fucking tired.
My boy lost his stamina, and you can't tell me it's not because Buford carries him everywhere

Alexander the Great would see the sword in the stone and just smash the stone open with a big hammer

Summary of the Gordian knot below
Also can you reblog for sample size and put where your from in the tags? I really thought this was more common than my friends are leading me to believe
The Gordian knot was a famously un-untieable knot back in the days of the ancient Greeks and if you could untie it, it was said you were destined to rule all of Asia. Alexander the Great came up and solved this by chopping the knot in half, then going on to conquer Asia and most of the known world at the time

How the actual fuck do you store your earbuds without them cosplaying as the Gordian Knot 5 min later?
