tired of telling people to go fuck themselves? here are some fun new threats to add to your vocabulary:
I oughta cover you in syrup!
I oughta put you in a canoe!
I oughta let a bird walk all over you!
please use with caution because these can be devastating and potentially deadly

We don't acknowledge enough that there's a random person with a dog in the background of Virginity Rocks. What do you think they were thinking?
Picture this, you're just walking your dog through your local park, where you see a man and a woman dressed in bright blue and pink shirts that say "VIRGINITY ROCKS!". They're dancing. And they have a camera crew. You should probably stop going for walks this early in the morning.

Idk if this headcanon makes any sense but I’ve always assumed that every hatchetfield musical just. Takes place after TGWDLM. That’s why they’re all musicals. Is there a lot of evidence to the contrary? Yes. Do I care? No.

i was watching nightmare time s2 and got to killer track and saw a comment saying something about wanting general macnamara to meet miss holloway, and it kinda hit me
do we know how old he is? because they could be related. her brother or even worse, her son.
ok i looked it up, and macnamara is 42 in tgwdlm in 2018, which means he would have been born in 76, while holloway was big in the 80s, and we have no clue to her age beyond that.
it would make sense on how he knows so much and how he's so involved in every single timeline. because in every world miss holloway makes that deal and has her past forgotten, wouldn't it make sense for her son/brother to end up in the same place.
you can erase a past and make people forget it, but if they miss a major part of their life or if they don't. they will try and find out why and how and spend their lives looking for an answer
(and oh my god, this becomes 20 times worse with the idea that wilbur cross is macnamara's husband that some people hc. because holloway and cross are always fighting, and it ends with one of their deaths. average day with the in-laws, I guess)

part of the reason why i find nightmare time episodes so interesting is because in half of them, i'm not even sure who the writers want me to root for.
take honey queen, for example. linda's the focus of it and we see her emotions, motivations & family, so it's expected that she would be the "hero" of the episode. but she isn't. the episode consists of her doing horrible things to zoey, zoey doing horrible things to her, and it gradually escalating to the point of kidnapping and murder. it's due to linda that zoey dies. and she gets what she wants, what the whole episode has been about her vying to achieve, but we as viewers don't feel satisfied, because how can all that's happened possibly be worth such a tiny, temporary, meaningless title? linda's father seems to be proud of her, which is what she's been hoping to gain and added an extra element of sympathy for her character. but in the end, he sacrifices her to an eldritch being because she "the hungriest". honey queen is tragic and comedic and messed up and chaotic and there are The Horrors and nobody is distinctly good.
and that stays the same in every nightmare time episode. so many of these characters wouldn't care a bit if they killed someone, as long as they were able to survive. but that's just hatchetfield. a strange community of selfish people with no clear morals, because that's all they know and that's all they can be if they want to survive. they have a magic child fighting ring, they have evil weed birds, they have clones in the technical department, they have an asexual axe murderer in the woods, they have a wealthy doting mother who's been alive for centuries, they have a 1986 foxbody mustang possessed by a dead psychiatrist, so on and so forth.
the whole hatchetfield universe is so surreal: this is a place where people go missing every day, where gruesome murders are dismissed unless it threatens their football team losing to the clivesdale chemists, where a character can do the most horrendous things or seem absolutely irredeemable, only for the narrative to put them through so much that the audience ends up loving them.
each character is so complex and unique (i could write an essay about literally any of them if i tried to- and yet that includes peanuts the hatchetfield pocket squirrel). none of them are meant to be all good, and none of them are meant to be all bad. they're realistic to their environment and screwed over by their universe and they all have their own lives to focus on.
the vast majority of the antagonistic characters are very beloved in this fandom, because this is hatchetfield, where the most horrifying things are normalised in-universe, so they begin to be for us, too. we don't think it's as awful when we see zoey's body hanging from the rafters, or watch boy jeri be killed by his own son, or see eldritch beings hunt people down, since that's all seen as far more normal in this world. besides that, people like to have flawed characters, it's good to have little fictional freaks committing atrocities since it means the episodes are completely unpredictable.
every volume of nightmare time is a rollercoaster or a fever dream, because they'll take the most unexpected characters and the most random concepts ever and throw them into a completely absurd plot. so many modern pieces of media follow a specific genre or structure, but the hatchetfield universe does whatever the hell it wants, and it's so investing to see. there aren't any limits here, and each episode is a separate timeline, so the creators can go wild and do literally anything with this town. it's like a treasured collection of cracky aus that have been written and performed astonishingly beautifully.
anyway, this is your sign to go check out nightmare time and @blinkysrewatchparty! it will be entirely worth it, i promise <3

Okay but Roman Murray being Paul's uncle which then makes him Linda's cousin is so fucking funny tho irgeishgdkw and yeah there's an explanation as to why Paul knows the layout of Hatchetfield so well (he was a delivery boy?? Or something?? Newspaper boy??) But what if he knows Pinebrooke so well because once per year he's forced to visit this weird eccentric relative of his that lives there and is subjected to the wrath of his attention starved cousin who would NOT let him go home without wearing some kind of make-up

i too would be concerned if a bird that gained telepathic powers from the pot i’d been farming told me to pop a squat and shit in the middle of the farm while he and his other telepathic bird friends watched

I love how Virginity Rocks is implied to be entirely diegetic. Like, it has a title card. Crediting it to Camp Idontwannabang Records. Boy Jerry and Girl Jeri just.. Do this.
