I remember when I was reading that story as a kid, Sherlock goes on and on about The Woman, the only one who ever beat him, and you’re thinking, he’s had better villains than this. And then you click: he fancies her, doesn’t he? That’s what it’s about.

i am opening the door.  i am stepping outside of my house.  i am walking to the airport.  i am getting on a plane.  i am flying to steven moffat’s house.  i am sneaking inside very quietly.  i am pooping in every pair of his shoes.

because it’s not like irene adler had a genuine victory or anything. it’s not like she outsmarted sherlock holmes. it’s not like she disguised herself so well that she could literally follow him and hear all of his plans and then topped it off with actually saying ‘goodnight, mr. holmes’ to his face. it’s not like he didn’t even figure it out until he got to her house the next day and found a note explaining all of it.

nah, man, he just thought she was hot.

reasons to not have a two-year hiatus for your tv show: fans will have a lot of time to realize the problematic things about the show and will be disillusioned when it finally airs again

can anyone help me with an assignment?

i have to write a speech on a theme in sherlock (and how it is shown)

but i cannot think of a major theme

if it helps my teacher has not seen sherlock so I can probably make stuff up a bit

theemptyholmes:

[throws glitter] Sherlock is an asshole to everyone and he treats Molly a lot better than he treats John most of the time so stop being fucking titheads

raymukada:

i can’t believe moffat said john and sherlock wouldn’t work romantically because “they’re not wired that way" and then wrote an episode where a lesbian falls in love with a man

your irene wasn’t wired in that way but you still made her fall in love with a man didn’t you you vile sexist homophobic piece of absolute shit

I identify with this post on a spiritual level. 

Fan (to Mark Gatiss): Will we see Mycroft mourn?
Mark Gatiss: Yes, there’s a scene where I go to the grave and laugh hysterically.
