i really love our generation’s joke trend of like, very calm but incredibly inflated hyperbole. like nobody says “oh she’s pretty” anymore we say “i would willingly let her murder me” and everyone is just like “lol same”

i think “same” is also great and “me,” i love when somebody reblogs a picture of like, a lizard, and just says “me” and we all know exactly what they mean. the current online Humor Discourse is remarkable because we trade exclusively in metaphors and implications and nobody ever, ever says anything outright and yet EVERYBODY understands each other perfectly

The most expensive pocket watch in the world made for Marie Antoinette

This watch was originally designed by Breguet himself and has more pieces (823) than an iPhone. It’s self winding, has a minute repeater, perpetual calendar, equation of time, jumping hour, power reserve indicator, and a bimetallic thermometer – everything but MMS messaging. It took forty-four years for the original to be constructed and Breguet and Marie Antoinette both died before it was completed. Ultimately, the original watch disappeared, never to be seen again. When Swatch acquired Breguet, an Indiana Jones style quest for the watch began. When they came up short they reproduced the watch using only the images of the original. Breguet has received offers in the eight digit range, but still refuse to sell.

Dear people who keep bringing their pets into public settings like stores, restaurants, pretending they’re a service animal etc, do not bring your pet into a non-pet friendly public setting. You may be bringing your dog in everywhere because its “fun”, but that is not the livelihood of handlers. It is not fun, lucky, or wonderful that we need an assistance animal in order to function in society. While to you it is a game, to a handler it is their life and health. You jeopardize handlers when you bring in untrained dogs, creating friction in the public when you pretend the dog is there for a reason. You discredit handlers and their hard work; creating unneeded tension and question. When out with my service dog, she was barked at and snarled at in Walmart by a “service dog”. When the owner regained control, the dog pulled forward on its leash, sniffing everything it passed and licked various low-set boxes. He had a vest, he had tags– but as they say: the best uniform is action. You can dress you dog up, your dog may be the best dog to you, but it is not a service dog and effects the safety of people and other working animals. You are violating the peace, and health code of a store when dogs bark and snarl, when they sniff, lick and press everything they pass. Your presence has effect. Please do not bring a pet in a store to pass it off as a service animal; there are consequences to these actions more than, “i got in trouble and was asked to leave the store”.

Reblog if you have ever used Netflix to stream a movie or show that you own on DVD because streaming meant you didn’t have to get up.

“My masculinity is NOT fragile!!! I’ll prove it!!!! I’ll BEAT UP WOMEN!!!!”

You know when you’re watching a movie how INCREDIBLY tense the scene becomes when the music becomes THAT MUSIC? Like a person walking down a hallway isn’t a big deal on its own, but because of the music you KNOW shit’s about to go down.

That’s basically anxiety in a nutshell.

Seriously though. Imagine if real life had background music. You’re going about your day and then suddenly, for no reason whatsoever (because your brain is in charge of your background music and in this case anxiety means its timing is completely fucked up), the tense “shit’s about to go down” music starts. And you’re standing there in a paranoid panic going “WHAT THE FUCK I’M JUST MAKING TOAST HOW THE HELL AM I ABOUT TO DIE WHAT’S ABOUT TO HAPPEN FUCK FUCK FUCK”… and the answer is “nothing”. Nothing’s about to happen. That goddamn background music is lying. But it’s still going to make you tense because that’s what it DOES.

Fuckin’ background music.
