I am DYING to know what their parents are like that their kids all turned out like this
Honestly i think it would be extremely hilarious if their parents were perfectly normal. Like, scarily normal. Like whenever shows have someone being extremely normal for comedic value
Honestly i dont see how people can say yiffy came out of nowhere. She was alluded to in candy chapter 18 and is perfectly on brand for homestuck. Like, its a lot more reasonable than one of the main villains being betty crocker all along. That shit came out of nowhere. My take is that people have put the original homestuck comic on a pedestal for so long that they forgot how weird it was.
When you’re young you learn that crocodiles are the closest living relatives of dinosaurs. Then you realise that’s not true. Then you realise it actually is.
To elaborate:
Stage 1: I was taught that crocodiles are the closest living relatives of dinosaurs when I was very young. I was taught that dinosaurs were scaly and cold-blooded, and that crocodiles haven’t changed in hundreds of millions of years, and were the most similar things to dinosaurs alive today.
Stage 2: Later, I learned that, actually, crocodiles had changed quite a bit in the last few hundred million years. Dinosaurs were actually mostly warm-blooded and active, and many were not scaly but instead feathered. At this point I was taught that it was in fact birds, not crocodiles, that are the closest living relatives of dinosaurs.
Stage 3: Finally, I learned that birds are in fact a branch of the dinosaur family tree. Just as humans are not “the closest relatives of mammals” but are ourselves mammals, birds are not “relatives of dinosaurs” but rather a type of dinosaur themselves. The closest living relative of dinosaurs are the the crocodiles—cousins of dinosaurs, but not dinosaurs themselves.
