Mac With Or Without A Beard?

i can't believe its been 3 months since johnnygate

this scene… i had to rotoscope it

this means something i'm sure

Thinking about the way Mac misremembers Dennis leaving. In his own mind, he wishes he left with Dennis, but in reality he didn't. He let Dennis walk away and out of his life. He didn't chase after Dennis, but he wishes he did.

A theory for why Dennis acts different towards Mac after returning from North Dakota is that Dennis is resentful towards Mac for this very reason. Mac let him walk away. He had always thought Mac would be there by his side, to catch him when he faltered, but Mac had failed him. Dennis was waiting for someone to chase him, and it should have been Mac, but Mac didn't. Mac didn't even bat an eye. Mac let Dennis slip away, and this is something he will never forget.

When Dennis was away, he never checked in with Mac. We know he gave Mac a fake number, so Mac couldn't contact him, but Dennis has Mac's number memorized. He could've called Mac, but he never did. Maybe he was avoiding Mac. Maybe he didn't want to show that he cared for Mac when, in his mind, Mac didn't care about him.

I wonder if Mac is aware of this. I wonder if this is why Mac wishes he had chased after Dennis. I wonder if Mac remembers that night this way because it's what he so badly wishes had happened. He wishes he had followed Dennis, but he didn't.

Maybe he thinks Dennis would love him if he had.

i watch it's always sunny 4 the plot

Shouldve put a couple "no homo"s in here like I'm not convinced

ok gay

thinking about season 5 and rcg writing macdennis romantic on purpose and saying on the commentary for break up that they’re gay they’re clearly gay they’re closeted homosexuals and dennis getting hate crimed at his frat and then at the very start of the next season his immediate reaction to mac saying gay marriage is wrong is that he should be married and looking at mac when he says I don’t love you maureen I never loved you and glenn on set for that exact scene in the kitchen jokingly going to kiss rob because the subtext of the scene they’re filming is that dennis loves mac more than he could ever love a woman and it’s always been on PURPOSE and ouuuyggghhhhhhhhj I’m unzipped
