I present to you, Bucky Barnes wearing a Hitler t shirt.
That’s the best use of this reaction image I think I’ll ever see.
The anthropologists got it wrong when they named our species Homo sapiens (‘wise man’). In any case it’s an arrogant and bigheaded thing to say, wisdom being one of our least evident features. In reality, we are Pan narrans, the storytelling chimpanzee.
i will never be over the fact that during first contact a human offered their hand to a vulcan and the vulcan was just like “wow humans are fucking wild” and took it
These pads are so bad, even the box is horrified…
We have just filmed the special, which as you may know is set in 1885. I swear to God I couldn’t answer this for laughing for fully five minutes but Steven [Moffat] and I were asked, ‘How can Sherlock Holmes exist in an era without iPhones?’ He just said, ‘There is some history of that’. We are answering all the same questions we were asked five years ago but upside down. Our version has so fundamentally become Sherlock Holmes that people have trouble thinking it could be Victorian.
Neil Gaiman: “We’re working on seeing how many smart-alec answers we can come up with when people ask us how we collaborated.”
Terry Pratchett: “I wrote all the words, and Neil assembled them into certain meaningful patterns… What it wasn’t was a case of one guy getting 2/3 of the money and the other guy doing ¾ of the work.”
NG: “It wasn’t, somebody writes a three-page synopsis, and then somebody else writes a whole novel and gets their name small on the bottom.”
TP: “That isn’t how we did it, mainly because our egos were fighting one another the whole time, and we were trying to grab the best bits from one another.”
NG: “We both have egos the size of planetary cores.”
TP: “Probably the most significant change which you must have noticed [between the British and American editions] is the names get the other way ‘round. They’re the wrong way ‘round on the American edition [where Gaiman is listed first] —”
NG: “They’re the wrong way ‘round on the English edition.”
TP: “Both of us are prepared to admit the other guy could tackle our subject. Neil could write a ‘Discworld’ book, I could do a ‘Sandman’ comic. He wouldn’t do a good ‘Discworld’ book and I wouldn’t do a good ‘Sandman’ comic, but —”
NG: “— we’re the only people we know who could even attempt it.”
TP: “I have to say there’s a rider there. I don’t think either of us has that particular bit of magic, if that’s what it is, that the other guy puts into the work, but in terms of understanding the mechanisms of how you do it, I think we do.”
NG: “There’s a level on which we seem to share a communal undermind, in terms of what we’ve read, what we bring to it.”
