30 years old and slowly wasting away on the computer. I'm Liz, and my favorite things to do are eating, reading and flailing due to intense feelings over films. Go ahead and ask me anything- I'm always up for a chat!

funniest thing about the thing (1982) is that the titular thing is both a master manipulator who can perfectly replicate anyone but also a big bundle of nerves who flips out and starts screaming and turning into 5000 meat parts at once the INSTANT it’s found out

like at one point the thing replicates a guy who has a heart condition, promptly has a heart attack, and then gets so freaked out by the defibrillator it starts biting people

the thing is a master actor who is absolutely awful at improv and the show keeps going wrong

Van Helsing, Bram Flakes Stoker, the audience: This vampire is a terrible and persistent predator! He strikes whenever he can, the moment we let down our guard! What a dastardly and enigmatic fiend to make a victim of this poor girl without end..!

Dracula, who thinks he’s stumbled upon the Greatest Blood Donor in the World (a girl who comes in multiple blood flavors, seasoned with various liquors and hard Victorian drugs) doing a happy little bat dance outside the window as he wonders what tonight’s mystery meal will be: 🦇🩸🖤!!!

arthur, despairing because his fiancée is on death's door: my life is hers, and i would give the last drop of blood in my body for her

van helsing, about to carry out an immensely dangerous blood transfusion that will only save lucy's life through god and the sheer lucky circumstances of the people involved having the correct blood types because it's the nineteenth century and he doesn't know they exist, physically incapable of letting the opportunity for a joke pass by: well it doesn't have to be that much lol

We all know we could just keep reading the book instead of waiting for the updates on Dracula Daily but we've agreed as a community to wait and comment each episode together as if it wasn't a 1800 novel

where were you when you wrote this post?  just curious

I was in the library reading Seneca in the original Latin.

Some additional quality memes from the past 24 hours:

Meanwhile, OP has continued tracking trash can mishaps on twitter:

And a quality photo of this sweet potato:

An update for those not following Jorts’ twitter account, starting with a transcription of the Wellerman cover:

Link to the lovely video

There once was a ship that put to sea The name of the ship was the Jorts and Jean The ship she rolled and her closet doors closed Oh no, where’s Jorts? Oh no!
Soon may the smarter cat come To save poor Jorts so orange and dumb One day when the butterin’s done We’ll take our leave and go
When Pam came on, she had a plan To teach our Jorts about garbage cans Pam meant well but her plans fell flat When HR said, “don’t butter the cat”
Soon may the smarter cat come To save poor Jorts so orange and dumb One day when the butterin’s done We’ll take our leave and go
Now Jean the smart cat comes She saves poor Jorts so orange and dumb Now that the butterin’s done We’ll take our leave and go
We’ll take our leave and go
We’ll take our leave and go

Additional quality memes:

A recipe for Buttered Jorts:

Recent Jorts activities:

And some very wise words from the cat himself:

This is the largest Jorts post I found before I decided to stop, and combines a lot of memes in one convenient package.

Along with cats, of course. Smartly done!

The person running the Jorts Twitter is using it to promote unions, which is awesome.

FNALLY! All the premium Jorts content in one place!

More Jorts than you can shake a stick at.

I’m paying to force seven thousand strangers to see a photo of my late husband having fun with his dog. Tumblr Blaze is totally worth it. XD

Thank-you to all of my new Internet stranger friends for being so gracious about having my post shoved onto your dashboards. I loved reading all of your kind tags and comments! Both Martin and Bosco have been gone for several years now but for 24 hours, they felt very present in my life. I greatly appreciate this gift. ❤️
