hate when you don’t answer my calls, buddy. i always think you fell down an open manhole or something.

i feel that fogy narrating things for matt is important because, in a way, it is affecting matt’s perception of the world and probably making it a much merrier place

#especially because it’s so casual??? #like matt can probably tell some of these things #but foggy never makes it seem like #oh man ur blind that suckS WOW UR BLIND LET ME TELL YOU WHAT YOU COULD BE SEEING BECAUSE WOW UR BLIND #no it’s so much more natural and helping #and JUST KIND #FOGGY IS SO GOOD (via thegoinbetweens)

I just noticed how Foggy also usually gestures _while_ he is narrating these things to Matt.     (indicates Ben with his arm; points to the stairs; waves his arm toward the street they are crossing; points at her after the curtsey)

He doesn’t censor his body language just because Matt can’t see it; he just keeps his natural motions.  I wonder if Matt notices that with his super senses and appreciates it.

He’s such a proud, dorky papa, and that makes me such a proud, dorky, grandpa.

Alternatives to Book Piracy

I understand your plight. You are completely broke. You can’t afford that Shiny New Book that everyone is talking about. Obviously you are entitled to read it. You are entitled to read it right now, for free, and the consequences be damned! Right?!

I hate to break it to you, sunshine, but you are entitled to nothing. However, here are some ways you can get your hands on the book you so desire, while taking into account the immense amount of work the author has put into it.

The Library

The library is very accommodating with bringing in new books. Heck, if you let them know early enough that you want the book, they may be able to have it available for release date! Check with your public library, and your school library if you have one. Librarians are awesome people, they are not scary at all, and libraries REALLY get a kick out of being used. Libraries also rotate their stock fairly regularly, and library book sales are so super awesome, I can’t even begin to describe them.

Used Book Stores

This requires some waiting *gasp* but, it allows you to buy the book at a discount, usually in support of a good cause. It also makes sure that somewhere, someone paid for the book from a book store or the publisher. This is important in making sure that the author gets to eat. You can also look on Kijiji - using your safe Kijiji practices.

Borrow It

You have a friend. Your friend buys the book. You ask very nicely to borrow the book. You treat the book with love and respect. You read it, and return it in pristine condition. Some books you can also borrow via Kindle or Nook, though not all of them. You also have the option of websites like Paperback Swap, which lets you swap your own books with other people.

Obtain an ARC

I mean legally here, people. Through Edelweiss or NetGalley or one of the other book review sites. The way you pay for your copy here is by writing a review and spreading the word about the book you just read. Especially right around launch day, because those sales are SO important to the author. You can sign up for sites like NetGalley and just request books without writing reviews, but you won’t get very far.

See, wasn’t that easy?

OK seriously how do characters in Young Justice focus well enough to transmit only relevant thoughts over telepathy like if you mentally linked me with other people in the first three seconds everyone would be overwhelmed with bad pop songs and incoherent despair.

I wonder if you’re allowed to make friends in Hell. Or is it kind of like silent reading time, but with more fire.

More fire? What kind of silent reading did you have????

Yo, Mr Rogers was not fictional.
