#like dean lived and breathed tv and movies bc ~adhd headcanon~ it was a form of entertainment that kept him engaged and stimulated

the thing is. while i don’t always understand dean’s references i DO talk like that inserting my own collection of references and phrases and word associations. the deancoded of it all speaking completely incomprehensibly 

#not to be the 'everything is a symptom of adhd' meme but i Do feel like this is an adhd brain thing #like just jumping around and making associations and references that are Obvious to you but other ppl don't see or wouldnt get ? #my sister and i talk exclusively in references and we both have like the same brain #i always find it odd that sam doesn't really get dean's references or jump off them #and it just drives home for me how different their childhoods and experiences were #like dean lived and breathed tv and movies bc ~adhd headcanon~ it was a form of entertainment that kept him engaged and stimulated #while sam was a total bookworm and also tried to spend as much time as possible at friends' houses and stuff #like dean was LONELY so lonely and so it makes sense that he found so much comfort in media and pop culture #to the point that his language and the way he communicates is steeped with those references #he literally learned about the real world through television he learned everything he knows abt relationships and people thru tv #he knows real life isn't like that but he wants it so bad it's his unattainable ideal the family sitcom where the dad always hugs you #and knows just what to say and where the mom is always there and where there's always dinner on the table #where every problem gets solved in a half hour #movies where the bad guy always dies and the beats are familiar and predictable #whooops these tags have turned into a dean and tv thesis my bad djgkdfg #vic.txt
