It’s things like this that make me despair about people who stick to only one or two types of social media. “Shipping” has been around for years, long before tumblr. Tumblr is 5 years old, I first heard of ‘shipping’ 10 years ago.
10 years ago. Oh god, have I really spent that long immersed in fandoms? I need to do something else with my life!
Plus it’s really not that difficult to explain to other people >_>’
America: Do whatever the fuck you want because America
Does anyone actually follow that ettiquette in England?
Because my understanding of tea ettiquette in England is: OFFER YOUR GUEST TEA AS SOON AS THEY ARRIVE - GIVE THEM THE LARGER MUG, BECAUSE THEN THEY CAN HAVE MORE TEA IN IT, AND MORE TEA IS BETTER - OFFER THEM MORE TEA AS SOON AS THEY HAVE FINISHED THEIR MUG OF TEA, BECAUSE MORE TEA IS BETTER.
IF SOMEONE LOOKS STRESSED, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF SOMEONE LOOKS UPSET, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF SOMEONE LOOKS TIRED, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF SOMEONE HAS JUST COME IN FROM THE RAIN, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF SOMEONE HAS JUST RECEIVED BAD NEWS, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF YOU ARE WATCHING TV WITH SOMEONE AND THERE IS AN ADBREAK, OFFER TO MAKE THEM TEA. IF YOU ARE MAKING YOURSELF TEA, OFFER TO MAKE EVERYONE ELSE TEA. IF SOMEONE IS NOT CURRENTLY HOLDING A MUG OF TEA, DOUBLE CHECK THAT THAT IS AN INTENTIONAL STATE OF AFFAIRS, AND THEY DO NOT, IN FACT, WANT A CUP OF TEA.
TEA.
oh my god this made me laugh so hard.
same.
The cap-locked comment is correct. One of my flatmates and I get through about four litres of tea daily (between us, although I drink most of it). The “IF SOMEONE IS NOT CURRENTLY HOLDING A MUG OF TEA, DOUBLE CHECK THAT THAT IS AN INTENTIONAL STATE OF AFFAIRS, AND THEY DO NOT, IN FACT, WANT A CUP OF TEA.” is the most accurate bit I think :P

Guys, seriously: as a fandom, we need to come together and agree not to leak things like this. I mean, home video of Martin Freeman taking a bath? That’s fucking sick, you guys. Respect his privacy. I expect better of you, Sherlockians.
Yeah I hate to be the killjoy here, but the man is just trying to have a bath in peace. It’s obviously already a struggle for him as it is, seeing as he’s too short to reach the taps, so please stop reblogging this. His BAFTA doesn’t give him this shit.
Some people disgust me to no end. Have we really stopped this low?
Sorry for reblogging this invasion of his privacy, you guys - I just want to boost the signal that some people do not deserve access to computers.
Should really give these another try some time soon - they were really tasty! (Except for the kale based salad - I didn’t try that one so can’t comment :P)
fromflabbytofit asked: Thank you SO MUCH for that link you sent me on vegetarian/vegan lunches!!!
You’re very welcome :D I hope you find them useful - the week I tried to fit all five lunches in I ended up skipping one or two because they just weren’t feasible (and also I didn’t really want to eat a kale-based salad), but I’d definitely give them a go again :D
