Last night, I had a dream. The dream was about something I hate. And what's weird is, it all started because of something I've told people in the real world before.
In the dream, I'm talking to a friend. Not a real friend, just a person who was willing to listen to me in the dream. He asked me about something. He asked, "I know you had a very dismissive attitude towards anime during your teen years. Looking back, many anime programs that came in America back then were crap. However, I must ask; Inuyasha came out during your late teen years, and you despise it. Why? Why the hate, speaking as an Inu fan myself?"
Normally, I would say, "Dood, WTF!? U liek Inu? Man, u suk! That manga/anime iz ballz! Its like Naruto, but stupider!" But, I decided to be formal. I launched a lengthy monologue that started like this:
"Well, hate. That may sound extreme, but, I don't hate Inuyasha. Or should I say, not, everything about Inuyasha. There is one thing I rather like. The one saving grace of an otherwise terrible Japanese import. And that one thing is: Kagome's hair. Let me be honest, she has really pretty hair. It's long, perfectly straight, clean, refined, and it's so dark, it reflects light beautifully. Well, I am biased. Her hair is black, and black is my second-favorite hair color. Now begs the question, if I like her hair, does that means she's pretty? Uh, suffice to say, not really. Kagome's hair is her only outstanding feature. Hair follicles notwithstanding, she's a rather ordinary-looking girl . . ."
And throughout the whole time I was talking about Kagome, all I could see was a montage of scenes from the Inuyasha anime showing scenes with Kagome alone, always positioned to show her hair. There was no audio from the montage. I was definitely talking, but all I could see was a montage. Which is strange, because I've only seen about 4 episodes of the Inu anime before giving up forever, so this meant my brain created new Inuyasha footage just for this dream. And, as my monologue went on, I started talking about other things, and the montage played other scenes, such as fight scenes between Inuyasha and Naraku, fights between Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, Scenes of Miroku trying desperately to get laid with various women, Kagome having a conversation with Shippo, and so on. And this went on until I was finished. Then, the montage stopped, and reality (thankfully) set in. The listener was impressed; although I had not swayed his feelings, he had come to respect me more.
The dream ended, and I have to go back to school tomorrow. But, I didn't tell the Inu fan the following: sure, I may like Kagome's hair, but I've seen manga/anime chicks with nicer hair than her.
BURNED!!!!!!
