#COUNT OLAF

[um-respectfully-no]

asoue hit different when you were like twelve and had emotionally abusive parents but you grew up homeschooled and isolated so every adult you had access to was friends with and/or exactly like your parents so when you told them you were met with "oh that's normal" and "your mom's a really nice lady though" and you just kinda looked at the baudelaires like "fucking same though"

i think if the Baudelaire children had pretended to be fooled by one of Olaf's disguises immediately he would have been so thrown he would have outed himself on the spot

to be fair to count olaf’s ridiculous cover names, he does come from a universe where ‘lemony snicket’ is just something you can name a baby

count olaf? more like CUNT olaf

Fun fact: The Baudelaire kids were able to respect Count Olaf's she/her pronouns when he pretended to be a secretary named Shirley and tried to steal their fortune and attempt not to misgender Count Olaf's androgynous assistant, and Lemony Snicket acknowledges that presentation ≠ gender in reference to Carmelita Spats of all people. What excuse do you have?

Just discovered Count Olaf has a Reddit account.

I'm like a year late for this meme but Count Olaf would absolutely make a ukulele apology video

I really enjoyed Neil Patrick Harris as The Toymaker in the Doctor Who 60th Anniversary Special!

Then, it got me thinking... Neil Patrick Harris plays a lot a musically inclined villains, doesn't he? I can name four just off the top of my head:

1. Dr. Horrible in Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

2. Music Meister in Batman: The Brave and the Bold

3. Count Olaf in A Series of Unfortunate Events

4. The Toymaker in Doctor Who

Guess that's what happens when you can sing, dance, and play fun, campy villains.

Any others that I'm missing?

The Baudelaires: That's count Olaf! Every adult in a five mile radius: Don't be ridiculous.

violet baudelaire invents time travel

she knows she can't go back and save her parents - that would invalidate the string of events that led to her inventing time travel in the first place, and she doesn't want to wipe out the entire universe with a paradox

but she can go back in time, jump olaf in a dark alley, and beat the shit out of him forever
