15 Times The 'Sherlock' Fandom Won Tumblr

These Tumblr posts perfectly capture the craziness that is the BBC Sherlock fandom.

15 Times The 'Sherlock' Fandom Won Tumblr

If there's one thing to know about the Sherlock fandom, it is that we are crazy. And obsessive. And remarkably patient. We wait years for new seasons (which only contain three episodes each) and are relentlessly taunted by Sherlock creators Steven Moffat and Mark Gatiss. But, despite our craziness, the people of Tumblr accept us for who we are. In fact, they do more than that—they encourage us. So today, I count down fifteen times the Sherlock fandom totally won Tumblr. Enjoy!


1. There's a reason he wanted to be a pirate.

What better way to begin our list than with a POTC/Sherlock crossover post? Given the dark nature of the final episode of series four, this is a teeny bit heartbreaking, but still awesome.


2. Six new episodes...

Don't worry. We're all crying, too.

3. The Sherlock Fandom. A.K.A. the Eternally Waiting Fandom.

This one is so true it hurts.

4. Laughing at our pain.

Well... they weren't wrong.

5. Free samples.

Ditto, Euros... I mean Faith. I mean John's therapist. I mean the woman on the bus. Wait.

6. No, no. It's Minecraft.

The best part of this post is the end: the powerhouse of Great Britain.

7. Murder!

This is probably pretty accurate.

8. WE NEED SERIES FIVE.

The people of Tumblr have spoken!

9. Red carpet or drug addict.

Accurate.

10. What life?

This was all of us with series four.

11. Prolonged exposure.

Yep, this pretty much sums the fandom up. Thanks, Tumblr. Spot on.

12. MY FANDOM NEEDS ME.

This one is just straight-up hilarious. (And entirely true. We do need you, Sherlock.)

13. #Not My Division

Fandom! Tone it down. We can't let everyone else know we're this crazy.

14. It's just gravity.


Brilliant. This person couldn't even see the picture and yet they knew it was Sherlock. Fandom, you continue to serve us well.

15. Anderson, don't talk out loud, you lower the IQ of the whole street.


And lastly, for your viewing pleasure, I present you with this sadly accurate post about Anderson. Sorry, buddy. (Not really.)

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
