I remember all the Doctor Who fanfics I used to read where Rose often got badly stereotyped as a damsel in distress whom the Doctor had to swoop in and save and smooch but the way I remember Doctor Who 90% of their relationship was the Doctor just setting Rose loose on people who had done something to offend them and sitting back giggling in the corner as she shouted
This one time at work, I was training someone and the system froze so I decided to have some small talk and I asked her if she had any kids or anything (she was older) and she started crying. She asked me if it was cool if she went to take a walk to get some air and I told her okay because I mean what was I supposed to say? Anyways, she came back clearly still upset and told me that her husband left her for one of her daughters.
After that, I kept all my conversations strictly work related.

Bitch whet
I once had a customer ask for a drink and asked me to add extra vodka because she had a bad day. I had the bartender do it for free (because my brother was bartending) and I brought it back and asked her what was her bad day (because usually it’s like work sucked, just a long day, or they work at the hospital nearby) and her sister shook her head at me and the customer goes “our dad died today” and I just went “oh my god do you want some soup” because I’m an idiot
this one time a friend of mine working at a call centre selling credit cards hit a number listed for a man’s name a and a woman picked up. She asked what did she want with her husband, and she hit her with the usual script for what she was selling. Woman says ‘if you wanna talk to my husband, you’re gonna have to find him in the graveyard’ and she dead ass asked her “oh, is he an undertaker?” and ofc the woman answered ‘no, he’s dead’
She gie’d her mammy a cake, she turnt intae a big bear, and her old yin tried tae dae her in. If that’s no pure mess, I don’t know wut is. Simples.
I’ll be honest, I got the first part of that, and the last part. But there is an entire sentence in the middle, that evidently is about her father trying to kill her mother, that sounds completely unintelligible to me. I assumed it was another language – potentially Gaelic but honestly, I’ve never heard that spoken before so I was taking a guess there.
I watched Brave and had absolutely no trouble understanding the entire movie so they’re definitely increasing the accent here for comedic value. But also it’s not just an accent – that second part of the first sentence isn’t understandable even transcribed.
I’m
a weird one though – I grew up in an asian country (not white), and
somehow despite multi-lingual parents and siblings (as is expected in
that asian country), my only and mother tongue is English.
It’s no Gaelic, it is however Scots 🙂
“Big Yin” is a common Glasgow term, and this is important, cause Billy Connolly who voiced her Da, is from Glasgow. It’s also the name was known by during his rise to fame, and is still affectionately known as “The Big Yin”.
It basically means “the big man” (note: a person does not need to be tall or large in stature to be called the big man, sometimes it can mean something else like “boss” or “strong personality”). So yea. Was a nice wee addition to her dialogue, though they’ve made her more Weegie for sure.
Are you saying “The Big Yin” could also translate into “Big Dick Energy”???
Abso-fucking-lutely.
It’s funny that what to me is Elsa’s blissed out face. She looks high as fuck. Good for her!
A little old fan art I made of Princess Peach and Princess Daisy.
Peach
is wearing a regal late victorian inspired dress and umbrella, while
Daisy is wearing a fun and sporty edwardian inspired dress (perfect for
playing tennis).
okay so like humans sleep better in the dark right? because light effects melatonin production or whatever. if vampires are nocturnal, would they sleep better with the lights on? would light’s effect on melatonin reverse because of different circadian rhythms or something?
Not really, animals like bats prefer to rest in dark places during the day, I assume same thing applies with vampires.
