@doctorow that’s a Jabberwock! /pedant
There was originally a Bandersnatch in the frame, but they couldn’t quite catch it.
ETA he says “borogroves” both times. Wrong, Cabbagepatch, wrong.
i thought that was the jaberwocky.
Was it frumious?
This is great, but Wil Wheaton wasn’t the source. He reblogged it from here: https://grim-aesthetics.tumblr.com/
I am absolutely fumious that they mislabeled this as a Bandersnatch.
Then there’s Sampson the Jabberwock!
Oh, and don’t forget the Garden of Live Flowers!
Reportedly so, yes. Very frumious.
It’s been a long time since I read Alice and a couple years since I last read the Snark, but for some reason I remember Carroll’s bandersnatch being green. Doesn’t Alice see a flash of something green speedily disappearing over a hill or something? Maybe I’m remembering a derivative work.
For some reason, at this moment I have this strong urge to consume yogurt, raw milk, and bee pollen.
Interesting the way that it seems to be mapped onto a surface, rather than a fully 3d shape.
But why would a simple act of mislabeling render you dirty and oily and redolent of the sea?
That really makes me fruminous.
