this one time I ran a red light on mistake and I didn’t notice it was red until it was too late so I just ran the light screeching like an angry pterodactyl the entire time

a cop was at the intersection so he pulled me over and when he came up to my window he was wheezing cause he was laughing so hard and he said

“ok so i know you ran a red light and that’s really bad and you should never do it again but i’m not gonna give you a ticket cause that was the funniest thing i’ve ever seen and my partner can’t get out of the car cause he’s laughing so hard he’s about to pee himself”

i forgot that i’d had my window open when i ran the red light and the cop told me that all he heard from my car was this really high-pitched “screeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEAAAHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”

and that’s how i got out of getting a ticket for running a red light

this is my favourite story of all time and im probably going to reblog it many times throughout my blog’s lifetime

It is time for a fucking revolution.

If the fashion industry thrives on newness and novelty then they are failing themselves.

If you want a ‘new twist on a classic style’ I’ve got one for you.

Make a pencil skirt for someone who is 5ft 3.

Make a white shirt that will button over my breasts.

Make a shift dress that doesn’t get ‘nipped in at the waist’.

Make a pair of shoes that won’t aggravate my ankle injury.

Make a ‘nude-coloured’ dress that is dark brown.

Make your plus-sized jeans in actual denim, not some shitty stretch fabric dyed blue.

You want a fresh take on the classics?

Try making your clothes for someone who isn’t six foot tall and a size 6.

For once.

Please.

oh and also make fucking steel-toed boots under the size mens 8 1/2

Make some form-fitting shirts that are thick enough to stop our bras from showing through.

Make sensitive skin-friendly buttons and clasps so we don’t have worry about the metal making us break out in contact dermatitis (that’s a localized rash that can easily become an infection, for the uninformed).

Make a long dress that is easy to go to the bathroom in.

Make a pair of jeans that actually fit in the crotch area instead of putting us at risk of a yeast infection (No “V”).

Make more dress shoes that aren’t heels.

Put more pockets in women’s clothes.

CREATE A FUCKING UNIVERSAL SIZING SYSTEM THAT MAKES SENSE.

Amen to all.

NO MORE FAKE POCKETS 

Make “petite jeans” be petite in length, NOT give it a slimmer waist.

BOLDED FOR EMPHASIS

MAKE HIGH WAISTED SHORTS THAT COVER MY ASS.

Make denim shorts that aren’t the same length as my underwear

Make skinny jeans for women with long legs, wide hips and thin calves

friendly reminder that Harry Potter

  1. at eleven, was described by his teachers as ‘bright’
  2. at the same age, according to the Sorting Hat: “Not a bad mind, either. There’s talent, oh my goodness, yes” and “You could be great, you know, it’s all here in your head”
  3. mastered the challenging Patronus Charm at thirteen and proceeded to teach it at fifteen
  4. resisted the Imperius Curse at fourteen and soon learned to throw it off completely, even when cast by the incredibly powerful Voldemort
  5. also at fourteen, learned to cast a powerful Accio Charm
  6. at fifteen, was training other students
  7. at the same age, under extreme stress, tested as ‘exceeds expectations’ or ‘outstanding’ in every subject that required actual magic (including the dreaded Potions)
  8. same age, cast a briefly effective Cruciatus Curse
  9. at sixteen, became a star Potions student simply by following superior instructions
  10. at seventeen, successfully cast the Imperius Curse on his first try, and used it repeatedly
  11. at the same age, cast a successful Cruciatus Curse

harrypotterconfessions:

People really united over hating Umbridge, but I saw that as a fail for Joanne. Umbridge was flat and became a token bad guy because of it. I really feel she could have had a deeper plot or reason she was the way she was. I really believe Umbridge had the greatest capacity for displaying her humanity, but instead she ended up uninteresting in that she’s evil for evil’s sake.

I don’t know about that. She’s a bigot who is desperate to hide that she’s the very thing she hates (a half-blood with a Muggle parent, a squib brother and a father she considers to be an underachiever). She’s probably got a lot of internalized issues going on. That IMO gives her some depth.

Sometimes people are willing to throw others like them under the bus if it means personal success and being patted on the back by bigots. Sometimes people in marginalized groups (or with family members in marginalized groups) end up just as bad and sometimes even worse than your average privileged clueless bigot. It happens. Not everyone who is awful or bigoted has some sad tale of abuse or bullying or tragedy behind them. Sometimes people are just like that.

OP, do you even know why so many people united in their hatred of Umbridge, so much so that she is the most universally-reviled character, even more than Voldemort himself?

It’s because we all have been subjected to a Dolores Jane Umbridge. We all have had one of those in our lives. Because the type of evil Umbridge is? It’s real. The chances of having your parents murdered by an evil like Voldemort? Extremely slim. But the chances of having a teacher or authority figure use their position of power to traumatize you because you have opinions they don’t like? The chances of having an authority figure who punishes you for telling the truth about traumas you have suffered? The chances of having an authority figure who uses their racist and bigoted rhetoric to keep you in line, and you know you can’t go to anyone else because if it’s your word against theirs well, you’re just the kid and who would trust the kid over their teacher, right? Everyone has a story they can tell, because Umbridge’s brand of evil is very, very real.

She didn’t need some sort of backstory to ‘flesh her out’, she didn’t need ‘humanity’, because she was already real to so many people who read those books that a lot of us were right there with Harry when he wasn’t sure who he wanted to ‘win’ more, Snape or Umbridge, because they were both so fucking awful. And, like lupinatic said, sometimes people are just fucking awful human beings. And to be honest, I am not interested in hearing my fifth grade teacher’s sob story. I’m not interested in knowing why she thought it was ok to watch the entire fucking class bully me and physically assault me (not just outside class but in the classroom under her supervision) to the point where I was scared to wear dangly earrings or necklaces to school, and then call me a liar to my face when I tried to tell her about it because I was so fucking desperate I was willing to be a ‘tattle tale’ just to make it stop. I’m not interested in hearing why she found her fucking romance novels more important than teaching us. And I wasn’t interested in any of that with Umbridge, either.

Frankly, there comes a time when it’s insulting to give a character a sob story and make it seem like we’re supposed to sympathize with them after all the shit they pulled. With Snape it came very very close to crossing that line, although the backstory itself was important and I could get past it for the sake of the story. But with Umbridge? It would’ve been absolutely horrible.

I love Jim Carrey. I once met him in a 7/11, and I was getting a soda, I turned and saw it was him, and he saw I was going for a Doctor Pepper, so he said “Oh did you want one of these”, to which I stuttered out a yes and he grabbed all of them and said “too bad” and brought them up to the front. Then he bought his stuff and left the sodas there, and left. Almost immediately after, he ran back in and began putting the sodas back and paid for mine.

This is what happens when Candians are let lose and try to prank people

fun fact: some of jim carrey’s scripts literally contain the phrase “jim carrey proceeds to act like jim carrey”

Okay, but imagine the first time Steve and Bucky hear the term “feminazi.” Some dudebro at a convention or public event the team is forced to go to calls a woman a feminazi, and Steve and Bucky just lose it and start yelling at the guy because they’ve lost friends to actual Nazis, and a woman standing up for her rights as a human being is not comparable to slaughtering millions of people.
