Small town culture is knowing that there are Old Folks with strange nicknames but never knowing the stories behind them.

Of course, I made the mistake of asking why everyone calls this one guy Brickaday and it turns out that he worked at a brickyard for 40 years, stealing exactly one brick every day and making no particular efforts to conceal the theft. Nobody thought anything of it until years later he was discovered to have built three houses.

His boss is said to have shrugged and made some remarks about the importance of coming up with a plan and sticking to it.

I‘m trying to arrange my face into an appropriate approximation of silent bafflement and failing miserably.

i appreciate brickaday

My grandpa once told me he worked with a guy called Scrappy at General Motors back in the 50s. Every few days he would wheelbarrow out metal shavings and the foreman was convinced he was stealing things and hiding them in the scrap metal to get it out of the factory. But every time they’d go through the scrap they’d find nothing. He was stealing the wheelbarrows.

One of my late grandfather’s friends was called Salami because he used to steal salami and cured meats so I’m seeing a pattern here

Anyway the “men are inherently violent and predatory,” argument is gross and LITERALLY does nothing except:

1. Give men who are violent and predatory and excuse. “I’m a man, its just how I am,”

2. Give toxic women a pass to say “i can beat my husband/bf because hes a man and thats how they are,”

3. Ingraine into young boys that they can never be anything but a predator

4. Basically victim blame women by saying “if you dated a man and he beat you its your fault you should know all men are violent and predatory,”

I’ve had several people ask if they can make fanart/fic/media or other AUs of my AU. It’s very sweet of you to ask, but of course you can! (And please show them to me!)

I know, it’s tragic, but sadly I still don’t own exclusive rights to the Incredibles franchise.  😢
