the doctor who writers were super lucky they picked britney spears toxic for the “traditional earth ballad” joke because the song was only 2 years old then, they couldn’t have known it would be that iconic and timeless. they could so easily have picked a more forgettable and dated chart hit from 2003

i remember when daleks in manhattan first came out and people were acting like it was the worst thing to ever happen to doctor who, going mad about it on the forums to the point where the writer was considering quitting writing altogether because of the backlash
and i’m like. it’s an episode of doctor who with humanoid daleks turning people into pig men and also there’s a musical number. this is great are you kidding me at least it’s not boring.

i don't think the 13th doctor era got enough mileage out of Graham being mistaken for the Doctor frankly

When I worked at the sex shop we had this one customer. He was literally on the interview questions because we had to deal with him several times a week. He worked at the mall and we’d see him when we went in to go to the movies or grab lunch.
He’d always come in wearing a different wolf shirt. They’d be superimposed over the moon or running in packs. I think I only saw him in a non wolf shirt once when he came in wearing his work uniform, having apparently such a desperate need for more porn that he needed to come over on his lunch break.
We’d only get new shipments of DVDs once every other month, so the selection got pretty picked over. By him. Because he was the main purveyor of our movies.
We always ran a sale where when you bought two movies you’d get a third one for free. This man never, ever took the free movie. If there wasn’t one he liked right then he’d just buy two and leave. But then he’d come back later in the week and buy more, even though it was all the same stuff.
He'd wax eloquently to us about the deterioration of the porn industry and if you weren't careful you could be trapped for forty minutes or more listening to him go on about how repulsive fake boobs were. It's not that I disagreed, but I had other things I needed to be doing.
I transferred into that store from one further south. So I instead of answering all the typical interview questions the manager and I just had an informal chat. But I glanced down at the interview sheet she had printed and read, "What would you do if a man in a wolf moon shirt came up to you and asked your opinion on boob jobs?"
I laughed and when I looked back at her she slowly shook her head, no. That's not a joke. It took three days for that exact scenario to occur.

I’m going to be starting a new job soon and in my talk with HR she went “Computer tech? That means you’ll be with the boys.”
Turns out, I’m gonna be the only woman in that department. Not surprising on it’s own, but so far I’ve met three of “the boys”.
They’re all huge.

The biggest secret I discovered about writing, and you can see the quality jump between early Curse Words and late Curse Words/TTOU based almost entirely on this, is that you can just go to the next thing. Very early on I used to be all "ok but we have to properly bridge and pace things, we can't jump from the important classroom scene to the important beach scene" yes you can. If nothing interesting or relevant is happening between those two things you can just say "ten minutes later, at the beach" and keep going. If the bridge between them is boring you, it's also gonna bore the audience, and you don't have to write it. You can jump straight to the next interesting or important part and so long as you don't actually jump over any important parts it's fine. The audience wants to get straight to the next thing too.

I loved this post just because all the comments flipped between sincere appreciation and mockery of the birds

You’re a regular office worker born with the ability to “see” how dangerous a person is with a number scale of 1-10 above their heads. A toddler would be a 1, while a skilled soldier with a firearm may score a 7. Today, you notice the reserved new guy at the office measures a 10.
