Blood is thicker than water but maple syrup is thicker than blood so technically pancakes are more important than family.
Interestingly, I was just reading something about the saying ‘blood is thicker than water’ and how it means the opposite of how it is normally used.
The first recorded use of the phrase (John Lydgate’s ‘Troy Book’, 1492) gives it as:
The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb.
So, basically, what it really means is that the people who you choose to bond with matter more than the family you happened to be born into.
EXCELLENT THINGS TO KNOW

bitter hater Chris Brown being one of only about 2 people not standing for Frank Ocean.
Sorry Chris, it was only commendable when Jay-Z did it to you.
Missing Child in Indianapolis Area
Please reblog.
Missing girl from Indianapolis, Indiana. Please reblog! I pray and hope she will be found safe and be back home with her family.
I just googled - they found her!
“#juggie #jughead #jughead jones #ethel #big ethel #archie comics#feminism”
It occurs to me that Big Ethel is the epitomie of a “Nice Girl”. Except she’s basically a stalker, and was never even, friends with Juggie, and actually does think she deserves Jughead. Here we see her upgrading to potential sexual assault. Lol, wacky comics.
hay gurl,
just a heads up that the feminism tag is a tip of the hat to my number one supreme babe, Jughead Jones, for letting his potential molester know he ain’t down to clown.
Feminism is also about dudes feeling safe, desired, willing and wanting during their sexual encounters too! It is about men not feeling pressured to be a male archetype and refuse sex without shame or consequence. It is about them expressing themselvesin feminine ways if they so wish and being open to feminity in their peers.
Basically, Jughead is a poster boy for feminism - even if he thinks women are g-r-o-s-s.
Thanks for your assumptions!
xoxo,
Menot to Ethel.
Great news: Teens in NYC will be able to get emergency contraception in school!
Hope this spreads like wildfire. This is important.

Because you don’t want to sound neolithic when you’re throwing a temper tantrum.
Because everyone should have this on their blog

This is straight up seven up the best, because yes, exactly. Chesterton had a great line - fairytales are more than true, not because they tell us that dragons are real, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten. And I think for kids, that’s waaaaay more important than hearing “there’s no such thing as monsters.”
For example, when I was six and convinced there was a monster under my bed, my parents let me sleep with a baseball bat.
I am going to print this out when I go to babysitting jobs?
And use these tactics?
And when the kids doubt me I’ll tell them that it comes in the Official Adult Handbook in the section “Combating Monsters” although I can’t decide if that would make them more upset or not
My mother used the nightlight and the spray bottle, although for us it was a can of air freshener. It worked.
