thegirlwiththedigimontattoo: I know a lot of my followers are into Sherlock. And that’s cool, but I want you to take a good look at this picture and ask yourself what’s missing from your version that clearly makes this movie superior. I rest my case. I CAN’T WAIT TILL I GET HOME AND CAN WATCH THIS WORK OF ART.

Going through an intro to Latin book to get ideas of verbs for field methods class. The Romans must have been an absent-minded people. They have a lot of words for losing, looking for, and finding things.

OH HEY IF YOU HAVE NEW POSTS ON THE TRACK TAGS...
Aha! I might actually like this, cause it hides the ones that DON’T have new posts (unless it’s one of the top 5 in alphabetical order, I guess)

I'm in love with the soundtrack of the Ru!Holmes...
sinooperi: From time to time it’s weird and derpy (which I find adorable) but most of the time it’s so epic skdljfgsfdg. And the great thing is that you can listen to the songs on their site. It’s in Russian but i think everyone knows how to use a music player. I need to find the CD too, now ;__; But what made me go hysterical with laughter and joy was the remix of the Baskerville episodes...

Watched too many versions of the Hound of the Baskervilles. Finding it hard to concentrate on Jeremy Brett and Ed Hardwicke being adorable. Whoops.

Two days left to watch some Basil Rathbone Holmes...
BUT I DON’T WANT TO Am I a failure of a Sherlockian for hating his version? I mean, he didn’t even think of sacrificing himself to kill Moriarty. He basically shoved Moriarty off the roof while Watson stood next to him like “Why, Holmes, that was unexpected!” Which was basically the only valid thing Watson said in that version, cause that ain’t Holmes. BUT GAH I...

If US distribution of UK shows wasn’t weird enough, the Sherlock Series 2 soundtrack is coming out in the States BEFORE the Series 1 soundtrack, and two months before it even airs on American television. What the fuck.

Obnoxious dude in syntax class decided to initiate a class-wide email discussion. Now I’m getting constant emails of him being a pretentious prick to the other kids in the class and I DON’T WANT TO TALK ABOUT SYNTAX. I had to look him up on Facebook to figure out that he started it, cause I simply called him ‘fauxhawk’ and everyone knew exactly who I was talking about.

“The accent, though” is never an appropriate answer to any questions on a play review. I get too hung up on accents in film and theater, don’t I?

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy makes more and more sense every time I watch it. Everyone else was complaining on the way out that they were confused, but I was happy. Also, the average age of the audience was about 35 years younger than the last time I saw it and 90% female so I wasn’t the only one making inappropriate sounds every time Benedict Cumberbatch came on screen, which was nice. I do...
