Caesars Assassination But With Empty Cardboard Tubes

*deletes angry paragraph*

I am SICK and TIRED of seeing so much hate towards Al! Al hasn't done ANYTHING to hurt ANYONE! Al is harmless!

But I can already hear the Al haters out there!

"Al isn't original!" No shit, Sherlock! That's what we love the most about Al.

"People aren't supposed to look like that!" That sounds like a problem between you and God, and frankly, plenty of people like the way Al looks.

"Al is just too WEIRD!" Have you ever thought that you might be to NORMAL to actually appreciate Al?

I think you all need to apologize to Al right now!

APOLOGIZE TO HIM

APOLOGIZE TO WEIRD AL RIGHT NOW!

CLADISTICS ruined my life

Finding a Conscience

So Volume 7 definitely introduced a whole lot of symbolic elements of Penny’s Pinocchio story.

We’ve gotten a Geppetto (Pietro),

a Blue Fairy (Fria),

a symbolic ‘become a real boy’ transformation, or in this case; an affirmation beyond all doubt that Penny was a real girl all along

And the end of the volume even introduced a Montro.

However, even with all this, I recently realized that there was still a major character from Pinocchio that we still seemed to be lacking.

Jiminy Cricket. Which the more I thought about it seemed pretty odd given that Penny doesn’t seem to NEED someone to be her conscience, after all, she seems to be by far the most moral and empathetic of all the Atlas characters.

But now I’m pretty sure that was exactly the point. Because Penny is the Jiminy Cricket of this story. Rather than having a different character act as her conscience, Penny herself acts as the conscience to others. Namely, Ironwood, Winter and the rest of Atlas.

All of Penny’s scenes with Winter from Episode 7 on can pretty much be summed up as Penny playing the role of Jiminy Cricket.

Finally, this adds another layer of symbolism to Winter, and by extension Ironwood, forcing Penny to flee Atlas.

Atlas has now effectively rejected their conscience.

Look at the talent my friendorito @quackerz-creations has.  Look at that!  Is beautiful!

Reblogging for all my college homies.

This is a summary of college only using two pictures; expensive as hell.

That’s my Sociology “book”. In fact what it is is a piece of paper with codes written on it to allow me to access an electronic version of a book. I was told by my professor that I could not buy any other paperback version, or use another code, so I was left with no option other than buying a piece of paper for over $200. Best part about all this is my professor wrote the books; there’s something hilariously sadistic about that. So I pretty much doled out $200 for a current edition of an online textbook that is no different than an older, paperback edition of the same book for $5; yeah, I checked. My mistake for listening to my professor.

This is why we download.
