my classmates spouting shit about how our racist ass team name shouldn’t be changed and then turning to me in an effort to get the speech and debate kid to back them up

me: what’s the opposite of low? (High!) And what do you call this part? (Knees!) Put ‘em together, it’s addition time - (Knee highs!) - No, high knees… Get ‘em up high, and then up even higher - it’s not a lot to do. Show me your dreams, your sky high desires! You have to get your knees so high like a plane! High like a mountain! High like a stoner, 420! (don’t do drugs.) High like a very tall building where the elevator ride makes you dizzy, don’t get in a tizzy, just knees up, knees up, knees up, don’t stop, sharks have to keep on swimming or they die. Knees up, knees up, knees up, don’t stop - up to your shoulders, up to your eye! Keep on going, but look at this graph, and see the truth. The answer is so simple it’ll make you laugh - the higher you can get your knees, the more you succeed! The more you are liked! More, more, more! (Correlation is positive.) More self esteem, I can walk into a room and say “Hey, look at me - yes, you - look at me! I’m great, and smart, and nice, and we should go on a date! I’ll pick you up at eight!” Sorry that was forward… Wait… Yeah? Cool, alright, sweet! Yeah… I’ll- I’ll see you then! (ohhhhhhhhhh!) Knees up, knees up, knees up, knees up, she said yes ‘cause my knees are high - also ‘cause I got this twinkle in my eye! I’m so happy I could die, but the higher I can get my knees, the more I succeed! The more I am liked! More, more, more! (I can’t believe you got a date.) My moves are good, and I’m proud and I’m pretty, and I’m feeling really good in Baltimore city, and my mood is high, just like my knittys, and you wanna know why? ‘Cause I’m doin’ my ditty! It’s high knees, high knees, high knees, high knees, h
psychic: what the fuck
this screencap had huge meme potential, so i made template out of it
I don’t even go here but I’m still so angry about what happened to Hunger Games. The CLEAR allegories and political messages that were swept to the side and/or completely ignored in favor of a cool sci-fi dystopia story and a love triangle. The casting of a white adult Katniss. The REMOVAL of all (or nearly all) disabilities from the movies. How every fucking YA book jumped on the hot new trend of Rebel Girl Against Evil Society yet NONE of them managed to grasp that the Hunger Games dystopia wasn’t MADE UP based on some bullshit Hogwarts House sorting type system. And it wasn’t some bullshit teenage wish fulfillment fantasy about being Special and teenagers being The Only Smart Ones but rather Katniss is caught up in a groundswell movement that is so much BIGGER THAN HER. How when the movies came out corporate America started making fashion & beauty “Capitol” lines in a hilariously devastating display of irony. How nobody liked Mockingjay because it was “too dark” as though that wasn’t PRECISELY the point. How Katniss Herself was written off as though she’s just a Mary Sue action hero and she was “annoying” and not uniquely gifted because she had STRUGGLED and STARVED and learned how to survive the hard way and she was ANGRY. It basically inspired a new genre and yet all of these books were so pale and uninspired in comparison and the movies though they largely follow the plot somehow STILL managed to miss the point and the whole message was lost because of both these things.
“needless to say, we’ve taken time
used it to make our smiles align
still your emotions changed on a dime
our love was red, the world was blue
love was impatient, now we’re through
there’s only one thing left to say this time:
i hope you’re fine
goodbye”
- made me read the phrase “clark gable so thick”
“I bore this burden. For you.”
