I can imagine Dally and Darry looking reeeally alike, and also the similar nicknames, causing confusion in town.
It's not a confusion that usually lasts a long time, tho. It's two or three days of pure curiosity until someone dares to ask them:
"Hey, are you two brothers?"
And their faces just say it all. Like, they're really Surprised to say the least, and Darry somehow manages to have a look on his face as if someone told them there was a bomb on his house. Dally looks like he had won a million dollars.
Dally definitely uses it to intimidate people bigger than him, (it's not that he can't deal with them, but that most times he's not in the mood go back to Buck's with a black eye or something like that), so he's like
"You know Darry Curtis?" And the person he's talking to looks confused, they're not sure why Darry is being brought up to the conversation, they nod their head. "Well, that's my brother. So, yo know, he's gonna find you if you put a hand on me, and that wouldn't be good"
Somehow the person believes it and they look really frustrated as they leave, and then Dally goes on with his life
But it also brings lots of confusions around the Curtis house.
Like (imagine in a context where Dally is still pretty new in Tulsa) suddenly, Tim Shepard comes to the Curtis house, and Darry is genuinely surprised but tells him "hey, dude, is everything ok? You wanna come in?"
But Tim is like "Knock it off, Curtis, you tell your brother to stop messing shit with my car or I'll beat the shit out of him"
So Darry calls Soda. And he makes Sodapop apologize to Tim. But Tim has this look on his face that's like Are you fucking kidding me?
"Not Soda, the other one"
So Darry calls Pony. And Pony has barely any idea of what is going on.
"I'm talking about the one with the leather jacket, you idiot"
And it takes him genuinely five minutes for Darry to understand that they're talking about Dallas.
"Oh, no, man, Dally's not my brother"
"No shit, Sherlock, I figured that out."
Darry still makes Dallas apologizd with tears for damaging Tim's car AND lying
so it's all good :3

Y'know this little throwaway gag is so bizarre to me and I know this game is a bit very different to 2 and 3 but look at Matt's reaction when Jack raids the place in 3:
You'd argue he's simply stopping Jack bc he hates this guy and he also hates this job which Could Be True but i highly doubt bc overall despite his virginity and overall cursed vibe, Matt seems to be a good employee, by all means (I mean, Peter literally gave him a vacation instead of firing him in 2, so that says a lot).
Plus, Dave hates this guy as much as he hates him! He literally always calls him creepy and, AND!
This is the only footage you get of the prize corner in 2. Which is also the first game to show Matt and Dave's disdain for one another, Dave being likely more scared of Matt than Matt will ever be of him.
Which is all very curious. 2 does set a drastic change for Matt too with him going from being just strange to outright creepy, so was the old pizza place closing something that actually affected him or was he consistently that creepy all along? And if the later, did he just start hating Dave after that or did they always have beef and they simply had some sort of arrangement (or even higher word from Steven who tended to let Dave do whatever he wanted in general) that let him do so?

Love going on Twitter for three seconds to look at Batman yaoi and being hit with the worlds most milk brained fucking takes. This is the road ‘eyeliner wings so sharp they could kill a man’ feminism has led us lmao.
Like I love makeup and I shave my body but I’m not going play retard and pretend that the comfort and confidence I inherently gain from doing such actions isn’t because I was raised in a misogynistic society?? I don’t think women realize just how subconscious this integration is and how subtly it can be fed to us over time. How this shit literally started from our birth. “You can’t disparage the forced societal expectations that dictate a woman’s appearance and worth because some women LIKE those things!!!” euhhdhhshhehbebbd <- brain cells officially dead

i’m just gonna type here, fuck making this coherent idc lol. ok. dean getting cas back from the empty and convincing himself that cas deserves better than him so he leaves the confession unaddressed to let cas come to the conclusion that he can do better, that he should move on, even though dean desperately wants castiel to keep loving him and he wants to let himself tell cas he loves him back, but the self doubt and self hatred always wins (no matter what cas said about him, he’s blinded by love apparently and dean figures cas can’t see how fucked up he truly is) so he just keeps quiet in hopes that cas will realize that he deserves someone who can love him just as easily as he loves them. of course, cas thinks dean doesn’t love him back and is just grateful that his confession didn’t ruin their friendship, he knows he will never move on but having dean in his life will always be enough for him
