But the fact that all the Brontes basically grew up drinking corpse water explains SO FUCKING MUCH.

This message brought to you by a really fucking tired Kyle who has a three week gig teaching gig for a 10th grade lit class and I'm 4 days in and I want to die I'm going to throw myself out the window

ima disrupt the lesson plans and talk about how Wuthering Heights is the way it is because Emily Bronte was drinking corpse water.

Kyle, the English were just like that, drinking their dirty corpse water. Would you truly talk of the disenfranchised like that?

I mean I'm just saying it explains a lot about their writing. I'd probably write a lot of boring depressing shit if I was drinking corpsetea too.

... actually okay, the corpse bits are steeping in the water, but it's not leaves, so is it tea? Is it more like corpse coffee? Corpse... kool-aid?

I don’t know if there’s actually a cause and effect there, but maybe?

Why does this make me think of LaCroix? Flavor of overfilled graveyard, with a hint of dysentery?

That's it, that's what they had. LaCroirpse

It's only a corpse if it's from the Cor P'Se region.

Otherwise it's just sparkling dead body.

I don't get it
