#but it's such a quotable moment

When I was in...high school. Not elementary school. Not middle school.

High school.

I got back into Club Penguin.

And one time I was playing Club Penguin and wanted my brother to get online so he could check my igloo out or something. And I deadass messaged him "get your ass back on Club Penguin"

And during Orchestra class. IN HIGH SCHOOL. Meaning I was too old for this game and it was very embarrassing if anyone found out I was still playing it as a teenager. My friend sitting next to me SAW THE MESSAGE ON MY IPOD

No I did not have a phone. All I had was an iPod

Apprentice Adam and Hoffman back at it again with their bullshit

Mark may be guilty of eating hot chip and lying himself but he is NOT about to joke around on the clock.

"(About the car upgrades) Hopefully, a step into a different direction...to start developing a car that has proved to be very difficult to drive - very on the edge. It's giving Charles and I some tough times - a lot more than what people imagine..."

you might like IT crowd, it’s a fun show very nerdy. More tech end of humor but nerdy to no end

I have seen it several times.

I meant to post this when I had my annual watch of Over the Garden Wall in October, but then I never did because I think I partly forgot and partly was worried about being annoying. But y’know I still love this show and want to share it, so here you have it.

My favorite Over the Garden Wall moments (at least all the ones I could find in gif form):

Semi-baked thought but recently I have read 3 different professionally published gay romances that were...fine...some more satisfying than others, but what stuck out to me was the extent to which the characterization and dialogue lacked surprises. A bi guy in an M/M romance recommendation thread on reddit pointed out the extent to which published romances gravitate toward a particular flavor of feminine man paired with a particular flavor of masculine man and it's hard not to keep seeing once it's pointed out. In each of the three books the more 'masculine' guy was bisexual. I love bisexuals (it's self-love), I love characters with differing relationships to their gender, but I'm also fighting down thoughts of a drinking game.

It's not the exact same flavor as the original Fandom Ghost but it is a Ghost. [And specific enough that it is a Ghost, not an archetype.]

Perhaps the bigger lacking-surprises issue is a craft one where everyone just Says What They Mean too often, and in rather bland ways. I don't mind the occasional revelation of Truth from the Heart; I am reading romance! But how you do it matters, points can be won for style; there's a low quotability quotient and less satisfaction because, again, it's romance, we know they're going to communicate these particular ideas, we're here to be charmed and surprised by how they do it. (In parallel to the romances, I'm reading Robin Hobb's character-driven fantasy novels, and one thing I will say for her, the characters' dialogue + narrative is a firehose of surprises in a way that often reads as more truly romantic.)

If this was fanfiction of my Blorbos I would be more easily satisfied, or perhaps the generic-ness would be less noticeable because I'd be backfilling richer details from canon. When it's happening to original characters, it leaves a feeling of dissatisfaction.

There's also a thing where the side characters root for the relationship in rather flat/uninteresting ways; I'm willing to admit some of this is Just Me having a higher angst preference than the target audience, but at the same time I've read older romances (old enough that they're standardly heterosexual) which, for all their myriad other sins, give side characters much richer and more complex emotional affects and roles. And I think some of it is approach/style more than content: if I summarize various side characters, they sound perfectly interesting, but on the page they fall flat because they just Say What They Mean in polite and generic ways. [This a flaw that annoys me in fanfiction too. Once you've read enough, you already know what they're going to say, usually, but you want the way they say it to make some impression. "Say" can be broadly construed to include body language and symbolic action - my kingdom for an extravagant gesture.]
