That One Where We’re Still Not Sure If Mitt Romney Owns A Gun, Which Is Kind Of Scaring Us A Little.
oh man the title
Snow White and the Huntsman: An Illustrated Summary
Spoilers, hastily drawn pictures, and I still have no idea how to draw people kissing.
Here’s the thing about jokes. They only work when they’re aiming up. I wrote this in another piece recently, but I’m just going to plagiarize myself: People in positions of power simply cannot make jokes at the expense of the powerless. That’s why, at a company party, you never have a roast where the CEO is roasting the janitor (“Isn’t it funny how Steve can barely feed his family? This guy knows what I’m talking about!” [points to other janitor]). Because that would be GROSS, and both janitors would have to work late to clean up everyone’s barf. Open-mic comedians, I know you think you’re part of some fresh vanguard in alternative comedy who just discovered that a lot of black ladies don’t like it when you touch their hair, but pleeeeeeease just stick to stuff about how your stupid girlfriend is a bitch. (Just kidding. Please never speak again.)
By far the nerdiest request I got.
“Please recreate the poster for Star Wars IV Special Edition with John as Luke, Terezi as Obi-Wan, Karkat as Leia, and Vriska as Han. Keep the trolls as their regular gender, but change everyone’s costumes. Replace Star Wars title with the title Home Stuck (same font).”
I tried to match their expressions as closely as possible, especially with respect to the full, luscious, oddly shaped lips.
“If I see the real thing in Natua should I tell you about it?
“You won’t have to.”
“Why not?”
“You’ve got a pretty bad poker face.”
you know I wonder if back in the day when The Final Problem came out Victorians were sending out letters with “Dear sir, have you read the latest Holmes story yet? I simply cannot handle it. I have cried an unseemly amount of tears. I cannot. Oh God.” and then there’s just a big ink scribble because keysmashing wasn’t an option
