Mediocrity at its Finest

its so funny to me that every time theres a x files myth episode its like 'damn how could this get any worse' and then alex krycek shows up. every fucking time. dire situation? oh yup theres krycek. need help with something? youll never guess who the only one who can help is. someones blackmailing you? yeah haha its just krycek. guess who has the information you need? yeah you know. whos gonna show up and randomly help you? yeah hes gonna betray you seven seconds later too. oh you thought he died? haha nope theres the ghost of krycek. its always krycek. i remember watching the s8 finale and that car runs over someone and i was like 'lmao its probably krycek' AND THEN IT WAS. ITS ALWAYS KRYCEK. you cannot escape him. you can never escape krycek. villain (?) of all time.

I don’t think we’re rick rolling each other enough anymore. 1. it CANNOT die out 2. this under saturated market is perfect for unsuspecting victims who’ve been lulled into a false sense of security. be the person you hate. bring back the dastardly link

someone actually studied the falling Rick Roll rate for their Ph.D dissertation recently and published the paper

okay but this made me wonder if there was actually any academic literature on rickrolling and YES THERE IS this is a paper about rickrolling WITHIN academic literature. As in, studies that attempt to rickroll the people reading them. Best part is no one is going to believe me and click that link even though it’s 100% true.

My friend's book is mentioned in this paper!!

There is no earthy way of convincing anyone that the rickroll study link is real. But for what it's worth. It is

I have a new goal in my almost-finished PhD dissertation.

Second link's good guys, truly

Teaboot's right, there is basically nothing on earth that could convince me to click the second link. I genuinely believe it might be real, but i'm not touching it.

“Chris Carter says he’s pretty sure Mulder and Scully will be in the x files reboot” Chris Carter doesn’t know anything!!!! He’s openly admitted that they slapped his name on there as executive producer without a single bit of involvement in the reboot!!!!

mulder fascinates me for so many reasons but one of them is his genuine interest in/fondness toward the idea of aliens while he firmly believes that they are what took his sister. he has every reason to think that aliens are Pure Evil Sent to Destroy Us but instead he approaches the topic of extraterrestrial life with interest and nuance and even enjoys things like silly alien-shaped mugs and area 51 merchandise. personally if i thought aliens took my sister i would be really pissed off at seeing alien bumper stickers treated as quirky souvenirs, but to him, part of wanting to believe means believing in good and bad and the possibility for each individual, human or not, to choose, and that's what makes the search for answers different than a revenge quest.
