Oh, fuck off with this.

It’s then that Jake realizes that Jane isn’t mad because she’d never realized he was gone. It makes sense. There’s been plenty of times when the two of them didn’t cross paths for days at a time. The perils of living in a mansion, he supposes.

Didn’t Jane send divorce papers to Jake already? I swear I remember John being pleased that Jane sent a lawyer to his house instead of a cruise missile.

huh, yeah

Hm. That seems one hell of an oversight by our new author team. Though not one that couldn’t be explained away.

(Jane could have had the divorce papers sent on a whim, and her lawyers figured out where Jake is but not Tavros, or her lawyers could have, uh… Or the divorce papers weren’t… like, were misinterpreted by Jake or were meant for, um… …mmmaybe she thought Jake went and had a bisexual tryst with John but was completely blind to the idea that he could have had the balls to bring Tavros away with him??)

Okay all that seems pretty weak. I’m sure there’s a fairly comedic way this COULD have made sense, but. Yeah. Still seems like a big oversight.

Actually… this DEFINITELY would have been in the outline Andrew gave them, since it’s a critical story point? So it’s Andrew’s bad if anyone’s. Maybe if the team catches wind of people catching this mistake they’ll slip a handwave in somewhere in the story.

or have you considered that this is intentional, they probably know what they’re doing, and this might not be the candy we think it is?

its possible that jane is putting on an act and being manipulative because jake is extremely naive and would fall for it

Throwback Thursday to when I posted this GIF all the way back in 2013. Everyone on this site thought that this had to do with Fifty Shades of Gray and the daddy dom lifestyle, and acted like a bunch of horny fools in the replies. But it wasn’t. It really wasn’t!

I was just trying to get my work friend to come over to my house to see the funny images that I had up on my cork board. His phone service had recently expired, and the only way I could get him to see it was through Tumblr. I had done this a few times with him prior to this GIF blowing up, which soured our friendship.

I was wearing the suit because I had a formal business meeting in a couple of hours. I actually hate the daddy dom lifestyle. Please stop thinking that I’m a part of that community!!

Every villain has a tragic backstory

who else is in the “didn’t realize sheep have long tails until i was like 20″ club

Undocked unrestrained

The reason most farmers dock (cut off) the tails is to prevent fly strike, an often lethal infection of fly larvae in the rear of the sheep. Without a (VERY FLUFFY) tail for fecal matter to accumulate on, fly strike is almost completely eliminated!

there is a wide variety of similar treatments for farm animals that are entirely for the animals well being

pigs get their tail curled and tusks removed as babies so they dont accidentally nip each other while playing or stab each other just walking around- even a small tail nip might be fatal once the other pigs react to the scent of blood

goats/cows often have their horns removed as babies as well both for obvious reasons to prevent stabbings but also to prevent them from growing in weird that can cause pain and infection for the animal

chickens and other poultry, especially pet ones or hobby farms, might have their flight feathers clipped to prevent them from flying over fences, where their life expectancy is nill outside the farm/owners enclosure

Very good and valid points but please tell me what you mean by “might be fatal once the other pigs react to the scent of blood” before I lose my marbles

Pigs are omnivores and cannibals. Fun fact if you ever have need to dispose of a body, tossing it in a pigpen will get rid of it real fast.

There’s a reason why everyone went into a full blown panic when Dorothy fell into the pigpen in the Wizard of Oz. Pigs are vicious.

I started thinking “imagine if some advanced alien race scooped up humans, removed some body part, and suddenly we lived longer” and then I remembered the appendix.

Wait… the curly pigtail isn’t a natural thing?!

I read somewhere that the reason pigs are against many religions to eat is because pigs would often dig up graves and start eating peoples corpses so by eating pork you would likely be eating human flesh to a degree

I HATE Elon Musk saying shit about how we need to preserve humanity by making other planets inhabitable before Earth isn’t inhabitable… if we can make MARS, a genuine lifeless shithole, or any other barren planet near us, into a habitable planet, why not just do that to post-climate disaster Earth? The planet that specifically suits our species? I’ve talked about this before but like, Earth will ALWAYS be more habitable than any other planet because we specifically evolved to survive here, even if it gets fucked up by climate change, living on here will still be better than living on mars or the fucking moon or whatever.

EARTH is a unique phenomena and if we lose it we will probably NEVER find anything like it again. This isn’t fucking Star Trek. I doubt we’re gonna find an “M Class Planet” or whatever within close range of travel. This is the world we have. If we can “FIX” some freezing lifeless rock like Mars than we can fix earth.
