Hows it pronouncd?

It makes me cringe every time I hear someone say it.

Hey Darkness, you could also look at naming of towns and cities and what they get named for and like how Constantinople became Istanbul and the Romans renamed Jerusalem Aelia Capitolina and apparently now they keep renaming places in South Africa depending on who's in charge. 

Basically, literally anything can be a historical study.

As evidenced by the myriad university degrees like "Medieval Russian Literature."

That's the same podcast as Pacific Northwest Stories, isn't it? I think I remember seeing that on a cursory search….

*reads as Pacifica Northwest* *is really confused as to why there's a podcast about her*

Me too. I stopped after about 5 episodes of Tanis. Never tried Black Tapes or Pacific Northwest.  Now I'm lost in Night Vale (Thanks, @TwiLyghtSansSparkles)

Hey, Shard family, thanks for putting up with me and being my friends! 

 

Gah. I started Nightvale today. I'm on episode 11 . . . Send help.

Oh, and this is for all you guys who've watched Hamilton. And maybe for people who haven't. It'd be funny either way.

Considering I have almost the whole show memorized, yes. I find that rather amusing.

And Night Vale is addictive. It's not funny, but it is amusing. And entertaining.

I would listen to a podcast about Pacifica Northwest.  

And I'm almost caught up with Night Vale...

[Oversleep]

That's two episodes in line filled with pizza, Steven Universe! Why are you doing this to me?!

I can't get hungry in the middle of the night and surely I have no way to eat pizza right now!

I always get hungry when I read/watch about food...

[Mistrunner]

I've decided to learn trombone!

Now I can learn how to play all those Chicago songs.

Oh! A podcast, narrated by Pacifica Northwest, about all of the weird crap still happening in Gravity Falls after the Pines twins left! It could be framed as a sort of audio journal that she's saving for Dipper ("you know, since he loved those stupid six-fingered journals so much") and Candy and Grenda could barge in and say hi to Mabel when they learn what Pacifica's doing.

Steven Universe:

Quote

Connie: So, why were there humanoid tracks out there? They weren't ours, and they weren't Pearl's, it couldn't have been the monster unless it's just some guy in a monster suit but that kind of thing only happens in cartoons, usually over a property dispute.

I see what you did here

[Sunbird she/her]

@Oversleep That ping-pong video totally cracked me up.

Ok, time for a bird nerd joke:

A flock of migrating shorebirds landed in a field of marijuana to rest for a few hours. Before long, no tern was left unstoned.

Thanks all! I like the idea for the original Mulan story. I never liked Napoleon (Thanks to Night at the Museum 2). I've done enough about Photography and surrealism to last a life time. My problem with important events is that I always become philosophical. I start questioning the event, why it happened, and then the stuff just gets deeper and deeper

Here's my surrealism assignment

WHY? WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SIDE-WAYS?

Anyway, @TwiLyghtSansSparkles, I think you will like this http://store.steampowered.com/app/528510/?snr=1_5_1100__1100

@Mistrunner Cool! Chicago is great. Learn "the Cell Block Shuffle"!

Hey, @TwiLyghtSansSparkles, should I try to make a glow cloud t shirt?

That's a correct and intelligent way to approach history. Because nothing ever just happens clear cut, life is more complicated than that. I wouldn't take that as a negative at all, as long as in the end you're able to condense into the parameters of the assignment. 

[Darkness Ascendant he/him]

It;s 2500 words-3000 words, I will definitely go over XD anyway, thank you all for your input, I will attempt the assignment now

Rule of thumb, you can go 10% over. But you didn't hear it from me

Meanwhile, I'll be going as Stevie Carlsberg for Halloween. Maybe I can find my Abby.

I'm wearing my Cecil costume right now. 

Black jeans, boots, tight white shirt, vest, purple tie. Gonna do my hair up, draw on my arms in purple sharpie. 

(By the way, as soon as I make the t shirt I'll post a pic)

And finding my Carlos is my new goal in life. I need someone with great hair who will come in to my life unexpectedly, and, at first meeting, knows that I'm weird AF but 25 episodes later will call on "a personal matter" and something will begin. I need a Carlos in my life. *heavy sigh*

Guys I'm watching Firefly. I'm in love. They are all beautiful beautiful people except for Jayne who is dumb as a chull but still hilarious.
