The Evidence:

Original post by fledgling-witch on Tumblr

• The Magic School Bus can time travel
• When asked, Ms. Frizzle denies that she “knows everything”
• However, Ms. Frizzle always knows what her students are up to, knows the answer to every question they ask her, and never shows fear even when in extreme mortal peril, as if she’s experienced this all before
• Although we know she was in a rock band called the Frizzlettes and was a Shakespearean actress, Ms. Frizzle’s childhood remains mysterious
• Ms. Frizzle is EXACTLY the sort of person to travel back in time to teach herself, and is in fact the most likely fictional character to do so
• Nobody is ever named “Valerie Frizzle” at birth
• Ms. Frizzle dresses queerly and laughs at her own bad jokes
• A lot of the series is about Arnold learning to take chances, make mistakes, and get messy - that phrase is more or less targeted at him as a student
• Ms. Frizzle looks a lot like a grown-up Arnold

She literally has a giant storeroom full of barrels of pickles because she loves pickles so much what more evidence do you need

(Screenshot of said pickle storeroom, with Ms. Frizzle stating, “You caught me, Ralphie. I have a private and powerful passion for pickles!”)

#exactly #a private and powerful passion for pickles! #folk on spiro climb nearly 90 degree inclines to lick the salt off pickles #they crave that mineral
