Welcome to Today’s Post featuring the Animated Series NOT STANLEY By David Firth. For those Who May be Unaware David Firth is an English Animator, Director, Writer, Musician, Actor, Voice Actor, Video Artist, Broadcaster, and Creator of the Now Legendary SALAD FINGERS. The Word NIGHTMARE is used most often to Describe Firth’s body of Work and Why We are such Diehard Fans of His work. Several of Firth’s works in Flash Animation, along with Multiple Music Videos and Works of Video Art, have garnered a Large (and Ever Growing) Followings Over the Years.

The Animated Series Chronicles the Daily Life of an Eccentric Middle Aged Asshole called Not Stanley who Lives in the City. Not Stanley can Best be Described as Combative, Fast Talking, Abrasive, Cantankerous, Overtly Aggressive, and  Foul Mouthed.  Not Stanley Spends His Days running the Streets Hurling Insults, Arguing with His Elderly Mother, Talking Shit, Picking Fights, Bitching and Complaining Neurotically, Making Threats, and Ranting about Everything in His Life that Pisses Him, and Occasionally Murdering People.

Videos Below in Chronological Order:

  • Not Stanley | I Am Not A Serial Killer
  • Not Stanley | The Supermarket Is To Expensive
  • Not Stanley | Ain’t Got Shit
  • Not Stanley – The Last Episode

FINAL EPISODE IN THE CREATOR’S OWN WORDS: “Recorded July 2010 (the same session as all the other episodes) So here it is. The last of all the Not Stanley content. An extra long final episode using all the bits that I didn’t use before. This is both a prequel and a sequel since the part at the start in the shop was the first thing I recorded and gives context to later episodes in which he says things like “I went BACK down to the system office” and the part at the end was the last thing I recorded. I stuck it all together in a big lump and finally got around to animating it. It looks a bit nicer in HD I think.” David Firth

Plastic Men

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring the Remake/Remix of TreatsForBeasts Video PLASTIC MEN by Hydraulic Beanbag. PLASTIC MEN was Originally Posted in 2012 by Creator, Director, and Musician Jordan Diniz. Diniz is the creator of the mind boggling bizarre  Youtube channel Treatsforbeasts as well other earlier video/musical projects. NOT a whole fucking lot is really known about Diniz like for example when researching I found shit like this “It is possible he is from Massachusetts.” which was IN-FUCKING-FURIATING! You damn well know Finding Information is gonna be a REAL son of a bitch if No One even knows where Diniz is from. I did manage to find SOME goddamn Additional Information which You will find Below.

  • Diniz has preformed in several bands such as Thang City and The Liquid Flow.
  • Diniz was the keyboardist in Holding Steady The Heartbeat of Hell.
  • Currently music wise Diniz is making music under the name Sanguinarious.
  • Diniz’s music genre of choice could be considered a mix of Gothic rock, Heavy Metal, and quite possibly Post-Punk.
  • Some say he looks like Jesus.
  • Diniz has what has been described as “ridiculously expandable jaw” (an example of this is Diniz singing in the video “I me you love god ”
    From Diniz’s work it’s apparent he doesn’t think favorably about Christianity/Catholicism.
  • Diniz created Treatsforbeats on September 26, 2009.
  • Diniz has gone YEARS before posting new content on his Treatsforbeasts Youtube channel.

As Far as Hydraulic Beanbag is Concerned the Channel Description is as Follows:

“へ‿(ツ)‿ㄏ

the green and brown guy is named bunga

I make the ambient background music myself, and they’re all made just for that individual video, they don’t have names

my favorite food is jello, flavor doesn’t matter in the realm of the squishy

If you want

if you REAAALY have to contact me (you don’t) my dm’s are open, haha just kidding, used to have discord here but no more, know what change of heart if i dont wanna talk to you i wont, but i do want to talk to some of you so ill put it back Beanbag#5554. if you really really have a serious question message my email that I don’t check hydraulicbeanbag@gmail.com. also don’t ask to sponsor me as I’m not ready yet (and I may never be), this email is just for dum shid and collab suggestions”

Our Thoughts: So when it come to Hydraulic Beanbag We will let You decipher and decide what the fuck You think that fucking Asinine Absurdity is About. As Far as the Hydraulic Beanbag’s Remake/Reboot of Treatsforbeasts it’s Pretty Damn Decent when it comes to a fucking Remake/Reboot because it Doesn’t fuck with the Original Nightmare Fuel Feel, but it’s really quite fucking Obvious Nothing Beats the Treatsforbeasts Original (Which We have Posted in Here in the Animation/Cartoon Section). And for the fucking Record Though We aren’t Fans of Anything CGI We have to give Credit where Credit is Due, and Even Tough Hydraulic Beanbag’s PLASTIC MEN Version Opted to Use CGI They did Keep the Unnerving Aesthetics of the Main Character.

