Do you ever hear someone say something about your field of interest that is wrong and you have to stop yourself from physically cringing but you gotta stay strong and cool cause you don’t wanna be ‘That NerdTM’?
there is no deep meaning to this, this is when I see people refering to Excalibur as “The Sword in The Stone”
Wait I though the sword in the stone is Excalibur. What is it then?
The Sword in the Stone is Caliburn, and was the way be became king. Excalibur was the sword given to him by the Lady of the Lake after he broke Caliburn fighting King Pellinore.
I have been educated today and I appreciate it
I did not expect everyone else to also like swords this much.
1) Thank you, Kap, for clearing up this misconception.
2) I am always down to be That Nerd™
Honestly I should have known this and I did not know this

reblogging because i read the article and now you don’t have to:
the 6th amendment of the US constitution guarantees you the right to a trial by a jury of peers. Specifically, peers residing in the state and district in which the crime was committed. About 50 square miles of Yellowstone is in Idaho, but all of Yellowstone is legally under the jurisdiction of the District of Wyoming. So if you commit a crime in the small part of Yellowstone that’s in Idaho, they’d need to pull a jury from the residents of the Idaho portion of Yellowstone. The population of that area is zero. So you couldn’t legally be tried there.
Relationships get so bananas when you start deciphering the other person’s love language.
Like I thought I was just acquaintances with this person because they never told me details about themselves and we just talked movies and writing . But then they made time to have coffee with me and they showed up out of breath because they ran. Like. RAN to be on time for coffee with me?
And I was like “i don’t mind waiting” cause I never want to run
But they said they wanted every minute they could get because I’m so busy usually
Which is when it clicked that I didn’t get how much they considered me a friend because I just straight away didn’t see MY signs of affection in them and went “cool! Casual buds it is.” But now that I’m seeing their signs of affection, I feel a little silly for dismissing them like that even though I felt like we could be best bros.
Anyway, some people show affection through time or intensity or commitment and not vocally. I really have to remember that!
Fyi- just in case you didn’t know.
TOUCH got a bro that likes to give high fives? Back slaps? Are they a hugger? Do they not blink an eye at cuddles?
QUALITY TIME this bro will (as op stated) sprint to spend every minute possible with you. Every second that you guys are together is a declaration of affection.
WORDS does your bro tell you how amazing and great and fantastic and wonderful you are all the time? Guess what…?
GIFTS do they buy you coffee? Snacks, energy drinks, spot you at the restaurant? Did that one key chain removed you of them? Ding ding!
ACTS are they always doing things for you? Ie: Nah bro, I got this, I can do that, need me to get anything for you, I can help with…?
PRO TIP – The way people show love is often how they receive love as well.
tiny baby harry potter telling dudley “oh yeah, well i’m a WIZARD” when dudley bullies him, because maybe if he keeps saying it then it’ll become true (and it’s not like weird things don’t happen to him, anyway)
eleven year old harry potter getting a knock on the door from rubeus hagrid and the last thing he says to his cousin before they leave for hogwarts is a resounding and cheerful “I TOLD YOU SO!”
