"Ligma jokes aaaare almost always bad. It's kind of an art form in my opinion. There are a lot of ligma jokes people do where they 'get' someone, but that's not getting someone. Getting someone is: Having a conversation with Mark about Good Time Dragon for three hours and pretending it's a videogame until someone bites, and asks 'what's Good Time Dragon?'. That is a FUCKING awesome joke. Yo- you- you can't BELIEVE- If that happens to you- like- 'ALL i did was try and be interested in what my friends were talking about and i got- i got BUTTFUCKED for it.' That is the only good- like- like- people will- people will [indecipherable] easy wins, but there is no good win unless you fucking earn it. [...] I had a ligma joke in the works. It was extremely meta. I didn't wanna tell you guys because [pause] Vesting Barbecue was my [pause] he was basically The Victim. I've been working on it for a really long time, but i give up now. I can see that Vesting Barbecue has been gotten by me so many times [pause] that i'll PROBABLY never get him again. He doesn't engage anymore. It's like- it's like practicing a really good game. And you learn everything NOT to do as you gain more and more experience. that's what makes you a pro. I have turned Vesting into a pro. He will never be tricked AGAIN, unless you have a loooooot of context where like [pause] You're a new frieeend, you're nothing but nice to them like, that's- that's the only way you get 'em. Like, the days of me getting Vesting with ligma joke are long fucking gone. There's nothing i can do, it'll never happen again. But i WILL explain to you the joke concept because it's FUCKING [pause] genius. And you guys are gonna hear it and be like 'HOLY SHIT i can't believe no one's ever thought of this'. You have to be in a voice call with multiple people, someone has to say something [pause] that is unusual word, you have to pretend laugh you have to go 'AHAHAHA', and then you have to be like 'Vesting you ever hear that ligma joke?', and he's supposed to go 'Which one?'. He says 'Which one?', you're fucking IN. Because your answer is 'LIGMA BALLS!'. And you bring it all the way back to the very basic form [pause] of ligma. But- it's so meta, it's so fucking great. I wa- i- i've been trying to get Vesting with it for like, a month. I have been able to get, like, FIVE other people. FIVE OTHER PEOPLE in the span of me trying to get Vesting, have asked me 'Which one?', and i DIDN'T TAKE IT, because they were not the intended target. THAT is how you have a good ligma joke. THAT is how you actually are satisfied with the result of the fucking words you say. There's nothing funny about [pause] getting someone with a Joe Mama. That's not funny. There's nothing good- there's no poise. You gotta earn it if you wanna feel good about 'em, in my opinion." -Simpleflips on ligma jokes

Demisexual? No, you misheard. I said Dummysexual. I'm attracted to that moron over there. Look at them. They just tripped over nothing and set the house on fire. I'm in love.

the thing is. the THING is. no one. absolutely NO ONE thought Aegon would be able to rule. he was this piece of clay to be moulded by Otto, Alicent, and the small council. the only thing those people wanted from him was his uselessness. and the FUNNY thing is. he FAILED at being useless.
Aegon, the family failure, failed at failing.

cannot think too hard about the fact that vivienne was young when she first originally met bastien, the head of the council of heralds, and he took an interest in her when he was likely well into his forties. cannot think about how the moment he set eyes on her during the wintersend ball she was made a target of the rest of the orlesian court. can't think about how she was forced into becoming a player of the game and that she NEEDED to become good at it and have bastien's support or she would of been killed. having a very normal one about vivienne today, clearly
