anytime someone from the UK orders a print from me I’m delighted because the addresses tend to be charming and sound completely made-up, I just suspend my disbelief and accept that I’m sending a package someplace with a name like Bristleberry House at Ditchmallow in Brambleford-on-Cotton—incredible lmaooo I bet this gets delivered to you by a badger in a little coat
I am once again posting my ever-growing collection of towns that sound like PG Wodehouse characters:
All of these areas are places you would certainly get killed in on Midsomer Murders.
I mean these are cute but I also need you to know I grew up near a place called Nasty
this post is absolutely bafling as a british person because like 85% of these names just feel so incredibly normal to me it’s so jarring to see how non-british people react to them
you can’t convince me there isn’t some dude – sorry, some bloke named Kirby Underdale who lives near that last sign. he drives a little too fast, it makes everyone nervous, and his neighbors decide to have a sign made and installed instead of talking to him about it.
Oh man, I live right near one several of these places.
every time i start to feel cringe for being too deep in the hyperfixation i remember the intense depression i have waded through and have to remind myself that enjoyment is fleeting (so grab it with both hands), and life is for loving (so hold that love close), and if anyone thinks i’m cringe they must not be having a very good time (and i hope they can find a good time soon).
In 2024 we are all getting annoying and insane about our favorite girl characters the way people do with their male favs this isn’t a joke you need to be insane about her. More than that. More than that too
Some of us are way ahead of ya
But then I’ll be a shill for the male writer who wrote her and he’ll masturbate to all praise she gets. :(
(this is said out of sorrow rather than anger.)
What in god’s name are you talking about
Oh, it’s something that came up a lot when I was talking about my favourite characters in Doctor Who fandom back in 2013ish. (I definitely remember the masturbation comment. It was cruel.) I’m shadowbanned from tumblr on this account so I didn’t think anyone would actually see this, sorry.
