Humorous Tumblr Post Imagines College Students Living With Addams Family


Leave it to the creative and wandering minds of Tumblr to entertain the kinds of ideas the rest of the world would otherwise overlook. Like, you know, what it'd be like to live with the Addams Family as a college student. Basically, you'd be able to count on a rent-free kind of living situation that's counterbalanced by acts of constant sword fighting chaos, and some very nitpicky editors when it comes time to write your thesis. Check out some more gold from Tumblr with this recent thread about the summonable evil whales of Iceland

Font - guilty-as-battery-charged The Addams Family renting out rooms in their huge mansion cheaply to broke college students. The students digging it because the craziness and the bugs are pretty much the same as any other dorm house. Also, Morticia and Gomez treat them all like visiting cousins, not like tenants to abuse and exploit.

Font - guiltyhipster One of the tenants is a creative writing major and Gomez and Morticia house them up in the tower because of the quiet and the inspiring view They're supposed to be working on a typical coming-of-age story but after living with the Addams for just a week the project is becoming a horror-Gothic-romance

Font - They go to their room after classes one day and find Thing correcting the grammar errors in the manuscript with a red pen specialstarfish and yeah, the students pay roughly market value for their rooms, but that doesn't stop gomez from shouting "capital idea!" and handing them wads of cash when they tell him about their weekend plans or what they're researching, so they basically end up living there for free

Fester and Pugsley find out one of the college students is trying to get into chemistry and woo boy, there has never been a faster study of

Font - how to counter various acidic chemical reactions due to "water" balloons in campus history. Morticia and Grammy are keeping the horticulturalists on their toes with their Black Tulip/Rose hybrids, which can flick their barbs a foot away from their stem system. But it's fine, one of the kids has managed to breed Aloe with the anti venom.

Font - Lurch makes sandwiches for everyone who's too much of a coward for Grammy's cooking. Any music major will find him looming over them, utterly stone faced as they practise until they finish, when he'll smile, and slowly applaud. And the spookiest thing of all Wednesday and Thing will find your thesis. They will critique it in every way imaginable. There is no escape.

Font - aardvarkingmad I especially love the idea of Gomez spotting a student in the library, throwing a sword at a startled student, shouting, "En garde!" and lunging at him/her with a sword of his own. Student (later in life), when asked how she jumps from quietly doing research to handling a sudden influx of ER cases so quickly and easily, says, "When you have to snap out of deep concentration on biochem to fight for your life then get back to biochem without losing your train of thought..you
