ghost hunting team that keep a nonbeliever named steve around as an emergency supernatural suppressant
he waits in the car with a walkie talkie while they investigate and if things break bad they call him in. as soon as he enters everything stops floating around/trying to kill the hunters and he rolls his eyes and goes back to the car.
he’s not bluffing. i can’t emphasize that enough. he 100% believes that the hunters calling him in is either a prank, to make him feel useful, or because they’re spookable cowards who panicked when a book fell.
he stays because the money is good and he can play his gameboy in the car.
i fucking love this so much. it’s like having a service animal but instead it’s a guy named steve who owns more cargo shorts than the Gap continuously baffled by why he keeps getting befriended by goths.
People who think sheep are killed for their wool are so hilarious to me. Does your barber slit your throat whenever you get a haircut?? Are you a returning customer to Sweeney Todd? Lmao it grows back, fools.
This is completely ignoring the fact that the sheep’s soul is stored in its wool. So sure, the body remains, but the spirit, the essence of the sheep, that’s gone forever, and then as the wool regrows a new soul moves in.
What
Same for me, I get a new soul with every haircut. That’s why my personality changes so much.
Tumblr citizenship means being completely unsure if the person posting about sheep souls is being 100% serious or is just taking the piss.
THEY TAKE THEIR PISS TOO?!?!?
Yup, stockpiling it in giant buckets to pour on the poor
You discover that you have control over a certain thing, as determined by spinning this wheel. We’re talking full-on magical girl/superhero/supervillain/your label of choice control.
Specifically, to “swash a buckler” referred to the act of pounding a buckler (small shield) against one’s own chest as a sort of macho display.
What about fuckface?
Ignoring the joke (sorry), that IS a curious one because! Any of the compound words mentioned above would, if switched from exocentric to reg compound, have the boring-ass -er ending and the noun positions would trade places, right? I.e. thriftspender, pocketpicker etc. The meaning remains the same.
So fuckface would turn into Facefucker. Buuuut. That changes the meaning entirely! It implies that the target… let’s call him Wulfric, is a fucker of faces. However og Fuckface means Wulfric’s face is the face in need of a thorough fucking, and definitely on the receiving end. Poor (lucky?) Wulfric. So would that still make it a true exocentric compound noun? Since it doesn’t keep its meaning? SO FASCINATING!!!
As an aside, the German word for Fuckface is Backpfeifengesicht, meaning a face in need of a slapping. While less severe, it’s endlessly more delightful and pleasing to say.
brooding men who cannot communicate their feelings if their life depended on it are only hot when they’re fictional. if i have to deal with one in real life i will curse him and pray for his downfall every night before i go to bed
It’s because the writer communicates their feelings for them. If people wanna pull that off in real life they need to hire a guy to walk around behind them narrating.
We need to bring back the bait fish because sometimes it feels like yall can’t tell when someone is trolling you
Look at him! He’s so cute and he knows that someone posting stupid, brain dead or offensive comments is just trying to get you mad, and you should make fun of them for that.
Miri ♥ old enough to have seen some shit ♥ she/her/hers ♥ aroace. English. Teacher. Degree in over-analysing fiction. Emotions over characters a lot. Currently living in Japan. I have a queue running from about 3-12pm GMT, so if you see me posting around then you can probably assume it's that. This is a multifandom blog, whose main focus depends heavily on what my dash is reblogging today and/or what shows are currently airing. A complete list of fandoms you'll find on here would take forever, so just rest assured that I always tag stuff with the fandom for your TS needs. (Also included on this blog are random nonfandom things that make me feel things or I think look cool, and a fair bit of posting about social justice issues.) I'm something of a multishipper. Even if I don't ship it, my policy is ship and let ship, so I won't judge you for yours if you don't judge me for mine.
