Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Especially when they've slaughtered so many underlings to get there. Like I have no issue with people killing other people. Finn gets clowned on because people shriek "HE WAS A STORMTROOPER AND GOT UNPLUGGED AND NOW HES JUST KILLING THEM WHAT THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE". I mean... they're shooting at him. Literally kill or be killed. That's war and that's what happens when you're fighting for EVERYONE. Unfortunately people will die.

But that shit?! Fuck off. You don't get to spend however long wading through a river of blood only to suddenly stop because you have no issue with your pants being soaked but your shirt being stained is too much. Fuck all the way off.

I mean usually these stories are pretty contrived. They're set up in a way where anyone who dies along the way is kill or be killed, but the final villain conveniently gets a chance to cry for mercy.

I think that's mainly done to show the bad guy is actually a coward.

Something something too pathetic to kill blah blah

Does this mean that Inigo is a better person that Westley is?

Westley's a good guy, but Inigo is a good guy and the ultimate wingman. Bonus points.

Depends on your view on revenge in general
