OW MY THINK PAN: What MSPA has made me do (weird coincidences two!)

[cardiacAtrophy]

So. I'm watching tosh.0


He's webremixing this 14 year old juggalo, and there is SO MUCH faygo on the desk behind him.


I can't stop thinking of gamzee, and I really want a red pop.


Edit: Then Shaggy and J were rapping with this kid, the kid said something, and ICP was all like "Whoa, there's a fine line between insane and lacking common decency."

I took a trip to the ocean with my brother a few days ago. While we were walking along the shore a wave washed up a little green wooden W. Immediately I grabbed it and did this. Was rather happy when my brother got the reference.

Also, I noted the other day there's a scarf hanging waaaaay up in a tree on a hiking trail nearby that's the same colors as Eridan's scarf. Absolutely no clue how it might have gotten up there though.

[PBnJ]

My mother and I were talking about why one of our dogs was covered in blood, cause waking up to that scared me really bad to say the least. She said it was the "Insane raccoon posse" I asked her why she made an ICP reference, and she said she had no idea what/who that was.
Homestuck was what made me aware of the existence of ICP.

Welp this video popped in my sub box

This video popped up for me, and of course I clicked it.
Not at all surprised what the top comment was.

[marshvegas]

I love using Homestuck jokes around my friends who haven't read it yet, so I'm just kind of giggling to myself. xD

In my science class last year, my teacher seemed to have thought that we were all ten-year-olds, so we would play stupid games occasionally. One of them was called "the Bucket Game." Everytime we played, I had to excuse myself into the hallway to laugh hysterically

I just moved into a new house. The coincidences started when we started packing however. Mom calls me down, and then tells me she marked the boxes with letters on them. I just told her okay... Then she said my boxes were marked with a BLUE E. Egbert.

Later, while we moved stuff to the car, my brother told me to help the bucket. We keep the fish in a bucket. I never realized what this meant until I had to open a garbage bag to put the thing in so it didn't spill or something. I didn't ask any questions. (To those who may be concerned about the fish, it was fine for the past few years, and is incredibly healthy despite being in a bucket)

Soon we finish moving in, after many warnings about carrying heavy items down the stairs... which kept happening.

After a few days, mom tells me I can bake cake if I wanted. Told me there was some Betty Crocker mix in the pantry. I baked Betty Crocker Brownies instead. They were deliciously evil.

Yesterday, I heard some commercial about diabetic supplies or something playing in the background. I'd never paid a lot of attention to those, but this time I caught them saying "and we'll include a free complementary Betty Crocker diabetic cookbook!"

I thought to myself, gee, that's just plain evil, targeting the diabetics first.

[Lexa]

I'm a diabetic, and whenever I hear someone say "diabetic cookbook" all I can think of is "how to cook a diabetic". Adding Betty Crocker and Homestuck references doesn't help that much.

Oh my god.
Now I will never be able to hear that commercial with a straight face again. XD

idk man, Hussie has said before that he's moved around a lot. Or is used to moving, one or the other (hell I've moved like 15-ish times in my lifetime)

[metaphysics]

In biology class, my teacher was talking about RNA and its genetic material.
Genetic material.
Thank god she didn't bring up buckets

[Needlewitch]

i put baby daves all over our living room because daves, and mum loves the little guys and even talks around the little guy i put on the phone.
every time she see's colourful things when we're out shopping she says "look, blood colours". she is the best at spotting cheap t-shirts now.

[Lexa]

Oh my god.

It's been my joke with my mom for a while. XD

[androidsGenerator]

Is it weird that kismesis is something I've kinda believed in well before reading MSPA? o.O

Also....buckets just make me laugh now ::::|

[Gakuno]

Not out of the norm, I knew someone in a love-hate relationship that was really towards hate. They'd get into massive arguments, sarcasm, snarky comments on each other's clothing, the whole shazam. Then make outs.

What.

Hey, does anyone think of Jade when they hear this song?
I mean, just listen to it!

idk, song not quirky enough/isn't there a theme song thread for this?

I once was going down the stairs at my school, and saw someone in a Hero of Life hoodie. I had to stop myself from falling down. The next day, somebody fell down the exact same set of stairs. I proceeded to creepily walk past her, quietly saying "I warned you a about the stairs bro. I told you dog."

Also, I go around my school randomly saying "HONK."

A moment ago, I was searching for a quick grammar guide to check whether hyphenated compound words were a thing or not in order to answer a question on Answers.com. This was the page I found.

Here, John, Rose, and Dave are giving us a grammar lesson, and Dave always gets everything wrong for some reason. Probably ironically.


EDIT: Oh my god. This is actually a lot funnier than I initially thought it was—funny enough I had to read through the entire site, actually.
Here are the highlights:

show spoiler

hide spoiler

Incorrect: George liked the color green; John red.

Yeah, everybody knows John likes the colours green and blue better.

Correct: John talks to himself when he is nervous.

