There’s a lovely old English myth that if someone who truely loved and trusted the werewolf called it by name that it would turn back to human.

Others include throwing their human clothes at it and it’d turn back but that’s a bit less romantic

Or the grandmother throwing the werewolf’s clothes at it and being all “God damn it Jerry, put your fucking clothes back on.”

Y’know, I really enjoy the concept of Clark Kent.

Like, minus the whole superman aspect.

because, like, okay I can buy that maybe he can disguise himself well enough to hide the fact that he’s superman, but i doubt any amount of slouching and glasses wearing can truly disguise that he’s a very tall EXTREMELY muscular man with a jawline that can cut glass.

So basically this newspaper office has this guy who looks like a weightlifter/supermodel just hanging around but he wears glasses and acts like a huge nerd and everyone just goes with it???

Like “Oh yeah, that’s Clark. No no he works here. Oh no don’t bother being intimidated by him, talk to him for five minutes and he’ll devolve into a lecture on proper tractor maintenance. We like Clark.”

 I wonder if the ladies in the office ever drag him with them to bars so they don’t have to worry about creeps trying to harass them like “back off creeps our friend here is 6′4″ and grew up chucking hay bales”  And then it’s funny because (as far as they know) Clark is like, the meekest lil nerd around. (He don’t look it though!!!!)

It’s just incredible to me that Clark Kent can pull off being a quiet harmless dork while still looking like, well, superman.

Do you think he occasionally turns up to the office Halloween party wearing a really shitty Batman costume?

The new Bond has to be British, able to handle themselves in action scenes, and look good in a tux. 

There is really only one option: 

Repeat: Emily Blunt

is 

the 

only 

option.

Wow y'all really have Kim out here thinking that this is all her fault. That she deserved to be dragged out of her bed in the middle of the night, tied up, and thrown into a bathtub scared for her life, because of her wealth. 

 This “well she shouldn’t have…” done this or that, victim-blaming mentality has absolutely got to stop. No one is doing this to you guys when you post whatever it is that you just got on IG. I don’t care how much you don’t like The Kardashians. Celebrities are humans too, and people should be able to have their belongings in peace, no matter how wealthy or poor. No one should be scared to live their life

“Ghostbusters isn’t getting a sequel because it was female lead and that meant it didn’t get a theatrical release in China.”

Look. If Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon set up a camcorder against a cardboard backdrop and just filmed themselves shooting invisible ghosts with NERF guns, I would watch it. 

I feel like this will end up on SNL.

When Hilary dies

And this people of the internet, is what politicians call, a “sound bite” 

“…And our problem is not all kooks and Klansman. It’s also in the cruel joke that goes unchallenged. It’s in the off-hand comments about not wanting “those people” in the neighborhood.

Let’s be honest: For a lot of well-meaning, open-minded white people, the sight of a young Black man in a hoodie still evokes a twinge of fear. And news reports about poverty and crime and discrimination evoke sympathy, even empathy, but too rarely do they spur us to action or prompt us to question our own assumptions and privilege.”

if you want to be political, stop being lazy

It’s also said that dwarfs have two hundred words for rock.    They don’t. They have no words for rock, in the same way that fish have no words for water. They do have words for igneous rock, sedimentary rock, metamorphic rock, rock underfoot, rock dropping on your helmet from above, and rock which looked interesting and which they could have sworn they left here yesterday. But what they don’t have is a word meaning “rock.” Show a dwarf a rock and he sees, for example, an inferior piece of crystalline sulphite of barytes.
