Haha! So funny Why HT Is So Passive Aggressive story. In my hometown there are little spaces in one of our newspapers where people can write maybe 50 words about something good or bad that happens in the community. So like “Thumbs down to Richland Township/the guy who stole my lawn gnome/the grocery store owner who doesn’t let kids play in the parking lot.” Ppl are allowed to sign it their name but they always sign it “Disgruntled resident of 87 years” or what ever, and never mention specific people’s names who the issue is with. And then people will actually submit thumbs downs about what people said in last week’s thumbs downs. And writing these is a totally normal way of dealing with issues. And reading these is a genuine way that my family keeps up with the community. And people wonder why I turned out so passive aggressive.
(besides the vague yet powerful thumbs down drama, though, the thumbs ups are very sweet! A kindly person saved a family with a malfunctioning motor boat on our lake last week)
The only reason my family gets the penny power is to read the thumbs ups and downs. Priceless.

If you don’t get this reference, you’re too young for tumblr.
are you fucking kidding me pixar puts out a movie ever year a baby would get this reference
it’s not pixar it’s a reference to that time in 1994 when lamps became sentient humanoids
many were lost that day
It was a grim day for mankind. My parents took refuge in a cave and thus saved us from certain death; we lived close to a lamp factory at the time and the surrounding region was utterly devastated in the conflict.
My brother fought one off using only an egg whisk and a pogo stick.
Only 90s kids remember the Lampocalypse
My father still has the scars from where one stole his kidney
I would say it was dark times, but, you know, with all the lamps it was actually quite bright.
