2018 Grinch has no edge. He’s got no bite. He’s not even that much of an asshole. He’s just a sassy gay furry with unusually nice teeth despite his famous theme song declaring otherwise.
1966 Grinch? Now that was a mean, scary bastard. He was a crusty old fuck who hated society so much that he only came off his shitty frozen mountain to commit crimes and terrorism out of spite.
Bennyhoo Cumberland Grinch comes down from his mountain to buy groceries.
You can round the edges off a character to make them more “relatable” or whatever, but you also run the risk of losing what defined them in the first place. The end result is bland and generic.
2018 Grinch is a reflection of modern society’s rejection of real character flaws in the interest of being “unproblematic” and in this essay i will
congrats OP this is literally the only grinch post i’ll ever reblog
it strikes me that some kids might not be familiar with the original grinch, and to those kids the lyrics in his theme song probably just seem vicious towards what seems to be just a regular if not grumpy green guy
back in my day we didn’t call it “shitposting”, we called it “nightblogging” and blamed the australians
I’ve been on this god forsaken website for too long.
I literally had the sensation of being slammed back in time just now
nowadays we make bad content all day
Me @ me: when you get paid tomorrow, you are going to take a large chunk of it and put it towards your debt. You literally do not need to buy anything other than gas and groceries. My god, woman, you spend all your time on your phone and Kindle anyway. You don’t even use the shit you buy. Show some goddamn responsibility for once in your life. And I swear to god if you buy another notebook…
i dont know when it happened but somewhere along the way “shipping” got a new meaning for younger folk that seems to translate to “i want these people together for real asap”. i think the media had something to do with it. but guys.
guys.
shipping absolutely Does Not mean demanding anything from people/creators. shipping isn’t about expecting and waiting for the day it will certainly happen. it is not a direct translation to Happen Or Die.
shipping means you like the idea of two (or more) people together. you like the concept. you find it fun to imagine the dynamics. you even create fanon content of it (fic, art, edits). it’s all in your head and it’s Fine that way.
is it nice to have a ship become canon? oh my god, yes. but that’s not what shipping is about and yall need to take a step back and breathe because being a jerk to people aint gonna change their mind about ships.
i stand in solidarity with the houston journalist who tweeted, on her work account, to 125,000 followers, “O’Rourke is like the guy who is all sweet and nerdy but holds you down and makes you cum until your calves cramp”
me after getting dragged for using my work twitter account to post about how i want beto o’rourke to hold me down and make me cum until my calves cramp: this is exactly like hillary clinton losing the presidential election
Small town culture is knowing that there are Old Folks with strange nicknames but never knowing the stories behind them.
Of course, I made the mistake of asking why everyone calls this one guy Brickaday and it turns out that he worked at a brickyard for 40 years, stealing exactly one brick every day and making no particular efforts to conceal the theft. Nobody thought anything of it until years later he was discovered to have built three houses.
His boss is said to have shrugged and made some remarks about the importance of coming up with a plan and sticking to it.
I‘m trying to arrange my face into an appropriate approximation of silent bafflement and failing miserably.
