Cute Video a Friend Sent Yesterday

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hi, Fluffsters! Happy Sunday!

A friend sent me this video, with the description of “If you have a free 15 minutes, this’ll probably be the cutest video you watch all day.”

That was an accurate description. For me, anyway.

Anyways. Since the video is 15 minutes long, I’ll just stop the commentary here.

Enjoy!

Thoughts from Kids

Hi, Fluffsters!

Today I’m sharing somebody else’s listed humor. I found it quite funny. Basically, it’s a list of “deep thoughts” from kids aged 5-15. Wide age range, I know, but some of the teenagers have the funniest comments.

Isn’t it kindof funny looking at the differences in answers? From my perspective, the teens were very likely going for the laughs. The youngsters probably were just giving the first thing that came to mind.

But what do you think?

Finished Dragon

Hi, Fluffsters! Happy Friday!

Today’s post is a bit short. But basically, a dragon I built a bit ago just came out of second firing, and so it’s finished and has color, and I’m really happy with how it turned out.

Here’s a picture for your to admire.

Purple-y dark colored dragon

I’m not quite sure what color this dragon is…

The Mary Sue and “Protagonist Flaws”

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, reader! It is I again, Fluffy McGiggles, Melodramatic Actress Extraordinaire.

As demonstrated by that overly flowery introduction sentence.

Today, I bring a tale of woe to you about writing. For you see, readers, there exists out there an evil character masquerading as good. She sneaks upon you unexpectedly, and corrupts whatever writing she manages to infiltrate. She is… the Mary Sue.

What, you ask, is the Mary Sue? Well, she is the “perfect” character. As in, she literally has no flaws. Any “flaws” that she has would, in other characters (or in real life people) be considered virtues. This list of “flaws only a protagonist could have” essentially summarizes the Mary Sue set of character flaws. The list is quite amusing, also.

Alas, I fear that there will always be Mary Sues in works of writing, especially as teenage girls are now capable of posting their works of written fiction online. However, I hope that some will avoid them.

If you have encountered a Mary Sue, I give you my sincerest sympathy, and hope that you have managed to escape relatively unscathed.

I now wish you a joyous Wednesday.

Engineers Again

Greetings, readers! I bid thee a joyous Tuesday.

I recently encountered this amusing tale about a company problem.

It involves a multi-million dollar decision from a CEO and a solution that may or may not be expected by some people.

I encourage you to read it.

I hope you enjoy.

New “Twiddle”

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Hello, Fluffsters!

I bought a new Shiny a couple days ago. It’s a pretty little ring. It’s also my first pretty little ring that I intend to wear on a regular basis. I’m not posting pictures of it, because I’m a bit too lazy to do so. But it’s a silver ring, and it’s got a red stone in the middle. It’s really fun having something on my right hand. Basically, it provides instant “twiddle” ability.

It’s really fun. Any time I’m feeling fidgety, I can just twist the ring around, or pull it half off my finger, put it on, switch fingers, twist it some more, and just generically be fidgety without actually being destructive to something. Or way too active.

It’s really fun having something I can play with.

Happy Monday!

Star Wars Day – John Williams Tribute

Hello, Fluffsters! Happy Star Wars Day!

…Star Wars Day?

“May the Fourth” be with you. (It sounds like “May the Force be with you.”)

…Ah.

Yes. It’s one of my favorites.

In honor of today, I’m sharing one of the best YouTube video song thingies I’ve heard, and am surprised I haven’t shared yet: The John Williams Tribute to Star Wars. It’s a fantastic piece, and you should totally watch it.

Have a great day!

Witty Responses

Note: If this is your first time to TotalFluff, please visit this brief explanation. Thanks!

Greetings, Readers!

Today, I am here to assist you with your attempts at humorous responses to people in general.

Sometimes, people use particular words to take up space in a conversation. When such phrases occur, if you memorize a few witty responses, you can sometimes lighten the mood.

With you, dear reader, in mind, here is a short list of:

Some Witty Responses to Some Normal Phrases

1) “So”. This “phrase” is traditionally used to change the topic, or to continue a previous topic, but in a slightly awkward fashion. You see this one used in writing. When it is used for the purpose of being a time filler, or when it seems appropriate and does not seem to blend in too well with the next word, you can add “said the seamstress.” (Or tailor, if you prefer.)

The explanation behind this: A homophone of “so” is “sew”. Tailors and seamstresses sew. Ergo, “‘sew,’ said the seamstress.”

2) “Well.” This phrase is used similarly to “so.” If there is an appropriate pause, adding “a deep subject” can be droll. After all, wells (from which many gather water) are deep. Therefore, a well would, in fact, be a deep subject.

3) “Bye.” I assume you all know when this one is used. An amusing comeback to this one is “sell.” (This, obviously, works off the pun between bye/buy.)

3b) “Sell.” If someone uses this fluff response on you, there is a way to respond to this. “Phones.” The exchange therefore turns into “bye sell phones”, or “Buy cellphones.”

And with that, readers, I hope your conversations become a bit wittier. I also bid thee a joyous weekend.

“Fun” with national anthems

Greetings, readers! I wish you a happy Friday.

As you are aware, I am studying your culture. One of the aspects I find particularly fascinating is your music. Well, I recently discovered this particular interesting video. It is of the United States National Anthem, but sung in minor key.

I hope you enjoy.
