History Analysis / RavingLunacy

* '''Sometimes I Wish''', ''The Fake Story'': The "Sometimes I wish I had a girl." line refers to Munday's as of now unsuccessful love life. "Sometimes I wish I was one." reveals that he has fantacised about belonging to the fairer sex. "Sometimes I wish both at the same time." could easily be taken as an off-hand remark about how he believes he would like women even if he was one, or how he finds the thought of being a girl involved with a man unsettling, but it's actually a subtle reference to Munday's bisexuality, something which isn't really mentioned anywhere else in Raving Lunacy, as every other "romantic mention" in it is between a male and a female, which is likely just a coincidence, but could be to, for whatever reason, keep his [[{{UsefulNotes/Bisexual}} bisexuality]] secret.

* '''To the World's Most Wonderful Person''', ''The Fake Story'': This poem is actually about a very real person indeed, namely English actress EmmaWatson, of Film/HarryPotter fame, whom Munday has had a huge crush on for years.

* '''Thumbe-Hearte''' came to be when Munday was having pain in his thumb and he "felt like there was a pulsating heart in it".

** By the way, it's pronounced "ARCH-eh-russ", "WHOO-fee", "DRE-ya", "GNEE-keht" (the "g" is actually pronounced, and the last "h" is actually like the "ch" in "loch") and "rob-a-DO-ee-ann" (the first "o" is pronounced as it would be in a British accent, and the first "a" is like the one in "bad"). [[BlatantLies Could it be any simpler?]]

* The ''The Fake Story'' category is ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin. It's a story. And it's fake. At least largely. It's about Munday's youth, though, one way or another.

* '''The River Giant''' from ''The Fantastic Space'' is basically an introduction to a fantasy novel/ series of novels Munday is planning. The River Giant itself is [[spoiler:actually an enormous statue built by an early human civilisation to incite fear into enemies and cause pride, hope and a sense of safety in their own people]]. It's only [[spoiler:sentient for the purposes]] of the poem, though it was genuinely officially and symbolically ordered to serve the society that built it by the prince who was in charge of overseeing its construction.

* Both '''Archerus Peurce''' and ''The Ballad of Whoufey and Draeja (Gnikeht's Lament Rhobbaduiann's Song)'' are heavily inspired by VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft, and the latter is set in its {{Verse}}, mainly Azuremyst Isle, but also the Exodar and at least one other place; presumably Bloodmyst Isle, Teldrassil or northern mainland Kalimdor. All five titular characters, despite Rhobbaduiann not actually appearing in the poem, either are (Archerus, Gnikeht, Rhobbaduiann; Munday's primary realm) or were (Whoufey, Draeja; another server) characters of his in the game, though Archerus' surname was made up for the purposes of the poem. Gnikeht, Whoufey and Draeja are all Draenei Shamans; Archerus is a Night Elf Death Knight, and Rhobbaduiann, who is male, is a Draenei Priest.
