TIL Yankee Doodle Was Written By The British To Mock Americans. Doodle Is Thought To Come From The German

TIL “Yankee Doodle” was written by the British to mock americans. “Doodle” is thought to come from the German “dödel”, meaning “fool” or “simpleton” and “macaroni,” a flamboyantly stylish type of dress, painting the Yankees as morons who thought placing a feather in one’s cap made them a “dandy.”

Poor Wymbly he doesn't deserve it

Shoutout to my boy wembley who also has self esteem issues and gets infantilized by his friends for it for getting put onto the wise council in the reboot series, I love that for him.

Funny thing iv started doing anytime Im in a terrible mental state I just play don't starve. I haven't gotten to making it to 20 and iv had the game for like 3 years.

I don't know why I do this tho

Imagine you make a horror game off of a absolutely horrible experience a human could have, Then it actually happens.

Poor boy has insomnia (projection) and his family is an entire mystery

I definitely think gobo had a mom but just isn't there anymore

Uncle Matt knows but either forgot and just couldn't tell him

Kinda sounds like Sophie walten lol

fraggle rock au where the plot of “the riddle of rhyming rock” is what i thought it was gonna be when i first watched it, where solving the riddle would send a fraggle back in time

this assumption was based on three things.

1) the story about rhyming rock: “weary traveler, heed this rhyme, and you will dance in time”. dance in time? like dancing through time? it very well could be!

2) the fact that on apple tv the preview picture for the episode is of great uncle gobo. how could there be an episode with him? a flash back?? surely not!

3) i really like time travel

those things combined made me come to the conclusion that gobo would solve the riddle and get sent back in time

and to add in the details in the summary (as shown on the above picture) it could be something where solving it sends everyone in the room back in time, and the punishment for using the spell wrong happens only after everyone goes back, so that thing where wembley gets trapped under the rock could still happen

and then, idk, gobo goes to get help but the only person he can find is his great uncle? time travel shananigans you know

that’s pretty much all the ideas i had on this. though if this happened that would mean that wembley had gone back it time twice, and red would be the only of their group who hasn’t (thank you “mokey, then and now”)

i think about this one so fucking often i had to clip it
