#Mac’s childhood

[kennysaysthings]

Mac getting called Mac here and there in his “Ronnie the rat” days and probably before but not embracing it until he watched Predator (1987) and it became his favorite movie for many years, and he thought the name Mac was so badass after watching that movie that he started making people call him it until it stuck.

Of course he was late to watch the movie because it’s rated R and while they didn’t have supervision most of the time he probably didn’t even watch this movie for the first time until after meeting Dennis.

and if I said that dennis’ insistence on being the breadwinner/provider despite literally being a pampered princess who dgaf about traditional roles of masculinity in every other regard (aside from ego) is because his mom only stayed with/chose frank for his wealth and dennis is highly aware that he’s difficult to love and unable to show his emotions openly so he has to be contributing something to the relationship materially in order to feel like he’s worth staying for… and mac grew up with parents who were extremely ambivalent to him and eachother so he has to overcompensate by proving his worth at every given moment and seeking praise/validation from people (and religious icons) who will never demonstrate the same amount of dedication to him but he has no idea how else to desperately keep himself close to those he loves other than by eroding himself into something they’ll approve of… dear god they’re both exactly what the other needs — someone who can’t and won’t leave them even if they try — and they don’t even see it…

#dennis thinks he’s losing his edge and mac thinks he’s perfect anyway #mac feels like no one in his life has ever needed him enough to stay but dennis can’t stay away #IM ILLLLLL about these men from the world’s stupidest sitcom #sorry if this got a little freudian I don’t LITERALLY mean it in the sense that mac/dennis are seeking something that reminds them of their #parents (gross) (although pretty character accurate to the SINNED system) #but rather that our childhoods teach us what we should expect and look out for in life #and it never really leaves us #this all stemmed from me contemplating MADMTTS and how it would’ve made way more sense for mac (high energy adhd) to be out in the world #and dennis (bpd anger issues) to be indoors free from the triggers of the world #but they INSISTED on mac being housewife dennis being breadwinner #same as their little battle over supposed roles/dynamics as hugh honey/vic vinegar/brian lefevre etc #you are two queer men why on earth do you care about sticking to heterosexual gender roles #but it was never about the gender roles it was about what they self-assign their value to… #mac and dennis #mac mcdonald #dennis reynolds #iasip #it’s always sunny in philadelphia #its always sunny #macdennis #macden

I can't believe in 16 seasons we have never had an episode about the twins' birthday. Just think about the traditions that must exist after 47 years, the competition that would ensue, and maybe even a little wholesomeness? I need it.

#season 17 🙏 #dennis and dee trying to get all the attention for themself #frank telling stories about childhood birthdays of theirs and probably having traditions of his own #mac completely ignoring that it is dee's too #charlie getting manipulated by both twins to go against the other and either being conflicted and confused or playing the double agent #and dennis and dee teaming up in the end to be the most annoying people you have ever seen #iasip

[deeenjoyer]

i think it’s far funnier to believe sweet dee is named that ironically than some “it was unironic before she hit her head and changed her personality” bullshit

i love the idea of her being a little terror at 7 years old (i KNOW those twins were hell to babysit) and earning the nickname out of pure evilness

“what cute kids you have, that little blonde girl is so sweet!” meanwhile dee is setting a squirrel on fire in the backyard because dennis thought it was cute

#dennis learned from the best #idk i just found the roller rink episode to be weirdly the opposite of the entire premise of the show #like they didn’t buy the bar to help someone out they did it because they thought it would be endless chicks and partying #i think character traits have to be earned and implying that dee isn’t like that because of her childhood but some outside factor is :( #iasip #its always sunny in philadelphia #dennis reynolds #dee reynolds #charlie kelly #mac macdonald #sunnyblr #frank reynolds #text #sweet dee

do you even like macdennis if you can't handle the fact that mac is also a piece of shit to dennis

#macdennis #iasip #like what are you even doing here lmao #mac literally sexually harasses dennis on the daily #he poisons him #he had a sex doll made of him?!?!?!??? #and he slept with his mom for gods sake #he's awful to him just like dennis is to him #that's why they're so good!!!!! #god i love childhood friends to.... whatever toxic codependent fuckery they've got going on lol #convinced some people only ship them bc they're canon (or have the potential to be canon whatever your take is) #you don't have to like every queer 'canon' ship it's okay lol #ds.txt

whats your favorite kind of pasta?

i miss her every day

#please does anyone remember these. its been 16 years. these were SO good and thats probably the childhood pokemon autism talking #but also shaped macaroni holds sauce well and has a good texture. i should buy some shaped mac and cheese again when i can. #i am an adult and i can do this. #but OK my real answer is #assuming you mean noodle shapes #my heart says the bowtie looking ones those were my favorite as a child #ALSO the shell shaped ones #as an adult i say. why pit so many queens against each other #asks

