the couch. She had discovered this old thing at a garage sale. It had been a rather stressful day because Dean had refused to strap it to Baby and they had to hound what little friends they had for a truck. Since most of their friends were dead, Y/N had hot wired one outside of a bar and returned it before the drunk redneck inside could notice it had even left. She was sure the dent in the bed was there before they put the couch on it. Sam had not been happy about that.

Sam took his own armchair, which was to the right of the couch. 

"What is it, again?" he asked curiously. 

"Is the only thing in the media you've ever heard Facebook? You've seriously never heard of Mario Kart?" Y/N asked, happily accepting one of the sodas from Castiel. "Dad really did a number on us. I was introduced to this through Charlie." She got up to grab the number of controllers necessary for four. Jack was eager to try the game, but he was always open to trying new things, something Y/N could appreciate.

After connecting them to the Switch, she handed them out to her brothers along with Jack before returning to her spot on the couch between the angel and nephilim. 

"If I remember correctly from what you've told me, it's a racing game, right?" Castiel asked.

"Exactly, except with a few quirks to make it interesting. Like, um...I could throw a shell and hit one of them and vice versa. Or a banana peel. I'll give them a trial run before we actually get into it. Are you sure you don't want to try it, Cas?"

Castiel shook his head. "I have seen how you play with Charlie, and I don't want to be on the receiving end of your anger. And I rather like watching you in your element."

Y/N smiled, blushing, before playfully pushing him. 

"I need to get drunk to stomach this," Dean said, offended as he popped one of the beers open and took a gulp. "Keep the PDA to a minimum guys, you've got a kid next to you. Alright, what buttons do I push to hit Sam?"

"What the hell?" Sam scoffed. 

"What?"

"We haven't even started and you're gunnin' for me?"

"Uh, yeah!" 

"Alright, alright! First we gotta pick our player," Y/N mediated, pressing the buttons to get them to the screen full of Mario players. "I already got mine." She moved her icon until it landed on Wendy, before selecting her. "Obviously the best character, hands down."

The three boys maneuvered their icons over different characters, for some reason taking it a little too seriously on who they would choose. Sam selected his first. 

"Luigi?" Dean scoffed.

"You got a problem?" Sam asked. 

"No, but...why Luigi?"

"Who cares, I just chose him."

"You have to have a reason, man." Dean shook his head, before selecting his own. 

"Why'd you choose Bowser, then?"

"Because he's a badass. And he'd beat the holy hell out of Luigi if the games lost their PG rating," Dean shrugged.

Jack hummed thoughtfully, still scrolling. "I choose him!" 

He selected Toad. 

"Why him, Jack?" she asked. 

"I like his hat."

Y/N snorted, but it was a valid enough answer. Once everyone was ready, she selected the settings for the game and then decided to use the time to explain to them how the controls worked and anything else they were curious about. After a few trial races, they were ready for the real thing. Castiel was sitting patiently, his hands on his lap. 

"You assholes are going down," Dean declared, bringing his remote closer to him. 

"So much for being appropriate in front of the kid," Y/N sneered, but she was just as ready.

She set the game to go through ten races with a random select for the roads. 

And with that, they were off.

"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?" Dean yelled, nearly jumping to his feet. His first empty beer bottle slide across the floor from his rapid movement. "I DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH IT! I DIDN'T GO NEAR THE GODDAMN PEEL!"

"That might've been mine," Sam stated, smugly. "But Bowser also takes up half the road, so avoiding it was probably impossible anyway."

Dean squinted. "You callin' me fat, Sammy?"

Sam shrugged. "Luigi's doing just fine."

Y/N hid her smile as she hit her own item, snatching that smile right from Sam's face.

"Why did you do that?" he asked, incredulous, the red shell sending Luigi off the edge of the map. 

"You got in my way!" Y/N sang. 

It only seemed to get worse from there. What was supposed to be an hour of playing turned into four with the bowl of popcorn thrown across the room at Dean when he had decided to hit Sam three times with three separate shells before snagging first place and doing a lewd dance as a way to declare his victory. Y/N's hair had bristled up, becoming bushier almost as though it were alive. Her right eye was twitching, and her hands were cramping by now. 

