chocolatepotI don't know if I can bring myself to fully describe this, but I realized recently that I've been ... shall we say, very confused about a certain aspect of 18th century dress construction. For some time. And I'm not entirely sure how I got the idea that it worked that way. It's a really idiotic, bizarre thing. I feel so stupid but at least I've realized it before I've published it or something.
(It's so stupid.)
I watched Rise of the Guardians because Tumblr/DeviantArt was all over it at one point, and IDGI. 1) It's just not very good, kind of dumb, even for a kid's movie. 2) Has anyone asked Terry Pratchett about it? Because it is so much like Hogfather that I have a hard time believing it's just a coincidence. Santa's more hardcore than you'd expect, the tooth fairy is important, children's teeth have a magical power, there's a bogeyman, said bogeyman used to be super-powerful in the past but was driven out by hope, faith, light, etc. Kind of ridiculous. Um, I guess at least nobody was riding around on wild pigs to make the sun come up.
