Things Genx And Older Parents Will Never Understand

Moving from Hannibal to Criminal Minds

This was hilarious because not only am I processing the switch from who I root for from killer to catcher but on one of the early episodes I was amused where they were talking about baltimore and commented on the kill saying the local PD have ‘never seen anything like it’ and just as a whole these kills are a whole lot less theatrical than anything anyone in Hannibal does.

my threatening mental health crisis: -rumbles ominously

me: -flicking back through- well i might be able to fit something in on Thursday
