If Oscar Wilde had lived in our time, he would be a /b/tard.

Actually, scratch that. He does, and goes by Jethro Q Walrustitty.

No, I haven't.

And, utterly unrelated: Why is this piece of art so inexplicably disturbing? I don't like looking at it. I guess that means it's effective.

The spaghetti at the bottom looks like intestines. Or maggots.

Exactly. Something about the juxtaposition makes it look gory.

And an even more unsettling image follows. Why? I cannot handle the freakishness. Need brain bleach!

That Soliloquy on B is hilarious to me for several reasons. The obvious are amoung them, but the usage of "Zounds!" especially tickles me because of the semantic shift involved—once a fierce curse, it's now tame enough for 5-year-old's entertainment.

Although I still think it sounds better pronounced as "Zowwnds" instead of "Zoonds."

Or, maybe it's just because spaghetti is my least favorite food thanks to the appearance and texture. It's set off my gag reflex since I was a little kid, and it's worse with sauce.

Random thought: I want to finish my sentence. No, I didn't finish it. It only looks finished, but it, in fact, is not. Every time, not finished.

I like tuna spaghetti.

INT is knowing a tomato is a fruit. WIS is knowing it doesn't belong in a fruit salad. CHA is convincing people that it does.

Sometimes I wonder... Can humans truly destroy the nature? It seems to build itself from destruction over and over again...

Why for these thoughts? One name: Chernobyl.

Yes, Radiation poisoning which makes the area unhabitable for humans is the same kind of destruction that toxic wastes brings. Totally.

Harmattane's picture with the spaghetti looks like a big fat Take That! to the modern world. The car represents consumerism, the emphasis on the nose probably represents the rotten smell of the world or corruption, the spaghetti... How cheap it has become?

Sorry, I'm dumb at analyzing art.

It's interesting to think of how effective the Argument From Design was for our ancestors, considering the lackluster status it has today.

I guess "zoonds" is a more 'correct' pronunciation, since it's a contraction of "God's wounds."
