Ted Lasso Dialogue Dump

Ted Lasso Dialogue Dump

Okay so I thought it would be fun to try and write some Ted Lasso stuff cause the show is great and Ted talks in such a specific way, so here's what I think is the most in-character thing I've written for any character:

A while later, when a decent amount of people are walking about, enjoying life before work, I hear a “Howdy Sam, how are you doing?” from beside me. “I’m alright, Ted. You?” “Oh I’m doing fine. Hey, nice scarf by the way. Very stylish. Reminds me of my neighbor’s grandma’s cat that she used to doll up during parties and whatnot. Was very cute; kid’s loved it. Always suckers for animals in human clothes. Hey I wonder if they have stores just for animal clothes? Ya know, like a normal clothing store but instead of normal sized jackets and shirts and hats they’re all tiny so you can fit them on a dog or cat or—heck even a lizard! Hey, if you could have any pet, what would it be? C’mon, lets here it. Nothing too outlandish!” He pats my shoulder encouragingly.

I can’t help it when a smile forms on my face. Just who he is—it’s so infectious to me. I take a moment to ponder his question, then respond “I think I would like a horse. Not here, in the city, but if I lived out in the country I think It’d be nice. Be able to ride out into who-knows-where for half a day or something. Plus, you can give them a full-body hug instead of it just being a little thing you squeeze in your arms” I say, knowing he’d like that answer.

“Well, I’ll be darned, I was going to say a parrot cause they’re pretty cool and you could teach them tricks and whatnot, but you’re totally right about that huggin’ thing! Would be nice to be able to do that. Plus you can go places with a horse, whereas if ya let a parrot loose it would probably just get lost’r something.”

On Doing Ciphers in Public

Okay so I journal a lot, right? And in public places a lot too, specifically at church. Now because of where I sit in my high school group there are people behind and above me, so I become paranoid that they're going to read my journal. So to fix this I. I decided to just. Use Ford's substitution cipher whenever I wanted to vent or write private things. I memorized it a while ago and I can do it pretty fast.

Con: It takes me over twice as long to read entries in cipher.

Pro: They can't read what I'm writing, because even if they watch the show I doubt they have it memorized. Mission accomplished!

Con: It probably looks like I'm writing in some sort of witchcraft language, which isn't great in a church.

Pro: I get to see some baffled looks sometimes whenever I look behind me or write on a whiteboard.

Pro: Some people ask about it which means I get to infodump as much as I think I can about ciphers and codes before they realize their mistake. This is great, especially since my church has whiteboards scattered around sometimes.

In conclusion, there are more pros than cons, and I see no problems with this. Be weird, everyone!

Warm regards,

Hello! I did this drawing for a DM/friend a while ago, and thought I'd post it here cause I think it turned out nice :)

My friend created the creatures and I took his descriptions and facts and came up with this design; he was very happy with it. Unfortunately the campaign they were used in was cut off cause no one could find the damn time to do sessions (freaking choir people, they have no time for life I swear). Anyways, I really like drawing in this style even if it took a while.

I feel like so many people on this website do digital art but I don't have any of the stuff for that so I will only be posting physical art I've done; apologies that I'm not great at taking pictures of them (as you can tell from my previous posts).

Warm Regards,

I don't consider myself a writer but...

Me today: hmm, I wonder how many words I've written. I mean, I don't write much but I have a decent little collection of this one storyline.

Me, copy-pasting all the random chapters and stories into one doc, watching the word count go higher and higher: hmm...

Me, seeing that I have over 52 thousand goddamn words for a fanfic with a damn OC/self-insert: what the H-E-Double Fork.

Me: huh, wonder what that means for my little side project then, cause that one's barely anything, right? Just one I dabble with every now and then, nothing more.

The "little" project in question: 22.5 thousand words.

Finished the outline for this page today; still not sure how I want to go about shading larger areas so leaving it like this for now. Looks basic but whatever. Still hate cursive. Also imagine having such a massive hubris that you fall for Bill's flattery--it would take a lot more to inflate my pathetic little ego. My ego is currently a bookend in my brain. My ego is a coaster getting soggier by the minute from a Sprite can. It is Shrodinger's cat. It's the pen that ran out of ink forever ago but I keep forgetting and try to use it every couple of days and still forget to throw away. It's the bag of DnD dice I haven't properly used in like a year but only bring out to shake it violently so I get dopamine from the clicky clacky sounds.

Anyways Warm Regards,

Sam

Eh, mostly done anyways. Thought I might as well throw it up here since I don't have much else done. Have no idea how I'm going to go about all the photographs in this darn book; might paint/draw them, might print them all out at once. Or I could just look up what other people did, but then I would just be seeing people who are much better than me doing the same thing and I would like to not crush what little ego I have thank you very much.

Anyways If you look at the 'E' in Eyeballs you can see my failed attempt at using glow-in-the-dark paint for the blacklight entry. Didn't think to test it out first and it immediately bled... lesson learned. Anyways I'm getting better at the writing part of these entries so future posts will include better laid-out cursive (still hate it though).

Warm Regards,

Sam
