Words cannot express how much it bothers me that of all Becky’s excuses to leave a situation so she can go fight crime, “I have to go to the bathroom” is never one of them. I can’t recall a single time she’s used that excuse which is kinda silly because it’s a great excuse. Its believable, normal, expected and can be re used over and over without question. As long as she doesn’t use it too much in one day she’d be fine

So instead of not enjoying myself at my family’s New Years party, I decided to watch the New Years WordGirl Episode
And I have some thoughts I would like to share…
(Good thoughts, let me clarify)

First off, these poor boys, they just want to have a party and to do so they had to gather the few party supplies from other holidays they had. I see Christmas lights, a 4th of July hat, a St. Patrick’s Day hat, a Halloween noise maker thing, can’t remember the name of it. ….. and WordGirl and Captain HuggyFace tablecloth?? Why do they have that?? And when Two Brains comes in he doesn’t even acknowledge it so does that mean they just have that?

He may have a mouse brain, but he has the mouth of a chipmunk…

…and octopus fingers
More under the cut…

“TJ the DJ” okay, yes, I like it, I like it a lot, but have you considered “DJ TJ”?
Also, I like to brainstorm what the kiddos in this show would do for a living when they are adults, I’ve had trouble thinking of one for TJ, but maybe a DJ!

Becky is the cutest little dancer. Haha, this would be a good “someone who has never seen WordGirl, please explain this image”
Also regarding Bob…



Is…is he stoned?? What is in that guacamole??

That look of sheer terror XD

Becky did that. And all I wanna ask her is did she think she was in a battle or something? She did that with a pinata! Also, the family just shrugs it off, and I don’t mean in a “how did Becky do that?” kinda way, but in an “oh, crap! there’s a hole in the wall!!” they basically just go, “Well I guess we have a hole in the wall now! Next game!”

Is that a WordGirl cup Bob has? It’s kinda hard to tell in this picture, and it’s not surprising in this family but I think that’s a cute little detail

Real talk though, where does one store a guacamole bowl that large?

They are so cute!

I just…can’t get over Bob


Mrs. Botsford may have had a few drinks

So, you’re gonna contact Lexicon?

Bob, I assure you, you have already accomplished that resolution

I wanted this shot so I could comment on the quote, and I ended up laughing at her eyes for a minute straight.
Regarding the qutoe, Becky, I don’t think you have a lot of control of how much you have to be running around when you’re a super hero…actually if she really wanted to she could probably significantly cut down on the witty banter in battles…

Such a cute family.

Awww! We need more moments like this!!

Who’s idea was it to put The Energy Monster in the ball, because that’s a really good idea

AW! And who’s idea was it to have a villain New Year’s Eve party? Because that’s adorable!

oh, apparently it wasn’t his idea…or rather he had the same idea…

Again, they’re just so cute!

Everyone is just so damn cute!!!!!

“Hey, you know what we should do, we should put a picture of Dr. Two Brains, from when he was Steven, and have him standing next to some random, unnamed lady!”
“Are you crazy! That will drive the fans crazy! Let’s do it!”

Maybe Two Brains is the one who’s stoned…

See! Even The Narrator thinks you’ve already achieved your resolution Bob!


Poor Huggy…


This is one of those, “I don’t know why it’s funny but it’s sssooooo funny” kind of things. I love how he just casually looks up with a face like “what am I doing with my life?”


I love how he waits for Huggy to get himself together, he doesn’t even give it a second thought. He may be a criminal but he knows he’s gotta play fair

When you tell your mom you’re doing your homework but you’re actually in your room like

Ignore the quote, I just forgot to turn that off. I need to rant about this real quick. So I understand why Tim is there this early, I understand why Sally tagged along, but no explanation was given as to why TJ came too. I mean I think he’s too young to be left home alone, but what about Becky? Hadn’t she already had a day where she technically babysat TJ? I’m pretty sure that was before this episode, correct me if I’m wrong, please. And yeah, I know Becky isn’t there, but they shouldn’t know that. So there was no reason for them to take TJ if they thought Becky was home. So let’s say he wanted to come for one reason or another, okay, now the whole family is going and leaving Becky and Bob behind and this family doesn’t do things like that. One of them would have asked Becky if she wanted to come, or told her where they were going so she didn’t wake up and go “where is everyone?” Or at the very least, wouldn’t they have maybe gone into her room to check on her before leaving her alone in the house asleep? This just doesn’t make sense to me and I like to believe that one of the other Botsfords knows Becky and Bob are WordGirl and Huggy and are covering for her from the rest of the family. “We should go ask Becky if she wants to come!” “I’ll do it!” “No she doesn’t want to come” “Are you sure? Let me ask her–” “NO! Really she said she’s tired and doesn’t want to come!!!!”

I kid you not this is something I actually say in real life

Another good “someone who’s never seen WordGirl, please explain this” and the quote in there somehow makes it better


What in the name of cheese is she doing?
Hope you enjoyed my silliness and my brief moment of Botsford family conspiracy theorizing!
Edit: I finally got this posted! I think the difference was that I did it through my laptop this time instead of my phone (I swear I already tried that, but my computer wouldn’t connect to the internet)

In my family we have a habit of giving each other endearing nick names, ya know things like sweetie and buddy and stuff like that. So naturally i love it when characters do that, so I must ask:
Do you all think Bob has any sweet nick names for Becky?

Another Wordgirl crack theory/ headcanon
There’s one episode where Mrs. Botsford talks about a tradition in her own family and calls it a “Botsford” tradition. (In “Say it again Eileen” when she’s sharing a recipe with Becky) so my headcanon is that Mrs. Botsford’s maiden name is also Botsford, just maybe with a spelling discrepancy like two Ts or something like that. Based on something that actually happened in my family, where the bride’s last name was something like Andersen and the groom’s last name was Anderson.

This is just a crack theory that’s not meant to be taken too seriously, it’s just for fun:
What if Huggy isn’t speaking monkey, and instead is actually speaking the Lexicon native language. Wordgirl understands what he’s saying not because she speaks monkey, but because she speaks the language from her home planet. It just happens to sound like monkey talk on Earth.
