Those old “Oh Chuck Norris is so strong he could beat up anyone.” memes from like 2007 are so fucking dumb. Like, I could name off at least 20 or so people that could kick his ass, for example;

  • Gandalf the Gray
  • Gandalf the White
  • Monty Python and the Holy Grail’s Black Night
  • Benito Mussolini
  • Blue Meanie
  • Cowboy Curtis
  • Jambi the Genie
  • Robocop
  • The Terminator
  • Captain Kirk
  • Darth Vader
  • Lo-Pan
  • Superman
  • Every single Power Ranger
  • Bill S Preston
  • Theodore Logan
  • Spock
  • The Rock
  • Doc Oc
  • Hulk Hogan

I can’t think of anymore but please feel free to add on

Everyone’s like “those Germans have a word for everything” but English has a word for tricking someone into watching the music video for Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up.

English has a lot more words created for very specific phenomena! It’s not just rick-rolling. Language is always evolving and it’s super interesting! Here’s a list of hyper-specific/untranslatable words in English.

This happens a lot with compound words in particular. Seriously, the construction of English compound words is so fascinating; just what you’d expect from a mongrel creole fucked-up language. And here are some more English-Specific verbs.

This is either going to be the most wonderfully educational post I’ve seen all night, or else this is five (5) links to the music video for Rick Astley’s Never Gonna Give You Up.

Jack Jack Parr and Sunny Baudelaire have the same exact energy just in separate universes

This is funny because Dashiell Parr and Klaus Baudelaire have exact opposite energies.

Given all this, and the fact that they share a name, I’m convinced that Violet Parr and Violet Baudelaire are complementary halves of the same cross-dimensional entity
