I learned something new today

Random notes & things I think are neato. Dance, dinosaurs (well, not many), words, and really random facts.

I just saw an American commercial for “Tim Horton’s Coffee and Bake Shop”

byrontobuffy:

It was so surreal

They were advertising Timmy’s like I didn’t already know what it was

Do Americans really live in a Tim Horton’s-less world?

That must be such a hollow existence. Where do you go for cheap but good coffee? And sandwiches? And donuts and muffins and cookies?

How do you survive?

I am burdened with glorious purpose.

  • To say thank you to my followers and to celebrate The Avengers’ success, I have decided to do a giveaway.

This is my bargain.

How desperate are you?

  • You can reblog this post a MAXIMUM of THREE times. Likes also count.
  • Following me does not increase your chances of winning, so please don’t feel compelled to do so unless you just really enjoy an insane amount of Tom Hiddleston all over your dash.
  • Yes, I will ship anywhere in the world.
  • Please make sure your ask box is open so I can contact you if you win. I would hate to have to choose someone else.

YOU GUYS NEARLY 11,000 OF YOU PUT UP WITH ME ON A DAILY BASIS. You guys listen to more of my crap than my own boyfriend generally does. That deserves rewarding. So this is an extra SPECIAL tea give away, and there will be THREE winners. Oh my god. Want a chance to become one of those lucky three people? Read on and follow directions.

THE PRIZES:

  • First Place Prize: A set of all seven Sherlock Shipper tea blends [Sherlock/Moriarty, Sherlock/Irene, Moriarty/Moran, Mycroft/Lestrade, Lestrade/John, Lestrade/Molly, Molly/Moriarty]
  • Second Place Prize: A set of all four* Avengers Teas [Thor, Loki, Steve Rogers, and Coulson *and possibly also Tony Stark if I make a tea for him soon]
  • Third Place Prize: A set of all three Doctor Who Teas [The TARDIS, Amy Pond, and Rory]
  • IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE PRIZE PACKS: Each winner will get ONE blend specially created for them. It can be a character or ship or show or book or whatever that I haven’t done that they’d like me to do. It can even be a blend made based on THEM. Whatever the winners would like. They each get to request one, and they will receive it with their other teas.

I MIGHT ADD TO THESE PRIZES. If this gets reblogged like, a lot, or something, I might lose my head and also send the winners mugs to go with their tea. Or a book. WE’LL SEE.

THE RULES: 

  • Anyone ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD can enter EXCEPT AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND!! I am SUPER sorry for my followers down under because not only do you have to put up with terrifying wild life, you can’t even allow tea to be imported to help comfort you. Sorry, there’s like, crazy laws and stuff.
  • You do not have to be following me to win, but it might be helpful to keep track of updates or changes (if any). Plus I plan to make some blends for other fandoms in the future, so if tea is your thing, it might not be a bad idea?
  • Only two reblogs a day allowed.I did not realize how often people would reblog my last big give away soooo I’m going to enforce this LOL. You can reblog on as many days as you’d like, but yeah, only 2 reblogs a day please. I’ll be checking.
  • LIKES DON’T COUNT. Sorry! You have to reblog!
  • The give away will end and I will choose the winners on FRIDAY JUNE 1STI’ll probably do the drawing late at night on that day, so I’m going to say I’ll stop counting reblogs at 10 p.m. EST. Winners may not be announced until the next day or so, just to be aware!
  • Here’s how the winners will be selected: Just like all of my other give aways, I’ll compile a spreadsheet or numbered list of all of the reblogs, and I’ll use the number generator on random.org to chose a number and find the corresponding username on the list. The first number I draw will win the first place prize (or, if they are more into Avengers or Doctor Who, they may chose one of the other prizes). Second number I draw will win the second place prize (or a choice between whatever two packs remain), and the third number drawn will receive the last prize!

Loki commands an army of ponies. Your argument is invalid. ^_^

Glagolitic is the first known Slavic alphabet. The creation of the alphabet is generally ascribed to Saints Cyril and Methodius in roughly 862 CE. It was used for religious and governmental writings until the 12th century, when it began to lose out to (the much simpler) Cyrillic alphabet. (Cyrillic, by the way, is named in homage to Saint Cyril, but he did not have anything to do with its creation.)

Pictured here are the Baška tablet, one of the earliest known examples of written Croatian (dating from 1100 CE), and a transliteration of Glagolitic.

Giveaway time! a couple of days ago I passed 500 followers and I decided I wanted to do a tiny giveaway, well now that there are already over 700 of you awesome peeps following me I wanted to let you know how much I love and appreciate every single one of you, so here it is.

I will be giving away 2 Avengers!Loki posters 17x27” (45x70 cm) in standard glossy poster paper.

You know, nothing fancy, just a couple of posters of mischief since I am a broke college student.

Giveaway is open internationally, I will send this to whichever corner of Midgard you happen to be living at and I will also throw in there a couple of 8x10” prints in photographic paper of some of my fave Loki shots and a cute note with all my love.

So here are the rules:

  • You don’t have to be following me, but if you do it’s much appreciated.
  • Since I don’t expect a lot of action here I guess both likes and reblogs count and you can reblog as many times as you wish.
  • … I guess that’s it, I’m a noob and I have no idea what else I am supposed to add here.
  • Oh yes, keep your askbox open so I can contact you when you win.

Since today is thorsday the 10th of may, I’ll give this.. what?.. 2 weeks?.. yeah, I’ll be picking the winners (via random.org) on thorsday the 24th at 5 p.m. GMT.

Good luck! and.. if it’s all the same to you, I’ll have that drink now.