[fatmaclover]

mac being referred to as joyces boy. her boy. hes her boy. mac being the person to understand joyces writing the easiest. they belong to each other theyre each others lost halves if they were ever separated they would stop functioning. auawhhrhwuah

#mac mcdonald #joyce kelly #joymac #....... #i dont think ill tag charmac. i care u guys but their relationship is more complex than that to me #the childhood best friends -> fag/dyke solidarity that ends up with them closer together than with any partners of the same gender #they need to be able to be each others beards if they werent so outwardly queer #they need to feel a little weird about how easily they make each other laugh and how their hearts sometimes flutter around each other #im sorry if you dont have a friend that makes you question your sexuality after youre supposed to have figured it out #what are you doing #platonic love should be confusing for them. like everything else is. #iasip

Obviously the whole ‘little Tim Drake is left all alone with only a housekeeper Mrs Mac who just comes briefly a few days a week” thing is often just for people who want that specific angst, not canon accuracy…

But I feel like a lot of people simply do not know that not only did Mrs Mac not work for the Drakes until Tim was already a 14 year old Robin, but she was a live-in maid. She lived at Drake Manor. Far from only popping in every few days, she was at Drake Manor almost 24/7 and Tim had to sneak past her to go on patrol sometimes.

Mrs Mac literally does not seem to have a place to live in the US other than where she is meant to stay in Drake Manor, because her husband lives in Kilkenny, Ireland and that’s where she goes back to when they had to fire her.

When Tim’s dad is gone she’s home with Tim making him meals and cleaning. When the Drakes briefly move across the country she moves with them because she lives with them. From what we see in comics Tim is rarely intentionally left home alone and when he is, not only is he already a teenager but also his dad is very conscientious of Tim being home alone.

(This does not, however, mean that Tim does not sneak away from supervision. He does that constantly. Case in point: when Bruce was looking for a kidnapped Jack Drake and Tim got away from Mrs Mac by claiming he was going on vacation with Ives when he was actually sleeping in his dad’s penthouse to do Robin stuff in the city.)

#tim drake #batfam #for his childhood pre comics it’s hard to extrapolate bc by the time we see Jack’s parenting he’s decided to ‘be a better parent.’ #but we know Tim was sent to boarding school & his parents do seem concerned so I’d be surprised if he was *intentionally* left alone a lot #(however by the time tim was 13 he was either very good at sneaking away OR they started letting him have more leeway recently) #(because on his school break 13 yr old tim goes to nyc by himself to find Dick & during robin training he spends breaks at Wayne Manor) #(he was still in boarding school until his mom died though! Bruce was the one to put him in public school instead of boarding school!) #heroesriseandfall #canon vs fanon #mrs mac #jack drake

I can see Little Mac and Disco kid watching those goanimate Caillou gets grounded videos when they were younger.

#punch out #punch out headcanons #little mac #disco kid #this was my childhood brainrot #I was afraid of getting in trouble for watching them so I did it in secret #I didn’t even know why I just had a feeling #I heard some people did get grounded for watching caillou gets grounded though #I stopped when my brother asked me about inappropriate videos

[goodobservationshirley]

Now that I have kids, I... I realize how... rough our childhoods were.

#paper girls #papergirlsedit #this made me so emotional #my girl mac getting to hear #from probably the only person she would trust to have an opinion on it #that her childhood was (is!) not okay #that she deserves better and that it isn't her fault #priceless #*mine

Dennis says the L word

#i definitely didnt have this kicking around on my hard drive #iasip #it's always sunny in philadelphia #dennis reynolds #the genuine ones being within his daydream where he has been forcibly desexualized by losing use of his dick & actually falling in love #in mac's fantasy where he fucking dies and dennis was too late to say it #forced out of necessity by dennis' fear of abandonment by dee #spoken when he believes theyre in a life or death situation and hoping to connect with dee at the very end #telling his wife that he does not love her while looking to mac and then reaffirming this saying he's NEVER loved her #and of course while absolutely shitfaced and upset at the loss of his childhood stuffed elephant (and dee's betrayal) #ill be real. the second i heard him say a bunch of shit about feelings & how he loved the monkey in 15x4 i had to check to see who wrote it #it had been SO long................ like of course glenn is the one to bring it back. ok. #more of den saying he loves things plz #ada speaks #ada's videos #if you guys can think of any other times he's said it pleasssseeee let me know lol i tried #update: i added in a few more #left out the ones in 7x01 w him talking about loving no restrictions bc i wanted this to be abt him expressing Love to sentient beings #loving crack and loving a person are two different L words jskhbshn
