A Dazzling Collection Of Splendid Tumblr Gems


The strange wandering minds of Tumblr never fail to leave us amazed, confused, and genuinely entertained. You never really know what you're going to get from Tumblr. Sometimes, you end up with an intense hyper-analysis of the movie, "The Incredibles", and other times you end up with an informative, wholesome little thread about the origins of NORAD's Santa Tracker.

Tumblr: But they can't do anything villainous or complex ever. scaliefox My favorite quote on this is Lemony Snickett when a school district banned his book due to the marriage plot by the villain.

Lighting - O catchymemes When people did not have clocks, they used "candle clocks". Candles that would burn for a set amount of hours. If you needed an alarm, you would push a nail at the desired time length in the candle and once it melted to the point, the nail would fall and hit the metal holder, alerting you. phantomtwitch I like that the candle pictured has four nails in it. Ye olde snooze button.
