What…I just lack the words to describe this.

Anonymous asked: Who gives a fuck about an oxford comma?

I’ve seen those English dramas, too!

But anyways, let’s start with the basics. Do you know what an oxford comma is? By definition, it’s: a comma used after the penultimate item in a list of three or more items, before ‘and’ or ‘or’ (e.g., an Italian painter, sculptor, and architect). Also called a serial comma or a Harvard comma. This definition can be found in dictionaries. If you want proof, type in ‘Serial Comma’ to your online dictionary of choice.

Alright, now why is it important? Well, suppose you are having some people over. You’re inviting a pack of aliens, Martin Freeman, and Barack Obama. Now, if you write it down like this: “I’m inviting a some aliens, Martin Freeman and Barack Obama.” you’re implying that the aliens are Martin Freeman and Barack Obama. The Oxford Comma prevents that from happening which is why they are important and why many people give fucks about using it in their writing.

Hello, guys!
I’ve been wandering the magical world of Tumblr and exploring the mysterious jungle that is YouTube. It’s been pretty enjoyable. However, my head is bruised from headdesking. Why? The answer is simple! Comments like this:

It’s not an “opinion” “The Hobbit” is a FAKE! It’s a copy,a failure. That’s a fact.

*sigh*

A lot of people on the internet seem to believe that The Hobbit is a copy of Lord of the Rings. As a Tolkien fan, this drives me mad! The Hobbit, if anyone cares, was written long before Lord of the Rings. Even with this knowledge, some people are STILL calling The Hobbit a rip-off. *headdesk*

A lot of the comments I’ve seen discuss characters that appear in both movies. “OHMAHGOD they couldnt evn hire nw actrs 4 doze roles.”

Hmm…I wonder why. 
Maybe, now I know this is a wild and crazy thought, but MAYBE, Tolkien wrote those characters in both books!
Maybe Gandalf and Gollum appeared in both The Hobbit AND Lord of the Rings.

In short: The Hobbit was written years before Lord of the Rings and cannot be a rip-off as it came first. Yes, children, I KNOW the latter came out in movie version before the former, but trust me on this.

pelennor-feels asked: Lestrade or Mycroft?

That’s a hard one.
I guess I’ll go with Lestrade.

Awkward. I misspelled John a few posts down. Oops.
