@thehungryhungryreader
who was that one artist who drew like what felt like every school decoration ever
and why did they draw the same face face on everything
like this
I HAVE BEEN WONDERING THIS MY WHOLE LIFE
I always thought their faces must open like reverse drawbridges.
Undeath of the Author...
Wherein the author's intent is both highly emphasized and wildly inaccurate, moving the author's metaphorical corpse with a mocking semblance of life.
Seen often when the wild-ass fan theory is taken as intentional subtext.
Example: The Wizard of Oz is a political allegory encouraging the adoption of a dual-metal currency standard.
The thing is. I would eat the grapes. I would eat the pomegranate seeds. I would eat the Turkish delights. It doesnât matter what the stakes are if you put a little plate of snacks out in front of me Iâll eat them.
If you sent me to an evil fantasy realm and told me that if I ate anything I would die a painful terrible death then set a charcuterie board down in front of me that would be it for me. Like it wouldnât even be like a torturous internal struggle to not eat the cheese. I wouldnât even need to be that hungry.
Iâm with you, screw Aslan and his Old Magic bullshit, that kid was approached by what he thought was the ligimate sovereign of the land he was in, and took food because thatâs what polite pople do, particularly frightened, confused children.
No time to actually worship that concept until it makes sense! Gotta get to weapons dealing Santa Claus scene, right Treebeard?
The issue was that she was clearly acting suspicious and instead of trying to avoid her, he went back for more.
Yeah, an impulsive child from a period of war rationing fell for an adultâs trick. Itâs bad enough to victim blame in this case, but C.S. Lewis so wants this to be the 30 pieces of silver for his Jesus Fursona and it just does not work (just like arms dealer father Christmas and the Liar, Lunatic, or Lord argument.)
For the story to work, Edmund has to be a traitor. But he isnât, and moreover, it is impossible for him to be one.
First, heâs ten.
Second, heâs being coerced and manipulated. The White Witch got to him first., and told him she was the rightful ruler, and she had the accutamonts to back that up. To his knowledge, even if heâs suspicious, his family has fallen in with rebels and keeping the witch happy is the only way he can have the pull to save them. Telling the White Queen about Aslanâs return canât then be a betrayal of them, even if he was old enough that he could be ethically responsible for a betrayal, which again, he is not.
Third: If he didnât betray his family, it must be Aslan he betrayed, right? Well, problem. Edmund canât betray Aslan. He doesnât know Alsan. He has no obligations to him. None of them do. Heâs a freign king, one who has, I will point out, abandoned his post and charges until very recently.Â
And at at least Edmund has the sense to question the one he landed with. The others get a bit of âChildren of Adamâ chosen-one ego stroking and sign up to be Aslanâs child soldiers based on the first thing theyâre told by the people they fall in with.Â
And while the âkid adventurers=child soldiersâ thing is usually a semi-ironic joke, Father Christmas pretty much says âHey kids, hereâs weapons cuz youâre soldiers now., so go stab some ho-ho-heratics!â before he hands them swords and bows.
Also, thereâs the lingering near-certainty that the entire set of events, including Edmundâs âbetrayalâ was engineered by Aslan, specifically so the Witch would activate his trap card and he could rid himself of the only other being with the kind of power that could threaten his absolute, magically enforced dictatorship and the rule of his groomed, foreign-born puppet royals.Â
TLDR: Mistakes are not moral failings, unlike this plot hole.
I just had an Idea for a New Muppet Show! Everyone, file into the Gymnasium with your Business Buddy-
So, this show is, Essentially, What Disney has been trying to do with the Muppets as of Late! This show is a compilation of Every Single Failed Pilot for a Muppet Show that COULD have happened, but never did because it did very Poorly with Focus Groups. Every show Pilot is an Obvious Rip off of some pre-Successful show that Executives Insist they Copy to a T for Immediate Success! (More Below!)
Keep reading
âŠreblogging because, holy shit, this is an amazing premise, I think @therobotmonster and @thehungryreader should see it.
This is brilliant. I would love to see a show where the Muppets try and fail to reproduce every terrible show from the last ten years.
I have more.
Failâs Kitchen: The Muppets try to rip off Gordon Ramsey with a kitchen challenge show, but due to a fundamental misunderstanding, they all take turns spewing vitriolic insults at the human chef whoâs the ostensible star. Piggy is the favorite to win, but surprisingly itâs Fozzie who taps into his long-repressed hostilities and drives the chef to tears.
The Mupping Dead: Zombie drama where the human stars turn into Muppets when they die. The first half (before anyone dies) has humans playing the roles of Kermit and Piggy and everyone, in character, so itâs kind of an excuse to give them official âhumanâ designs.
Intellectual Property Brothers: Kermit and Fozzie, once again in the role of identical twins, help inordinately wealthy young couples buy intellectual properties that no one wants. The third segment brings the awkward situation of trying to talk the final couple out of buying The Muppets.
Game of Toads: The Muppets try to do an oversexed fantasy series. They are filthy. They try to play out romantic scenes while crusted in dirt and dried mud and manure. This episode is played out with âretiredâ puppets, too old to otherwise use on camera anymore, who may even get more damaged on camera.
Drag Race: What @clown-manifestation wrote above, but they roll with it and becomes about dressing cars up in drag, putting them in dresses and eyeliner. These are not Muppet cars, theyâre actual vehicles. Gonzo has the prodigal ability to determine a carâs gender identity through a verbal interview, and he pronounces most of the cars already female, and the one pickup truck is entirely sexlessâ âitâs a truck, Kermit. Itâs not a he or a she.â
thinking about the fucked up lore for the tinman in the wizard of oz
So he was just a regular ass munchkin man named Nick Chopper in love with a woman, Nimee Amee, but she was the ward of some old lady. And the old lady got the Wicked Witch of the East to enchant the Tin Man's axe so that it kept cutting off bits of Nick Chopper to get him to fuck off since she didn't want Nimee to get married.
