Random Tumblr posts

More crybabies whining about tumblr's dumb Halloween memes.

irl-punpun is entirely serious. Why can't these people chill and let these morons have their stupid memes. Nobody uses spook to refer to black people anymore. The word meaning has long since changed yet tumblrinas don't seem to understand that that's a thing.

And AAVE is just a subset of English. If we're going to fucking pedantic, if you're not from the country of England, stop fucking speaking English.
The word spooky just means something is creepy or scary. It has nothing to do with the old timey racial slur. The meme originated from a picture of some dollar store hallow decor that was spelled wrong.
And the Skeleton War meme has nothing to do with AAVE. It came from twitter:

Relax and take a joke guys. Life is a lot better when your not so anal over everything.
 

Tumblr is getting more tsun and less dere for 4chan senpai.

Next they'll be asking people to not use the words "shine" or "smoke" in their posts anymore...

Do they look up racial slurs to be offended by them?

This sort of thing has precedent. A post going around how Wreck-It Ralph was homophobic because Ralph insulted King Candy, a very Ed Wynn-inspired character, a "Nellie wafer." Apparently "nellie," which I'd only really heard used by grandmas after the word "nervous," is an old-timey slur against gay people, and OP's very for real gay friends were EMOTIONALLY DEVASTATED and TRIGGERED BEYOND MORTAL COMPREHENSION.

That post got thousands of fucking notes, and a lot of people bought it.

The skeleton war is one of those memes that draws from multiple sources. There's also this image:

And have you ever seen their attempts at humor?

No, no I haven't. And I'm probably not ready for the soul-sucking unfunniness of it.

It doesn't matter that nobody's used this slur in, say, 90 years and thus the makers of this film probably wouldn't have had it in mind...

This isn't all that uncommon to see on tumblr but hey

Got a kick out of that paragraph after the first line.

I really hope this guy never makes it. Imagine the kind of stuff he'd try to sell to the networks.
