Pirates are Theater Nerds

phillipviwasapretender if i was a pirate captain i would get a movie projector and play a movie on the big sails every friday night for my boys to kick back and enjoy some time off unless we were under attack poetfish Pirates legit did the 16-17th century equivalent of this. When things were slow, they would put on plays, act out dramas of stories they knew, or freestyle. The most preferred model of original productions was courtroom drama: "trying" each other for piracy. The "accused" would list off their many, dramatically and humorously embellished crimes, and be equally dramatically sentenced. Sometimes there was a daring escape, sometimes just a really maudlin death scene, but a good time was had by all. brujahinaskirt As we all suspected, pirates are theater nerds.

The Best Superpower

blinkpen shapeshifting is the best super power because you can have any haircut any time you want, you can turn into a hotter version of yourself, you can turn into a dragon, you can turn into a robot, you can turn into a shambling mound of abstract shapes and sulk outside your estranged father's house at night while chanting ominously about his sins, slytherin-stud This took a weird turn, but l'm still on board Quelle: blinkpen 503,529 Anmerkungen

"pop culture has gotten such a longer shelf life over the past 20 years"

lostmind3 3 elidyce Follow rcmclachlan Follow Turns out, 2000 was 20 years ago. Which is odd, since 1980 was also. rhube Follow The thing Gen-Z really needs to understand is that no one older than them is ever going to be able to estimate time correctly because the Millennium. The Millennium will always be Not That Long Ago. Everything since the Millennium will always be, in some sense, 'new'. It just broke us, OK? It was too big and we'll never quite be able to deal. A Irgcarter Follow Was the real millennium bug inside us all along? jenroses Follow yер. porcupine-girl Follow I think at least part of this is that pop culture has gotten such a longer shelf life over the past 20 years. You can listen to a Top 40 station now and hear a song from 10 years ago easily, even songs from the 80s or 90s on special occasions (which might just be the Nineties at Noon or whatever every single day). A Top 40 station in the 80s? Played the current f------ Top 40 and that was it. You were lucky if you heard a song that was one year old, definitely never ten. I was born in 1979 and heard almost no music from before I was born until high school or college. If you wanted to hear anything older than a year, you had to listen to a classic rock (late 60s to 70s) or oldies (50s to early 60s) station. There was nothing earlier than that on the radio. A restaurant was playing What a Feeling, from 1983. 28 years before my son was born. That's the equivalent of hearing a song from 1951 in the late 80s, which just did not happen. Even for an oldies station, it was hard to find anything that old. VCRS were just getting big in the mid-80s, but there was a limited selection of videos you could buy (or even rent) for them. Most video rental stores didn't bother to stock TV shows, it just wasn't worth it. (Few shows were even released on VHS.) So you could generally watch recent movies and "classics" but if you were looking for some random movie from the mid-70s - that's only ten years previous - you were mostly out of luck. Imagine looking for a movie from 2006 right now, and you can find maybe the top- grossing ones and a few that won Oscars, but Night at the Museum? The Devil Wears Prada? You're s--- outta luck. That's what it would have been like looking for movies from 1976 in 1989. So for those of us who grew up in the 80s and early 90s, pop culture had a hard limit of about a decade, if that. By the late 90s, the internet was good enough that music was starting to stretch that, but you still couldn't really get video through the internet and DVDS were still catching up in terms of what was available. You didn't really get entire seasons of TV on DVD until the early 00s - the first season of The Simpsons, which aired in 1989, wasn't released on DVD until 2001. Anyhow, I think that's why a lot of older millennials and Gen Xers are having trouble wrapping our heads around the idea that the year 2000 was almost 20 years ago. Because we grew up in a world where if you heard a song regularly, or watched a movie or a TV show that wasn't late-night reruns, it had probably been released within the past 5 years, and almost definitely within the past 20. Our brains haven't quite gotten used to hearing a new song followed by a 30- year-old song on the radio and not just being able to find any decade-old movie at will but seeing gifs of decade-old movies almost daily. Our brains think that means those things must still be new. lostmind3 Follow I have never heard anyone explain it so clearly before. And I LIVED it. Source: rcmclachlan 214,666 notes
