I feel like a lot of people miss the point of Sherlock's charging-port-deduction when they poke fun at it.
Now, I'm not saying he's right or some genius (or that you shouldn't poke fun at the deduction), I'm just saying that the point of this specific observation was misunderstood.
Because yes, we all try to plug our phones in in the dark or without looking and miss the port a few times. But not hard enough to leave scratches in the metal. When I look at my charging port, there are no scratches there, because I use the appropriate amount of force when plugging in my phone, and I think most of you do, too.
However, when you're completely drunk, there isn't really an 'appropriate amount of force.' You will jam your charger into the metal around your phone port hard enough to leave visible scratches.
It wasn't that the phone's user missed the port; it was that they missed the port with enough excessive force to scratch the phone.
(Which, of course, doesn't even necessarily mean 'alcoholic'; it could just be someone with difficulty with fine motor skills, or who misjudges how much force they need for things, or wasn't wearing their glasses and got very frustrated trying to plug in their phone, or any variety of other scenarios)
#anyway I've had this thought in my head for a while so it's been years since I actually watched the show so maybe I'm#completely misremembering the scene#the part I remember best from the series is Sherlock's supposed genius never-overlooking-anything skills of deduction forgetting#gay people exist lmao#bcc sherlock#sherlock#sherlock holmes#sherlock tv show#sherlock tv#sherlock bbc#is sherlock still a thing or can sir arthur conan doyle finally rest lmao

It's been a little while since I've made a poll, so I'm going to shake off the dust with a simpler question (although choosing an answer to this one is probably anything but simple for mystery fans.)
This is mostly oriented towards live action mystery/crime TV series, I'll probably do a later poll for animated shows or anime.
I can't possibly fit every series worth a shoutout in the 12 options Tumblr allows per poll, so please let me know your favorites in the tags and comments if it's not listed here. :)
Please reblog for a larger sample size, thank you!

watching “gay” media in 2012: ughhh i hope my precious little cinnamon roll does something a little limp wristed in this episode. i hope when a minor character accuses them of being gay in a way that’s nearly classifiable as a hate crime they don’t vehemently deny it this time!
watching gay media in 2023: ughhhh i hope i get to see blorbo from my shows getting spitroasted and fucked sideways from sunday and getting his balls tickled and getting it total sloppy wet style
#sorry for all the shows i’m referencing i’m about to tag#ofmd#our flag means death#good omens#wwdits#sherlock#spn#times really have changed huh. i was thinking about this because i was predictably thinking thoughts about the second#then had to be like wait. girl. we aren’t that far yet.#you think we’re going to see rhys darby dick and balls on tv? michael sheen dick and balls on tv?#you think taika waititi is going to show hole?#but at the same time i’m like. but what if……..

"Back when you first came into my life, I recalled a place that I knew as a child A special place One that I held close to my heart Won’t you lead me in a dance down this winding road where light and shadow entwine to take hold of the thoughts of the one left far behind? Know that, sometimes, I want to turn around and see the things that I’ve passed on the journey, but know with love on my side, with courage and pride, I’ll fight I will carry on"
R.I.P. Akira Toriyama
#Akira Toriyama#Dragon Ball#dragonball#dbz#dragon ball GT#Goku#I haven't seen that stupid fcking show for like 17yrs why the hell am i crying??#like damn#I started watching it when I was 5#and then it became the first show that I saw to the end#Dragon Ball GT being the first series finale that I've ever experienced#i remember it being so weird as a child to lose something you've had for so long#for years I've been rushing home back from school to be able to see it on TV#...and then decades later seeing that everyone in the world was obsessed with it#it wasn't just my silly little kid show#like everyone under 50 know about Goku#as someone else said he really be up there with Sherlock Holmes Dracula and other legendary characters#What a legacy Akira Toriyama Thank you

I don’t see enough people talking about the fact that Nick is a really good artist. He can briefly see a wesen woge and then hours later draw a highly detailed and accurate sketch of what he saw. From what I remember this is just… not really discussed in the show.
#was he always a hobby artist?#this photo-like memory isn’t really discussed either#S1 also establishes that he has a Sherlock-like ability to read people which is used a bit in S1 but not often#I think that gets overshadowed by the fact that he can see wesen woge so I guess he can already get a good idea of their personality#but why write that in as a trait at all#I don’t remember that particular ability ever really coming in handy either#this is just me thinking thoughts and rambling#grimm#grimm nbc#grimm tv show#grimm series#nbc grimm#nick burkhardt
