An article, written halfway and discontinued

Fat is the new black, hot pink or the next hot stuff to blow into town. The utterly puffed-up pigeon makes you coo from the deep most of your heart. The cuddly hamster makes you wibble and that darn fluff-ball of a plushie just compels you to reach out and squeeze it, you know you want it. What do they have in common? Being fluffy? Well yeah, but one cannot deny that fluffy is a quality of being fat. After all, it makes one larger and rounder than normal and it appeals to your eyes, heart and soul.

I quote a junior college student, the age that defines the cool, adorable and hot. “She is so cute!” and who is that she, you ask. It is not Hello Kitty, that candy personification or Tweetie, that cute bird with a sweet personality and a head too big for its body. Rather, it is the Witch of the Waste in her original elderly form full of sagging flesh and aged wrinkles, all wrapped up in floppy cloth. Her huge bright eyes, quaint smiles, mellow expressions and cheeky childlike mannerisms are her winning qualities and they did a perfect job that brought about the audience favour despite her tantrum over Howl’s heart and her former meanness. Truly, in Studio Ghibli, no one is an antagonist to the core.

Even food has incorporated the fat equals appealing factor, though the manner and meaning behind said factors gives off a sense of barbarism. You know that amazingly charming and unreasonably expensive mochi? It probably is derived from those puny mouse one keeps as a pet, hunching and huddling into its body. Both food and household pet are eerily reminiscent of each other. There is the cake row, startling similar to the endearing look of a mouse lying atop another mouse whose head is perpendicular to the side of the top mouse. Let us take a moment to squeal at the touching visualization before shrinking in horror at the implications of what this paragraph has narrated.

…Leaf_nip cannot write anymore for she has been defeated by the visages of loveliness of the mice. Her heart has been conquered and the new governing heads AKA mice visages are clearing out the twisted muses that actually have her relating innocent mice to food.


So yeah, i visited the petshop again today and got inspired. Halfway through this, the inspiration ran away. I think i was trying to convince you that Fat = Adorable but it really would not do to increase the population of heat-attack sufferers. Although that was the main point, you can probably tell that all i wanted to do was talk about how sigh-worthy the mices were. AHHHH!!!! Too cute! And expensive. And it would add on to my responsibilities. Well no, probably my sister's, but still...
