it's been pointed out that stan saying "please" to mabel in nwhs is more hard hitting when you remember he learns to use that word in boss mabel, but i also find it amusing that bill was also able to see both of these incidents (via the giftshop carpet and the portal) and his last resort (before realising he has no other choice than to use the axolotl's incantation) was begging "please"

When the character who's a condensed version of the things that are Wrong With You is still a good person and deserves love and compassion

The thing about Grunkle Stan is you can't have him run just a boring or ordinary scam. He's gotta get a little creative with it. Stan's not just a con, he's a con artist. He's-

[Behind me as I talk, the audience sees Stan accidentally drop some shelled peanuts he was eating in a glass of water on a table. He hastily grabs a marker and uses it to label the cup "pee-water". He is charging $500 for it. As I continue my impassioned speech on his artistic merits he scribbles out "pee-water" and relabels it "nut-water". He has increased the price to $1500 by squeezing a 1 in there.]

It will look something like this (and will be transparent with white outline on dark backgrounds):

Feel free to spread and use these as much as you like! (and if you have ideas for other variations, let me know ✌️)

stan's throughout-the-years mirror sequence seems to imply he started wearing the girdle VERY early into his mystery shack thing and it makes me so sad

songs where two people sing at the same time and their lyrics compliment each other but theyre also saying different things and it builds up together to form the entire song. if you even care.

A time travel AU fic from Stan's perspective, where Dipper and Mabel go back in time, find Stan in his late 20's, and spend a night with him sleeping in his car....

...except at the end, it's revealed that there was no time travel. Stan is 65 years old, and in the midst of recovering his memory. The kids noticed that he wandered out to sleep in his car and decided to keep him company.

God I love looking at the survivor rule book wiki survivor fans did not disappoint in keeping track of the drama rule breaks.

The way contestants have snuck shit in?

The things contestants snuck in?

Someone snuck in ambien in a tampon.

Endurer (GF survivor au) is definitely going to have a BUNCH of this BS.

And from Stan? ESPECIALLY.

Plus David is going to be a cross between Jeff from actual survivor and Chris from Total Drama Island because I want this to be unhinged.

This fic only works if the man running the show sees someone like Stanley and goes “I’m going to call his twin without permission and GET HIM HERE.”

So some of the rules are going to be different and the rest will be broken.

Okay so I’m thinking about writing the GF survivor au I was posting about around Father’s Day. If I do should I detail it from the beginning with a whole host of OCs to be the other contestants? Like flash make ocs to flesh out Stan’s tribe or just pick a few in his tribe to cut down on it?

I should be sleeping right now but this AU idea came to me and won't leave me alone

Ok so it's the late 70s/early 80s, and Ford has just received word that Stanley is dead. Of course Ford is devastated, to say the least.

Stan left a suicide note on the dashboard of his car, addressed to Ford. Along with his final goodbyes and apologies, Stan also wrote that he wanted Ford to have the Stanleymobile. For the past decade, that car was like a piece of his soul, and he didn't want it to end up in a scrapyard (nor did he want it sent to their parents in Jersey; Pa would probably just sell it for parts).

So the car is towed to Gravity Falls. The interior of the car is apparently left untouched, and Ford is extra devastated to see plain evidence that Stanley had been living in it. No wonder the car was so important to him; it was his only home for so many years...

The car sits outside Ford's home, unused. While it's true that Ford had been needing a replacement vehicle ever since Steve devoured the last one, he couldn't bring himself to start using this vehicle. The thought of using the Stanleymobile for everyday transportation needs felt... wrong. It felt like disturbing Stanley's grave. Ford just couldn't bring himself to drive it.

But that's okay. He doesn't need to drive it, because the car can drive itself.

It can start its own engine without any keys in the ignition. It honks and flashes its headlights like it's trying to get Ford's attention. By all accounts, the vehicle has a mind and will of its own. One might even say the car is alive.

Stanley did say in his note that the car was like his soul, or that his soul was linked to it, or something to that effect.

Apparently he never left.