THE LYRICS (for Lack of a Better Word )to PLASTIC MEN are the Following:

“Plastic Men, Women, and Children want to tickle me in the wilderness. They watch as I caress my exposed spine…I’m ashamed of my own body.”

Elons Blue Check Mark

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring ELON BLUE CHECK MARK by the One and Only MeatCanyon.  MeatCanyon’s real name is Hunter August Hancock better know by His online user name MeatCanyon. Hancock is an American Youtuber, Animator, Voice Actor, Comedian, Writer, and Director who makes Parody Animations of Popular Characters (say Sponge Bob for instance). Some viewers of MeatCanyon’s Animations  have been Described them in just One Single Word “Horrifying”. A common on going gag in Hancock’s video’s is that Something Normal or Mundane gets You Killed or Possible Worse.

Not Just that We Also fucking Hate Absolute Idiot and Overrated Asshole Elon Musk and with Good fucking Reasons. First Off Elon isn’t a Self Made Billionaire like Steve Jobs for Example since Asshole Elon’s Parents are Wealthy as Fuck. Point being Elon is an Impulsive, Immature, Egotistical, Ignorant, and Stubborn Trust Fund Brat.  Asshole Elon hasn’t Worked for Anything Ever in His Pampered Life. The Only reason He was able to Achieve Anything such as Starting Tesla was because Mommy and Daddy would Provide Him Excessive Financial Assistance (aka They Bank Rolled Moronic Musk’s Shit) it’s All been Handed to Him on a fucking Silver Spoon Courtesy of Mommy and Daddy. Bottomline here is Moronic Musk was/is a Bratty Billionaire’s Son who got Bored one Day and Decide to Play Businessman.

Now Don’t get Us Wrong Tesla Cars are fucking Fantastic, but that Doesn’t mean the Company is Successful (Tesla has Teetered on the Verge of Bankruptcy Numerous Times over the Years) Nor Does it Insure the Person Running it isn’t a Total Bonafide Fuck Up or Outrageous Asshole. The Problem with Tesla as Most are Aware is in Their Elaborate Overkill when it comes to Assembly. For Example the Average Car, Truck or SUV have Wheel Wells that consist of One Piece of Manufactured Plastic Tesla’s Wheel Well’s consist of 37 Different fucking Parts. Again that Sounds Cool and looks Alright on Paper, but this is Real fucking Life and that Overly Elaborate Assembly Model Doesn’t fucking Cut it.

The Point being it takes TOO fucking Long to Complete a Tesla since a Automated Robotic Assembly Line is Out of the Question. Again this is because Teslas are to Intensive an Assembly for a Robot to Accomplish. And Obviously People work WAY fucking Slower since Robots Don’t Need Pay Checks, Time Off, Go on Strike, take Sick Days, take Vacation Time, need/have 401 ks, to Eat, to Sleep, take Bathroom Breaks, and Doesn’t have Other Responsibilities (like Kids for Example) or make Problems.

As fucking far as Tesla is Concerned the Last Point We would like to make People Run Out of Patience, Especially Wealthy Motherfuckers, So Who the fuck wants to Pay $120,000 Plus in Full (Fuck that Bullshit Tesla Equivalent to an Economy Version that’s Not Incentive its a fucking Insult) for a Car and have to Wait Currently 2 1/2 fucking YEARS before You get it?! No One or No One in the End that’s fucking Who.

