The next person who tries to correct me when I say “Happy Holidays” is going to be told Happy Hanukkah instead. Very tired of hearing, “No, it’s MERRY CHRISTMAS.” I’m pretty sure Judaism was around a lot longer than your Buckstar’s boycotting butt, Karen.
My boss once shared a great story about that. This happened when he was in a layover in North Carolina back when the “War on Christmas” bullshit was first becoming prominent. He had gone to get a pack of cigarettes, and after he paid for it:
“Merry Christmas.” “Happy holidays.” “No. I said Merry Christmas.” “Do you know what Hanukkah is about?” “No, what?” “Some people tried to make us worship their ways, so we rose up andkilled them. Happy Hanukkah.”
i love how in FL cannibalism is for the most part only hinted at like ‘ohhh they have such ‘’’’’terrible table manners’’’’’’’’ if you know what i mean’ and the player character has to put in a good bit of effort to even interact with cannibals, much less eat human flesh.
and then in sunless sea its like ‘whoops im out of supplies better eat my crew haha’
listen i don’t know anything about Fallen London but you abbreviating it to FL made me think this was something happening in Florida and as someone who lives in Florida, i was prepared to believe it
Am I the only one who really wants Holt and Kevin to have a daughter?
And by that I don’t mean I want him and Kevin to adopt.
I mean I want it to be an average day at the precinct when Holt walks out of his office with a young woman. They shake hands, bid goodbye and Jake walks over to ask who she is.
“Who’s that? Someone from city hall?”
And Holt just casually replies. “No that’s my daughter.”
And everyone in the bullpen just stops, stunned. Because he’s never mentioned it before, ever, even in passing.
“You have a daughter?”
“Yes, her name is Claire, she is 24 years of age and studying at Jon Hopkins.”
Everyone turns to look at Amy who’s frantically flipping through six, thick binders, freaking out because she has not even a footnote on Claire’s existence!
Charles: Amy, how do you not know this? Doesn’t the captain have photos of his daughter?
Jake: Yeah, I thought you investigated everyone that’s breathed the same air as the captain in an effort to bond with him.
Amy: I thought she was his notary!
*cut away*
Holt: Here is your certificate confirming you completed volume one of my mentorship program.
Amy: Thank you Captain! So official, it’s even notarized!
Holt: Yes. Here is a photograph of the notary, Claire.
Amy: Oh, I saw her in a photo with you and Kevin, I was wondering what your relationship was. Did she notarize your marriage certificate?
Holt: *looks at watch* Given that it is 30 seconds after official work hours I will permit this single personal question. Yes she did.
*cut back*
Jake: You didn’t think it was weird he had a photo of his notary on his phone? Wait, no. That’s the sort of thing I wouldn’t have questioned either.
Once
a boy looked very sadly at me after a little bit of conversation.
‘you’re so smart’ he said, ‘I feel like I couldn’t keep up’. And then he
did that sad boy face where you’re supposed to agree to tone yourself
down. So I said ‘probably’ and fucked his mate.
some top advice from a slut, here, 90% of the time when some boy looks sad and tells you you’re too ‘x’ to keep up with it’s a ploy to get you to cut bits off yourself so you can come down to his mediocre level; instead, agree with him and fuck his mate
I am a slut Wen on a dayte With Boye who would Manipulate I’m not sway’d by His saddened state- I say okay I fuck his mayte
