During the first season or two of Roseanne, Roseanne Barr was treated horribly by the producers, who wanted to get rid of her, even though she was the creative genius behind the show, which was based entirely on characters she had developed. She went with “success is the best revenge,” working extra hard to make sure the show hit the #1 spot, knowing at that point she could seize creative control. She hung out with the crew and supportive castmembers (including John Goodman, who flat refused to do the show without her), and put a list on her door. That list had the name of every single person who worked on the show. When they pissed her off, she’d cross off their name in red. Everyone in red was to be fired the second she was in charge. She took this policy from Machiavelli, and she made good on it. Her first move was to fire everyone who had tried to shut her down. She also promoted a number of women writers and fired a number of men writers for being sexist. So, this shirt is no lie.

*takes notes*

My grandmother and I had a conversation about this during brunch today. We both agreed that Rosanne is who we should all aspire to be

i have an incredibly hard time believing the fact that the phrase “i will face god and walk backwards into hell” was created by dril and not taken from some 16th century literary epic

Alright, I had to do some research on it to confirm

The original dril tweet was posted in May 2012

And Google Trends indicates that this is a rarely searched term, and never searched before the dril tweet

This would seem to indicate that this iconic phrase did, in fact, originate with dril and not beforehand, and I think that’s beautiful because future generations will learn about this literary masterpiece that came from Twitter
