fefri asked the horrorterrors to create the dream bubbles for them

We got that one already.

As punishment for sending this you must look at this gif.

*repeated head banging*

I put no gif there

I quit life

-Mod L

John has never used the ":B" emoticon.

Clearly you were not around for The Great :B War of 2012.

Let’s not reopen old wounds.

-Mod L

"TA: kiind of liike wiith regii2tered 2ex offender2 and 2chool2." Trolls have schools (PG 003615)

Eeeeeeeeeh I don’t know if this counts as a forgotten fact. I think it falls under as a fact nobody really noticed to begin with, but that’s pretty interesting so I’ll just leave it here.

-Mod L

I think we should look at the previous post regarding trolls and schools. Apparently they have sex offenders, as well. Which begs the question, if all adults are off planet, are their CHILD sex offenders?

-Mod L

what on earth was the :B war and where can i read it

The Great :B War of 2012 was a fuckton of questions regarding whether or not John used the :B emote.

It was really stupid.

-Mod L

By that logic, they also have presidents.

I fail to see your reasoning here, mind explaining?

-Mod L

TA: iif ii 2ee one more 2narl of wiire2. TA: kiind of juttiing out and beiing tangled or whatever. TA: ii am goiing two perform 2ome 2ort of athletiic fuckiing 2omer2ault off the deep end and get a call from the pre2iident or 2ome 2hiit. TA: 2o go away. (same page as sex offenders and schools, 3615)

Hm.

Either Hussie didn’t think this dialog through or he told us far more about troll society than we once thought.

-Mod L

Yo if you sent something but forgot to source it can you resend?

By all means do so, it’s a shame when we get really good ones that don’t have a source.

-Mod L

If we start taking everything from Homestuck literally (something I doubt Hussie intended us to do), we might as well assume that, based on the fact that Equius' trolltag is CentaursTesticle, hoofbeasts (and possibly other Trollian animals) reproduce the same way humans do, in which case it doesn't make sense for Trolls to be so confused by human biology and reproduction.

You just poked a giant hole in the fabric of Homestuck.

I hope you’re happy.

-Mod L

the dream is collapsing

Sorry, had to.

-Mod L

In response to all the Sollux/troll culture talk, I have a theory that doesn't have a whole lot of basis but might explain. Perhaps these things are part of troll sayings and we just see them translated into their english equivalents(since it's already being translated from Alternian to English, why not the sayings too?)

That sounds fairly possible.

-Mod L

Stop being so dramatic. My point is, Homestuck is very surreal, and sometimes it just doesn't make sense. You can't read too far into something that's meant to be silly and fun.

I was kidding, did I not make that apparent? If so I apologize.

-Mod L

Rebloggable version? Do it!!!!

Hey sepulchresilence, do you care if I do that?

-Mod L

I would be flattered! Go ahead.

Awesome.

-Mod L

*pokes a giant hole in a piece of fabric with the word homestuck written on it*

-Mod L

I really wanna follow this blog, but the mods are stupid bitches. :/

Well that’s a rude thing to say friend, you sort of hurt my feelings there.

-Mod L

Alot of people figure jake has a british accent because his last name is english. Actually, there are alot of subtle hints that grandma jade named him after Lord English to prove a point!

OH LORD NO

No offense or anything but if we put that up our askbox will be a shitstorm of people correcting us or mocking us for putting that up. It’s 6AM and I don’t need that right now.

-Mod L

Don't listen to him. He's just jelly cuz you guys a bootyful yaois.

…how can there be yaois if there is only one guy.

-Mod L

Temporal shenanigans.

It’s times like these that I wish I had a gif of M Bison saying “OF COURSE”

-Mod L

Don't you mean 'Lord... ENGLISH!?' BA DUM TSS

-Mod L

I have a submission, but I can't use the submit box on an iPad for some reason. Is it okay if I submit it here but with just the end part of the URL for the source?

Go for it.

-Mod L

I thought Mod L and Mod A were both guys...?

Well I was pretty sure that I was the only male mod but now I’m starting to second guess myself.

Thanks.

-Mod L

I put two really good facts about Jack in here several days ago with the sources, but they were never put up :(

Oh I’m pretty sure we still have one of those.

I deleted one because I’m not so sure that Jacks entire reason to go on a rampage was because of the silly dress but we still have the other one.

Mod A is usually the one to make text submissions into posts and they’re around the least. I can put up the one we still have now though.

-Mod L

I submitted the one with the terezi beating up karkat and arthour.

hmmmmmm

Nope, we don’t seem to have that one anymore, re submit it and I’ll see if it all checks out.

-Mod L

haha i didn't mean that terezi beat up arthour in case i worded that weirdly. But terezi used to beat up karkat, which i think is in 004475. the arthour being one of the strongest lusii is right after equius's introduction.

Someone needs to make art of Terezi beating up Arthour and Karkat at the same time.

I’m a little iffy on making that Terezi one, I feel like that one will cause a lot of follower back sass, but I can do that Aurthour one right now if you like.

-Mod L

did you get the one about the blonde troll actress?

We got that one but, unless I made some sort of really stupid mistake, I don’t think there was really any proof on that one, I don’t recall the source stating that she was blonde, feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

-Mod L

well it looked blonde to me.

It sort of did to me too but I’m fairly certain it was gray.

-Mod L

daves quirk??

Doesn’t look like we have it.

What was it?

-Mod L

on his use of ??? over and over again

Oh yeah, I didn’t let that one though because it didn’t strike me quite like a forgotten fact. Sorry about that friend.

-Mod L

is there a source for doc scratch being 4 feet tall?

Heck if I know, that one was before we required sources.

-Mod L

He also said "kismet fish" at some point too. Dave's not very reliable for pronunciation.

He really isn’t.

-Mod L

On Dave's pronunciation of "moirail" as "mwah rail", I figure he's reading it like a French word (think "trois"), and not from the Greek "moira" which it originates from (though, I'll admit, I do not know how "moira" is meant to be pronounced).

I’m still pretty sure he has absolutly no idea on how you’re actually supposed to pronounce it, though I understand that reasoning.

-Mod L

moira is pronounced MAW-EE-RAH. syllabes go this way: mo-ira.

Why are well still talking about this?

-Mod L

That's a great argument for the moirail pronunciation, but of all things i don't think dave would go out of his way to correct the pronunciation of a foreign word and be completely serious about it, it may be ironic. Everyone i talk to pronounces it moyrail.

Here are my thoughts, why would Dave know the proper way to pronounce an alien word? Why would said alien word’s pronunciation be based on a human language? WHY WOULD DAVE EVEN KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT FRENCH?

-Mod L

don't know about you but I took the "mwah rail" thing from Dave to be more a joke on like moirail kisses n shit.

That would also make sense.

-Mod L

Thank you, i knew you'd agree with me.

Yeah, I’m not making my thoughts on this any sort of secret.

-Mod L
