han canonically won the millenium falcon off lando in a dance off in cloud city, the dance off in star wars kinect actually takes place before any of the original trilogy and shows han winning the falcon for the first time with a song he wrote about himself
It’s called copula deletion, or zero copula. Many languages and dialects, including Ancient Greek and Russian, delete the copula (the verb to be) when the context is obvious.
So an utterance like “you a bitch” in AAVE is not an example of a misused you, but an example of a sentence that deletes the copular verb (are), which is a perfectly valid thing to do in that dialect, just as deleting an /r/ after a vowel is a perfectly valid thing to do in an upper-class British dialect.
What’s more, it’s been shown that copula deletion occurs in AAVE exactly in those contexts where copula contraction occurs in so-called “Standard American English.” That is, the basic sentence “You are great” can become “You’re great” in SAE and “You great” in AAVE, but “I know who you are” cannot become “I know who you’re” in SAE, and according to reports, neither can you get “I know who you” in AAVE.
In other words, AAVE is a set of grammatical rules just as complex and systematic as SAE, and the widespread belief that it is not is nothing more than yet another manifestation of deeply internalized racism.
karkat watches his entire life and then waits for the perfect moment to profess his “hate” to him
canon has stated that kismisitude and matespriteship are constantly flipflopping between each other, which is very similar to human romance because hate and love are both passionate emotions
karkat has stated in canon that his problem with relationships is that he wants someone in all his quadrants, meaning that he experiences human love and not troll love,
this means that everyone he has wanted in his black quadrant he has also wanted in his red quadrant,
karkat himself said he didnt think he was capable of actual kismesissitude at all,
karkat told john that he never really hated him after all, he was confused,
but if you watch the flash you can tell that the passion there was very very real,
