one of my favorite moments of my mom is when i made her play undertale in 2021 on the switch and when she fought mettaton for the essay question “what do you like most about mettaton” she (agonizingly slow with the on screen keyboard) typed out “his sparkling wit”

btw this is all under the impression this is humanstuck!

jade probably has tons of friends but some might be superficial because she's smart and they can cheat off her. but at the same time, due to previous isolated island life, i think she's all for getting to know more and more people! obviously her closeness doesn't extend past the beta kids but shes still bright eyed and bushy tailed about the whole ordeal. despite her cheerfulness, her social skills aren't the best -- it's out of sheer luck that as many people flock to her as they do, mostly for her joyous personality. i think, compared to the rest of her friend group, she's the most openly social.

rose... i'm not sure. i gotta think about her

ive seen people make this point in the past but i figured id put my spin on it.

john being the nerd loser and dave being the cool popular kid. makes ZERO sense. to me at least

i dont exactly think john would have people DROOLING over him but. well socialized, well kept kid. friendly, a little strange, but knows how to hold a conversation. despite his nerdish specs and teeth desperately in need of braces, he's probably visually as much as a dork as the next person. struggles in school as much as the average 13 year old. good home life, probably the kid that everyone is excited for their birthday because his dad brings in enough cupcakes to feed the entire school. like i said, he's not EXCEPTIONALLY popular, but he wouldn't go unnoticed and would certainly have a small close-knit group of friends and would be tolerable in group projects.

dave. unsocialized, awkward, defensive and lewd. too into math to be cool but not smart enough in other classes to be a nerd. talks a lot, TOO much, making references and jokes that go over peoples heads and make others uncomfortable. odd hobbies. dead things in jars? friends with crows? rapping? swordfighting? he doesn't fall in line, doesn't fit the expectation. maybe his hobbies could pique some people's interests, but that's assuming they even choose to talk to him in the first place. i imagine he's made horrible first impressions with most people in school and doesn't go outside enough to meet anyone OUT of school. i don't exactly think he's "lame" enough to get bullied or anything like that but people most certainly avoid talking to him and leave him out of groups and stuff. people dread getting stuck in a group project with him because they know he's gonna be muttering epic new rap lyrics to himself in the middle of dissecting a frog and flaying its organs.

that's kinda all i think about it. i guess i just dont like seeing them fall into such easy cliches in fics when it would be much more interesting and beneficial to really LOOK into their characters before making the decision as of where 2 place them.

My Pokemon head canon is that if you were holding an Aron and she wanted to go down she would do the little cat thing where they wiggle until they leap out of your arms gracefully except Aron is made mostly out of solid steel and would land with the impact tungsten cube, dent the floor, cause permanent structural damage to the foundation, and then stand up and happily trot along like she didn't do anything

I've been doing a lot of thinking about my family and how I was treated as a child, and honestly, my father has never seemed more amazing in my eyes.

I used to love Luigi(Mario's brother) when I was little. Like, he was my favorite character ever, and I had multiple plushies of him. Didn't give a fuck about Mario, vaguely tolerated Peach, but I loved Luigi.

On my first day of kindergarten, my dad gave me the number for his work phone and said it was Luigi's phone number. "If anything happens at school, call Luigi."And not even twenty minutes into my first day, I was having a panic attack. So I went down to the principal's office and called "Luigi."

Now, at the time, my father was in a meeting with his manager and his supervisor, along with most of his coworkers. And when I called, he picked up before he even left the room.

And he put on a very awful Italian accent and said, "Itsa me, Luigi! Whatsa the matter?"In front of his boss and coworkers. Without telling them what was going on. So they were absolutely bewildered, and he carried on like they didn't even exist. He only explained what was happening after I had calmed down and hung up, to which most of them responded with "Aww, cute."

I continued to call him whenever I got upset at school, and eventually his coworkers got in on it. I distinctly remember one of them impersonating Toad. I don't know why I'm telling you this, I just thought it might make you smile :)

this is so delightful I love your Luigi dad

Basic life stuff on Father’s Day your dad may have never taught you

Men’s pants often have what’s called vanity sizing so a 32 inch waist between different brands is actually different sometimes. It’s still a good idea to try the pants on before you buy them.

A flathead screwdriver can be used on a Phillips head screw.

It’s always morally correct to simply walk away from a salesman. You don’t need to buy a mattress to be polite. Just leave. Walk away. Skedaddle.

A complete meal has fat, protein, carbs, and some kind of fruit or vegetable. A snack should have carbs and protein. That’s how you stay full for longer and get your vitamins. It’s really that simple.

Dumpster diving is legal in many countries including the US, Canada, and Australia but trespassing and property damage are illegal. If you are allowed to be in an area and can access the trash without breaking anything you can just take stuff

You should be thinking about retirement savings even in your 20s and 30s. Get a mutual fund.

If you go gambling, only spend cash and pull out exactly as much money as you’re willing to lose from the atm. Never use a credit card in a casino if you can avoid it.

You can add a layer of seasoning to a cast iron skillet right on the stove. You don’t actually have to put it in the oven every time.

To build a fire, build a little pile of kindling first with plenty of air under it. This can be sticks or leftover wood from the hardware store. Doesn’t matter. Then light some newspaper or leaves under it. This’ll help the kindling catch on fire. Then you can add a log to it. The log needs a long exposure to flames before it catches on fire.

Fresh cut wood needs to dry out for several months before it’ll work as either building material or firewood. Several years is even better.

Flower delivery for simple bouquets costs less than you think it does and makes a nice gift for people who are hard to shop for

University libraries often let the general public get a card to check things out from them for a yearly fee. This is useful to know if you’re ever doing some specific research.

To make hard boiled eggs easier to peel boil them with just barely enough to cover and let a lot of the water burn off. Then shock them in an ice bath when they’re done.

If you or your pets end up killing a venemous snake by accident or in self defense you should bury the head so that no animals get poisoned by it because the fangs can still distribute venom

Tall people who visit your house can see the tops of your cabinets and bookshelves. Clean accordingly if you don’t want people to see dust.

Annuals are plants that will die after one year and perennials are plants that live for multiple years

If you feel gross and like your life sucks maybe try getting a haircut

I do actually care marginally about the guy in that reddit screenshot who voted for Trump and is now worried that he might lose his medicaid funding because I did not fucking stutter when I said healthcare is a human right but the people losing their internships and job offers to the hiring freeze are straight up hilarious.
