Well I’m pretty comfortable thinking I know more Irish people you do, and I assure you, it’s a very common topic of (usually mild) exasperation and annoyance whenever there are Americans. Of course people who making a living off American money say differently! But you can talk to almost any Irish person in Ireland and…

I genuinely thought, until this bullshit ad came out, that Warren was like 1/8 or even 1/4 Native American; like below the “cut-off” or whatever, and not raised with that ancestor’s family, but like, her mother was 1/2 or 1/4 and had a genuine connection that was now quite tenuous but was real to Warren growing up or…

Well if it makes you feel better, we - Irish people, from Ireland - do actually “say crap” when Americans play up “oh my gawd my great-great-great-granduncle’s cousin was Irish, let’s get druuunk for Patty’s day lol” it’s just no one listens. And we (Irish people) aren’t even discriminated against anymore! (Except in…

There’s also an excellent episode of Leverage about it!

If you expose an Eevee to a Lunch Stone before noon you get Soupéon. After noon, you get Sandwichéon. 

Yeah I’m very happy to talk about things like “we’re going to the huge Iron Maiden concert” (obviously, everyone is, we’re all wearing IM tees and there’ll be 20,000 people there) but not “we’re going to have a drink at X tiny bar bc it’s right beside our B&B!”. Even if you like chatting to strangers (I do), it’s easy…

I’m so glad Elena got to meet your kid and got to tell you how proud she is of you! <3 And why wouldn’t she be; you’re First Officer on Starfleet’s flagship!

I fucking love this one! Well done, ghost-Dad!

Well, maybe she’s stuck, so not in the actual afterlife? That would be boring. And maybe the book thing is more conceptual, like she’s able to “read” all of an open book, but not a closed one? It’s fun to think about!

I would absolutely be the kind of ghost to cause mischief if I disapproved of a great-great-grandfiancé.

I’m so glad your mother gets to share your sister’s pregnancy joy! I bet that baby is going to have a very loving guardian ghost!

My grandmother visited my dreams a few times after she died. She was just herself and she didn’t stay long; I think she was just checking in. I was the only grandchild there when she died, and we were close. In one of them she was fondly exasperated with my grandfather, who was behaving a bit rudely in real life at…

How annoying would it be if you got your ghost cruise all set up, dinner and all, happily enjoying the Pacific, and stupid living people kept trying to tow you off course?

Oh wow, well done, Jay! Ozzie has his own guardian skateboarder angel!

Oh wow, that’s an incredible story. Someone or something was looking out for you! Or else your Amma had some kind of sense; I wonder if she somehow knew you were in distress and dreamed about you screaming and woke thinking the screams were real? I’m so glad you had someone who was there for you anyway <3

What the fuck I’m already low-key spooked by plants (it’s their creepy roots) this story is freaking me OUT

This story is AMAZING wow I did NOT expect the worm. Huh.

Ahhh I love this one!! 

I was that toddler! “who’s the man?” Freaked the shit out of my mother. I should get her to tell me the whole story again so I can tell it here properly...

I AM GLAD YOU LEFT THAT HOUSE, DAMN
