Today’s Hottake: U Can Always Tell If A Version Of Sherlock Holmes Is Decent By How Irene Adler Is

I visited the museum last month, and my initial reaction to NOT!Lady Eva from the Milverton dramatization was that she looks exactly like Terry Jones in drag. That really affected the experience, I tell you. I kept hearing ‘he’s not the Messiah, he’s a very naughty boy’ in my head throughout the rest of the exhibit. 

I Have Beheld the Sherlock Holmes Museum.

I knew it would be cheesy. I was hoping it would be the right kind of cheesy. My hopes were fulfilled beyond my wildest dreams.

If you are planning to visit this place one day, and don’t want spoilers, let me just offer you the following advice: Go early. At noon, when we were finally admitted after waiting for at least half an hour in the broiling sun, the queue was already down the block. Since the museum itself takes about half an hour (we did it in 20 minutes due to time pressure…it’s a long story), I don’t recommend waiting in line for it any longer than that. It’s a tall, narrow, old-fashioned townhouse, so they don’t let in more than about 15 people at a time.

All right. Let me tell you about this ‘museum.’

They kinda explored that angle (Watson being hurt by Holmes’ deception) in the stage play with Jeremy and Edward, did they not? I wish there was video footage of that play somewhere. 

The relationship between Holmes and Watson in the BBC adaptation feels downright antagonistic to me, which is one of the (many) reasons I’ve stopped watching that show.

“…my most treasured possession”

This kinda looks familiar, I'm not sure it's recent? Could be wrong, though.

I read it somewhat differently. It could be about shipping, but the whole “own personal stories” made me think about Jared’s AKF campaign. He started a good thing, and now fans think dumping their emotional baggage on him during cons is perfectly reasonable.

Creation changed their policy about questions. This is on the screen at Vancon right now.

If it’s the the Impala, I’ll throw a fit. Baby is the third main character. She has been more integral to the plot during the show’s ten year run than Castiel, Crowley or any of the side characters.

Here’s another idea. Let the bunker blow up instead and get the boys back on the road, where they belong. The only way this current batch of writers can think of in order to create drama is by fabricating a contrived conflict between the brothers, adding to a neverending cycle of guilt and resentment and unresolved issues. It’s a lazy plot device which is recycled to death at by this point. Why not have them united against a common enemy rather than fighting each other, for a change? 

Jensen volunteered during his lounge, when asked about giving us a minor spoiler, that another fan favourite will die, and that he has no idea how the writers are going to dig themselves out of that one. 

Count me worried now.

“Wisdom hairs”. I’m gonna use that. I started greying in my teens.

Following Roger’s comments about ‘Match for Africa 6’ at his Wimbledon 3rd round press conference, a friend on Twitter requested this...I would say this is out of context but who knows with these two

If you like the thought of Destiel, ship it to your heart’s content. But fanon doesn’t equal canon. Dean has explicitly identified himself as straight in the show, Jensen Ackles has identified Dean as straight, Eric Kripke (the series creator) has identified Dean as straight. Have you even watched the show? 

Why are some destiel shippers so angry that Dean is straight? It doesn’t have any effect on your fantasy. Dean’s sexuality is not open for debate, he likes women, yes only women. No, there isn’t any secret storyline that’s been hidden for the last 11 years. Dean fucks women and lots of them :) Shhh, don’t be so angry, keep shipping your little Dean/Cas thing, be happy with it, just stop pretending like SPN is going to rewrite Dean as gay or bi, never gonna happen. 

I hope you realize that in real life, Satan is merely using you for his sick and disgusting sexual fantasies and the worst thing is, is that you're not even aware of it and you're enjoying it. He likes to toy with the minds of both men and women when they should horrified and disgusted as to being used and abused in such a way. Angels and demons may do this to people, but never the Lord as he doesn't abuse his children. I hope 1 day you'll be able to seek him out.

1. This hardly english and I am not sure I understand it all. Angels and Demons do what now?!

2. How do you know what I do and do not believe? I never speak religion on Tumblr. My friends knows but it is not something I shout to the public cause I rather not be haunted by religious nuts aka you. 

3. Why are you preaching to me? What did I do to derserve a long speech about the “real” Satan? I don’t write Lucifer fics!

Have a nice night anon and go preach somewhere else. I do not need saving!

Oh man, you’re right. “Figures 21,22,23 - Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson make a rather macabre discovery in the church vault at Shoscombe Old Place” (I was there a month ago).
