i hate josh gad

i am fully convinced that the reason no one gives a flying fuck about arnold in the bom fandom is because of josh gad. most people watch the obc bootleg right??

i cannot explain in words how much i HATE HIM. i’m sorry. there is not a single good bootleg with a good arnold actor on any website ever. ben platt does not play arnold in the way that arnold is meant to be played and JOSH GAD MAKES ME WANT TO RIP MY EARS OFF.

watching the obc bootleg and seeing him miss his cues and doing that fucking laugh and reducing his character to loud = funny fills me with such unfathomable rage. and while the original broadway show before the changes has LOADS more pricingham shit (their little song together when they make up, andrew rannells being really touchy for some reason, all of it really) i genuinely am not even mad as to why some people don’t see it because the thought of josh gad as cunningham makes me feel ill.

fans of bom who have only seen bootlegs on youtube i will personally buy you a plane ticket to the uk so you can come and see one of tom xanders shows before he leaves because then you will actually be able to see that cunningham is a good character anyway i think i’m fucking crazy

“kate has to babysit caitlin” well yes! otherwise there will be bloodshed on that court (jk)

no but really. i love that kate seems to be able to read caitlin so well that she can anticipate when she’s getting a little too heated even in the middle of a game. like that’s her psychotic baby fr

Roach makes a tiktok rating the signatures the 141 use on their emails;

"Regarding question, please refrain, Lt Riley"

Roach : Very in character for the big man, unfortunately it was in regards to a question of requesting leave so. 4/10.

"Your brother in Christ, Sg Garrick"

Roach : Wonderful form. Made me laugh. Solid score. 7/10

"Stay positive and test negative guys, Sg McTavish"

Roach : Covid jokes are always funny, but he's made this one several times now, and I'm bored of it. 3/10 for fuckery.

"Don't fuck this up you little enabling shits, Cpt Price"

Roach : Hilarious. Our group chat is now titled "little enabling shits" not very professional from the captain. Still 9/10.

"We will discuss more later, SC Laswell."

Roach : Terrifying. Actually, bone chilling. Scared all of us so much. 10/10 for pure fear.

"Eat my ass, Sg Riley xx."

Roach : This one's super old now, but I love it, so it's staying here. 11/10. Gods speed, Si.

ONE DAY ↳book > screen

“You always hurt the ones you love!” He starts to giggle, then laugh outright, struggling to maintain the silence as his body starts to shake, making the mattress shudder. “Are you laughing?” murmurs Sylvie into her pillow. “No!” says Dexter, screwing his face tight to keep it in, but the laughter’s coming in waves now and he feels another wave of hysterics starting to build in his stomach. There is a point in the future where even the worst disaster starts to settle into an anecdote, and he can see the potential for a story here.

It’s the kind of story that he would like to tell Emma Morley. But he doesn’t know where Emma Morley is, or what she’s doing, hasn’t seen her for more than two years now. He’ll just have to remember the story. Tell her some other day.

Meanwhile, Literally Me 24/7:

[eeblouissant]

in this essay I need to talk about the way Dorothy acts around & reacts to stan in this clip (season 4 ep 5) specifically or I will simply perish.

enjoy the unorganized (unedited, and definitely not reread) chaos, this will be more of a ramble than anything - it’s so late & I need to get these thoughts out of my head before I explode.

Firstly, the clip in question:

( 1:15 - 2:22 )

now. Oh boy. Where do I even begin.

As much as I know it was done for comedic effect; the way Dorothy doesn’t hesitate to let herself cuddle into stan (STAN!!! CUDDLING. with STAN. And **publicly** there are so many layers here) when he puts an arm around her, describing what probably were the happier times Dorothy’s mentioned having with him despite it all (or at least a version of them. his version, that he’d created in an attempt to persuade her, as we learn pretty quickly) - oh god it just breaks my heart. She lets herself feel those memories for just a moment, before it all inevitably comes crashing down again. The way she snaps so quickly… that’s something we do not see in younger Dorothy. Younger Dorothy comes off much more passive-aggressive leaning more on the passive (shy?) side, she’s just very logical & no nonsense (but not in the way she is now). That’s something that Dorothy never really loses - Whereas current Dorothy has lost that (passiveness) completely with stan, and seems find it natural to come off as “aggressive” & dominating around/toward others. So - that ability to shut off & become defensive like that, & so fast, was developed later on. She’s got a bite now that was learned, because she had to bite to survive. For her own sanity. Do you know how much work that would take to unlearn & heal, if she ever even tried? oh my. Yeah I’m not well. I don’t think she would have much faith in it changing either, it’s become such a part of her. I think she would feel a little lost without it.

