'Till the end of the line

Mr. Darcy really had some nerve accusing Jane Bennett of not adequately expressing her love for Bingley like he didn’t spend half the novel talking shit about Elizabeth to her damn face

If anyone ever does this to me I’ll call them out on being a con artist.

Moral of the story, don’t be a con artist or you will die in a horrible accident and become a lonely ghost.

I reblogged this 0.2 sec ago but I love her clapbacks so much

Yeah should be doing this more.

I just love how she says “He does not look to be of Native American descent,” lmao.

ok but notice the trail of buckets behind him meaning he walked from the ocean through three other buckets of water before he got into the one hes standing in

Pretty sure that this implies that the reverse - a bucket of sand, floating on the water (big bucket with just a bit of sand), would qualify as dry land. That’s absurd, so I’m pretty sure that his lawyer pulled a fast one over the curse governor.

It may be absurd, but the text of the film bears it out. Davy Jones can sense the presence of his heart while it’s at sea, but not while it’s on land (indeed, that’s why he buried it on land in the first place: to break his connection with it) - yet placing the heart in a simple jar of dirt conceals it from Jones’ awareness just as surely as burial on land does, even if the jar is on a boat at the time. Suitably prepared vessels filled with dirt absolutely count as dry land for the purpose of Jones’ curse.

Then the reverse should also be true. If he buried it in a jar of water, no matter how far inland it is, he would be able to sense it. So by this logic, any container of seawater counts as not dry land, ergo, the bucket is a perfectly viable loophole.

Not necessarily. It’s traditionally a lot easier to accidentally get whammied by a curse than it is to weasel around it - I figure that’s why he’s using multiple layers of indirection here. He’s forbidden to set foot on dry land, but it’s technically not dry land (it’s a sandbar, a non-permanent landform exposed only at low tide) and he technically didn’t set foot on it (he’s standing in a bucket of water). It’s entirely possible that either one of those things alone wouldn’t make the grade.

okay but this all raises one further, very important question: if it’s specifically “dry land” he’s forbidden from, what about wetlands. can Davy Jones fight you in salt marshes? can he throw down in a peat bog?Swamp Battle?

This is the quality content I come to Tumblr for.

could he step on land if his shoes are wet?

No matter how ridiculous PotC gets I will love it. Especially when it results in conversations like this

What if he crawls around on his hands and knees, with his feet raised slightly into the air? Can he walk on his hands? Can he ride around in a litter or a wheelchair?

can he be in a wheelbarrow?

What if he flies over dry land? Like in a hot air balloon, or in the claws of a giant bird?

What if he’s carried by two swallows using a strand of creeper?

European swallows or African swallows?

What if he doesn’t SET foot on dry land, and instead just sort of shuffles up out of the sea, with his feet never leaving the ground and therefore never needing to be set back down?

my personal fav anxiety is “i’m in the wrong place” anxiety that isn’t alleviated until u see someone that u know should also be in the same place as u

Related: “I got the time/day wrong” anxiety. Same rules for alleviation.

“Class/the meeting/etc. got cancelled and I’m the only gone who didn’t get the email”: The thrilling conclusion to the trilogy. Same rules for alleviation.

favorite story: apparently, while filming “black swan,” the director would try to pit mila kunis and natalie portman against each other, telling them that the other woman was doing a better job, in hopes of making their characters’ rivalry seem more authentic. but it completely backfired, since instead of getting angry or competitive, natalie and mila would just congratulate each other on doing such good work.

Directors who do stuff like this are pieces of shit

Yeeeesssss, keep going.

I’m trying to figure out when “oh, it’s midnight” turned into “oh, it’s only midnight”

If someone calls you thunder thighs you should take it as a compliment because you have been gifted by thor and he probably thinks you’re beautiful

My heart gets heavy thinking about the giant trash island in the ocean.

Yeah england is a joke
