IF YOU DON’T LIKE DEREK WITH THE TEACHER, THAT’S FINE.
IF YOU DON’T LIKE DEREK WITH THE THE TEACHER BECAUSE OF STEREK, YOU NEED TO CHECK YOURSELF.
ACTUALLY, FUCK THAT.
I have a very good, very personal reason to absolutely loathe this entire development and…
Guys the Chris Argent School for Werewolves Who Can’t Werewolf Good is real.
GUISE WAIT HOW COME NO ONE HAS SAID A SINGLE THING ABOUT ERICA
It’s probably bad I just realized this too BUT WHAT ABOUT ERICA.
Lydia After Dark:
She was once set up on a date with Tyler Hoechlin. And it didn’t go well.
And her nickname for him was CHRISTIAN ABS.

this season has been really bad for my suspension of disbelief; each episode introduces something stupid that does not make sense w/r/t the established mythology of the show. at least the actors are pretty and there’s lots of great character moments.
If you look really closely and kind of squint, you can see that exact tagline—“At least the actors are pretty!”—below the TEEN WOLF header in the opening credits. I swear to god. It’s how we all know we’re watching the same show.
mumblo replied to your post: In what bizarro land does a school keep its supply closet next to the boiler room.
I teach HS in CA, and all of the Ms. Blake/school scenes really tested the limits of my willing suspension of disbelief.
I don’t think you need to live in CA or even be a high school teacher for that to be the case, friend.
In what bizarro land does a school keep its supply closet next to the boiler room.
Is this to discourage the shameless pilfering of black Sharpies and coloured card stock?
LADY, THE SUN IS COMING UP. IT IS 5 AM. THE STUDENTS OF BEACON HILLS DO NOT NEED THIS LEVEL OF DEDICATION.

It was good (and by good I mean pretty/Hugh Jackson-y).

Movie: never watched | whatever | it was good | I saw it and was amazing! | I THINK THIS MOVIE IS FUCKING AMAZING.
It goes like this.
The Camaro was a luxury. He bought it in New York when he was maybe starting to think that he could have something nice just for himself, something that was just his, not a tool for survival or something practical shared with Laura.
But then Beacon Hills happened, again. The ghosts nearly choked him and for a while the car was the only thing he could hold on to. He slept in the Camaro, before the train depot, most nights. When he slept at all, that was.
After what happened with Gerard, after losing Erica and Boyd, with the threat of the alphas over his head, something in him just stopped. He staked out the loft because it was better for Isaac, an address he could use when some school official asked too many questions. He traded the Camaro for a car that was sensible, less flashy, more easily overlooked in front of the school or anywhere in town, really. Practical.
He wasn’t growing up, he was shedding everything with meaning, and one day no one would even notice when he disappeared.
“I adore the way fan fiction writers engage with and critique source texts, by manipulating them and breaking their rules. Some of it is straight-up homage, but a lot of [fan fiction] is really aggressive towards the source text. One tends to think of it as written by total fanboys and fangirls as a kind of worshipful act, but a lot of times you’ll read these stories and it’ll be like ‘What if Star Trek had an openly gay character on the bridge?’ And of course the point is that they don’t, and they wouldn’t, because they don’t have the balls, or they are beholden to their advertisers, or whatever. There’s a powerful critique, almost punk-like anger, being expressed there—which I find fascinating and interesting and cool.”

This is very true - I’ve seen innumerable fanfics of people saying, “I could do this better than they did.”
And quite frequently, they do.

Fanfiction is 60% fun, 30% porn and 120,000,000% fixing canon because canon is WRONG and needs to go sit in the corner and think about what it’s done.

Actual serious reference question:
- Customer: Where are your books on nature and stuff?
- Me: Can you specify what you mean by "and stuff"?
- Customer: You know, just... nature. And stuff.
- Me: Thanks for clarifying.

“I want to stress this again: In many, many parts of the country right now, if you want to go to see a movie in the theater and see a current movie about a woman — any story about any woman that isn’t a documentary or a cartoon — you can’t. You cannot. There are not any. You cannot take yourself to one, take your friend to one, take your daughter to one.”

This makes me so fucking righteously angry. BRB WRITING ALL THE SCREENPLAYS ABOUT LADIES.
