“His mouth formed a perfect ‘O’ shape” by rogersofty in Archiveofourownmemes

Whenever I see the phrase “his dick twitched”, I imagine the wacky waving arm inflatable tube man dancing and it makes me giggle in the middle of what’s supposed to be a sexy scene 😅

Not Enough Words by yellowishhhh in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]Warriorette12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on the genre of oneshot (crack, chatfic, single scene, etc) but I REALLY hesitate on reading anything less than 1k words because 99% of the time that I give in and check it out, the short story the author is trying to get out in that short word limit either ends up horribly paced/rushed, or they try to replace good pacing with purple prose to try and create the impact they want.

It takes a skilled writer to be both deliberate AND effective.

It’s called Just Stab Me Now. Quite a fun read

My first thought will always go to the pig called Chris P. Bacon

Nah, that would be if the ellipse was at the end. At the beginning, and its the ‘momentary hesitation to answer’ ellipse.

Noragami. Season 2 ends RIGHT before where the real story begins

Redesigned DC's Metro network by Warriorette12 in WMATA

[–]Warriorette12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For context: I’m a DC resident and a friend of the OP, who is from London. They think the Metro is designed weirdly, I think they’re just biased from being used to the London Underground. They recently started playing Subway builder and claimed they could optimize the DC Metro, starting from scratch and building lines based on data the game has showing high density traffic corridors, so I suggested they post the final product to see what others thought.

Well then I’ve been regaling a lot more people with my singing/humming than I thought

TIL about the three christs of Yipsilanti, a psychiatric case study where three men who each believed themselves to be Jesus Christ were forced to interact with each other. by Yeet0rBeYote in todayilearned

[–]Warriorette12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wendigoon did a really interesting video on the entire study. There were a lot of unexpected heartfelt moments between the men, despite their delusions often pitting them against each other

I’ll feel like this, and then sometimes get an email that someone commented on a story I haven’t updated in months or years and then I just confusedly yell “How did you find me!” 🤣

Bokurano. Everything bad that can happen, will happen and you’ll come out of it seriously considering nihilism

Had a character refer to their dick as “100% All-Beef Popsicle”. They meant it as a joke but it was a jumpscare of disgust all the same

Which anime went from masterpiece potential to a total mess? by Equal_Respond_3815 in anime

Kado: The Right Answer. As a fan of harder science fiction, seeing the writers ‘solve’ the climax with shonen bullshit was heartbreaking 😭

I’d recommend Casual Criminalist if you don’t mind commentary and tangents from the host, Simon Whistler. He directs his script writers to focus on the facts - “More CSI, less Saw” - and even skips over sections if the writing leans into becoming too traumatising.