Asshole Elon is a Shit so called Businessman and the Reason Tesla faces Possible Bankruptcy from Time to Time is Elon’s Fortune is due to His Tesla Stock. Now Any Financial Profession will tell You that is Dumb as Fuck to Do. You should NEVER Leverage the Stock from Your Main/Parent Company for a New Venture or Investment. This is because if the New Company sucks ass and Goes Under Your Loss can Cripple or Kill Your Main/Parent Business. Asshole Elon is Currently Dealing with this Dilemma since that’s Exactly what the fuck He did to Buy Twitter and Proves Once again He isn’t a Genius Business Man But Rather . Plus He took Out a $12.5 Billion Loan because (in spite of All His Bragging) He Didn’t Actually have All the Cash Required for His/The Purchase of Twitter.

Moronic Musk’s TOTALLY BOTCHED Acquisition of Twitter is a PRIME fucking Example of how Self Described Business Expert Asshole Elon is in Fact a Complete fucking Ignorant Idiot. The Main Body of Proof Lies in the Contract Moronic Musk Signed Pertaining to His Purchasing of Twitter. Asshole Elon’s First fucking Mistake was when in a Televised Interview He was asked BASIC GENERAL INFORMATION Questions about His Purchasing Twitter and Couldn’t Answer a Single fucking One. Moronic Musk then Justified His Utter Ignorance by Admitting He Didn’t Actually Know the Details since He really Didn’t Pay Attention. So for Starters Asshole Elon’s People agreed to a $1 Billion Penalty if for Any Reason Moronic Musk Pulled Out of the Deal.

Obviously after Asshole Elon Didn’t want to Pay the Penalty He just wanted Out of the Deal for Unspecified Reasons. Thus Asshole Elon Spent 2 Weeks Shooting His Mouth Off Bragging Non Stop about Him Buying Twitter, and then Spent 6 weeks or So Battling in Court to get Out of the Purchase and Accompanying Penalty. Not Only Did Moronic Musk Fail MISERABLY to Avoid having to Pay the Penalty, BUT there was Something FAR More Significant and Relative Part of the Contract No One Really Talked about. You see Not Only did Twitter have a $1 Billion Penalty for Backing Out They also made Sure They had the Ability to FORCE THE SALE. Force the Sale means Exactly That Twitter had the Ability to FORCE Elon to Go Through with the Sale/Deal and That’s Exactly What They Did. What was fucking Pathetic as fuck was How Bitch Ass Asshole Elon Shut the Fuck Up for a Week and then Came Back all Nonchalant stating He was Buying Twitter like None of the Previous Bullshit had Happened. Unfortunately for Asshole Elon it Didn’t End there Oh No He went on to make a Bigger fucking Ass Out of Himself (Just Reaffirming He has NO FUCKING CLUE about Business).

In the Interest of Wrapping this Up and Getting to the Video this Last Part will be in the Form of Bullet Points Pertaining to Asshole Elon and Twitter since He Purchased it (and Started Running it into the Ground at Incredible Speed).

  • Elon first and Foremost is a Free Speech Hypocrite. By that We mean He claims to High fucking Heaven He is all for and about Free Speech, BUT if Anyone Criticizes Him or and of His Companies He Terminates Their Account.
  • Elon was Arrogant as Fuck and like Putin with Ukraine Moronic Musk Thought that He’d Stroll in, Take Control, and Live Happily Ever fucking After, AND LIKE PUTIN HE WAS WAY FUCKING WRONG. This is Due to the Fact Elon likes the Attention and Not Actually Working so He by Pawns  off on His Financial/Legal Team(s) and is Personally a Business Retard.
  • Asshole Elon due to His Shitty Subpar Business Practices Elon has Lost 50% of Twitters Advertisers.
  • Also Due to being a Business Practices Elon has Alienated a Large Portion of Twitter’s User Base Who are Leaving Twitter for Other Social Media Platform like the Up and Coming Mastodon.
  • Idiot Elon Also in His First fucking Week Fires HALF OF THE TWITTER Staff in Mass Layoffs. Who the fuck does Dumbfuck shit like that, No Seriously what fucking Imbecile Buys Company and Promptly Fires 50% of the Employees?!

