Well, I Just Reblogged Christmas Antlers Wilf, So I Suppose I Must Also Reblog Christmas Antlers 12.

Well, I just reblogged Christmas antlers Wilf, so I suppose I must also reblog Christmas antlers 12. 

Hey, wait a second, are those the same antlers? Okay they aren’t, but I can’t help but wonder if the Tardis wasn’t at least inspired by Wilf... 

Antlers Appreciation Post

”You are a time-space machine. You’re a vehicle! I’ve never asked you to cheer me up with hologrammatic antlers!”

More pretty multifandom Christmas art :) 

Ooh, and 42 easter eggs? Challenge accepted. 

Okay so I don’t know all of these fandoms but I’m just going to go through the ornaments, top to bottom, left to right, and make my best guesses. I should put it below one of those cut thingies in case anyone else wants to play. 

1. Illuminati pyramid with a top hat. 

2. The One Ring

3. A tribble, perhaps? Or it could be wookie fur. Nah, I’m going with tribble.

4. Jack Skellington

5. The Death Star

6. I believe its name is Totoro?

7. Star Trek logo/badge

8. It’s not the right shape to be the Iron Man thing... Is this that from that Detroit Become Human thing people have been posting about? No, those robots have circles on their temples. Gah, it looks familiar and I’m probably going to be kicking myself later, but I’m not getting it. 

9. Deadpool

10. Sherlock--Moriarty’s apple

11. EXTERMINATE! DECORATE! WAIT! It’s a Dalek :)

12. The Starship Enterprise

13. The Golden Snitch :)   (Is that capitalized? It might not be capitalized.)

14. The Cheshire Cat

15. Na na na na na na na na Batman!

16. Anything hiding in Scooby Doo, aka the classic eyes in the bushes?

17. Okay so this is the hippo/horse thing that I didn’t know what it was last time I reblogged something from this blog, but upon scrolling further through this blog I learned it is neither hippo nor horse but is rather a “moomin”. 

18. In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit... Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, but a hobbit hole, and a hobbit hole meant comfort. 

19. Iron Man (is it two words or one, like Superman? Ironman?)

20. Hmm.... clearly a spaceship but I’m not sure which one. I’m thinking Star Wars. 

21. The “N” seems to go with the “R” and the “U” below it, spelling “RUN”... Oooooh it’s Stranger Things, I get it. My first thought was still “Run, you clever boy, and remember”. 

22. The Deathly Hallows

23. The Avengers’ logo. 

24. BB-8

25. Sherlock’s home address

26. Waffles, to go with Stranger Things in #21

27. I think that’s one of the Game of Thrones house logos--the “winter is coming” one? Are they the ones with the giant wolves? 

28. No-Face, which admittedly I mostly remember from Adam Savage’s cosplay. 

29. Hmm... um... The pufferfish from Finding Nemo?

30. Platform 9 3/4, of course. Train leaves at 11 o’clock sharp, no time for dilly-dallying.

31. R2-D2

32. The Elf on the Shelf? No, this one is less creepy. Is it the one from the Rudolph movie?

33. Definitely Star Wars. Is that Han Solo’s one, the Millenium Falcon? I think so.

34. I am (baby) Groot.

35. Mjolnir

36. The Tardis! 

37. Continuing the Studio Ghibli theme, is that the Kiki’s Flying Delivery Service kitty? 

38. The Polar Express lantern?

39. The Infinity Gauntlet

40. Captain America’s shield

41. A book on palm reading?

Oh dangit I’m one short. Did I miss one? How did I miss one? I’m still not seeing it--oooh wait, is it just the fact that there were 42 things, and 42 is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything? Okay that’s what I’m going with since I really don’t see anything I’ve missed. 42, the number of items itself is the reference, final answer. 

Well that was a fun multifandom quiz! I hope other people do it, too. I want to compare results. 

I wish you a very fandom Christmas! *_____* (It’s may be a little bit late, but anyway!) P.S. Can you find all 42 “easter eggs” on this Christmas tree?

Merry Christmas from the Christmas Wilf :) 

Also remember the other day when I said Leela was on my top 10 companions list? Wilf is definitely on the list as well. (Actually, who am I kidding, there’s no way I could actually pin it down to a top 10 list. But Wilf is still one of my favorite companions.) 

ain’t no party like a wilfred mott christmas party

So my mom and I picked back up watching A Series of Unfortunate Events on Netflix the other day, and for the most part, I really do like it and I agree it’s a highly faithful adaptation of the books (though admittedly it’s been a while since I read them, but from what I recall, the series is doing quite well). 

But one thing did bother me: their Lemony Snicket is not at all like I pictured him. No hate to Kronk; Kronk is doing a great job being the Lemony Snicket that he is. But like I said, he’s just not at all how I saw the character as I was reading him. 

For one thing, given that his name is “Lemon-y”, I pictured him as blonde, perhaps strikingly so. For another thing, I just got the sense that book Lemony was a touch more shy and awkward, and I pictured him as a rather wiry kind of guy--not completely scrawny, thin but tough. That is to say, less strong-shouldered than Kronk. And recently, after a bit of thought, I realized that the Lemony I was picturing as I read looked more or less like a young Tom Petty.

I could just see Tom, fedora nestled on his soft blonde hair, hanging about libraries looking for clues regarding missing sugar bowls and odd, question-mark shaped creatures, penning lengthy coded love letters to a woman who regrettably cannot marry him, and watching grimly from the shadows as a number of dismaying tragedies befall that woman’s orphaned children. He has the perfect lemon-y hair, a suitably wiry frame, and just the right amount of quirky awkwardness in his smile, I believe. 

(To clarify, I don’t think Tom’s deep, Southern speaking voice would necessarily suit Lemony, just his physical appearance, so this is just for the sake of visualization.)

And so, I present to you, young Tom Petty as Lemony Snicket. Well, really just a series of photos where he looks how I would picture Lemony as looking; I haven’t edited them or anything, just arranged them. 

Anyways, young Tom Petty is just generally adorable and full of subtle swag. It’s always fun to look at pictures of him.

Even without the cathedral, this woman has a gorgeous voice, but the effect of the cathedral is really quite lovely. 

Kind of gives you chills .

I never realized that cat memes had a recorded point of origin in history! These pictures are not only fun but also historically significant :) I learned something today. Thank you, Mr. Pointer, for your wonderful contribution to our society.
