my brother is getting married and i’m so excited to fulfill my destiny as the embarrassing drunk gay sister who flirts with the bride for the entire ceremony
i’m gonna yell “RUN AWAY WITH ME” to her during the vows
there are people out there genuinely worried that I’m gonna steal my brother’s bride away the day of their wedding… i’m laughing. I’ve known her since I was born, we just love annoying the shit out of my brother and this “you picked the wrong sibling” joke has been going on for as long as I can remember. The whole family is in on it. The three of us are super close, she’s always been family. Also we are really bad at romantic weddings (my Mom wore jeans at my Dad’s and hers, signed a bunch of papers and then got blackout drunk), and my brother and his girlfriend probably won’t even have a “real” ceremony, just a celebration between friends and family. I love my brother and he already knows I’m gonna pull some stupid stunt, it’s what we do. His girlfriend is usually the one to initiate these shitty jokes, I wouldn’t be surprised if she was the one to stop the “ceremony” to say some shit like “WAIT THIS IS THE WRONG SIBLING”. please don’t take any of this seriously lmao
that said, i’m definitely showing up half naked to her bachelorette party as the “surprise stripper” with a sash that says “the sibling your should be marrying” and a shitty plastic tiara
UPDATE:
1) for people confused about the “I’ve known her since I was born (…) she’s always been family”: She’s the granddaughter of our parents’ neighbors, we all grew up together and my brother and her have been in love since they were babies. He held her hand as she made her first steps, they even have a picture on their wall of the moment before she first tried to get up
2) IT’S OFFICIAL, I’M GONNA BE MY BROTHER’S BEST MAN. AND YOU KNOW WHAT THE BEST MAN DO? A SPEECH. Everything is going according to plan.

highways in Massachusetts do this really cool thing where a lane will just abruptly disappear at inopportune times (right after highway entry ramps, in roundabouts, etc). half the time the sign warning you of this is placed basically where the lane ends anyways and the other half there just isnt a sign at all. there’s a part of my commute where the road goes from three lanes to one in 500 feet with no signs
this is what happens when you let horses from the 1800s do all of your city planning
god, kelly square is a fucking nightmare i swear everytime i go through it everyone decides to purposely ram into your car
one time i was driving through kelley square and someone fucking reversed at me. it is truly a godless patch of asphalt
I love watching Americans get angry about roads with more than two options
I don’t think you understand the horror that is Kelly Square, but I’d love to see a worse intersection if you know one
I think the most solid advice I was given about Kelly Square is “you just go if you don’t go that’s when you die”.
Massachusetts doesn’t believe in visibility, adequate lane width, or any form of predictability in roads. Five way intersections with no lights or clear right of way with bonus one of the spokes is at some absurd angle and is hiding behind a hedge - yeah that’s pretty average and thanks I hate it. You just drive and hope it all works out for the best, teeth grit and eyes steely as they gaze into traffic hell. Also they have a problem and that problem is their love of circles one after the other with traffic lights in the middle. What the fuck my dudes.
listen once you’ve been through it several dozen times you just gotta trust your gut instincts and take no shit from anyone else trying to muscle their way in
when i was checking out colleges in boston another girl on the tour, a native bostonian, said “you dont use turn signals. thats like showing your enemy your next move” and to this DAY it haunts me
George Takei was so excited to do this shirtless episode. He spent all his free time doing push-ups for a week before they shot this.
they were going to give him a katana and have him be a samurai, but he didn’t want to be stereotypical, so he told the execs that he could fence and they wrote in references to the three musketeers instead
he could not, in fact, fence
he spent the weekend before shooting learning how
Not only that, but he found he liked fencing, kept it up, and became a master fencer.
When I had the privilege to hear him talk at AwesomeCon 2015, he informed us he is a master fencer. It was a very clear implication that he is still fencing at his advanced age. No wonder he’s so healthy.
He had far too much fun with this episode and it shows.
