every western movie ever made: The wild west is dying. theres no more room left for cowboys anymore…

me everytime: :(

every samurai movie ever made (both edo and bakamatsu periods): The bushido code is dying. there no more room left for samurai anymore…

me everytime: :(

A lot of westerns are remakes of samurai movies

those samurai movies were very often heavily inspired by 50′s and 40′s westerns

Cowboys and samurai are brothers separated by time and space.

Best duo.

I’ve got y’alls new favorite art piece right here.

According to Google, Samurai were abolished in 1868.

This means that at the same time that cowboys were reaching their end, so too were samurai.

Cowboys and Samurai were separated not by time, only space.

I’ve got something else to add to this: there’s also an extremely specific species of mushroom that can only be found in Texas and Japan. I’m serious.

The most ambitious crossover

Fantasy setting but it’s just Texas and Japan together at last

I don’t have an excuse this time but can you blame me

Mermaids first hoarded treasure to keep the sea clean, storing them in coves and land for humans to collect. Pirate: Arrghh, X marks the spot but where’s the treasure? Mermaid, holding worthless bags of jewelry: Sorry I’m late! Pirate: Wha- Mermaid: Is this for trash or recycling?

Mermaid misses a load of pirates by about 20 minutes and has the same amount of anger I have when I miss the binmen on a tuesday

Ancient Greek names are so pretty and fun to say, but you have to be so careful using them for children or pets because there may be Classics majors out there lying in wait and they will tell everyone about all the murder and incest and baby-eating your daughter’s mythological namesake might be associated with if you don’t pick one of the more well-known ones

As a classics major, anyone who names their kid after a mythological person without doing an ounce of reserch deserves the public shaming

help me decide upon the Worst Possible Greek Names to give a pet

....so that I can avoid them, of course, and not so that I can lure nearby Classics majors out into the open where they are vulnerable to attack

isn’t there a goddess out here willing to turn me into medusa so men can’t look at me without immediately suffering the consequences

Stop being lazy and relying on gods. Quick dry cement exists. Be your own Medusa

“If you don’t have any goddess-bestowed cement powers, store bought is fine”

honk honk human where are your spider powers now

It appears that just like Gritty...

In celebration of our apparently new SJW ally, I give you some handy graphics:

At this point “being a sjw” just means “liking things”

Those damn SJWS and their *looks at hand* “Geese”

i was confused about this so i googled it. there’s literally just a bit of text at the end of the game’s credits about how australia still belongs to the aboriginals. that’s it. that’s what they’re mad about.

do you ever just like...miss Tony Stark?

Always

Tony was my best friend. And he was a mess. He second-guessed everything he did, he was all over the place. The one thing that he did he didn’t second-guess was picking you. 

you can’t honestly expect me to believe that New York/the world is going to look at Peter Parker and realistically believe that he’s the villain here. tell me you wouldn’t look at his soft puppy eyes and nerdy t-shirts and immediately just adopt him.

Children playing with Barbies in media: “This is Sally. She’s the mommy. She loves fashion, swimming, and she drives a convertible! She has a baby with Ken and sometimes they kiss.” OR “Look, I ripped Barbie’s head off! Ha ha ha! I’m a boy.”

Children playing with Barbies in real life: “This is Aurora, the fallen goddess of the sky. She has been banished from her kingdom and bound to a mortal body by her sister, who rose to power by human sacrifices. She now leads an army of cannibal water spirits who eat men. Sometimes they have orgies. They dismembered a traitor and keep her head on a Popsicle stick as a warning to others. Aurora can turn into a wolf and uses battle magic to paralyze her enemies. The king of the stuffed animals developed rabies and she had to slay him to save his people, but they do not understand that it was an act of mercy and kindness and are sending assassins after her for regicide. This is Aurora’s soulmate, Crystal, but her soul is trapped in a gemstone while an evil spirit pilots her body and attempts to murder her friends.”
