DID YOU KNOW THAT “HECK” IS A COMBINATION OF “HELL” AND “FUCK” A WORD CREATED OUT OF TWO BAD WORDS THAT IS TREATED AS THE LAMEST WORD EVER WHEN IN REALITY IT IS DOUBLE BAD
JUST LIKE “SHUCKS” IT’S A MIXTURE OF “SHIT” AND “FUCK” AND THEN YOU REALIZE THAT GOOFY USED TO SAY THAT ALL THE DAMN TIME
I FIGURED THOSE BOTH OUT AT 4:37 AM IN THE MORNING EATING A BOWL OF MAC AND CHEESE IN THE DARK
I AM TOO HIGH FOR THIS
like a double negative, it cancels itself out, it is a safe bad word now
honestly a good partner isn’t necessarily someone who loves the exact same things you love but rather someone who is willing to listen to you ramble on and on about a particular subject that you’re passionate about even if they have little to no interest in it
imagine being the first amish bitch in your village to like get your body done like ass shots titties done and like beat face contoured… and then you walked into like the saloon or whatever amish people have and everyone dropped their irish fiddles and was shookedt? like everyone churning butter was just in shock and you walked across the artisanal wood floors in your wantmylook.com thigh high lace up heeled boots like your life depended on it… yes god
my mans jedediah looks away in humility but you KNOW he’s churnin butter that night……milkin a different cow…..
Why y’all doing this when you know the Amish are not here to defend themselves.
the Amish can definitely defend themselves they got rakes
this is the best post on this website why do we all keep trying
I had a dream where a girl had this like, big horrifying bone creature on a leash, like it looked like something out of Dark Souls
And another lady was like “Oh my, what breed is he?”
And she was like “Eldritch!”
And then the bone creature took out a coin from a socket on his forehead and held it up to the other woman and said “Tell me your name”
And the girl walking him was like “No, down boy, don’t”
And the other woman went “Susanna” and then a bunch of smoke started billowing out of her eyes and ears and the coin flew up and started burning into Susanna’s forehead
And the girl walking her was like “I’m so sorry, he’s not usually like this! What’s gotten into you today!?”
And Susanna was like “Oh it’s fine he’s adorable” while she started rapidly aging and the bone creature was starting to grow muscle and skin
PSA: journalists aren’t supposed to put names in the headlines if the person isn’t a public figure. It’s not a matter of maliciously not giving credit
^^^as a journalist, this is something that bothers me ALL THE TIME
A friend of mine on Twitter explained this the other day, so to elaborate based on what she said: If the name is not instantly recognizable the way a public figure is, then putting the name in the headline isn’t going to bring about any sort of recognition or connection in the reader, and doesn’t do much to draw the reader into the story. But something like “local teen” does create a connection by tying the person into the community, and encourages the reader to learn more about what this local teen has done. The name will be in the article itself, after the headline has done its job at getting the reader to look into it.
It’s worth noting too that usually, according to the Inverted Pyramid writing style used for journalism where the most important information is shared first, the person’s name is usually in the first sentence of the first paragraph.
Whenever I see someone get up at arms over a headline that says “Local Teen” and the first comment is “SAY THEIR NAME” I’m always like “hey, thanks for telling every journalist present that you don’t read articles and just skim headlines.” Really makes us feel appreciated.
