Jeez, Terrance, are these questions real, or bait?
How about I try to answer using loose associations,
like when I finally attended my computer simulation
course on the day of the final, only to find out the
final was to be open-book, on a book I hadn't read,
neither brought to the final? I flunked that.
1. why does Frenesi turn the TV off when the Evangelical
Weatherman is preaching?
Because the evangel is hegemonic, of the pistic group.
2. why is Brock afraid to procreate?
If he is in a Christic position, he is an only begotten
son of self, and to have offspring would contradict; or
because he fears to raise a Zeus or Oedipus to slay him.
3. why does Blicero wear a plastic pussy?
To be androgynous. Hey, that isn't of Imopolex-G is it?
For that reveals the identification of self with coming,
which interiorly projects itself upon the whole body, so
if self, then also accesses the mouth as vagina mapping.
4. why does the bad priest tell Paolo's mother to abort her?
Because they cannot fathom her plight. Like the four inept
friends proffering spiritual maxims to transcendent Job;
and even Job's wife advised him to curse God and die.
5. why does Lardass plow Little Buttercup in the Wasteland?
Because she is herself a sufficient social outcast to not
detect his abject ontically taboo condition, to reject him.
6. why do V and her fetish need mirrors?
(This sounds important. V who?)
*Bonus question* Why does Mason fall of his horse?
Was it bitten on the heel by a snake?
Yours truly,
