ayrt

That sounded really familiar but I couldn't quite place it until I looked it up on Ao3 and was like "Yep, I've definitely scrolled past this before". I mean, "Twist and Shout is the story of the love transcending time, returning over and over in its many forms, as faithful as the sea"? Come the fuck on. No

as faithful as the sea

Can somebody please explain to me what this means, because the sea changes every fucking day, and all I can think is that it's referring to the tides going in and out all the time, but then you're just saying that your partner leaves you all the time but always comes back, and that just doesn't really seem like a ringing endorsement for said relationship, y'know?

I don't understand this simile.

I think it's b/c it's always there. It never truly goes away--it's not the sea can pack up it's bags and move to a new location when it gets bored. The tides may go in an out, but in the end it always there and/or coming back to you (think of someone who travels a lot for their job).

...But you could say that about a lot of things. Dirt, for example! I mean, hell, dirt will be around long after the water's gone. Or is that not purply and obtuse enough for these people? Why not say "As faithful as dirt!" "As permanent as a glitter spill!" "As secure as epoxy!" "As long-lasting as an LED bulb!"

I could go on, but I work at a hardware store, so I think these will just get more and more obscure...

The sea's pretty and poetic and blue and dirt isn't. It's just there. It's also walked on and, well, common, while a lot of people never see the sea in person unless they travel to go see it. That's why the expression "as common as dirt", which is also brown, and well, not all that pretty in itself.

DA

People only think dirt is boring because they don't know enough about dirt. :/ It is an endless line of sad in my life.

/geology major

it's always there.

They don't have tidelands where you live? Come see the North Sea some time.

...and it was so profound they named it after a Little Richard song? Bitch, please!

Twist and Shout isn't a Little Richard song. I think most people would consider it an Isley Brothers song (although they weren't the first to record it) and the Beatles version is also very famous.
