    I forget who did it but someone wrote that phrase in their book. Theres a LOT of books that try to be “fancy” with their writing and use old or non standard English to do so.

      Tumblr user scottbaiowulf wrote this phrase as a parody of over-sexualization of female characters in literature.

      “Cassandra woke up to the rays of the sun streaming through the slats on her blinds, cascading over her naked chest. She stretched, her breasts lifting with her arms as she greeted the sun. She rolled out of bed and put on a shirt, her nipples prominently showing through the thin fabric. She breasted boobily to the stairs, and titted downwards.”

        For some reason, I had never seen the last 3 words from that quote. I just did a spit take and now coffee is up my nose.
