I feel like you should point out that stuff happened in the banner at the Scratch part, since I know a few people who didn't notice until I told them about it.
Trust me, we noticed, I think we have two or three already on this blog.
-Mod F
What about dad was banned from Cirque du Soleil? Sorry i cant find the page
We got that one already friend.
-Mod L
on the alternia album, there's a song that calls them "lusii" (death of the lusii)
Ok, so that settles that then.

i dont have the source here because hussie deleted his formspring or an image to go with it but a commonly forgotten homestuck fact is that the nature of troll sexuality means that kanaya isn't a lesbian as we think of it??????????? she prefers girls, but she could look at a guy and think "wow thats hot" and be attracted because it's more in the nature of a fetish than of a sexuality. i feel like ive done a bad job explaining this but yeah
Yeah this sounds familiar to me.
I’ll just put this here.
-Mod L
Okay stop. You guys just have the best reaction pictures i have ever seen werjghsiedo
Thanks I guess
I get most of them from the combination of homestuckreactiongifs and The Batman from homestuckpetpeeves.
Some I just stumble upon on my own though.
-Mod L
I have quotes from the formspring archive. Relevant bits on Kanaya: "But then, homosexuality in a society where bisexuality is the norm is kind of a different thing. Rather than being a swapped preference, it is a more exacting preference. Somewhat like a fetish for a particular gender." and "Not that any of this changes how we view Kanaya. From a human perspective, she's an unmistakably gay character."
Well there you go then.
-Mod L
I read somewhere from one of Hussie's many accounts on various websites that trolls have two dicks- one hate dick and one love dick. Unfortunately, I can't remember where it was (I think it might have been formspring) or whether or not he was being serious. U_U;
A few things to keep in mind on that.
1) I believe Hussie once said something along the lines of “people ask troll sex questions all the time and I never once gave a serious answer”
2) Formspring is where fat Vriska came from.
Can we get the sexuality thing rebloggable please.
Sure thing.
-Mod L
Most people forget John is left-handed!
-cough cough- SOURCE -cough cough-
-Mod L
Actually everyone, from what I've gathered, is left handed in homestuck. Or atleast all the boys are.
With all the sprite flipping nonsense it’s really hard to tell.
-Mod L
how about everyone is ambidextrous
Sure, let’s go with that.
-Mod L
I'm really bad at submitting stuff, but I just wanna add that all the kid's internet browser names match the names of their denizens, which I thought was pretty cool.
Woah.
I did not know that.
-Mod L
did you really not know that or was that sarcasm
I genuinely did not know that.
-Mod L
On 006867 you see Dirk drawing with his left hand and on 002366 Dave is typing on his phone with his left hand. John is right handed shown on page 002373 when he types on his PDA.
Typing really doesn’t prove that though, I’m left handed and I type with my right.
Then again I may be the exception and not the rule. Who knows.
-Mod L
I'm left handed and type with my right, too! Are you me...? I'd also like to add that in most instances, characters that have their sprites flipped correctly and are doing stuff are using their left hands. It's probably just because the Huss is a leftie.
That or he just doesn’t care enough.
Also I’m fairly certain you’re not me…possibly
-Mod L
John is ambidextrous because he can wield a hammer in both hands
He was also waving them around like a manic and not doing anything really dexterity intensive.
-Mod L
Hi, Mod L and Mod F. So I made a side tumblr on this for us to post notes to eachother without having to post it on the main blog or send duplicated asks or whatever. Mainly as a means of organization and timesaving. Just follow that blog on your personals and we won't have to clog up forgottenhsfacts with metablogging and stuff that doesn't pertain to the followers. If this is a stupid idea ignore it. -Mod A
Nonono, it’s a great idea. Thank you. :) It would be helpful instead of having to tell each other things through asks, or this blog or whatever. I am answering this publicly so that Mod L can see it too.
-Mod F
You guys are great.
You think so? Thanks, that actually means a lot to me, I’m sure it means a lot to the others as well.
-Mod L
I think with all the sprite flipping nonsense and such, the dominant hands of the characters don't really matter
Pretty much.
-Mod L
eridan is the only male troll with black lips.
Nope. Sorry friend but I’m pretty dang sure you’re wrong on this one.
-Mod L
A few pages after Kanaya's intro, she states that a troll's lips are naturally black
Yeah see.
-Mod L
"eridan is the only male troll with black lips." I know they already said you are wrong, but let me remind you that he is also the only one that is a "fish" that is a male, therefor without Feferi being a male, (since she wears makeup) your argument is invalid either way. Sorry :3
I have absolutely no idea what you’re trying to say.
