Yes I’m Thinking About Sam And Max - Blog Posts

Ridiculous trivial Sam and Max detail that I shouldn’t be taking as seriously as I do:

I’ve always felt uncomfortable over Max supposedly having bones in his ears, which is shown off in many different instances. (I assume it’s so his head shape could still be recognized even in skeleton form for comedic effect.) I don’t feel this way because it’s weird, I love Max and his weird self! I mostly just feel bad knowing how uncomfortable that must be for him. Now I came up with this theory that those “ear bones” are just an exotic form of thick dense cartilage that resembles bone and hardens into calcium after death, mostly because I see Max’s ears flop around anyway despite the implied ear bones. Then it turned into a theory about his ENTIRE skeletal system minus his teeth being made of this exotic form of cartilage.

I think way too much about the anatomy of a cartoon rabbity thing than I should. But I do it anyway, because it’s my existential crisis, and I get to choose what to do with it!

This could apply to SO many different other examples it’s insane.

not people calling deadpool and wolverine queerbait im begging yall to learn what queerbaiting is. like why is it that straight characters can have romantic subtext and thats all well and good but the minute gay characters have romantic subtext everyone gets out their pitchforks and starts screaming about queerbait. queercoding and queerbaiting are not the same people! i feel the fact that a song about going down on someone plays while the two protagonists hold hands to save the world should be evidence enough that the gayness was at least a little bit intentional. if you want to be mad about the movie not being gay enough thats fine but i keep seeing people praise venom as gay rep when it also doesn't explicitly state the two characters gayness or romantic interest (i love venom btw don't come for me). just can we stop the arguing and enjoy a fun movie please
