I know it’s time for me to go to sleep when I am laughing uncontrollably at “that is roo”. Idk something about how its phrased is just cracking me up

The use of "that is" instead of "that's" feels like the written equivalent of saying it with a completely straight face

That's exactly it. It's kinda funny to think about how online communication has evolved its own forms of tone/sarcasm.

I feel like Roo would be down to be used as a morningstar

I read that part before I saw Kanga. I was 100% expecting Roo to be using the morningstar.

So did they call hunny "miel" back in the day?

u/ChonkeyDoug 16h ago
Miel is honey in French. I guess he could’ve leaned into the Pooh of it and called it myelle?

Roo seems like the kind of kid who would unironically love being used as a flail. He’d like try to do kicks and tail thwaps and stuff.
Kanga would normally never want Roo to get tangled up in something like this but I can absolutely imagine a scenario where they can’t run away and he’s got that burning desire to protect the Hundred Acre Wood dancing like a flame in his little beady eyes and Kanga ends up relenting and they proceed to kick all of the ass there is to kick together and fuck now I wanna see a Winnie the Pooh movie where they actually have to fight a tangible threat instead of it being purely imagined (a la the Skullosaurus or the Gabloon) or a big misunderstanding with a peaceful faction (like the Heffalumps) which I know would be really difficult to do while maintaining the idyllic optimistic “the world is cool and you don’t need to be so afraid of it all the time” message all of these things share but also like aaaaaaaaa

Detail I missed at first: Pooh is going after a group of warriors holding a large pot of MIEL - hunny.

I love that of the two who weren’t toys so don’t have “proper” names, Owl keeps the WOL spelling he uses, and Rabbit becomes Rabbit in French
