I played Sharpay in my school’s production of High School Musical (I’m a 6ft tall guy) and I shared the part with this girl who looked nothing like Sharpay either. Instead of having one of us play Sharpay the first night and the other one play it the following night, the first person would run off in the middle of the scene and the other one of us would run on the stage and finish the scene. Also, all the costumes were only in her size.
nothing saddened me more than reading what blog this came from
The image above is a comic panel set in ancient Egypt.
Traditionally, ancient Egyptian art featured stylized people standing in profile. Ancient Greek art discovered and then focused on contrapposto, or a pose where, as described in the comic, a person places all their weight on one leg. It is considered an important phase in art history.
In the comic, a bunch of people are looking at one person who is leaning against a pillar. They are saying:
“Wow! Is that Heptup?” “He looks amazing.” “How was Greece, Heptup? You look really relaxed.”
Heptup, the person leaning on the pillar, says, “Yeah. I got into contrapposto over there. It’s where you put all your weight on one leg. I feel really dynamic.”
Two people on Heptup’s other side say:
“I love how his hips and shoulders aren’t parallel. He just looks so… alive.” “And so graceful.”
A final person speaks in two symbols placed vertically, which is a reference to Egyptian hieroglyphics, their writing system. The symbols he is saying are of a donkey, and of a person digging a hole with a shovel. It can be inferred he is saying something akin to “Bullshit.”
The joke scenario in the comic is one where ancient Egyptian people really did all stand rigidly like that, but one of the Egyptian people who traveled to Greece discovered contrapposto and now he leans on stuff and looks really cool. But the last guy isn’t impressed. It’s poking fun at art history.
Thats a good explanation but i think the hieroglyphs are calling heptup an ass hole
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