That first bit kills me - but what kills me about this scene most, is that last bit. Where she tries to push back further with a comment she know will be funny and just a little hurtful (towards stan, im sure she thought) and that will further deflect. But it backfires and hurts her instead. Her voice breaks. It breaks and her eyes soften and it looks like that just for a moment she lets the hurt shine through. Because that is especially painful, she cannot bury it. Her entire demeanour changes as those last few words are delivered (and Oh My God do they register fast - like she’d reopened that wound having no idea it was going to sting so badly.) and I just - oh my GOD. For that split second she looks like she might crack, the pain in her voice is so clear. & then the walls go right back up & it’s pushed right back down. I cannot deal. I absolutely cannot. Dorothy has let herself be vulnerable in the past, but has there ever been more than maybe (maybe) a handfull of instances where her voice & face soften that way? Anyway, I’m absolutely losing it over those little details. I’ve yet to find another scene where it feels like younger Dorothy shines through in the current. It hurt my heart so good and I cannot stop thinking about it :’) I think this is my sign to rebinge every episode in order. Because I am definitely forgetting - there has to be more.

Okay that’s all for now! If any of you have any thoughts or personal fav scenes (etc) to share as well please feel free!!! Dorothy angst seems to be my drug of choice lately lmao

(like two bits of this were my own interpretations of Dorothy’s character based on observation, don’t take them as canon nor am I claiming they are, because we obviously don’t know exactly what happened in between + younger Dorothy didn’t have much screen time :’)! Headcanons are just so much fun to throw around!!)

just a little rant from me about the ending of bg3 with romanced gale since I just finished it today. tons of spoilers under the cut and it's really just me being a little frustrated and emotional tehe

So I've already looked at stuff and guides about Sneaky God Gale and I think it's so dumb. I romanced Gale and I think I made one choice about him that could maybe be taken as telling him to pursue the crown. It was either something with Mystra or something about the book, I don't remember and I'm not going back to redo one fucking choice when all I wanted to do was make sure the man I was in a relationship with in this stupid game to not blow up and also to not ask for forgiveness from a goddess that told him to kill himself.

Idk, I just think it's dumb that this is the only romance that works on a point system and doesn't give any indication of this happening. I got to the end and Gale was like "kay, I'm gonna go look for the crown now and become a god". Even though we had a whole ass conversation on a boat where I convinced him NOT to do that. It's stupid that even when romancing him and telling him this stuff he still goes off and does it and there's not even a choice to call him out on it???

I know it's good to have realism in games, especially when it comes to companions, but I play these games to escape reality, not get dumped by this fictional man when he told my character that he wouldn't do that. And I wish the writers for this part could realize that and realize that many of us don't always look up guides for everything because I thought I was on the right path. Why should ONE choice change this when that choice is so obscure.

I'm genuinely frustrated and angry at this. I finally finished this game after putting hours into it and I just wanted a sweet ending with Gale and instead I got this. It's stupid and bad writing and it's genuinely making me dislike more parts of this game than I thought I would. I already had problems with the game before (but that's a different conversation) and this just put the cherry on the top.

I haven't even finished the epilogue/reunion dinner thing because I talked to Gale and got so fucking angry. Why can't I tell him to fuck off. Why can't I convince him before to not do this. If I knew his romance would be so sneaky and underhanded when it seems, on the surface, to be anything but, then I would have gone for someone else. I thought Gale would be sweet and fun, and he was in the beginning. I don't understand why the writing in Act 3 changes so much.

Anyway, that's my thoughts. I don't expect much response from this since it really is just me being angry, but I wanted to write it down and I thought I might as well share it with the world too lol

and i’m so furious at you for making me feel this way but what can i say? you’re gorgeous

so many thoughts. charlie’s inferno by that handsome devil is a kevin price song 🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭

[kendallsroyco]

A random, interesting (and funny) tidbit: It is widely believed that Charlie is the 'british boyfriend' being pertained to in this video 💀

Context: Charlie and Kate Mara dated back in 2008 and in this video she talks about a 'british boyfriend' she dumped a while after he dented a Superbowl trophy in her house trying to catch it💀

How are we feeling about the season 3 announcement???? ✨

To quote Pride and Prejudice “completely and perfectly and incandescently happy”!!! Also massively relieved. Like, yes, Neil had said he would finish the story one way or another but come on. We NEEDED to see David and Michael act it out, especially after The Final Fifteen traumatized us all. Ending the tv show there on such a dramatic cliffhanger would have been awful. So the fact that Neil gets to tell the complete story the way he (and Terry) planned, with two of the best actors in the game doing what they do, just sends me over the moon!

I was listening to the playlist Prime put out (Spotify here and Apple Music here) yesterday and it made me cry so I know I’m gonna be a blubbery fucking mess when the season ends with them sharing soft kisses in the summer rain under the canopy of their wings in their South Downs cottage garden. Go listen to The Book of Love (one of the three Neil put on the list, along with Cry Me a River and The Show Must Go On) and tell me that’s not how it’s gonna go down. Ughhh now I’m crying again lol.

I'm still reeling from and thinking so hard about the “You can do things without me! …You’re so good at it” from Chess to Kate because on one hand I can assume what it means but also what does that mean???!?
