I would do anything and everything for you. And not solely because I want you to have it all but because I’m scared if I don’t give you everything than you will take away the little you give me. My inability to refuse you is not because my love is unconditional, it’s because yours isn’t.

turning off your computer by clicking the digital shut down button = softly kissing it goodnight
turning off your computer by holding down the physical power button = strangling her to death

noticed my coworker was on tumblr so i told them “i like your shoelaces” and they said “never say that out loud to me”
this is the correct response btw

now that everyone from twitter has joined tumblr overnight, it’s time to lay a couple ground rules:
1. it’s not called a “retweet”, it’s called a “reblog”, but if you’re REALLY cool, you refer to it as a “rebagel”
2. if someone has fewer followers than you, it is totally fair to call them “irrelevant”, but it is actually more stinging to call them “irrelephant”
3. if you see someone irl that you think might have a tumblr, you’re supposed to say “i like your shoe laces”. the correct response, which any true tumblrite would know by heart, is “thanks, i stole them from the president”
4. there is a particular phenomenon that happens after 12am EST called “nightblogging”, and everything after this point is the fault of the australians
