Humour me

Home to the Irreverent and the Irrelevant. Blame my perverted sense of humour if you don't get something on this side. Though then again it's not all funny funny, just ideas for now. Don't miss the New Names at the bottom, from "Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants", by Dave Pilkey...

What Zipacna signifies

The infinitely wise Kalabarians have analyzed what a baby given the name Zipacna would be like so I quote:
"Your name of Zipacna creates an idealistic, sensitive nature and a desire for culture and the refinements of life. You would work best in a relaxed environment at tasks involving writing, mathematical, or analytical skills that require concentration. You appear calm to others, but at times you suffer inwardly with nervous tension. You can find it difficult to express your deeper thoughts and feelings verbally. It is much more natural for you to express your deeper thoughts in writing. A lack of positivity and confidence is a source of difficulty in making decisions in business dealings. You are easily offended, and can suffer with moods of depression. You want the best, but lack the confidence and aggressiveness to materialize your desires. Procrastination is a weakness, for so often you are inclined to avoid issues and to leave things undone until the last moment when you are forced to take action. You are inclined to indulge in rich foods that lack proper nourishment. This name creates weaknesses in the heart, the respiratory organs, or the kidneys."
*Nods sympathetically* I SO feel your pain. An idealist, sensitive, yearning for the finer things in life. That lack of positivity and aggressiveness must also be the reason why he's still not a System Lord. Ahem. Quite.

INXS lyrics with a Goa'uld point of view

Say what? INXS lyrics. Yes. Not filk versions, just the ordinary lyrics. I WOULD write a filk to the theme song of the Australian TV-show Skippy if I remembered the whole tune, but alas no. So all you're getting instead of "Skippy... Skippy... Skippy the bush kangaroo..." is "Zippy... Zippy... Zippy the Goa'uld underlord..." I can't help it. It just fits perfectly and I can barely keep myself from imagining Zipacna bouncing around the bush after Apophis his master. OK, so I can't keep myself from imagining it then. Though then again, with that pouch Skippy was more like a Jaffa so an actual parody would need more thinking.
Another song that I need to filkify eventually is Lionel Richie's Hello, with the line "I been alone with you inside my mind..." ;)

I was listening to Kick and suddenly had to start laughing during Never Tear Us Apart. It's one of my all-time fave songs but suddenly it gained new meaning and I haven't been able to listen to it quite the same ever since. Although it was actually Devil Inside that started the whole thing...

Devil Inside (lyrics)

"Here come the woman with the look in her eye Raised on leather with flesh on her mind
Words as weapons sharper than knives Makes you wonder how the other half die Other half die
Makes you wonder
Here come the man with the look in his eye Fed on nothing but full of pride
Look at them go look at them kick Makes you wonder how the other half live
The Devil inside the devil inside Every single one of us the devil inside
Here come the world with the look in its eye Future uncertain but certainly slight
Look at the faces listen to the bells It's hard to believe we need a place called hell
A place called hell
The devil inside the devil inside Every single one of us the devil inside
Here comes the woman with the look in her eye She's raised on leather with flesh on her mind
Words are weapons sharper than knives Makes you wonder how the other half die
The devil inside the devil inside Every single one of us the devil inside"
© 1987 INXS

Translation, imagery

Woman with the look in her eye = Goa'uld female with glowing eyes
Raised on leather with flesh on her mind = Leathery skin of the symbiote, flesh of hosts
How the other half die =Either how the host dies or Tok'ra. Neither are goa'ulds
The man with the look in his eye =Goa'uld male with glowing eyes
Fed on nothing but full of pride =Trapped in jars or sarcophagi, FULL of pride even after they get out
The Devil Inside = Pretty self-explanatory I'd say. For "Every single one of us..." just slap all the goa'uld faces out there on view
The World, bells, Hard to believe we need a place called hell = Sokar's world
"Every single one of us the Devil Inside"
I'd naturally want Zipacna as an example of goa'uldom for that, but you get the idea. Would make a wicked fan-video, just not capable of making one myself.

Never Tear Us Apart

"Don't ask me what you know is true, don't have to tell you I love your precious heart
I.... I was standing You were there Two worlds collided and they could never tear us apart.
We could live for a thousand years But if I hurt you I'd make wine from your tears
I told you that we could fly, cause we all have wings But some of us don't know why
I... I was standing, You were there. Two worlds collided and they could never ever tear us apart.
I Don't ask me I was standing You Know it's true
You were there Worlds collided Two worlds collided We're shining through And they could never tear us apart.
You Don't ask me You were standing You know it's true
I was there Worlds collided Two worlds collided We're shining through And they could never tear us apart.

Well, that's fairly self-explanatory too if you ask me. I was standing, two worlds collided and they could never tear the host and the symbiote apart again. :P Likewise, "We could live for a thousand years", very easily. Goa'uld also seem to be capable of flying when they're after a host, do a little spurt, possibly aided by those tiny flappy wing-like things on the side of the head. "We're shining through" refers to the glowing eyes naturally. So now the damn ballad makes me giggle, dammit!

NEW NAMES

My apologies for ruining a perfectly good chain-email (my source for this) but Falafel Diapertush insists that you get the chance to know Squeezit Chickenhead and others...

Follow the instructions to find your funny name. The following is an excerpt from a children's book, "Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants", by Dave Pilkey. The evil Professor forces everyone to assume new names.

Use the third letter of your first name to determine your NEW first name:

a = stinky b = lumpy c = buttercup d = gidget e = crusty f = greasy g = fluffy h = cheeseball i = falafel j = poopsie k = flunky l = booger m = pinky n = zippy o = goober p = doofus q = slimy r = loopy s = snotty t = chim-chim u = dorkey v = squeezit w = oprah x = skipper y = dinky z = zsa-zsa

Use the second letter of your last name to determine the first half of your NEW last name:

a = diaper b = toilet c = giggle d = bubble e = girdle f = barf g = lizard h = waffle i = cootie j = monkey k = potty l = liver m = banana n = rhino o = burger p = hamster q = toad r = gizzard s = pizza t = gerbil u = chicken v = pickle w = chuckle x = tofu y = gorilla z = stinker

Use the fourth letter of your last name to determine the second half of your NEW last name:
a = head b = mouth c = face d = nose e = buns f = breath g = pants h = shorts i = toes j = honker k = butt l = brain m = tushie n = chunks o = hiney p = biscuits q = lips r = tush s = fanny t = sniffer u = sprinkles v = kisser w = squirt x =humperdinck y = brains z = juice
