Learning French vs Learning German

languagetrash:

Reading French: a lot of words look like English, fairly straightforward, no casualties yet

Reading German: …where’s the verb gone? because i on sunday with my friend shopping went…

German tenses: wow look at these tenses that are easy to distinguish between

French tenses: is that the future, conditional, or imperfect???

German spelling: not massively difficult

French spelling: HAHAHAHA

German pronunication: things are said how they’re spelt, better master CH and R though

French pronunication: HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Listening to German: as long as Hochdeutsch is spoken, all is good

Listening to French: what did i do to deserve this

Speaking German: did i send my verb to the end??? did i even say the verb??? oops i said k instead of ch

Speaking French: honestly why did i learn ALL these endings

French prepositions: not brilliant, not the end of the world

German prepositions: oh just kill me now

Telling people you’re learning French: “But it’s so easy and boring!”

Telling people you’re learning German: “But it sounds so violent!”

French grammar: WHY

German grammar: WHY (x6)

45 pls!

“How much of that did you hear?”

There was a slight movement by his foot, but no other acknowledgement. Clint slid down the wall to sit, reaching over with one hand to pet gently, like that was gonna make this any better. 

“Look, you gotta know, me and your dad – we love each other, okay? No matter how much we shout, that’s always gonna be…” He sighed, and his hand fell still. “No matter how much I screw up.”

Clint let out a long breath and leaned his head back against the wall. 

“‘cos I screwed up, and I can acknowledge that. I do get that. I’m just not -” his chin was rough when he scratched at it: a night on the couch, cleaning up in the guest bathroom. “I’m not so good when people are yelling. Brings out the stubborn, and once that happens I can’t pull it back until we’re done. And I can’t -” 

He let the silence tick by for a time. 

“Done’s never gonna come from me. Not with your dad. I’ll die before I’m done with him.” 

There was a mutter of low swearing from the kitchen, and Clint bit his lip. 

“How much of that did you hear?” he said. 

“Quit talking to the Roomba, you asshole,” Bucky said, “and come here and kiss me.”

I feel like one of the biggest misconceptions out there is that all fanfic is written by 12 and 13 year olds

Like the other day I read a fanfic where Jason Todd is remodeling his kitchen and is concerned about wooden countertops because what if you get raw chicken on your wooden countertop?

You think a 13 year old thinks about countertops? Think again my friend that fic was written by an Adult

Literally me and @larkabout in ikea

Seriously tho. GLOSSY GRANITE FTW.

Just a segue – have you guys seen the decorative cat plates IKEA has at the moment!?

NO BUT I NEED TO.

@theproblemwithstardust has been building me a cat tree, though!!!

NICE! Cat plates:

@theproblemwithstardust WE NEED THEM

@larkabout those can be moo’s plates 😂😂😂
