Heh. Wasn't I speaking about (hobbies that serve as) drains for surplus
intellectual power recently? It needn't be hobbies, obviously...
I was quite ready to snicker over two old men discussing what would
logically happen next in a totally illogical fairy-tale for
pre-adolescent girls, but then I had a flashback. I won't laugh over
you, I'll give you the opportunity to laugh over me. Do you know "Sailor
Moon"? A japanese anime for schoolgirls, featuring a (clumsy) schoolgirl
that fights demons and other forces of evil (or rather starts a fight
and than waits for the macho tuxedo mask, her boyfriend, to get her out
of the mess)? It had only one plot, it was overloaded with girlish
kitsch - pink, hearts, love and cuteness everywhere. It gave me a
peculiar kick a while ago, and I hardly missed one. I guess it's the
morbid appeal of the naive - I even went to a "moonies" chatroom to
discuss Sailor Moon with girlies in their early teens. I guess that once
in a while you get tired by being yourself, the chain-mail suit of the
person you are becomes too heavy and restricts your breath, so you try
to take it off for a couple of relieving moments and escape into some
fantasy world. You two at least aren't worse off with Buffy than I was
with Sailor Moon. So enjoy.
I SHALL PUNISH YOU ON BEHALF
OF THE MOON! MOON TIARA MAGIC!
Sailor Moon
