20 Day Gravity Falls Challenge
Day 09: Favorite Minor/Background CharacterCAN WE JUST TAKE A MOMENT TO APPRECIATE BURLY/BATS BIKER?! He’s so cute! Like I love when they enter the bar and everyone is super manly and tough and then Mabel plays with the paper thingy and he just wants to know if his future wife will love him! And then in the Summerween episode how he sheds a tear seeing the twins dancing, he’s like a big tough ball of cuteness and love. He’s the best and I really want to see more of him!
I just now noticed the fact that he has the word “bats” tattooed on his arm.
Anyone that likes bats that much is a good egg in my book.

Anonymous: The fruit bats. I only saw the strawberry one well enough. Do they others have a certain fruit body that matches their color?
From what I could tell, they all have the same body shape, but only the red ones (are meant to) have light-colored “seeds” in their fur.
This little purple guy might have been an animation error, I think.
They sure were cute, though!
I feel pretty
Oh so pretty
I feel pretty and witty and bright
And I pity
Any bat who isn’t me tonight.
I may or may not have reblogged this before, but I need some cute bat right about now.

BABBY BATS OMG CAN’T EVEN
THEY LOOK SO SOFT AND FUZZY OMFG
Every year, I eventually have to stop at a Walgreens at some point during the month of October.
And every year, I pick myself up a little Ty Halloween beanie bat.
And every year…
…they keep getting fucking weirder.
The pumpkin one was odd enough…
But
the fuck, man
DID THE BAT DIE A TRAGIC DEATH OR SOME SHIT?
IS THAT WHY HE’S A GHOST
WAS HE MURDERED BY A JEALOUS LOVER
OR WAS HE UNFAIRLY EXECUTED FOR CRIMES HE DIDN’T COMMIT
WHY
WHY IS THE BAT A GHOST
Historical Facts That Sound Like a Load of Whacked-Out Horse Shit, But Are Actually True!
The United States actually trained live bats to drop bombs during World War II.
The bats, cooled down in ice cube trays prior to shipping to put them into hibernation mode, would be housed inside a bomb-shaped canister that would deploy a small parachute. As the bomb slowly fell, the bats would have plenty of time to warm up. As soon as the altitude reached 1,000 ft., the canister would open, releasing over 1,000 Mexican Free-Tailed bats carrying small, time-delayed incendiary bombs.
The thought behind this was the fact that Japanese structures were especially susceptible to fire, due to the widespread, traditional use of paper, bamboo, and other highly-flammable materials. It was thought that the bats would spread out and roost in buildings throughout the target city. At a specified time, built-in timers would ignite the bombs, thus creating panic and destruction in the intended Japanese locale.
Tests on the project proved to be successful enough, although not entirely: In one incident, armed bats were accidentally released over an air base in New Mexico, incinerating the test range, and setting fire to a general’s car.
After 30 demonstrations, and over $2 million dollars spent, the project (titled Project X-Ray), was eventually cancelled, as it was realized that it would not be combat-ready until 1945.
One of these things is not like the others
One of these things is not quite the same
It’s the first one. It’s a photograph.
the second one doesn’t have text
ARE YOU BLIND, IT’S THE LAST ONE
CAN’T YOU SEE IT’S BLACK AND WHITE
Never not reblogging Brushie Brushie Batman.
