me: haha oh god this is so bad im making so many unsupported claims and pulling all this analysis out of my ass
my prof in the margins: excellent analysis!
me:
when i was in high school i used to write my papers thinking wow i’m just bullshitting all of this. then like a week before my senior year ended after all the grades were set, i was talking to my english teacher and told him you know i just bullshitted every paper i wrote. he told me that while i may have thought i was just pulling it all out of my ass, i genuinely knew what i was talking about and made well-supported analyses. i only thought i was bullshitting because it didn’t take much effort and it all seemed obvious to me. if you do well on your essays even though you think you’re just making it up as you go, chances are you’re not pulling it out of your ass. you’re just a genuinely talented analyst, even if the analysis that you’re making comes from a subconscious understanding of the material rather than a conscious effort to study it. give yourself some credit.
no offense but there’s not a group i hate more than rich white kids going into thrift stores with their $99 kanken bags and their $50+ doc martens looking for cheap clothes for the (white) Art Hoe Aesthetique™ when everyone knows full well their allowances can buy out an American Apparel
it’s so funny how all these people are like “this is so rude op” but legit the kids that do this will go in there for their stupid aesthetic photos and then make fun of the kids who can’t afford anything else lol so seriously fuck them
I don’t know who first spelled the name as “Guinevere,” but I’m forever thankful that it’s the form in most common use, because other options include “Guanhumara” “Guennuuar” “Gahunmare” and “Wenneuereia”
thanks to whichever medieval person decided it was time to stop calling the queen by random horse noises
“sorry I’m late. I was just breaking into your office and clearing out your safe.”
when she slides on her knees across the floor away from the room that’s blowing up
that time she crawled across the roof of a speeding train
every single time she jumps off a building (or pushes Hardison off)
Sophie: You know normal people don’t just walk off a 20-foot fall, right? Parker: So all those times I pushed Hardison off of stuff and he was like “aaahhh,” he wasn’t just being funny?
pretty much everything she does in the Broken Wing Job
“laser trip wires in a ventilation shaft?” she asks as if she’s not definitely the reason those are there
with my school teachers it was like “omg they’re so cool i wanna be their friend!” but with university lecturers it’s like “they’re endearing and i love them like cats but are they okay because i think they know too much about 18th century german literature to survive in the world”
what, you can’t know who friedrich schiller is and also change a tire?
literally no
this would have worked better if I personally knew how to change a tire
