#archives humor

[chaotic-archaeologist]

If I encounter one more rubber band from the 1960s that has adhered itself to the archival material, I am going to lose my freaking mind :)

imagine this, you died and they read that ao3 fic you posted when you were alive out loud during your eulogy

[darklesmylove]

me doing anything but actually writing the next chapter as if it’ll magically appear on its own:

[vavandeveresfan]

The first thing I do when I’m writing fanfiction.

[fox-guardian]

read a fic recently that had an interaction like

sasha: tim get like one social media PLEASE I am BEGGING

tim: I have linkedin?

and I cannot describe the Joy I felt reading that. they get it.

[cirrus-grey]

Maybe he wasn't. But-

maybe

Jon

was.

[ashes-in-a-jar]

No you don't understand. Jon has an impeccable sense of humor and every other sentence that comes out of his mouth is some version of an intentional joke that sounded amazing in his head and sounds even better when spoken between two serious sentences which makes everyone around him miss the punchline.

Martin tho? Martin is fully serious no matter what he says. "Smorgasbord" for the Fears? Fully serious. "If I ever see another can of peaches"? Serious. "Righto"? Dead serious. "I can't hear you there is a door in the way"? Furious. "Gouge your eyes out"? A fully serious expression. You want to hear a martin joke? Here is a real life martin joke and it's glorious:

MARTIN

(surprisingly chipper) No prizes for guessing who’s in charge here, eh?

ARCHIVIST

Mm, I – I suppose not.

MARTIN

You know, I really miss the days when I could blame broken streetlights on the council.

A strongly-worded letter just doesn’t feel as forceful when it’s addressed to (funny voice, pitched lower) whichever Dread Power it may concern.

spring break

James is willing to do anything to get Regulus' attention, including, participating on a wet t-shirt contest where Regulus will be the judge.

"The curly-haired man scanned him with his gaze, and the moment he reached his exposed abdomen, he blushed. James made him blush. He had found exactly who he wanted to spend his week with.”

BLACK SAILS - XIX.

[chaotic-archaeologist]

Every once in a while I come across something in the archives that gives me a little giggle.

A tutor who tooted the flute Tutored two tutors to toot; Said the two to the tutor, Is it easier to toot or to Tutor two tutors to toot.

we can't let this happen. Oh no, oh no... quote a reblogger on my pinned post about this on my blog; "oh shit, the abomination has been reanimated". Indeed, while I'm a big fan of abominations, NOT THIS ONE. THIS IS THE MOST DISGUSTING ABOMINATION I'VE EVER SEEN. FANDOMS OF TUMBLR, UNITE.
