The Queen has requested that everybody with a knighthood attend a meeting at Windsor Castle. Speaking to the sizeable crowd of ageing actors and retired musicians, she explains why – The dragons are back, and she expects that every knight will do his duty.

Everyone turns and looks at Ian McKellen.

“Oh Christ,” he says. “If only Christopher Lee were still here. Then we might have a chance.”

“Oh, for fuck’s sake. Stand aside, you lot!”

The crowd of knights parts, revealing Dames Maggie Smith, Judy Dench and Helen Mirren, all of whom are dressed in leather and ready to fuck shit up.

“Honestly, Ian,” Maggie Smith mutters. “Really.” 

As the Dames stride past a suitably chastened Ian McKellen, Michael Gambon produces a folding chair, a hip flask and an immensely pleased expression.

“Told you,” he says, taking a seat. “Did anyone bring any biscuits?”

Science side of Tumblr: how can dragons breathe fire?

There are three variants of dragons.
One of them possesses  a gland that produces a liquid, which spontaneously combusts when coming into contact with oxygen. Some phosphorus compounds could do that for example.

The second one possesses two glands instead, which produce so-called hypergolic propellants, fluids that ignite when they come into contact with one another.

The third kind stores the methane bacteria in their stomach produce, and expells it when breathing fire. In their mouth there’s a piezoelectric crystal, which is a substance that produces a spark when placed under mechanical stress and could thus serve to ignite the methane gas.

Or it’s magic.

know the difference

Dragon Resting Its Head On The Lap Of A Woman – R. Leinweber (1912)
