#14 - this is literally how the Deaf Community here names people. Buck-tooth, big-nose, squinty, wobbly-jowls, etc.

So Hemingway missed "gorilla warfare"? Fuck off and learn to write, people- there's no easy way. Just write, write, and write.
LinguisticLuniel
I feel like you should only use it after you have written it and checked it yourself, so it can pick some of the things you missed.

Take your upvote, I did a spit take on #25

#19 I'm Lithuanian. I'm the whitest person you will ever meet and I have to spell my name ALL THE TIME
CrushTheLeftoverDinosaurs
I'm from the US. My heritage is Lithuanian just a clarification.
shdwklown
Same, U.S., of polish descent. Had a boss who took to calling me "Cisco" because he couldn't handle my last name. Fun times...fun times.

@OP I've been playing/watching a lot of Fallout stuff and I'm doing #1 almost all the time.
DepressivesBrot
#1 happens a lot to me with games. I'll also usually just settle on the first/most memorable character I associate that voice with.

If it's not Nolan North, it's Steve Blum. Always.

Don't forgot Troy Baker!

Sure, but it's better advice, and "proverbs" are all made up anyway so it doesn't matter which one was "first."

#10 reminds me of Starfire from (the good) Teen Titans.
samsonguy920
TIL when you need the sleep, you turn into Starfire of the (good) Teen Titans.

I would also like to add, before I posted that comment, my phone auto corrected "Teen" into "Tennessee".
samsonguy920
Tennessee Titans? That doesn't seem like anything worth watching.

What kind of a shithead do you have to be to put someone down for trying to get your life straight just cause you can't?
llamamushroom
So much cringe...
TooDumbForRickandMorty
Anyone else bothered that the "gazebo" was a cabana
samsonguy920
That's how it got away. It shapeshifted.
LovecraftianHugz
The answer to #1 is usually Jim Cummings, Billy West, Phil Lamarr or Tom Kenny.
GucciBootlips
Love love love Phil Lamarr's voice acting
Supernerdtastic
Steven Blum you heathen.
samsonguy920
Nolan North, even. He did a few voices outside of video games.

#9 THESE ALTERNATES ARE ALL MADE UP BUT PEOPLE KEEP REPOSTING THIS!!!! :'(
TristanBomb
Okay, I think you're overreacting a little. Besides, the alternates are all better life messages than the real ones.
TristanBomb
Like, seriously. "You can only be good at one thing." "You must side with family, no matter how psychotic they are." "Don't be curious."
cheesecake7
If they had of said, "think about these modified versions of famous quotes" totally ok!
madjo
"of" is not a verb and "had have said" is not English (nor is "had of said"). I think you meant "would've said" or "would have said".
cheesecake7
Nope, I meant 'had'
cheesecake7
They are essentially lies however, which goes against my core principles
AgentOne
Shit, at least call it a Tumblr dump.
GucciBootlips
Could also be called a "Reinforced Punchline Dump". They go hand-in-hand

#19. I'm of Norwegian descent, so I'm white as white can be. My last name is having an identity crisis. It's never spelled correctly.

In what world is "blood of the covenant" not a religious reference?

IIRC it's 100% approved by Rothfuss, too. I think he even sells them from his website.

Hell of a dump!

#42 so they're a bit like Human Munchkins?
samsonguy920
Munchkins is speaking rather highly of them.

ladyiota
They like to go in water. Even tortoises. I usually out my girl in a good soak a couple times a week.
Mutt1117
Don't tell them it is turtle pee. Tell them you figured it was apple sauce.

I see what you did there...

Doesn't pretty much everything void Apple care

Works the same with constellations, too. It really is how you perceive it. You don't have to follow what someone else says.
GucciBootlips
@Codwah - is this what you saw (Alaska as the head?)
Codwah
Yep, pretty much spot on. Maybe whoever drew the other one was Canadian and that's why they saw the head as eastern Canada.

