You find a lamp and a genie comes out. Immediately, you say “So… Standard genie rules? Can’t wish anyone dead or back to life, can’t make anyone fall in love?” The genie raises an eyebrow and says “You’ve watched way too much tv, kid. No. There are different kinds of genies with different rules. Most of us have a very specific set of wishes we can grant. The ones you’re thinking of are like gods to us. But enough about me. I’m sick of your face already. You have two options.

“You can either
A. Be average at everything you try. Keep in mind, this doesn’t preclude you from getting better at certain things. It just means you start off completely middle of the bar, nothing special but not terrible either. It also literally means everything you do. You can try to weave a basket and make one, you can sit down at your computer and try to hack into a system and do a decent job. You probably couldn’t break into the Pentagon, but you could break into your school’s system and change your grades if you wanted. Basically, if you decide to do something, whether you’ve done it before or not, you’re average at it. Or
B. Be supremely talented at three things of your choice. Now, this one is a little trickier. There’s a limit to how general you can be in the things you choose. You could say something like ‘martial arts’. However, you cannot say ‘sports’. Martial arts is considered a type of sports. You could say ‘languages’, but not ‘academics’. You see where I’m going with this? If you need clarification or you make a choice that’s too general, I won’t penalize you for it. You’re only human.
C. However, once you make your choices, I then get to choose three things that you’re terrible at. Lucky for you, much like Blackjack, the dealer’s options are much more limited. I have to be much more specific. I also cannot choose the same option you chose for one of your talents. However, say you chose… Languages as a supreme talent. I could choose Arabic languages. Thereafter, you would be extremely talented at all languages other than Arabic languages, which you would find almost impossible to learn. Or if I really wanted to be a dick, I could say ‘Living Languages’. Naturally, this would not preclude you from knowing languages you already know, so you could still communicate with people. Interesting right?
D. Thereafter, if you pick A, you can choose the name of another person to pass me on to. If you’ve picked B, that’s it. I go back into the Ether, or wherever the fuck it is I come from and wait for the next human to find me.

So what’ll it be? What’s your choice? What’ll you have?

I’d appreciate you saying what you would wish for in the comment section. Thank you.

What’s the deal with the Loud House fandom? I love the show. I love the characters. The plot is great and the fact that it’s so inclusive is amazing. But there’s so much toxicity amongst the fandom. People hating on Sam, people hating on Clyde, people hating on certain ships. I won’t detail which ships I like since it’s irrelevant. But people ship Luna with someone other than Sam and the Suna shippers jump all over them.

 

A Suna shipper talks about Suna and other shippers jump all over them. There’s bizarre and violent fanart of Sam being beaten up or shot. There’s fanart of Clyde being beaten up. And I just want to say… Really? Really? What’s the deal? The hatred that goes around this fandom is toxic and I’m just wondering what the deal is. If anyone can give me a good reason for it, I may change my opinion.

 

PS: Loudcest isn’t a good reason

PPS: Homosexuality supposedly being a sin isn’t a good reason either.

Gravity Falls doesn’t exist. It was all just a fantasy in Dipper’s head. He was actually reaching the age of thirteen and he realized that he wouldn’t be a child anymore. Gravity Falls was all just a dream. After all, doesn’t it all seem kind of unbelievable? That’s because he imagined it all and was acting out the fantasies all summer. The most believable part of it was his crush on Wendy, and even that seems a little odd.  

She’s fifteen and she’s hanging out with two 12 year olds despite not being their babysitter. Mabel’s boyfriends all raise an eyebrow as well, and strike me as the impression of a boy who doesn’t want to think that his sister is actually a woman. The gnomes, the creep who turned out to be evil, the merman, the guy who was borderline romantically obsessed with puppets, her crush on the boy band that turned out to actually be clones with no distinct personalities.

 

The boy that his crush went out with was also weird and had the feeling of how he would view a rival for his crush. Robbie was a total jerk, and Dipper probably fantasized that Robbie legitimately saw him as a rival, when in real life, a fifteen year old dating a girl probably wouldn’t see a 12 year old as a rival, no matter how intense their feelings for the girl were and no matter how immature the 15 year old was.

 

Wendy could also easily have been Dipper’s babysitter that he developed a crush on. She was his babysitter, but Grunkle Stan and Dipper’s parents didn’t call her that and Dipper never made the connection, so to him, they were just friends. But Grunkle Stan often tried to get her to work in his shop, which explains why it seemed like she was often skiving off work. He was well established as a cheapskate after all. In reality, it wasn’t her job to work for Stan.

 

She was hired by his parents to babysit and keep Dipper entertained. She was chosen because they knew how overactive Dipper’s imagination was and they wanted someone who could keep up with him. They knew her father and knew how physically active she was. So she was their first choice. So Dipper’s crazy adventures into the woods, looking for supernatural stuff was amusing to her, but she went along with them because she needed to keep him safe.

 

And of course the monster names all strike me as the mindset of a boy who’s only ever watched children’s Halloween movies and never even Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween or any real Werewolf or Vampire movie. He put together all those diaries himself. Although he had a very overactive imagination and Mabel encouraged his imagination, he was very intelligent and persistent.

 

He put together the three diaries when he was younger and made pretend that they were created by a six fingered man who was related to his extremely strange Grunkle Stan and lost them. For a time, he forgot about them, but then he found them again and fantasized that he discovered them and needed to learn about the supernatural secrets hidden in them.

 

Mabel and Wendy went along with his games, Wendy because she was paid to and because it beat having to get a normal job (she was legitimately a little bit lazy), and Mabel because she and her brother were legitimately very close and she loved his intense imagination and the adventures they got up to. Wendy knew that he was just trying to delay the time when he had to admit that he was growing up, but Mabel, being a 12 year old as well did not. She was just having fun with her Brobro.

 

The end of the world could easily have been his last ditch attempt to keep himself from growing up, to make sure that he could “live in Gravity Falls” forever and right before that, Ford had offered him an apprenticeship with him, another attempt that, while it hurt his sister, was there in order to keep him young forever

 The entirety of Gravity Falls could easily have been a fantasy that took place over the last summer of Dipper’s 12^th year, and the bittersweet bus ride where he opened the letter from his friends there was his realization that, as Dipper himself said “summer ends”. People grow up and it’s a fact that. He opens the letter and it says “See You Next Summer”. He has to grow up, but the memories of childhood are always there for him when he needs to escape. The end of summer doesn’t have to be the end.
