Dec. 7th, 2009 06:02 amYesterday, I picked out a worksheet in one of my Psychology textbooks, which asked me to pick out a newspaper comic and write about the cultural references. I looked through one of our The Far Side Gallery books, and came across quite a few that had cultural references. I showed Mom, and picked out one where the Three Blind Mice hide from the Farmer's Wife, and one of them says she must've really flipped out this time.
Another notable one has pairs of each animal running towards a space shuttle, just like Noah's Ark sheltered two of each animal. This reminded Mom and Dad of one of the standout pages in The Far Side Mix-Up (which I wrote about more than a year ago), called "Noah's Ark sinks". It was basically a big circle with lots of smaller circles inside, to represent the water and drowning bubbles.
Anyway, I showed Jake the Three Blind Mice comic, and he told me that his culture has its own set of nursery rhymes. He thought up a similar joke based on a song called Boi de Cara Preta/Branca (Black-/White-Faced Ox), and I used it to complete the worksheet.

Now that I actually had something other than Hikari Tsurugino's hair to bring up with Jake, I then proceeded to ask him for his opinion on the length of said girl's hair (which he said he doesn't know).
With that said, I asked him if he could think up some kind of expansion to Mai's and Hikari's hair each becoming a large, bulbous lump sitting on their heads. He suggested that they be defeated by a monster, who then curses them to have their hair like that instead of simply killing them.
After the convo ended, I continued to think about it, and thought up even more stuff, though a lot of it would need to be confirmed. Seeing as Jake was no longer on MSN, I sent him an email last night. Before I forget, I should mention that after emailing him, yet another idea came to mind, which would involve the two girls being hung by their hair in front of an audience after they're cursed, possibly naked with their wrists and ankles tied up. Their cousin Saya (who is spared the treatment, since her's is too short) would then save them by shooting whatever is suspending them in midair and helping them flee.
Not too long ago, Jake wanted me to help him come up with something where Sailor Moon's hair would similarly become large and bulbous like that. It took me a short while, but my suggestion was that some kind of monster egg would require incubation from someone with really long hair, and her hair would wrap around the egg to become like that. Until it hatched, it would also mind-control her into doing things like running around naked and shaking her butt.
Beehive hairdos aside, but still speaking of fetish-driven fanfiction. A year ago, I was spending my sleeping hours thinking about the Sonic the Hedgehog girls (Amy, Cream, Rouge, and Tiara having their noses enlarge like balloons. Jake helped me come up with something for Rouge, and it was quite gratifying, but it never became an actual fanfic. I have the convos saved somewhere, though, in case I decide to write it in the future.

Yesterday, Mom drove me to the library to work on another worksheet, which would deal with self-help books. When we got there, Mom discovered an oil leak underneath the hood of our van. Needless to say, that means that we're gonna need to get the van repaired too, on the same day that we're getting the car back. Because of this, Mom will be staying home from work today.
