This meme is inescapable on French insta so I'm posting it here for all to enjoy

Always reblog flash debate

on it boss

reminder that the presenter says "oh, shut up" not "can it"

Native French speaker here. "Ta gueule" is actually more like "shut the fuck up" in terms of level of disrespect

also worth noting is that the "are you happy" is the correct gender

It’s crazy and fucked up that being yourself is actually the solution.

It’s like. When I was told to “just be yourself” as a kid I thought it was a passive thing. Like oh easy I just have to sit here and be myself. but the reason so many people think that “being yourself” is bullshit advice is because you actually have to make active choices to do this and it WILL make your life way more fun. You have to wear t-shirts of bands that were popular ten years ago because you like them. You have to do your hair in a way that you find cute or comfortable even if it’s “so nineties”. If your friend says a food you enjoy is gross to them, you can’t be afraid to admit you casually disagree. You have to do hobbies that you’re interested in even if you’re bad at them and you cant feel like you have to get good at something before you tell people it’s an activity you do. You have to read manga and comic books in public and get piercings your relatives think are unattractive. You don’t have to tell people you dislike that you dislike them, but you don’t have to give them your time and attention either. You have to rewatch that kids show you’re nostalgic for even if you’re in your 30s. You have to change your name if you hate it, even if only a few close friends can know. You have to get fun girly drinks at the bar. You have to order hot chocolate when you don’t like coffee and black coffee when you don’t like sweet things. I am still bad at practicing this but it is the only way to make it all tolerable.

I have a post that's gotten thousands of notes so far that starts with the sentence "sometimes you have to be yourself on purpose." Which I think is what you're getting at here. You have to be yourself with intent. Like OP said, it's not a passive thing.

You have to think about the things you like and enjoy and do them on purpose with the intent of enjoying them to the point that you're fully embodying who you are. Find an oddly specific redbubble t shirt that's "the most ME thing ever." Crochet that tiktok cardigan because you think strawberries are cute and then wear it in public. Ask your friends what they associate you with and then lean really hard into the responses you like.

Becoming the fullest, happiest version of you takes leaning into these things. You'll find leaning into your interests or likes and so on helps you embody the happiest version of yourself.

Rewatching this clip and I never really noticed how intimate the last part is. The way that Connor and Leon pair off like it’s just them on the ice, the way Connor leans in to Leon’s chest, Leon aggressive head pat. They’re so proud of each other it actually physically pains me.

do you think commentators get excited when they get to work oilers games and they get the chance to call our line change an “oil change”
