Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
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.
Sister Communities:

You see someone post a drawing, and it's really not good.
"That's certainly one of the drawings of all time"
The expectation for the phrase would be "that's one of the best drawings of all time" or "one of the worse drawings of all time" but removing the adjective to break the sentence creates this ironic feeling of stating something is underwhelming without directly saying so.
