Spicing up the afternoon by letting the office vote on names for the remaining 2 book carts in the office slack.
People are getting passionate about this
We already have Dolly Carton, Louisa May Alcartt, and Carth Vader
personally I would go with Descartes and Amelia Earcart but these are some very difficult choices

Yes, these Muppets have taken Manhattan. The question now is can they HOLD it

this seems self-centered you know “stereotypical American bs” but I’m curious
#37 but there are definitely a couple I drove through or just spent an afternoon there or something#airport layover doesn't count but driving does in my brain#when i had the touring musicals job i hit like 4 or 5 of these that i hadn't before but living in the northeast means you do numbers#i have also been to 3 canadian provinces but not to mexico

unfortunately no eclipse photography can ever outdo the waffle house one from 2017
i don't even know who took this pic. the only person who claims to know the photographer was this person who uploaded it to reddit without naming them. it just adds to the mystery of it

Reblog if, no matter the size of the role, you would agree to work with the Muppets if offered the chance to do so, no questions asked
THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO FINISH THE PITCH BEFORE I TELL EM I’M IN
Recruiter: Hello, I'm with the Muppets and...
Me: Where do I sign?
Any artist who had worked with the Muppets said their call went just like this.
I only remember hearing about one person talk on a podcast about missing the chance because of a scheduling conflict. Sis was devastated. She was ready to upend her whole career to meet Kermit.
I worked at a theater that often had celebrities and once we got to do a thing with Sesame Street and let me tell you we were all blasé about celebrities but we all lost our shit about getting to work with Big Bird and Cookie Monster
Yes I have a picture with Cookie Monster. I don't have pictures with any other celebrities.
Fact: The earliest reliably dated use of the phrase “fucked up” appears in the court records of a US Navy court-martial case from 1863; the way the phrase is used suggests that its meaning was already well known at the time, but this is the first known printed record of it that we can confidently put a date to.
Additional fact: Bram Stoker’s Dracula is set in 1897.
Conclusion: It would not anachronistic for your Dracula fanfic to have a character describe the Count as a fucked up old man.

this is problematic of me (joke) but i really enjoy the splashing of french into english speech or writing. just adds a pizzazz
*adds a certain je ne sais quoi
see the problem is that despite around 8 years of french schooling the french language has utterly escaped my brain so even the most obvious set up i had created for myself by accident was missed by me. such is life.
*c'est la vie
god damn it
*sacré bleu
eh alors, c'est l'esprit d'escalier
LMFAO

“was this television program allowed in your household as a child” funny that you think my parents were supervising me in any way shape or form

Anonymous asked:
I just found your blog today can you please explain or point out a post that explains the MASH timeloop thing? I love the show but I've never heard anyone talk abt it that way before
oh yay hurray ive been waiting for an excuse to talk about this lmao sorry this is long
ok so basically maeve (my gf) and i started watching mash for the first time about a month ago and we started joking about it being like the characters were stuck in a time loop mostly because the same basic episode format is repeated over and over, because it's a sitcom from the 70s and the episodes arent meant to be watched en masse where you can start noticing all the little repetitions and plot holes and inconsistencies that naturally occur in longform tv
but then i started to pay attention to the dates being mentioned in the show - famously the korean war never technically ended, but american troops were involved in active on the ground fighting between 1950 and 1953, so the entire 11 seasons of mash have to be squeezed into that three year period. with 251 episodes occurring within 1,129 days, that gives every episode about 4.5 days of real time. so it works right? no time loop right? well wait a sec
for the first 5 seasons or so of mash they give very consistent dates about when things are happening. for example, bj arrives in korea in september of 1952, at the start of season 4. colonel potter arrives about a week after him, and talks about how he has 18 months left before his retirement. that gives us about 7 months for the shows final 7 seasons to take place in, meaning that by the episode 'point of view' in season 7 we should be around december of 1952. in that episode the pov character starts writing a letter home and in the corner he writes the date:
september of 1951. ok, could be that this episode isn't meant to take place in the regular timeline of the season - maybe for some reason its just like, a random flashback episode. but bj, charles, and potter are all present, even though none of them got to korea until 1952. now i KNOW that this is not like, the True Hidden Secret Lore of MASH, this is the writers realizing they were running out of road and turning back the clock a bit to accommodate for how long the show was running on. but play in my time loop space with me please
more talking points:
- consistent jokes about time zones and how difficult it is to call the states because "our today is their yesterday but if you call them now it might not reach them until our tomorrow and by that point our yesterday will be their today"
- hawkeye's increasing mania over the seasons and his conviction that the war will never end, comparing the camp to dante's inferno multiple times. maeve once pointed out that the closer hawkeye comes to realizing that he's trapped in a time loop the closer he gets to being institutionalized - and what does the series finale cold open onto ? hawkeye in a mental institution. the only way out is to lose yourself etc. sidenote frank also escaped the time loop by going insane and getting institutionalized
- in a war for all seasons bj potter and charles are all present at the 1951 new years party as well as the 1952 new years party
- there are three christmas episodes, two of which bj is present for even though he should only have spent one christmas in korea
- details of people's families and lives shift around - sometimes potter's got multiple grandchildren, sometimes he only has one, sometimes its a girl, sometimes its a boy, sometimes she's 5, sometimes he's 2
- we're not the first people to talk about this either, here's a good video compilation posted a couple yrs ago of time loop moments
overall ive been using the time loop thesis to add another layer to my mash viewing experience. it increases the already present sense of constant dread, anger, frustration, and disgust with their situation that the characters feel, plus it feels like a very poignant take on the united states' constant warmongering and violent existence. it really never ends, it just goes on an on. the future's been canceled by the war department- we're just gonna replay the past.
