i’m watching a british youtuber’s birthday stream and an aussie viewer sent in a comment saying “why was he born so beautiful, why was he born at all? because he had no say in it, no say in it at all” which was received with confused existential horror, and this is how i just discovered that australian happy birthday songs are not universal

oops

do you not sing this in other countries?!?!??

NO we do not sing a lament for someone’s personal beauty wishing they’d never been born. That is some weird Greek tragedy shit.

In America, you’re more likely to sing that they look like a monkey and belong in a zoo.

To all the new fans who didn’t read the book or listened to the audio drama: Crowley is NOT cool, I repeat, the demon Crowley is absolutely not cool. And Aziraphale is an asshole.

David Tennant when asked which of his characters of the past resemble Crowley:
“The only character, I think, is Peter Vincent in the movie Fright Night. He’s a bit rock-n-roll and he thinks he’s really cool, but actually, he is not cool at all. He is rather soft and rather sweet underneath a very swaggery exterior. So there are elements of that to Crowley.” (NYCC)

to clear up misconceptions about Crowley being cool:

Crowley once heard that you can make plants grow better by talking to them. So he decided to put this into practice. Once a month he looks around his apartment and selects the most weedy and underperforming plant, then carries it around to show all the other plants while talking aloud very menacingly  about what a shame it was that this one couldn’t make the cut,  then leave and close the door very ominously behind him.

All of Crowley’s plants grow fantastically well because they are the most terrified plants in London. But I would genuinely ask you to consider the vision of David Tennant, wearing those glasses, walking around an apartment holding a potted plant while making Godfather-style pronouncements to other plants, before making any decisions about Crowley being cool.

hemingway once wrote a scene where a woman was masturbating, & he wrote it so that she was thinking the whole time abt how hot she was and how good she looked instead of thinking abt something arousing, & that tells me that one of two things must have been true: a) he was so clueless abt sexuality that he assumed that women must find themselves attractive rather than other people, b) he himself masturbated while thinking abt how hot he was & just assumed it was normal

With Hemingway I’d believe either.