  • After Firing Half the Staff Moronic Musk realizes His Colossal fuck Up and then does a 180 and Begs the Employees He just Cold Heartedly Fired to Please take Their Jobs Back. If that’s Not fucking Pathetic We Don;’t Know what is.
  • Assclown Elon was so DESPERATE to make Money He allowed ANYONE willing to Pay a Measly $8 a Month to have a Blue Verification Check Mark. The Whole fucking Point of the Blue Check Marks was to Verify REAL USER ACCOUNTS to Avoid Fraud and Impersonation of Any Kind. So this Stupid Policy Change Backfired IMMEDIATELY as People used the New System to Impersonate All kinds of People/Companies wreaking Havoc on the Platform. BUT Greed Imbecile Elon is still Sticking with His Asinine Idea.
  • Currently Idiot Elon is Picking a Fight with Apple since Apple was one of the Major Advisers to Pull Their Advertising from Twitter when Asshat Elon took Over. Instead of Trying to Schmooze Apple back to the Table Asshole Elon starts Talking Shit Over and Over on Social Media about Apple pulling its Advertising. So Again We ask What Kind of Absolute Idiotic Asshole who wants a Companies Advertising Dollars INSULTS THEM ON SOCIAL MEDIA, Assfuck Elon that’s Who. So Apple fired Back Reminding Moronic Musk that They had the Power to Pull the Twitter App from it’s App Store which would put a SERIOUS Hurting on Twitter

So in Summation People are Feeble Minded Fools so it’s Really Not so Surprising  how Asshole Elon has Scammed People into Believing He is a Genius and Brilliant Businessman. They Bought into Asshat Elon’s Self Promotional Horseshit about Standing with the Common Man, and All that Bullshit Moronic Musk is Constantly Babbling  About. Assbag Elon is in Reality Nothing fucking Special. He Didn’t Pay His Dues with Hard Work, Determination, and Intestinal Fortitude He just asked His Daddy for a fucking Handout.  Also Asshole Elon Doesn’t Know Jack fucking Shit about Business the People that Work for Him Allegedly do. We say Allegedly because Obviously His Lawyers are Pure fucking shit. Really look How Anus Lick Elon’s Legal Team fucked up the Twitter Contract Which Ultimately fucked Anus Elon by Twitter being able to Force the Deal to go Through.

Assuck Elon isn’t on the Same Level as Bill Gates or Steve Jobs, No He is on the Same Level as Paris Hilton or Brooke Hogan. Idiot Elon is a Complete fucking Fraud He’s just Another Billionaire’s Dumbfuck Kid Acting Out His Fantasies on His Parents Dime. The Only fucking Place on the  Entire fucking Planet that Asshole Elon is a Legend is in His Own fucking Mind.

Also We Enjoy this MeatCanyon Cartoon because of its Nod to the 1986 Remake by David Cronenberg of the Sci Fo Horror Movie THE FLY .

For Shits and Giggles: The Bottle and The Bottle 2

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring the Double Header of THE BOTTLE and THE BOTTLE 2 by Cool 3D World. And Who Exactly is Cool 3D World You may be Wondering to Yourself? Well when Brian and popcorn10 ( Their Youtube Handles) were introduced via Mutual Friends, They realized They shared an Interest in Exploring “Visual Art Inspired by Electronic Music” and so Cool 3D World was Born- as a Place where the Duo can Create “Art, Music, and More! All in 3D.”

Let’s be fucking Honest THE BOTTLE and THE BOTTLE 2 could have fucking Simply been One fucking Video Considering THE BOTTLE’s Runtime is a Minuscule 38 Seconds and THE BOTTLE 2 is Barely 1 Minutes and 5 fucking Seconds. So All We can Venture to Guess is THE BOTTLE was Never Initially Intended to have a Sequel since the Videos are Poste 2 Years Apart. Anyways We Digress so We can get the fuck Back on Track.

THE BOTTLE and THE BOTTLE 2 Star a Insanely fucking Creepy Naked Old Man with a Real Pedophile fucking Vibe and isn’t Helped by the Fact the Creepy Old Pervert Character makes Infant Baby Noises. The Plot is this Creepy Old Bastard Roams the Country Side with a Head in a Glass Bottle. We know Sounds pretty Tame and We Don’t want to Spoil Anything since the Videos have Microscopic Runtimes but Trust Us it gets Weirder and Weirder as it Goes like Teletubbies on fucking Bath Salts.

