I had this list figured out for Thursday List of Doom but when I started typing I realised it was wrong. It was things I’ve seen online this least week that that was petty and stupid and worked against people being better towards other people. But the list, it was petty and stupid too. Which can be fun, I’d be the first to admit that stupid things can be fun. It just was the wrong kind of stupid. So go on with your lists about how to make non-Harry Potter fans pissed and abandon you just because you can’t accept people who don’t share obsessions. It’s your choice.
My choice is this: I’m going to count down until tomorrow when there’s a new QI and learn stuff. And eat some cookies. I got cookies today.
However, one thing on this list I need to address. Animated gifs with subtitles and where the person is seen to speak only two syllables out of a complete fucking sentence. Stop doing those. They’re annoying, idiotic and has no fucking function what so ever. Do a gif or do a fucking captioned snapshot. Not both. Because of the previous mentioned reasons but mostly because it looks like shit. No animated shit, which is worse since it’s shit times the number of frames.

The cognitive dissonance: I am at once wholly and completely with you on this gif matter, and yet I do believe I have used them a time or two. This is what Shirley Jackson’s The Lottery is all about, isn’t it.
