Keep Calm and.... What?


It's INSANE the amount of these signs I've been seeing around lately. My friend had one on Facebook that said Keep calm and Love One Direction ( who doesn't these days?), I found one that said Keep Calm and Fake a British Accent. They're literally EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!

Where did this insane saying come from, you ask? Well, it was first used as propoganda by England during WWII. It was used to keep citzens calm and collected. In 2000, someone discovered a copy of one in a bookstore in Northumberland (in NE England). It was quickly printed on everything from welcome mats to mugs, and have been very popluar since 2012 started.

This new found "trend"  is spriraling upward, so I thought I'd share some of my favorite Keep Calm and... quotes. Here are a few of my faves.

Who doesn't LOVE a good cupcake?

This is something only a true Gleek could say.


I love this one. it's so silly and hilarious *whips hair back and forth*


The Hunger Games is literally the BEST movie I have ever seen.... and I've seen a lot. This is a term that Effie trinket, a bizzare being from The Capitol, uses many times in the book and movie.


This one is probably my favorite one of all. It has an upside down crown and would cause quite a stir if used during the War.
*DISCLAIMER*
You can search for "Keep Calm and " on Google and literally find every saying out there. These are just a couple I wanted to highlight. I don't own any of these pictures.