Here are Some Things/Details that Pertain to THE BOTTLE and THE BOTTLE 2:

THE BOTTLE ONE: Key Word “Shithead”

THE BOTTLE 2: The Shithead Doesn’t Fall Far from the Shit Tree.

KILL YOUR MAKER and SUICIDAL CLAY FIGURINE

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring a Stop Motion Double Header KILL YOUR MAKER and SUICIDAL CLAY FIGURINE by Swedish Content Creator Alex Unger who makes Stop Motion Animations as Well as Sculptures in His Free Time. Unger Posts His Videos to His Youtube Channel called Guldies which are Almost Exclusively Tutorials in Sculpting and Animation. But there are Exceptions to EVERY Rule and there is an EXTREMELY FUCKING Small Sampling of Surreal, Sick, and Twisted Animations (just take the fucking Titles of the Videos in this fucking Post for fucking Example). The Two Videos Show Two different Sides Styles in Unger’s Stop Motion Animation Videos. On One Hand SUICIDAL CLAY FIGURINE is Short and Direct to the fucking Point You simply take it at Face fucking Value. Then on the Other Hand KILL YOUR MAKER is a Surreal Little Mindfucker that You May take at Face Value (Due to it’s Bare Bones Presentation), BUT IF Think About it as You Edge Inch by fucking Inch Down the Rabbit Hole You can Find the Profound Meaning that Lies Beneath.

Our Thoughts: Short, Sweet, and Violent 17 Seconds of Stop Motion Morbid Madness and We fucking Love it.

PUMPKIN SPICE – White Woman Season

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring PUMPKIN SPICE – WHITE WOMAN SEASON byOne of Our Favorite Animators Meatcanyon. MeatCanyon’s real name is Hunter August Hancock better know by His online user name MeatCanyon. Hancock is an American Youtuber, Animator, Voice Actor, Comedian, Writer, and Director who makes Parody Animations of Popular Characters (say Sponge Bob for instance). Some viewers of MeatCanyon’s Animations  have been Described them in just One Single Word “Horrifying”. A common on going gag in Hancock’s video’s is that Something Normal or Mundane gets You Killed or Possible Worse.

                        

One of the Key Reasons We get a Real fucking Kick Out of this Particular MeatCanyon Cartoons is the Social Commentary. First Off Let’s all fucking Face it this Pumpkin Spice Obsession that People have is Way the Hell Out of Control at this Point. It was Annoying Enough when it was just Fucking Starbucks (or Starbucks as We refer to Them as) Pimped Their Pumpkin Spice Coffee every fucking October Relentlessly. Then every Other Motherfucker started Peddling a Pumpkin Spice Version of Their fucking Products from Coffee Creamer to Spam. Yeah that’s fucking Right fucking SPAM the Infamous Canned fucking Meat adds Pumpkin Spice to the Ears and Assholes or Whatever Meat Scrap Dog Food They Use. Again I Think We all can fucking Agree when there is a Pumpkin Spice Spam shit has Gone WAY TOO fucking Far.

Now as Far as Starbucks is Concerned its Nothing More than a Caffeine Fueled Scam. Coffee is Simply Hot Water Filtered through fucking Coffee Bean Grounds so Essentially it’s Hot Caffeinated Coffee Flavored fucking Water. And We could care the fuck Less about all the Bullshit Gimmicks (There Others then just the Pumpkin Spice Shit) like Whip Cream Topping, Sprinkle of fucking Cinnamon, Adding Caramel fucking Drizzle it’s all Horseshit. Also We Do Not Give a Flying fuck that They call Their Employees as fucking Baristas or That They sell fucking Fruit. Not to Mention the Pathetically  Lame CDs (Yeah fucking CDs believe that Shit) by People NO ONE GIVES A RAT’S ASS ABOUT which is Why Their CD is being Sold at a Pompous Over Rated Commercialized Coffee Shop Chain.

Bottomline on this Starbucks bullshit is They try WAY TOO FUCKING HARD to come off as Some Authentic High Class Italian Coffee Shop. The Reality it’s Run by Greedy Corporate Whores and is a Americanized Wannabe Classy European/Italian Bistro when it’s just a SCAM to get Gullible Gimmick Loving Lemmings to Pay $9 for Hot Coffee Flavored Water. If Your a Starbucks Fan and get all Bent about this Please Go Butt Chug a $12 DickNip-Dipshit-Half Caff Motherfucking Mocha Latte on Us  (and Don’t forget the fucking Pumpkin Spice Asshole)!!!

