why is broccoli seen as this universally hated vegetable. broccoli is delicious

same with brussels sprouts! the problem with vegetables in general is that folks boil or over-steam them and all the flavor comes out in the water. Oven roast those suckers lightly drizzled with oil & salted & seasoned to taste.

A book where people wake up one day with names written on their arms and everyone comes to the conclusion that it must be their soulmate name, except it’s not and when they meet the person they hate them. they try to fall in love with them anyways, but in reality the names are the name of their worst enemy. They’re too blinded by the idea of soulmates to stop trying to fall in love so they just spend years of torture together

remember when yahoo bought tumblr and everyone was making jokes like “what if they put in tacky animated ads and make the logo look like it’s from 1998.” well

Apparently my director went to see a production of West Side Story a few years ago, and the guy playing Chino forgot his gun before coming out for his final scene. Once it got to the big scene where he is supposed to shoot Tony, he screeched “Poison Boots” and kicked the actor playing Tony until he went down. The girl playing Maria then had to jerk the shoe off of Chino’s foot, and had to do the gunshot scene asking “How many kicks Chino? How many kicks, and one kick left for me”. 

There should be a blog dedicated to theatrical urban legends. Like that opening weekend of Dracula where Dracula (still hungover) vomited all over the audience during the first stage direction that everyone has a friend of a friend that worked on the show and was there.

or the one where the bridge never came out for Javert’s suicide and so he just pretended to stab himself and then lay there until the lights went out

best story i heard was when a friend of mine saw a show where juliet forgot to bring the dagger out on stage so she just ripped the squib out of her chest and blood squirted everywhere

This is wild from start to finish

I was in Peter Pan once and one night at a performance, the adhesive holding our Hook’s mustache on was wearing off. It was near the end with a big fight scene and when he got attacked, he let his mustache fall and went “YOU RIPPED MY MUSTACHE OFF!” in a scandalized tone and it added a new note of hilarity to the whole scene (which was supposed to be funny anyway)

In my seventh grade play, which was a midsummer night’s dream, Thisbe didn’t have a sword so she stabbed herself with a coathanger

My junior year we were doing Romeo and Juliet and after Juliet poisons herself it was supposed to go dark and she’d get off the stage. well the light crew accidentally turned them back on and Juliet who was sitting up slammed back down on the wooden bed with a loud bang. To which my theater teacher says into the com “zombie Juliet” and everyone who heard that had to keep as quiet as possible while our eyes were filling with tears.

There used to be so many rabbis in my neighbourhood during the winter, and now that it’s spring they’re gone??? Where did they go? I thought there would be more now, and im sad because they’re cute and I like them, even if they poop in my gardens. Then again, there’s a coyote around, so maybe it ate the poor things.

i was really confused before i realized you probably meant bunnies and not jewish teachers

#I was with you until poop in the garden

she’s literally jesus with mascara and I love it
