Hey!
Sence insanlar ne zaman ölür?
Bir tabanca mermisiyle kalplerinden vurulduklarında mı ?
Hayır.
Tedavisi olmayan bir hastalıkla harap olduklarında mı ?
Hayır.
Zehirli bir mantardan çorba içtiklerinde mi ?!
Hayır !
İnsanlar; Unutuldukları zaman ölürler.
-Dr. Hiluluk
one of my favorite tropes is when a character is talking in the foreground and something happens in the background that directly contradicts what they’re saying
foreground: character is talking about how they pride themselves on being a good parent
background: character’s 3 year old son starts a car and speeds off
“But never fear. I gave this a lot of thought, and the answer is clear to me now. It’s only natural that there was nothing manly about the rabbit’s way of doing things, because the rabbit wasn’t a man. This is definitive; there can be no question about it. The rabbit was a sixteen-year-old-maiden….and it is precisely this sort of woman that is the cruelest of human types…A maiden’s fury is bitter to the root. She knows no mercy, particularly for the ugly and stupid.”
