We'll Have The First Results Of The French Legislative Election In 5 Hours. On The Off Chance That Someone

I don't remember the context, except that it's definitely in a book by either Neil Gaiman or Terry Pratchett, but there was a hair salon that went through a litanie of names, all of them some sort of pun. I also don't remember any of the puns in English, but one of them in French was "Je fais ce que Cheveux". It's been my answer ever since when someone asks rude question about my hair.

Anyway I want to know all of the puny coffee shop names now. They're second-hand names. They should be in a pun shop.

I’m so happy that people seem to like my procrastination fixation activity

”Hey Kellin, your mother was a whore!” is still one of the funniest and most batshit lines in Malevolent because it comes directly out of left field. Whores are literally never referenced again (except as a callback to that line, which happens the very same episode). John nor Yellow nor the King ever make reference to any other hypothetical whores or slutshaming in any regard. The Entity just decided to be a bitch like that. It’s like a preteen who learned precisely one swear and is trying to shock you by saying it as loudly and as clearly as possible to get a reaction out of you. Who taught him those words. Where is his mother.

this is by far my favorite safety/warning sign btw. they really went off with this one

“Vimes and Vetinari exchanged looks. Sometimes Carrot sounded like a civics essay written by a stunned choirboy.”

Everyone is for a descriptive approach to language rather than a prescriptive one, until there is the slightest disagreement abot the meaning of queerbaiting. At that point, you'll have the smuggiest people in earth acting like the meaning has been uncontroversially established through decades of academic consensus, and any dissent is tantamount to denying Gravity.

I re-read the book as preparation for season 2 and it is, in fact, in Good Omens.

The fact that in the year of our lord 2019 Aziraphale didn't know know what an answering machine was tells me that he hasn't called anyone else in his entire life.