Jack, however, was having a good time. He has gotten last place the entire time, but he was still having fun, and that's what truly mattered.

Castiel, on the other hand, seemed to be on the verge of a panic attack, not knowing whose side he should take because all three Winchester siblings were completely out of their minds, including Y/N.

Finally, it was the last race. Everyone's nerves were shot. Sam's hair seemed even more raggedy than Y/N's, and his shirt was stained with soda because Dean decided to take vengeance by chucking his pillow at him when Sam was taking a big gulp. They had to pause the game for several minutes while Sam fought for his life coughing and wheezing because the soda went down the wrong pipe.

"I'm afraid I must at least attempt to deter you guys from participating in another race. There aren't any weapons in the Dean Cave, but I'm sure you three will find a way to kill each other," Castiel said, worried. "Jack, are you okay?"

Jack nodded enthusiastically. "I'm having fun!"

"I will let it be known if I lose, someone is dying tonight. I will call Billie to fix it, but someone has to die tonight if I lose," Y/N threatened. 

"Good luck with that, I'm kicking all of your asses, and you can kiss mine when it crosses the finish line," Dean said.

"I don't even care if I win, as long as you guys lose. And I'll make sure it happens." Sam jeered. 

With that, the race began. Aside from Jack and Castiel, everyone was bloodthirsty. Surely no matter who won, someone was gonna be pissed off. Castiel was making a mental note to grab Jack as soon as possible and escort him out of the room while the siblings brawled. 

"YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Y/N shouted, jumping to her feet. "WHO DID IT! WHO DID IT?"

"I did!" Sam happily announced, moving to and fro with the turn of his controller, as though he were in the game himself. 

"I'm gonna get you, Sam," Y/N snarled, pressing hard on the buttons, trying her best to catch up to her brother, collecting any items she came across, but none of them were good enough, so she kept using them without thinking until she heard Dean curse and also jump to his feet. 

"THAT WAS ME, JACKASS!" he yelled, completely distraught. "I didn't even do anything this time!"

"You probably deserved it anyway!" Sam shrugged, continuing to maneuver through the AIs to get to the front. 

By that time, Dean and Y/N had caught up, and with all they had, they used their items to completely screw each other over up until every kart had passed them. In the end, they were the bottom three with Sam first, Y/N second, and Dean in dead last. And for a moment there after, nobody said anything. They were completely beside themselves in utter shock at what just occurred. 

"What just happened?" Y/N asked, deflating considerably. 

"We lost..." Sam mumbled. 

"Screw you guys, I lost overall!" Dean scoffed.

"I won!" Jack suddenly cheered, leaping to his feet and jumping up and down. "I won!"

"You what?" Y/N asked, shocked as her eyes trailed to the top. Sure enough, Toad was in first place. "You're kidding!"

"I can't believe I won!" Jack said, smiling as he high-fived a proud Castiel.

"I want a rematch," Dean commanded, sitting back down and retrieving his controller. 

"Yeah, me, too!" Sam agreed. 

"I'm down!" Y/N eagerly agreed, about to grab hers when Castiel snatched it. He went around the room, taking up all the controllers.

"Given that it's five in the morning, and just a couple moments ago you three were ready to quite literally rip each other's throats out, I'm going to recommend everyone get up and get to bed instead," he instructed curtly. "I think we should postpone a future night of games indefinitely, at least for a little while until you three can learn to control yourselves."

"What-but-you can't-" Y/N sputtered.

"Quite literally, I can shut off whatever is necessary so you can never play the game again with just a snap of my fingers," Castiel warned. "Shower and get some sleep. Jody already told us she needed to discuss something at noon tomorrow, and it would be rude if we were tardy. C'mon, let's go!"

With a grumble, everyone got up and cleaned their mess, ignoring each other vehemently as they walked out. Except for Jack; he was practically skipping. 

There was another good thing about tonight that he knew about. He was the one that triggered the lightning item that really stumped the three siblings and put them at the bottom three.
