blorbo went from an overplayed and annoying joke on tumblr... to actual incorporation in my (specifically online, specifically with certain pals) vocabulary because it's just... it's such a stupid-useful and efficient way to describe the exact intersection of fondness and absurdity that is, "i am thinking about this character constantly because i love them, but also that involves putting them in the pear wiggler/shoving them in a locker/rotating them in my mind like a rotisserie chicken."

"Favorite character/fave" just doesn't capture all of it.

I hate smol though.

that exact attitude is one of the things that makes the word annoying

so you're mad at the word because the people using it don't take their character seriously enough?

I swear y'all sound like the type of people who think pets should only ever be named shit like "kristina" and "william" because calling your cat "miss fluffbottom" is tantamount to animal abuse

nayrt but i think they're more talking about the way people get "uwu my widdle fwuffykins trashboy blorbo ehehe i want to rip out his guts u_u i was sniffing pictures of him at work today"

if you don't know the type, you're doing something right

feels like 99% of this issue could be solved by not going on tumblr and unfollowing certain people on plurk, aka taking responsibility for curating your own space

what makes you think people don't

they didn't say they see it every day because they don't unfollow, they said it's annoying

those are two different things

this person doesn't exist on dreamwidth, you made them up in your head

someone just like this plays that idiot from magicians in the game i'm in. i unfollowed over this.

is it quintin? i swear quintin players get so unhinged about their precious blorbo who has never done a thing wrong in his life

anyone who plays quentin coldwater goes on my red flag list immediately these days for this exact reason, idk why this character attracts so many soulbonders.

well i was pretty confident in what i said but boy your unhinged defensive hyperbole sure made me reconsider.

Giving pets normal human names is funnier to me than giving them goofy pet names

you know what, youre right. im imagining having two of god's stupidest dogs and theyre named Mike and Andy, and it is an incredibly good bit.

My brother has a dog named Johnny, who one of his daughters then named one of her d&d characters after. His full name was Johnny Dogg, the human fighter.

There is a horse where I ride named Edgar lmfao

the most comedic possibility is combining both in a skewed ratio, e.g

Mark, Andy, Marge and Scrungus the Decimator

or

Beans-On-Toast, The Duke of Zill, Banana Slammah and John.

ayrt it was definitely not the point of the comment but you and the anon above you made me laugh out loud, thanks

I'm all for stupid animal names of every genre

the duke of zill?! he's the one that got me into this pickle!

well, he is the boss
