Scooby Doo (2002) dir. Raja Gosnell

you know what there were a lot of jokes in this movie that went over my head as a kid

somebody asked for a video of tommy talking so here it is

How are penguins not extinct?

aka “A attempt at resolving/achieving something with less effort than is required for success, & a high probability of it proving merely futile & faintly unpleasant’

noun the belief that the universe is conspiring in your favor; the opposite of paranoia.

My hole, my fish! This is my fish in the hole! What are you doing? The audacity!.. [fox runs off, then returns] The audacity!! Why are you like this! You can’t be this fuckin shameless! Dude!! [fox jumps slightly, but doesn’t run off] Have some decency! Where are you– Who asked– Damn.  [fox tries to steal the fish again] The audacity!!! How dare you? Don’t eat. Don’t eat! Don’t eat!! Off! This is my capelin! My fish, I’m telling you! My fish, my hole! [fox starts digging, the man watches quietly, then laughs] You’re quite a character. Aight, take, take it. [fox finally takes the fish] Good boy. This is for your digging trick. Good job.

Crews: …you only have a few shots at success. You only have a few chances to make yourself a viable member of the community. I’m from Flint, Michigan. I have seen many many young black men who were provoked into violence, and they were imprisoned, or they were killed, and they’re not here. My wife for years prepared me. She said, “If you ever get goaded, if you ever get prodded, if you ever have anyone try to push you into any kind of situation, don’t do it. Don’t be violent.” And she trained me. I’ll be honest with you it was the strength of my wife who trained me and told me, “If this situation happens, let’s leave.” And the training worked because I did not go into my first reaction, I grabbed her hand, we left, but the next day I went right to the agency. I have texts, I have phone conversations, and I said, “This is unacceptable!” And I told them how -you know- I almost got violent, but I didn’t. And I said, “What are you going to do about this predator that you have roaming your hallways?” And -you know- I was told, “We are going to do everything in our power. We are going to handle this Terry. You’re right. It is unacceptable.” And then they disappeared. Nothing happened.

This shows that anyone can be a victim of sexual assault, even a tall, strong, hulking guy like Terry Crews. And I hope him coming forward with his accusations convinces other victims to realize that it being a victim isn’t something to be ashamed of and to take down their attackers, and push the justice system to FINALLY take male rape and assault seriously.