#19 I'm white, my surname's a common word, but it's spelt differently. My first name has about 10 different ways to spell it.
Sleevey27
People can't even pronounce my last name most of the time without me having to go through it slowly. And even then there's still trouble.
DemonicGothBinx
Nobody ever spells my last name correctly. I am white.
PinkyandtheBane
I'm a white person, and I had to deal with all my teachers, principals, and even the DMV, spell my name wrong. Its not even a hard name.
DeadpanTrike
My nametape is literally part of my uniform and I still have to spell for people standing in front of me.
potatotheloaf
#19 is my entire life. I have a polish maiden name. My married name is English but I swear they pronounce it weird/wrong so it's even WORSE
SexualConsent
Not just Polish, just Slavic names in general (Source: I'm Serbian) are hard to pronounce for people here in Canada
CairoLen
Heh, yeah. I have a friend named Sladja. Her daughter Dragana has a hell of a time. Dragon? What?
Rystefn
My surname is a common word, spelled perfectly normally. I have to spell it for people constantly. And they pronounce it wrong constantly.
SonderingStrike
My last name is Scottish, so everyone always has to ask "mAc or mcA" and, in all honesty, it makes me smile a little every time.
AllHailTheCritbow
People pronounce my surname like it's some fucking middle eastern word when it's not
DeathByTeacup
I'm white, with Welsh/Scottish names, I have to spell mine out constantly. People still get it wrong.
SociallyAwkwardCanadianMoose
' Close enough'
GoodnessGraciousGreatBallsOfFiree
My name is Bryon. Not Brian or Bryan, Bryon. I have been called "Byron" more times than there are dyslexic people in the world
HerrBisch
I can sympathise with that, at first glance "Bryon" looks like it should be "Byron". Must be frustrating. I'd blame your parents!
GoodnessGraciousGreatBallsOfFiree
My dad is also Bryon
HerrBisch
Then he is doubly to blame, as he must know exactly how frustrating it is! Perhaps he did it deliberately, to pass on the suffering.
GoodnessGraciousGreatBallsOfFiree
Haha probably. My grandma spelled it wrong because of her extreme amount of pain killers to handle birth pains
RedDwarfIV
"That's Stevens with a VEE"
CapnJackHarkness
I am Polish. There are 4 ways that I know of to pronounce my last name.
HandsomeJackBlack
My SO has a French last name and no one can spell it and everyone he does business with has to ask how to pronounce it. He's maximum white
DarkMaster98
Thanks to having 2 capital and 2 silent letters in my last name, it has 2 alternate pronunciations, and most first attempts end up butchered
StorellaDeville
"Ninety-Eight?"
OSCgal
Also white, with a Germanic surname: When people ask for my name, I just start spelling it. Saying it first just confuses them.
AlchemicKeyblader
White, German last name. Had it butchered in many creative ways all through elementary and high school. Also ended up just spelling it.
onlyhalfghost
Dutch name, live in Canada. Can confirm, descendants of Britons can't spell Germanic names for shit.
KingArthritis
White German also. In school I used to spell my name how it sounded just so they'd get the pronunciation correct.
professionalwindowlicker
My grandparents just shortened their last name to the first three letters instead of the whole twelve
KaitlynTheSeaDragon
Same, white with German/Jewish last name. Nobody can spell or say it.......its only 5 letters
amoeba15
I have a German last name that's simple as fuck but people still can't pronounce it even though it's pronounced how it's spelled.
personalpackagehandling
my german last name is a WORD IN ENGLISH, and it's constantly misspelled. no one ever believes it's as simple as it is!
amoeba15
Yeah, people are idiots.
personalpackagehandling
amen
Katemonster22
I acquired one of those kind of last names when I got married 2 years ago. I still get a kick out of watching people try to say it.
quietlysinister
#19 is one of the stupidest things I've ever read. Do you KNOW how many white people had their name streamlined coming to America?
yourCleverUsername10
Polish last name: Czarniecki. Polish pronunciation: z-uh-nin-skee. American pronunciation: z-ah-r-nik-ee (or z-ah-r-nek-ee)
CairoLen
Goecke here. Polish approximation: gookeh (the oo as in book, not goon). American? Go-eck-ee. And her Mom? Czapiecki
FaultyStarsNoConstellations
I have a combination of 3 unusual names. Spelling them is my only option, ever.
rshini
There's a story of six brothers with the surname of Waterhouse going through immigration and not one ended up with the same last name
CthulhusGreasyBallsack
My name can only be traced back to my ancestors through the Non-Americanized spelling, pretty frustrating when it's a normal name...
quietlysinister
I mean, my maiden name had like 4 different spellings, and my married last name has like 10 as well. Ghhh!
ILiveUnderARock
Is that just a hhh sound because gh makes a hhh sound?
quietlysinister
It's actually a series of rolled 'R' sounds.
Stuntminer202
Plus, people like Arabs can be white. And as an example of one, most people just write initials as my surname
UpvoteFairy3001
I know white people with names like Schoenberger, Wawrzewski, Meinershagen. People ask me so spell mine and it's fuckin Moran.
eagleandy93
I have to tell people 'with a ph' otherwise they put a v and I never find my name again
CthulhusGreasyBallsack
Phteven?
eagleandy93
*Phtevens for a last name kind of sucks
SuperiorPosterior
MacIver, Mcgiver, MacGiver, Mcgayver, Macgregor, Mack, and Matt are all ways people have butchered my name at coffee shops.
PapiBlanco
So could you create an explosive out of common household items
SuperiorPosterior
I created a firecracker using a tin can, a spark plug, some condensed hairspray, and a D battery, so... probably.
MenloPart
Can you create an explosive out of common coffee? :)
LizardsInTheSky
I've never seen a single person with my last name that wasn't immediately blood related. This includes an internet search. No one.
CairoLen
Anzew?
EroticZombiePants
Ditto. My last name is Americanized. Everyone in America with it can be traced back to my grandfather. It's been genealogy proven.
LizardsInTheSky
Glad to meet you, Mr./Ms. Americanized. What a lovely name
WheelieMachine
Well 3/4 of my friends have the exact same surname. And were like a fucking group so im like the outsider like, hey my surname is 1/2
