… Eh, except Hamlet’s father was a bit of an asshole, whilst Mordred’s father was King Arthur, a person of justice and unity. Sooooo….
Who fucked his sister, (yes he was tricked but it still happened and he tried to pretend like it didn’t happen and he didn’t have a bastard son) ignored multiple codes of honor in both the code of chivalry and code of courtly love, and actually was a pretty shitty king who had a lot of questionable men who ALSO broke multiple codes chosen as his knights of the round table
I studied this shit for months because our AP lit class was supposed to
hold a full on trial for each knight of the round table and king arthur
himself to judge if they were really just or not. I was Mordred’s
defender, and I will stand by him completely because I studied the SHIT
out of his case and by his own peoples’ laws and beliefs, he was
probably the most chivalrous person there. The ‘wrongs’ that he did were to protest the violations of the codes that the king, his wife, and lancelot broke on multiple occasions.
A horse walks into a bar. The bartender says, “you’re in here alot, are you an alcoholic?”
The horse ponders for a minute and responds “I don’t think I am” And poof he disappears
This is where philosophy students start to snicker, as they are familiar with Descartes postulate, “I think, therefore I am.”
But telling you that first would be putting Descartes before the horse
GO TO YOUR ROOM!
I’m ashamed at how much this made me laugh.
this whole joke is the most esoteric thing I’ve ever read. it has so many depths to it from a subverted joke, to a philosophical joke and ends on a fucking play on words.
So… I think beloved comics page feline and king of comedy “Garfield” is a bakeneko. Shocking, I know. Here is my evidence:
According to Japanese folklore, a cat may become a bakeneko by meeting any of the following three conditions: -Living over ten years of age. Check -Reaching one kan (3.75 kg or 8.25 lbs) in weight Big Check
Once transformed, bakeneko gain a range of paranormal powers. These powers are used to haunt the household they live in. They include: -menacing (even eating) sleeping humans
That’s a check.
-walking on its hind legs.
HMM.
-They may use their shape-shifting powers to live a life as a human would normally …
-… sometimes by taking the place of a member of the household after killing and consuming them in their sleep.
Bakeneko also have the ability to eat anything in their way, regardless of size
or edibility.
Bakeneko are also sometimes said to have the power to enter someone’s dreams.
The evidence is all right there, people. Garfield is a godless youkai and must be exterminated. Fuck you Garfield.
