Did Anyone Else Have An Odd Vendetta Against Gravity Falls (or Just Any Show Really) Before Watching

did anyone else have an odd vendetta against Gravity Falls (or just any show really) before watching it and then ending up absolutely loving it?

i remember when it was actively coming out on disney channel and i just don’t remember what it was about it that irked me SOO much… i feel like some of the rude people at my school may have watched it or something so i had a bad association? there was just something about it that made me SO MAD.

….and now i love the show after giving in and watching it over a decade later

ok so am i the only one who doesn’t really like animated characters appearing in live action? like nothing against the actors but to me their true “form” is as animated characters. like i just can’t 100% see them as the same person.

UMMM WHAT——

i decided to look up “Bill Cipher” in newspapers out of boredom and this article is from 1912 in KANSAS——

…i found a VERY MINUIT plot hole….

also very very minor spoiler for the book of bill

ok so Ford gets sucked into the portal in 1982 (as seen on the calendar in one of the episodes)

in The Book of Bill he talks about the song “Sweet Dreams” by Eurythmics playing…..

that song didn’t come out till January of 1983

i’m surprised i don’t see more in fics and such (as if i’ve read fanfiction in a while ha) where the clones accelerated aging is just kinda written out….

it’s honestly one of my least favorite things abt the clones is the fact that they all probably would be dead within 30-45 years of being “born” just from old age (but most probably just got killed before then)

like it would be easy to write out… like they were given stuff each year like a shot to keep their advanced aging until they were in their 20s or so (biologically)

“young adult dystopian novels are so unrealistic lmao like they always have some random teenage girl rising up to inspire the world to make change.”
