Every time I see the phrase "Chicago Pope" I have a solid three seconds where I'm just thinking "these NBC primetime dramas are getting out of control"

The Doctor needs their companions to stop them as much as the Master needs the Doctor to stop them. There’s parallels there. I wonder if Koschei used to be Theta’s conscience.

I lovee dvd episode menus soo much… especially these ones that are kinda like an I Spy.

Somewhere some graphic designer made a little interactive picture with perspective warped text for each episode just to make me smile :)

when me and my boyfriend make meals we have a tradition of sending each other unappetising off-centre photographs of them in poor lighting. we call this "wikipedia food".

you want to be romantically attracted to someone? the thing that killed romeo and juliet?

Out here dreaming up posts that are only funny if you are familiar with the plot of the Odyssey, the classic 1870 sci-fi novel Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, the 2003 film Finding Nemo and also know the Latin word for "no one".

Fortunately this is tumblr and everyone loves stupidly niche jokes. Here is my vision:

The Romans really went off with 'nisi fallor'. All the English online equivalents simply do not compare.

'if I remember correctly' -> wordy, stupid, too long

'as far as I know' -> sounds bad, clunky, can't say it quickly

'afaik' -> unpronounceable, weird looking

'iirc' -> gibberish, incomprehensible, too many i's

'nisi fallor' -> good length, easy & fun to say, can be thrown in anywhere quickly, literally 'unless I am deceiving myself' which is sick

[shinybridge]

The best part about knowing Latin plurals is using them incorrectly on purpose and seeing if anyone who knows why you're full of shit is within earshot. Insist that the plural of of "waitress" is "waitrices". You know you want to.

Doctor Who but only the Master saying "My dear Doctor"