But he was like, fuck that, I love Nimee and went on using the cursed axe and replacing his missing parts with tin.
However when the axe chopped out his heart, he lost interest in Nimee and became completely made of tin.
After the events of the Wizard of Oz, the Tinman decides that he would like to see what happened to the woman he loved and so he looks for her. He then comes across ANOTHER Tinman rusted in the forest, Captain Fyter who also was in love with the same woman and lost of his body parts the same way, but with his sword being cursed. They both miss Nimee but agree to find her and let her choose who she wants to be with.
And along the way, some fucked up shit happened when Tinman and Captain Fyter find the tinsmith that made their replacement parts. Turns out he has a barrel full of discarded human body parts.
And another fucked up thing??? It was missing important parts like Captain Fyter's head and Tin Man's limbs.
The most fucked up thing though???? After the Witch of the East got killed by Dorothy, fuckin,,,, Nimee Amee is married to a man named Chopfyt, who's made up of the leftover human parts from Nick Chopper and Captain Fyter glued together.
And Nimee is like "fuck off I just want to be left alone" and everyone collectively shrugs and goes back to their homes, while Captain Fyter works for the government that's ruled by a trans God.
Also yes, sentient robots do exist, no the Tin Man isn't considered a sentient robot because he has a human soul. So.
the book is free to read so you too can be just as traumatised as I was when I read this when i was a kid
I feel the need to add that the sentient robotâs name is Tik-Tok, and heâs literally such an early example of a sentient robot in literature that the word robot literally hadnât even been invented yet when he debuted.
HAPPY SAND DAY
May 4th is the day we celebrate how much we all love sand!Â
Some of the great things about sand:
Its velvety smooth texture
Its natural refinement
Its soothing qualities
The ease of cleanup
Please do an episode on the Christmas special of He-Man where they talk about Jesusâ birth.
Thatâs a little outside the wheelhouse of the podcast, since we usually do comic strip specials, but we could have a special Special where we talk about other specials!
oh dang everybody itâs A NEW BOOK REVIEW!
The Hungry Reader and super excellent podcast-pal Mike are back with a holiday special of all things-- The Tale Of The Magical Crackers! A sumptuous feast for the eyes and also for the cracker-craving stomach. Eat crackers, everybody.Â
Eat them.
Eat your crackers
Cyber Monday Double Feature!Â
The Special Presentation vidcast is back, with one of the most highly anticipated episodes: Cartoon All-Stars To The Rescue!  Watch and listen as the 80s fizzle to a close right before your eyes in a world that had only just discovered The Simpsons.Â
But thatâs not all!
Itâs Riff Time! In todayâs podcast, The Hungry Reader talks about an early attempt at riffing this childhood classic with longtime friend Pullahoko. For this special occasion, weâve put together a best-of montage, which thoughtfully excises South Park references, R-words and anything else that was too 2009.Â
Scarecrow from Code Name: S.T.E.A.M.
This frustrates me so much. This is supposed to be the Scarecrow of Ozâ but thereâs already a pumpkin headed guy in Oz! Did they merge somehow??
Letâs not forget about Jack Pumpkinhead from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz anime, thank you.
Today is a special day because we have TWO Special Presentation vidcasts to share with you! First up weâve got Itâs An Adventure, Charlie Brown, featuring the story where Charlie Brown basically reinvents himself as a cool guy when he goes to college in a different state, âSackâ! Then Peppermint Patty has a religious experience, and Snoopy transforms into a helicopter... kind of a lot goes on in this one. This episode also features Mike and Ethanâs rumination on Transformers BotBots and the opportunity to meet their appliance-sonas!
But weâre not done yet-- Mike and Ethanâs Halloween Special is here, and itâs extra special because it contains a special! Itâs Garfieldâs Halloween Adventure, also known as Garfield In Disguise. In keeping with this hallowed day, this podcast contains live commentary on the special-- and since that wouldnât make any sense without the special itself, weâve included that too, with vintage commercials and all the trimmings! Then stay tuned for our tribute to our favorite and least-favorite Halloween specials, and the revelation that Paul Lynde was actually a cartoon goat.
A Special Presentation: or, ALF Will Not Be Seen Tonight can be heard in podcast form weekly, usually on Mondays, right here! Weâre on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and so many others, youâll surely have a way to listen on your commute! The vidcast version of each podcast goes up about a week or two later, so subscribe to ME, The Hungry Reader, to get them!
A Special Presentation; or, ALF Will Not Be Seen Tonight
fantasy author: the story ends with the magic going away forever. donât you find it sad and poetic? please give me a pulitzer or at least a hugo
me: this is very dumb. I hate you. bring back the wizards
Brandon Sanderson writing Elantris / The Stormlight Archive
What if I did a sci-fi story where at the end the science went away?
Gravity becomes arbitrary
The laws of averages freeze in place, so every coin always comes up tails
Fire and electricity come and go at random, seemingly at the will of inscrutable sky gods.
Cause and effect become decoupled, and so do stimulus and response, which means that even though things have changed, the change hasnât caused anyone to react.
In this chaotic world where nothing is certain, only a small number of people find that they have scientific powers, which is why they get invited to the mysterious School For Scientists known as the âMassachusetts Institute of Technologyâ
my sincerest wish for Cathy
16/30
The video version of Special Presentation or Alf Will Not Be Seen Tonight is here! This week weâre looking at the first Cathy special, cleverly titled Cathy! Is it true that one of the most maligned strips on the funny pages could be improved by making it queerer? Find out here!