Uh, apparently. o_0

Correct: John has all the ingredients: minced clams, milk, potatoes, and onions.

John has all the ingredients. ALL OF THEM.

Incorrect: I like you, John likes you, too.

Correct: I like Jade; John likes you, too.

Incorrect: His 2's look like 7's.

This is obviously incorrect, as no troll has a quirk of replacing twos with sevens.

Incorrect: We could not stand him whining about everything.

Silly Dave, Karkat doesn't "whine about everything". That's just the tone of voice he chooses to use regardless of the situation.

Correct: I was born on the earth.

Uh, that's actually incorrect, John. You were born in the Veil. :P
But I guess people would confuse you with Dave if you admitted you were incorrect, so... yeah.

Incorrect: Can we talk?
Correct: We may talk if you can listen to my side.

Okay, now I'm starting to get convinced John is arrogant here more out of choice than necessity.

Incorrect: He ate four hot dog's at the picnic.

how high do you have to be to eat FOR hot gods? jegus.

I have an odd urge to draw up some comic involving Roxy trying to give a guide about spelling now. XD

Yesterday evening, we watched a movie called Blades of Glory. Several things instantly reminded me of Homestuck, especially these ones:

• There were relationships between some characters which could be seen as Troll romance: Kismesis (Jimmy and Chass at first, at the end of the movie Fairchild and Stranz (HECK THEY EVEN MADE OUT)), Moirails (you could say Jimmy and Chass became this later on in the movie), Auspistices (so that Jimmy and Chass would stop hating each other, their coach sort of mediated between them), and finally matesprits (sort of, normal love for Jimmy and Katie).
• Jimmy had blond hair, and wore the color blue sometimes (Hella Jeff). Chass had black hair (but no beard), and wore the color red sometimes (Sweet Bro).
• This one and the following are less closely related to MSPA, but they still feature in MSPA and MSPA is the place where I know them from. During the qualification of Jimmy and Chass riding together, I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing played.
• This is also not that closely related to MSPA, but one of the sponsors of the competition was Subway, which I got to know thanks to SBAHJ.

I've been so kind as to make a few helpful illustrations (spoiler alert!!):

......R......
..............
..............
J........C
..............
..............
......K......
.......
..............
F........S

At the start of the movie, only a few relations are really defined. Jimmy and Chazz are kismeses, Fairchild and Stranz share a (for a humans) forbidden matespritship.
It is revealed that F and S have a rather... ruthless competition ethic, and Katie is shown to try and keep the casualties to a minimum, potentially playing moirail for either of the two.

......R......
...........
..............
J..</3<..C
..............
..........
......K......
.......
..............
F........S

Enter Coach Robert. He tries to get these two nuckleheads to work together, while Jimmy and Katie start off on a blossoming matespritship.

......R......
..............
..............
J....<T>....C
..............
....c3>/</3..c3>....
......K......
..............
....><..><....
F........S

F and S start abusing their moirallegiance and twisting it, trying to cause K to stick a wedge in between the two former rivals, now strivals (look it up via my sig, it's in my first specularnaodm).
Ultimately, their goal is to have Katie relight the ashes and throw Jimmy and Chazz into a renewed kismessitude.
I've used the scone symbol (c3>) do denote this relationship, and >< for the opposite of moirallegiance.

......R......
..............
........?..
J........C
..............
..........
...K...
......?....
..............
F..../....S

Eventually though, their issues are resolved.
They show Fairchild and Stranz who's boss, finding a new rival to hate in the process.
They win the Trollympic golden medal as a pair, and Jimmy and Katie's matespritship comes to full bloom.

This leaves a few gaps on the shipping grid though, which I've tried to fill in.
As long as J and C are moirails, the coach has lost a purpose. Perhaps he should consider more red persuasions next?
And Fairchild and Stranz' are left moiralless and unhinged. Their flaws surface and their matespritship is threatened, possibly in danger of quadrant flipping.

...
This was all so obvious, wasn't it?

• Jimmy had blond hair, and wore the color blue sometimes (Hella Jeff). Chass had black hair (but no beard), and wore the color red sometimes (Sweet Bro).

And they were taught all of their dance moves by a bald Geromy.

• This one and the following are less closely related to MSPA, but they still feature in MSPA and MSPA is the place where I know them from. During the qualification of Jimmy and Chass riding together, I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing played.

And suddenly the movie got 413 times more awesome.

[EDIT] Unbeknown to myself, I've devoted another specularnaodm (1,000th post) to shipping fanfiction. ... Revelawesome?

My niece was talking about Licorice Scotty Dogs and my mom said "Oh yeah. There's candy corn in that thing on the table."
Me and my niece ran over there and as I gave her 2 candy corns I told her "We're doing this. We're making this happen!" My mom was just laughing the whole time.

We bought a bunch of faygo when we went up to Michigan and are having a faygo party tonight.