-Mod L
I think that second anon is trying to say that Seadwellers aren't trolls? I'm not sure, but that's what I'm getting.
-Mod L
Maybe it's that he's got big lips because he's a fish troll?/shot a million times
That is also a possibility.
-Mod L
What he's saying is that since Eridan's the only sea-dweller male, your argument is invalid. Not sure why it's invalid, though.
I’m not sure either.
-Mod L
just kinda wondering, is there any particular reason sollux is your icon?
I was wondering that myself, maybe Mod F will have a real answer for you.
-Mod L
Could someone cite the actual comic rather than the wiki for this jade blood fact?
Bro, there is a link to the page that it’s on right on the fact.
-Mod L
I'm just wondering, but since Jadebloods are so rare (and I think I recall seeing that Kanaya was the only living one at some point?), wouldn't you think that technically she'd be on the top of the hemospectrum, regardless of the actual blood color?
I’m fairly certain that their blood’s rank isn’t based off of rarity, if it was then Kanaya would be on the top.
-Mod L
I thought it was Feferi that was the last of her kind, not Kanaya? Jadebloods are rare, but I'm sure she's not the only one??
Heck if I know, despite the fact that I admin on the blog about remembering the little details I remember very few little details.
-Mod L
"You are one of the few of your kind with JADE GREEN BLOOD. As such you are one of the few who could be selected and raised by a VIRGIN MOTHER GRUB, an event so rare as to elude documented precedent." So Kanaya isn't the only jadeblood, just the only one to be raised by a mother grub.
Well there you go then.
-Mod L
but technically all of the canon trolls are the last of their kind now, aren't they? since everything on alternia was destroyed.
GOOD LORD YOU’RE RIGHT
-Mod L
Blood rank is based off of how fatal the vast glub is.
Ok then.
-Mod L
I was under the impression that the Hemospectrum is based on longevity. And maybe strength, too. I think I remember Feferi strong-jumping through her gates like Equius at some point, but I don't have a source for that.
I don’t recall such a thing.
I should really re-read Homestuck at some point.
-Mod L
It actually wasn't quite a strong-jump Feferi did, but more like a dolphin-jump out of her fishbowl planet. Still, it was definitely a feat.
I’ll take your word for it.
-Mod L
How come Vriska and Kanaya can punch people without a specibus?
Beats me with a stick.
-Mod L
If the Hemospectrum was based off of rarity, wouldn't it be Karkat at the top, followed by Kanaya and then Feferi? Because there was only one other troll to ever have Karkat's blood color, Kanaya's is naturally rare, and almost everyone of Feferi's ends up dying- there's usually only 2 at one time.
I never said it was based on rarity, I said it wasn’t.
Also why are we still talking about this?
-Mod L
I assume "fireextkind" means "fire extinguisher kind", not "fire exit kind" (or "fire escape" as your post called it).
You can’t prove that, for all we know there could be someone killing imps with fire exits.
-Mod L
It means Firefox Extension kind.
-nods- also very likely.
-Mod L
if it were fire extinguishers, it'd probably be fireextrkind since -kinds can be 12 characters long including the "kind" part
No stop using real logic, that’s not how this works.
-Mod L
Adhering to the 12 characters thing, if it were fire exit, it'd be "fireexitkind". Just saying.
You’re doing that logic thing too, stop that.
-Mod L
is your strife specibus fuqlogickind? /shotforbadjokes/
I would use lamp kind. You just can’t beat cracking someone over the head with a lamp.
-Mod L
"No stop using real logic, that’s not how this works." Mod L I think you just explained Homestuck in a sentence. *applauds slowly in utter awe*
-Mod L
craking?? is that a word?
Ok smart guy, I’m not good at spelling.
-Mod L
I saw ladle- and trophy- kind on that list. Very creative.
Also very ineffective.
-Mod L
And yet Fancy Santa Kind is the deadliest. lmoa
-Mod L
that depends on the size of your trophy.
-Mod L
I see a lot of places that say there are no black blooded Trolls. But doesn't His Honorable Tyranny count as one? He has black blood. (005653) HHT and Mindfang after the hanging of Redglare. (005654) And the black blood of HHT on the cane sword. Tumblr apparently doesn't like links in ask boxes, so I just put the page numbers.
This one has, and will always be, a little to iffy for me to make into a fact. It just screams askbox shitstorm to me.
-Mod L
What if it was a sword-trophy. Or a really big ladle.
