You Got a Friend In Horse 

YOU DO NOT HAVE A FRIEND IN HORSE

"Mario Mario" is an anachronism. He and his brother were only ever referred to by mononyms in their lifetime, like most residents of the Mushroom Kingdom at the time - multi-part names were typically reserved for members of the Toadstool dynasty, and even these were more like titles or Roman cognomina than what we would call a surname today. His putative ennoblement as founder of the "House of Mario" came centuries later as the collapsing feudal order sought additional sources of legitimacy

#mushroom kingdom folklore says that he sleeps beneath a warp pipe to arise in the time of the kingdom's greatest need #he's definitely shown up a few times but it's hard to tell if he has risen from the dead or is just in the middle of some time travel shit #historians hate him.

I like that other ducks don’t sound like that in the Disney toon universe. Donald Duck is just weird.

And I mean if it is a speech impediment or something good on him for straight up raging at people anyways

It's canonically a speech impediment in most of the series Donald is in, such as Ducktales.

I’ve never watched more than a few episodes of ducktales original or reboot series so good to know

(Daffy Duck also mockingly refers to it as such during their collaborative performance in Who Framed Roger Rabbit)

reading about the participation of children in rituals as a form of play in ancient greece and came across an incredibly charming story from julius pollux's onomasticon where a flood prevented the adults from reaching a sanctuary to sacrifice a ram to heracles, and the children solved the problem by....sticking a bunch of sticks in an apple to give it "legs" and "horns" and offering it as a sacrifice instead. it's such a charming thought and i can perfectly picture kids these days also pretending at sacrificing an apple "goat" at recess

Oh my fucking god.

JESUS CHRIST

I’m still amazed at how they got a “noot noot” to sound so much like a “fuck you”
