Since no one else here has the frickin’ guts to do it, here’s a completely unbiased ranking of the Bokoblins from the Zelda games

Wind Waker Bokoblins

Swashbuckling seadogs! I like their spunk and their scurvy! Unfortunately, I have to dock some points for that weird mouth thing they do.

8/10

Twilight Princess Bokoblins

Oh, EW. Who let these nasty little creeps out? They look like they hang out in abandoned Blockbusters and eat nothing but asbestos. Awful.

4/10

Skyward Sword Bokoblins

These guys… huh. They’re a little too people-y, y’know? Kinda straddling the line between “monster” and “smelly dude who sits too close to you on the bus.” But they’re trying, I guess.

6/10

Breath of the Wild Bokoblins

Look at these charming little scamps! They just want to eat fruit and yell at things! And play with fire. An almost perfect rapscallion and ne’er-do-well!

9/10

???

Wait, who’s this fellow? He’s so cute! Look at him! Small but determined! I don’t know what kind of Bokoblin this is but he’s the clear winner here!

10/10

Narrator: So one of the things I hate about my brother is that he hogs the bathroom in the morning, (probably because it takes so long to wash and dry his Skrillex hair). So I decided I wanted to change that. So in school we learned about this guy who was able to train dogs to drool to the sound of a bell by ringing a bell each time he showed food. So I decided I wanted to try something similar on my brother. So basically my plan was to place this Perry the platypus thing in my bathroom every day before he woke up, and then I would hide somewhere in there to scare him, so then eventually he’d associate Perry the platypus with getting scared, and he wouldn’t come into the bathroom as long as it was there. So I actually only had to do this for a couple days and, good news! As long as Perry the platypus is there, my brother won’t even set foot in there.

It’s so significant too that this narrative was collected by Zora Neale Hurston, one of the greatest authors and anthropologists of her time. She was shunned by the “gatekeepers” of both of these professions, largely because of her Blackness, her womanhood, and her uncompromising commitment to honoring and showcasing both in her works. She died penniless and alone in a state-run institution in 1960. All of her works had gone out of publication by then. It took more than a decade before she was rediscovered. A young author by the name of Alice Walker had come across her work and was deeply inspired by it. “In 1973, after an exhaustive search, Walker came across Hurston’s unmarked grave in Ft. Pierce, Fla. She purchased a headstone for Hurston’s tomb and had it inscribed “A Genius of the South.“”

It is through Zora Neale Hurston’s pioneering sacrifice, and the acceptance of that inheritance by Alice Walker that we have found this missing piece of our history. Without the courageous and unfailing work of Black women, we wouldn’t have Cudjo Lewis’s story. We are slowly regaining a narrative that’s been hidden from us, one that continues to be lied about. Trust Black women to lead the way.

You can identify a fake redneck by their passionate support of “blue lives matter.” Real rednecks have been in at least one physical fight and/or high-speed chase with police officers and would do it again

“redneck” is a valid culture, not a euphemism for “bigot”

So this has probably already been said on this post but I dont wanna scroll through 66k notes to find it.

The term Redneck gain prominence with striking coal miners in Appalachia. They wore red bandanas around their necks to express union solidarity.

And they fucking FOUGHT police and Pinkerton strike breaker forces. It was a period called The Coal Wars.

The poor and working classes have a long history of community support and rejecting police authority.

If you’re pro-cop, you’re not a redneck, you’re a bootlicker who based your personality on a played out Jeff Foxworthy caricature. Get bent. Your ancestors are ashamed of you.

The face Milhouse made haunted me for years. I don’t know what it is about that grimace that branded itself upon me but… it stuck. It stuck with me for years.

Even now, I feel a certain coldness

because its based on this picture of a French man watching the Nazis march into Paris in 1940
