The team not communicating about their Halloween costumes AT ALL and all thinking they have a HILARIOUS one of a kind idea to dress up as Roy so all the players start filing in one at a time waiting to see the annoyed look on Roy’s face only to find out that everybody else had the same idea and Roy has to spend the entire night putting up with every single one of them trying to copy his voice and mannerisms and complaining that he sounds and acts nothing like that (which okay is true of Dani’s impression of him but a lot of them are pretty good at it)

Jamie’s impression of him annoys Roy the most and he argues against it the most, but Keeley is absolutely losing her shit laughing and refusing to pretend it isn’t accurate

Is Jamie absolutely exaggerating Roy’s age? Yes. Is he trying to exaggerate Roy’s grouchiness and accidentally landing on almost direct quotes out of him that just make Keeley laugh harder? Absolutely. And he’s been watching Roy’s mannerisms and locking them into his memory to use to make fun of him for years before he ever decided to dress up as him so his performance is the most ridiculously over the top and yet also the most accurate at the same time

so i work at this corner bakery and this absolute UNIT of a man (im talking 6'+, arms that could put me in an unbreakable headlock, and thighs that i could say unspeakable things ab) came in with a pink leather jacket and a sleek black helmet oh my god..

so obviously i complimented him (specifically on his jacket) and we made conversation blah blah cold weather blah i was freezing walking here blah blah

then as i was ringing him up he threw his jacket on the counter and said "take it if you like it that much" and i was laughing it off until i realized he wasnt joking.. so i was like no hey aha that was just a compliment yk????

he then TOSSED HIS PHONE on top of it and deadass went "then lemme get your number so you can return it later. itll be a lot colder by the time youre out."

so now im sat at home in a pink leather jacket two sizes above me after hanging up a two hour call with this guy... um... aha?

MY GOODNESS I SAID ID BE BACK IN 30 MINS BUT IT TURNED OUT LONGER, IM SORRY DARLING

FIRST AND FOREMOST: IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU MY LUV!

this made me so giddy for u omg!! he sounds like an absolute darlin, offerin his pink (!!!) leather jacket before anythin else??? my goodness!! he truly said “i have more to offer but we start w this bad boy!” (taps the jacket like that car salesman meme)

i kind of bypassed the fact that he is a biker because of the phone call aaAHHH!! it sounds like you had fun talking to him, starling 🥹🫶🏼 (thats all i ask, above everything! for u to be happy and have fun!!!)

also, i really wanted to say this since a while ago: HE WANTS YOU SOOOO BAD, PETAL

if ur comfy, may u pls give me (us) update? of course u can keep the deets a secret and we can keep this as a short anecdote but my heart is so full when we share things like this with each other teehee <33 it’s like i have a pen pal or smthn hshshshs

take care!! also, bundle up lots >:(

(esp now u have a new jacket hewhheheh)

Ooo, check out the cool guy, with the red jacket, like James Dean. Talk about a rebel without a cause.

So cool.

Of course, it's not cool for everyone who wears it.

Then again, he did manage to hook up with that hot girlfriend.

Of course, there's another famous movie jacket...

And another cartoon dork who it ripped off:

So I guess you can say the clothes don't make the man. Rather, it's the opposite - a guy will wear something practical, cause he's cool, he leads a badass life where he never knows when he'll need to rough it. A leather jacket like Jim Stark's is a better outfit for, say, a fistfight, than a three-piece suit with flared lapels. Not to mention cheaper, and lacking a tie that can be used to strangle him.

But, since people see that cool guy dressed like that, they tried to ape the style (not that I ever did that, I'm just, uh, talking about a buddy of mine...yeah, a buddy), and stores quickly catch on and hike up prices for whatever outfit's considered cool nowadays.

So, the jacket loses its practicality (after all, if it costs a fortune, people won't be wearing it to gang fights or motorcycle races), and cool people, who usually neither care about nor can afford the most fashionable togs, end up wearing something different. Like how in the eighties and nineties young guys started wearing cheap flannels from used lumberjack clothing shops.

And the cycle begins again. The rule of thumb is, if someone's trying to look cool, they probably aren't. After all, it's hip to be square.

another day of being victimized by off slaying 😭😭😭

It kills me as in I find it really funny when fics call it "a mask" when Karamatsu tries to act more confident than he feels, or even when he's upset but doesn't let it show

Its.... emotional self-control. He may not be using the skills that a psychologist would love to see for processes of emotional self-regulation (at least not obviously+it's a gag anime) but it's not unhealthy and it's not exactly masking? It's quite literally developing skills to remain functional regardless of feelings

Compare 18!Krmts to adult Karamatsu. It's obvious which of them has a higher degree of agency, self-sufficiency. They are both stressed out by the events of the movie, but where baby Karamatsu flounders, adult Karamatsu manages to act even as he has moments where he introspects. He's able to use the responsible, rational braincell when he's with Osomatsu, and when he eventually speaks up about the regrets plot he explains the situation effectively.

Shout out to both of them for having so many scenes where they simply observe the situation and think about what to do. 18Karamatsu with visible apprehension, while Karamatsu looks cooler — During the movie is likely because he already knows what'll happen but during the sick dad arch he's more detached. You can quite literally see him meditate and process his feelings on the inside.

What's going on in that head of yours, blue man?
