when i was little and my parents were driving id pretend there was a man/being/thing running alongside the car who had to follow certain rules like “he can only travel by jumping from streetlight to streetlight” or “he can only walk on fences”

i was so surprised to find out that other people did similar things

i wonder what the underlying psychology behind it is

like its a really specific thing to do but almost everyone did it without telling other kids about it because we all thought it was probably weird or unimportant

I never did this and wow I can’t even tell you how creepy this is to me.

I thought I was the only one.

Yeah a huge portion of people have this imaginary traveler or car-chaser.

To this day, even when I’M driving, a part of my mind imagines something is hopping and running alongside the car, dodging or simply chopping through every street sign and telephone pole.

Sometimes I find myself twitching the muscles in my hand or foot with every “jump,” like I’m controlling the being in a video game.

I did almost the same thing too. except it was with the car and not some being next to it.

my heart actually skipped a beat when i saw this because it literally never has crossed my mind that other people did this too. whoa…

ME TOO! But it wasn’t some creepy dude. The only way it made sense to me was that it was some super athletic Kim Possible type girl, otherwise how would she jump over all that shit? She was a badass.

I always thought it was just me! I imagined (and occasionally still do) a super-fast gymnast!

“Dad: Doctor Who has only like two sets. Whenever I see you watching they are always running around a big cardboard machine thing.
Me: You mean the TARDIS?!
Dad: But that’s the police box thing
Me and Mom: Its bigger on the inside!”

- That time my dad apparently thought that they really did go flying around crammed into a police box, and that everywhere they landed looked like the console room

Hey, nice name! :D

Sotto Voce: The Silence:

consultingmadhatterwithabox:

How do the Silents/Silence play into all of this? They are both a race and a religious order, both with the mission of preventing the moment on the Fields of Trenzalore when the Doctor would be asked to reveal his name, ie. the events of The Name of the Doctor. So where were they? For a moment…

So you all realise him saying please after the GI asked ‘Doctor who?’ was him saying please to River, because he knew she was there.

Please. Say it so I don’t have to.

And there I was thinking his name was fucking “please”

To quote the SFX review: why does this crack in the TARDIS window seem so ominous?

itgoesdingwhentheresstuff:

Ok Doctor Who peeps! Can you all help me with something? How does this episode fit with the whole “Silence will fall when the question is asked” plot line? And what made the TARDIS explode at the end of season 5? Sometimes I think I need annotations for this show!…

So, here’s what I’ve been able to process so far: When the Doctor says his name at Trenzalore, the tomb opens and the Great Intelligence gets access to his timeline, thereby reversing all the times he stopped people (ie the Dalek emperor) destroying the universe. Silence must fall in order to save the universe. This does explain the whole plot to have River kill the Doctor - anything to keep him from getting to Trenzalore. The Silence are good: interesting.

BUT: How would his body have gotten to Trenzalore if he had really died and been burned at Lake Silencio? We know that was a fake death - but wouldn’t this have caused wibbly-wobbly problems for the Silence’s plan?

Also, I am interested in this theory that the prophecy referred to the Doctor’s other trip to Trenzalore - it makes more sense that they’d kill him early to prevent him dying there…but hasn’t the Question now been asked? Ahhhh….my head just went timey wimey.

The cracks in time in season 5 were caused by the TARDIS exploding, which we have been lead to believe was also caused by the Silence. I’m of the opinion - and the TARDIS wiki agrees - that we still don’t really have an explanation for this.

But hey - Moffat just gave us closure on River’s data ghost, something that has been bothering me since 2008, way before we knew that she’d be a recurring character. Not to mention that he is showing every sign of bringing back the Valeyard idea from classic Who. So I’ll try to keep faith :)

And on that note - bed?

In Forest of the Dead, the 10th Doctor tells River “there’s only one way I could tell you, only one time I could.” We’ve all been assuming it was during some important life event - death, marriage, (sex) - but what if he meant that only the Doctor-that-isn’t-the-Doctor/John Hurt could say his own name? Wouldn’t that also explains why River tells him she’s sorry when she whispers his name?
