Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present Dominic Monaghan and elijah wood drunk as monkeys “singing”.
“Half Fling” from Viggo Mortensen’s album Pandemoniumfromamerica
This never ever fails to crack me up. They recorded this while they were working on the LotR films, so it’s getting pretty old, but I’m still amused every time. :B

ANIMORPHS (BOOKS) MASTERPOST (click through picture for download)
Animorphs is a science-fiction book series that were very popular and written in the 90’s. It follows the stories of five humans – Jake, Marco, Cassie, Rachel, and Tobias – and an alien by the name of Aximili-Esgarrouth-Isthill who obtain the ability to morph into any animal they touch. Naming themselves “The Animorphs” (animal-morphers), they find themselves in the middle of a war for humanity against a secret alien infiltration. First person books, with the Animorphs taking turns narrating the story. Horror, war, dehumanization, sanity, morality, innocence, leadership, and growing up are core motifs of the series.
These books are set in the nineties and have a bunch of references to such times that make it hilarious at points when you’re rereading them. Beyond them and the covers’ expert use of photoshop though, you’ll find real horror and war stories from people that are still even trying to just get through school and act like normal kids.

The angel Gabriel said unto his fallen brother, Lucifer “Though thou art my brother and I love you well, thou art nothing but a sack of loins”
And the fallen angel Lucifer was much enraged.
Chuck 5:19

Yeah, the union of John and Mary Winchester - very big deal upstairs, top priority arrangement. It wasn’t easy, either. Oh, they couldn’t stand each other at first. But when we were done with them - perfect couple. […] The orders were very clear. You and Sam needed to be born. Your parents were just, uh… meant to be. A match made in heaven, heaven♫

In medieval culture, an event like a royal christening is not a private party; it’s the public social event of the year. To not invite any person of rank to such an event is a deadly insult.
Maleficent is certainly someone you wouldn’t want at a party, but she’s also someone powerful enough that only a fool would ever dare treat her with such blatant disrespect. The only way the King and Queen could possibly have gotten away with not inviting Maleficent was to not invite any of the fairies at all; inviting the other fairies and excluding her is explicitly taking sides in the conflict between the fairy factions.
Which means they made themselves her sworn enemies, and she responded by treating them as such from then on. If you actually get into analyzing the social dynamics of the scene, it’s very clear that Maleficent was willing to show mercy at first by giving the King and Queen a chance to apologize for their disrespect to her. She doesn’t curse Aurora until after she gives them that chance and they throw it back in her face with further disrespect.
And yeah, if the King and Queen had done the properly respectful thing and invited her, Maleficent would have given Aurora a scary awesome present. Moreover so would the other fairies, because at that point both sides would be using it as an opportunity to show off and one-up each other. What they gave her before Maleficent showed up was basically just trivial party favors by fairy standards.
How do you know so much about the social dynamics of medieval fairies
Now I’m just picturing Aurora AU: Beautiful, with an armored unicorn she rides into battle with an army of loyal goblins courtesy of Aunty Maleficent.
She kicks Philip’s ass when she’s 12 and he’s 16 with her magic kung-fu broomstick. He’s smitten from that point on.
