Like something youād find on one of those soft/nature blogs?
Well you are in for a surprise
The Bolton Strid in England is one of the most innocent looking streams.Ā
Though it looks like you could just hop across the rocks, but if you miss you will die for sure. It packs very rapid currents just a couple of feet below its surface. No one really knows how deep it really is. Nobody who has ever fallen into the Strid has survived. It has a 100% fatality rate.
Itās always the things I google expecting to be false that wind up being horribly true.
āItās relatively common for people to assume they can jump the creek, walk across its stones or even wade through it (again, just looking at it, the Strid really seems to be only knee-deep in places, and certainly not the instant, precipitous drop into a watery grave that it is). Most of the time, they never even find the body. Which means there are just dozens of corpses down there, pinned to the walls of the underground chasms, waiting for you to join themā¦ā
how dare you leave out the best quote
āItās exactly how water works in a video game: It looks all stupid and harmless, but the second your foot touches the surface, you get some bullshit drowning animation and die instantly.ā
I met a baby the other day who taught me that kids arenāt learning the thumb-and-pinky-out gesture for āphoneā anymore. She puts her flat, open palm up to her ear and babbles into it, simulating a flat and rectangular smartphone.
Itās begun. We are now officially the last surviving generation of this ancient civilization..
Oh my god
I was talking with my manager at work and she told me Monopoly doesnāt come with cash bills anymore, its a credit card. She said when her kids were little her youngest would tell her to use a credit card because then you never had to pay, everything was free! I just thought how wild that sounded and how that creates this debt-consumer culture that children donāt grasp until later in their lives
why would ya even let that sellout in here at all? because he remains the only one of our villainous brethren who I can converse with on an equal level. after all, with whom can I discuss the newest michelangelo exhibit at the gotham met? or the nuances of placidoās latest performance?

337.Ā Knowing what I know about Slytherin Houseās values, the main characters who were Slytherins & about myself as a Slytherin, I think a lot of Slytherins are (or at least start out as being) a little bit broken/incomplete inside. They have survived some bad things in their lives and/or simply have low self esteem/worth & are v self critical. Theyāre ambitious because they have a NEED to prove themselves and to know that all the shit they went through would lead to something better.Ā
