“Shaggy doesn’t do drugs, he’s just Like That.” is great characterization. “Shaggy is against doing drugs and will say so to the camera.” is terrible characterization. “Shaggy is a pothead.” is generic but acceptable characterization. But may I present a new angle for consideration: Shaggy has no clue about drug culture. None. We give Fred all of the clueless traits because of the himbo energy but give some of those to Norville Rogers who grew up in a sheltered house with no social life (but a loyal dog!). A Shaggy who loves of all of his friends but has no idea what they’re talking about. “Hey, Shag, do you smoke weed?” “You mean, like, do I burn the weeds growing in my garden? Zoinks, that could cause a wildfire, that’s bad for the earth, man.”
I love it when there’s Benrey art where there’s a sea of similar looking security guards and he’s standing there being his Benrey self it makes me think of this one image
What we need to do is convince all the disney adults in america that high speed rail would be a preferable way of getting to disneyworld compared to driving or flying. We could maybe harness their fondness for the monorail or something, but this is a group of people that has time, income, and passion that we could leverage. If we could direct 5% of the enthusiasm they have for limited edition popcorn buckets into calling their representatives and demanding high-speed interstate rail, we could get it by 2030
Ifs been said before but it’s so funny when jerma first made it clear he was ok w gay people and 4chan had a melt down like. It’s jerma he’s so nice and polite he wasn’t gonna be some secret 4chan poisoned homophobic racist did anyone really think that 😭
I haven’t seen anyone else talk about this yet so I’m going to assume no one has (and if this is the millionth post about this I am so sorry), but apparently there was a leak at Viacom last month, and one of the things that got leaked was the original Danny Phantom pitch bible, and let me tell y'all, there is some interesting lore to be had. I’ve taken the liberty of summing up a few notable points, but feel free to read for yourself - it’s pretty short.
Jack was originally written as an ex-spy, test pilot… basically if it was a daring job, he probably had it. His IQ was supposedly only one point off from Maddie’s, and his bumbling was more of a result of him being more “brave than smart.”
Maddie was originally written as “one of the world’s most respected theoretical physicists” and the brains between her and Jack. Get this: her full name was supposed to be Madison!
Sam and Danny’s psychic connection was actually a result of the accident. When he was in the hospital and still very much saturated with ectoplasm, she gave him a “get better” kiss on the forehead, which sparked the connection. The connection would’ve manifested in a number of ways, including a perpetual ability to “sense” the other, see visions, and hear each other’s thoughts, though it was supposed to be somewhat unpredictable.
Jazz hid her brains from her cheerleader friends because she wanted to fit in with them.
Danny was supposed to be the only person able to see, hear, and interact with ghosts.
On the subject of Danny, his reputation for being a scaredy-cat was much more well-known, even to the point where Sam and Tucker gave him the nickname Danny Phantom before he even had his accident. This kid was scared of his own shadow, frogs, you name it.
Overshadowing was originally called “ghosting,” and the more intelligent a person, the more difficult it would be to control them.
Jack and Maddie were hoping to break the barrier between the “Real World” (our world) and the “Unreal World” (the ghost world). They wanted to get through to the spirit realm to be able to communicate with the dead in order to help make the world a better place (think picking Einstein’s brain a little more, seeing what other music Mozart has cooking, etc.). That dimensional barrier was damaged when they first tried out their experiment, and Danny - who was hiding out from Dash in the lab - would be caught in the middle.
Much like how fans have interpreted things and how the show tried to imply, Danny felt responsible for unleashing the ghosts into our world and decided to adopt the name Sam and Tucker had teased him with to help put a stop to their reign of terror.
Seriously, y'all should read this. There’s a lot of interesting info in here, and really it sounds like such a cool concept?? Like I’ll probably add my personal thoughts in a reblog, but there’s a lot of potential for untapped creativity from the phandom here. Plus it’s always nice to see what’s technically official content almost 20 years after the show’s premiere.
honestly really sexy of tumblr to keep follower numbers private. how many people are following me? you’ll never know unless I tell you. maybe it’s a million, or a thousand, or five, or maybe it’s just you. maybe you’re the only onehere, all by yourself, unable to see if there’s anyone standing next to you.
and you’d never know, because status here is based on opinion and not numbers; how popular you think someone is is a vibes-only calculation, and besides the chronological algorithms-optional feed, it’s genuinely the best thing tumblr’s ever done.
every other social media site: here’s how many followers this person has
