I thought he was too and was pissed at him because the author came to my school in 3rd grade and said he was Lemony's assistant and Lemony couldn't make it. So I thought Lemony thought he was too good for us.

I had a similar situation with Michael Meyers from Halloween. Thought it was a documentary and we were all just chill about this guy being on the loose. 😭

My cousin and I were obsessed with the lore and her older sister would secretly leave us letters “from the Baudelaire children” to feed our fixation. It was really sweet of her

LMAO. this is also how i found out that santa wasn't real
