Bone Magic

REI tilthat TIL Vikings used the bones of slain animals when smithing new weapons believing this would enchant the weapon with the animals spirit. This actually made the weapons stronger because the carbon in the bones coupled with the iron made a primitive version of steel. via ift.tt skelegun F--- off egghead it's because of bone magic.

spooky

when reality feels off - leaving the theater after watching a movie - looking up from reading a book and realizing where you are - any place that's open 24 hours (bonus: going to said place in the early hours and hearing both "good evening" and "good morning") |- playgrounds at night |- arriving for an early morning flight and seeing a deserted airport with most of the shops closed |- dead malls with decor that hasn't changed since the 90s |- motels of any kind |- stopping at a gas station at night in the middle of nowhere while on a road trip - grocery stores in small towns - places meant for children's birthday parties (especially if you went there as a kid and are now older) |- little doors and attics in your house

Friendship > Ship

byjoveimbeinghumble that every Friendship is consciously and explicitly homosexual would be too obviously false; the wise-acres take refuge in the less palpable charge that it is really- unconsciously, cryptically, in some Pickwickian sense- homosexual. And this, though it cannot be proved, can never of course be refuted. The fact that no positive evidence of homosexuality can be discovered in the behaviour of two Friends does not disconcert the wiseacres at all: "That," they say gravely, “is just what we should expect."... To say Those who cannot conceive Friendship as a substantive love but only as a disguise or elaboration of Eros betray the fact that they have never had a Friend. C. S. Lewis, The Four Loves (1960) takashi0 #CS Lewis destroyed fujoshi I cannot believe

Ken Marsh - State Trooper Novelist

So far so normal, right? But then: "Steele's shoulder-length hair, chestnut brown near the roots fading to golden blond near its frayed tips, hung matted and dreadlocks-like over his neck. His auburn beard flowed untrimmed to his chest, Alaska State Trooper Ken Marsh wrote in a recap of the rescue. Like what.

Played Like a Fiddle?

quasi-normalcy Why does everyone say that they played someone 'like a fiddle'? Fiddles are actually pretty difficult to play? Why not say 'I played him like a recorder'? 'Like a xylophone'? 'Like a triangle? periegesisvoid I think it's got to do with detail and subtlety. If you play someone like a fiddle, that's like, lago or some s---. If you play someone like a triangle, you just told them there was free food somewhere when there wasn't. merrypaws I've once read the following exchange: "You played me!" "Like the cheap kazoo you are." Which in my books is a pretty epic burn if we're going to be making musical comparisons. forgottenequality Writing that one down for future use tbh

Anteater Kaiju

Since ant colonies are like tiny insect cities, that would mean that anteaters are basically kaiju. J With a purposeful grimace and a tubular snout, He digs his way right into the ground! Helpless soldiers in vain they stung, Against impending death's long sticky tongue! He whips up his snout and he shoves it back down, As he licks up the ants that are fleeing the mound! J Oh no, they say he's gotta go, Go go, anteater! Hee-yee-hee-hee! Oh no, there goes that anthill, yo! Go go, anteater! Hee-yee-hee-hee!" I Nature shows us again and again, How creatures evolved to prey upon ants! Anteater! Nature shows us again and again, How creatures evolved to prey upon ants! Anteater!
