Puppies & Puns

I post what I like. But not often.

Not me at home sick getting emotional while watching videos about Secretariat

The sky was looking ominous so I asked Siri, “Surely, it’s not going to rain today?”

And she replied, “Yes it is, and don’t call me Shirley.”

That was when I realized I’d left my phone on Airplane mode.

Game design tip: Always use the "Search" function when updating terminology or checking your text for consistency. You will never remember every place in the text that a given term is relevant, and you'll end up missing instances in the oddest places.

Game design corollary: While you're doing this, you may be inclined to think "well, the Replace button is right next to the Search button, and it sure would save me a lot of time". That is the Devil talking.

Oh, god, yes. No good ever comes from using the Replace function. I always think of that poor author whose novel ended up with the term 'occutrousers' in the British edition because some stuffy Brit publisher didn't like the term 'pants.'

(to be clear, though, that publisher wasn’t being stuffy. as I understand it, “pants” means “underwear” in the UK)

This is a problem if and only if you don’t know how to use these tools. Want to change your character Dan’s name to Frederick? Just select these two options and you can replace all with a clean conscience. 

dear people who didn’t grow up christian: if your christian or raised-christian friends say “hey i wanna show you something from veggietales,” 99.99999% of the time they are not trying to use it to preach to you, they just want you to feel like you’re high for the duration of the silly song they’re boutta pull up

this video specifically is the reason i have this sense of humor

There is a Veggietales LOTR parody called the Lord of the Beans, and it is the best parody of anything created ever.

The Silly Songs with Larry from that movie is an Elvis parody that sets up the line “You’re no elf! You’re an Elvish impersonator!”

Every character name is a glorious pun. The Gollum character lost his magic bean when he used it to summon a 300-pound marshmallow peep and fell into a sugar coma. I don’t even know
