in any given set, i will like the most ridiculous or surreal example. i like bright colors and shiny things. i do off-broadway theater, and think about it often. also slightly obsessed with television, music, feminism, knitting, politics. and hello kitty. she/her/hers #alpacaexpert
i vote that next year instead of reading Dracula we do a Jeeves & Wooster Book Club. those two never got the rabid tumblr shipping fandom they deserved (disqualified for the sheer technicality of being published a century too soon). we must correct this injustice
I mean, once you start we’ll be reading it forever. There are a ton of them.
Joseph’s brothers would have sold him to One Direction
And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stript Joseph out of his coat, his coat of many colours that was on him;
And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit was empty, there was no water in it.
And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a company of youths came from London with their entourages bearing black jeans, blazers and eyeliner, carrying it for the stage.
And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit is it if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood?
Come, and let us sell him to One Direction, and let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother and our flesh. And his brethren were content.
The fact that the Boston transit system has been a garbage fire for so long that our mascot is a sad little man who is literally stranded on the train until the end of time due to a fare increase. Charlie’s desiccated corpse has been riding this train since the 1940s and everyone just sort of rolls with it it this point
Back in the 40s the T installed a fare to get off the train as well as to get on, because the system has always been that broken. So a song was written about the mythical man of Charlie on the M.T.A., who doesn’t have the extra fare and becomes stuck there. Forever. Riding around in a never-ending circular nightmare because the city is corrupt and everyone else in Boston is a cheapskate who won’t lend him a goddamn nickel. Adding insult to injury his wife throws him food every day but not money, probably because she’s better off single.
The T responded by saying “to hell with it, he’s our mascot now.”
And the song has been a summer-camp staple ever since.
Oh my gods. They put him on the card.
No good can come of this. :/
What I have always wondered: why didn’t his wife hand him some change when she tossed him a sandwich?
if you picked one of the options lemme know in the tags how you heard about them (or if you have a totally different canadian band you know and want to rant about!)
last night I was walking home and I noticed that the gallery near my place that I have never seen open was having an event and I wandered in, grabbed a glass of wine, looked at the art and smiled at some people having intense conversations, and left.
