Dear Chandler Muriel Bing From the moment you said "And I wish to have a million dollars.", and looked hopefully towards the door of Central Perk, I knew. I knew you were gonna be the funny one, the one who will amuse everybody. And I was right, you never failed to amaze me. And I'm sorry, but at first, even I thought you were gay, when you hugged Monica who was wrapped in a towel, and actually liked feeling..umm.. her towel.? Also, you rejected women for the silliest things ever, like having big ears, huge mouth or a large head, and i assumed that you were gonna be one of the characters who's about to come out of the closet. Then you chose Janice, and I was like "oh my god!", but again, who could blame you, we all at the end of the day, are hopeless, awkward and desperate for love. But dear Chandler, If I could ask everyone, whom they'd want as their best friend, You'll top the list. You're the kind of a best friend we all can only dream of having one day. Letting Joey have his time to understand the situations and your sarcasm, going out of your way to support him, financially and emotionally. Those Joey-Chandler hugs were so precious, yet so underrated, those were the kind of moments where we smiled and cried at the same time. You're the guy, Chandler. You're the guy we look for in every other guy. To yell, "Shut up. Shut up. Shut up." when Ross screams, "Pivot. Pivot. Pivot". To save your friend from the burning pain by peeing on their leg, to forgive your girlfriend for chopping off the tip of your toe, and instead telling her that day itself that you love her, and to letting her win mostly, to avoid her getting mad..You're the man we all want, as a friend....
bath tubs that can’t submerge an entire adult body should be illegal
Aquarius: locked up in a room, reading or talking pictures of the beautiful backdrop.
Pisces: acts like the mother to all the other signs, cooking in the kitchen with Cancer.
Aries: in the boxing room, not boxing, but counting the number of punches scorpio does.
Taurus: eating the food Pisces made with Cancer.
Gemini: chatting with Leo, using a fake account.
Cancer: shouting at Taurus for eating all the food they made.
Leo: flirting with a person, via chatting (they dont know its gemini!)
Virgo: in the bathroom, bathing in a tub of milk, which would enrich their skin.
Libra: secretly spying on Aquarius, and trying to imitate their way of taking pictures.
Scorpio: punching the punching bag (taking out their anger), with Aries doing thr count.
Sagittarius: in the backyard, sunbathing, with Capricorn.

REY DOES NOT NEED A STRONG BLOODLINE AS JUSTIFICATION FOR HER POWERS. I REPEAT. REY DOES NOT NEED A STRONG BLOODLINE AS JUSTIFICATION FOR HER POWERS.
my whole heart.
PLEASE REBLOG if you (male or female) believe it is perfectly okay and natural for a guy of any age to cry
1. Ben Solo was mentally abused by a dark side entity since birth and deserves compassion. (Give me heartbreaking young Ben flashbacks). T_T
2. Rey does not have some convoluted legacy force user parentage. (She doesn’t need it. The story doesn’t need it. I’m tired of hearing about it).
3. Rey is not a force sensitive “Mary Sue” despite having minimal formal (key word) training. (I hate that this even needs to be addressed, but people seem to conveniently forget that through the force bond Rey has access to Kylo’s training. I think this is shown very beautifully through both films, particularly when she mirrors his fighting style in TLJ, but just throw in a few lines of dialogue that make this explicit for those who can’t see and think the “lazy filmmakers” just made her extra).
4. Rey and Ben have an extremely intimate relationship that includes a romantic attraction. (It’s already there. If we don’t get the payoff on that sexual tension/beautiful love story framed around compassion it will be a crime. Let Adam and Daisy earn their MTV movie award for best kiss).
:’) it’s not seasonal, is it?
it really be light outside until 7pm now, goodbye seasonal depression u dumb bitch

41 Emotions as Expressed through Body Language unique This list, while exhausting, is soooo not exhaustive; it barely scratches the surface. And each entry could easily become cliché (if it isn’t already). But, it should be enough to get you started. Want more? Start watching people (not in a creepy way), and take notes of what they seem to do when expressing different emotions. Your repertoire of expression will double in no time. PS—do not use these for actual, real-life body language reading; you will fail. These are strictly novelistic.