Enjoy.

CONSUMING and EMBRACE YOUR MADNESS

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post featuring CONSUMING and EMBRACE YOUR MADNESS by Content Swedish Creator Alex Unger Who makes Stop Motion Animations as Well as Sculptures in His Free Time. Unger Posts His Videos to His Youtube Channel called Guldies which are Almost Exclusively Tutorials in Sculpting and Animation. But there are Exceptions to/for EVERY Rule and there is a Small Handful of Surreal, Sick, and Twisted Animations. Both of the Videos Showcase a few of User’s Monstrous Mutant Sculptures, and to be Fair Our Favorite of the Two would be CONSUMING. Though We do think EMBRACE YOUR MADNESS is a way fucking cooler Title.

CONSUMING: Is a Slide Show of Two Humanoid looking Mutant Creatures Eating Babies or at Least a Baby.

EMBRACE YOUR MADNESS: Again is a Slide Show Showing the Creative Construction of an Abominable Beast that is Pure fucking Nightmare Fuel. The Creepy Creature Reminds Us of Something Straight Out of the HELLRAISER Movie Franchise and We fucking LOVE HELLRAISER.

CREATIVE NOTE: All Unger’s  of the Monstrous Monstrosities in these Videos were Constructed Using Acrylic Paint and Super Sculpey.

A Hard Fork For Humanity

Welcome to Today’s Post featuring A HARD FORK FOR HUMANITY by Content Creator Known as Umami (aka Justin Tomchuk) Who is a Canadian Artist and Content Creator who makes Surrealist Animated Videos. We can say in All and Utter Honesty is this is by FAR the Trippiest Mindfucker  of Video by Umami that We have seen to Date. Not Only that it just so Happens to Also be One of the Trippiest Mindfucker Videos We have ever seen Period.

Now We really Can’t Begin to Describe this fucking Video worth a Damn, BUT luckily for Us the Description by Umami well Simple fucking Says it All. I know it We could be Accused of just “Phoning it In”, and to Those We say Watch this Motherfucker and THEN see if You still Think So. In Our Humble Opinion to get the Most Perspective it’s Beneficial to Smoke some Weed while Watching. So with that Said without Further Ado here is A HARD FORK FOR HUMANITY…….

     

Description by the Creator Umami:

Aboard the SpaceX Starship heading to Mars, a sentient packet of soup mix comes alive to school Elon Musk about its future inhabitants.

Dinner For Few

Welcome to Today’s FYB Post the Animated Short Film DINNER FOR FEW by Award Winning Director and Animator Nassos Vakalis which an Allegorical Depiction of Society. I in Particular find DINNER FOR FEW to be Interesting and Entertaining is the Social Commentary that Reminds Me of Two of My Favorite fucking Books of All fucking Time. Those Two Books Being Animal Farm by George Orwell which is a Scathing Criticism on the Flaws and Failure of Communism. The Other is the Graphic Novel MAUS by Art Spiegelman which Depicts the Author’s Interviewing His Father about His Experiences as a Holocaust Survivor. Both Books and DINNER FOR FEW rely Heavily on Symbolism which I personally enjoy the fuck Out of (Especially Using Specific Animals to Embody Different Kinds of People. Example The Rich and Powerful) those that do per Animal Farm are Depicted in all 3 Works as PIGS.

The Best Part of Symbolism and DINNER FOR FEW is it actually makes You fucking think in the fucking age of Smart Phone Zombies and Laptop Ghouls. Swear to fucking God all the shit They put Out and Dare to call Entertainment is MINDLESS FUCKING DRIVIL. The Point and Click/Touch/Swipe Technology is causing Humanity to Actually De-fucking-evolve into Retarded, Mindless, Cavemen. Think I’m being over fucking Dramatic well then Ponder the fuck Out of This. Emojis are and have Always Been the Digital Equivalent of fucking Cave Paintings (No Hieroglyphs is too Advanced at this Point to be fucking Comparable).

Our View: DINNER FOR FEW does have One Unique Aspect that Sets it Apart from the Two Aforementioned Books, and that is it Depicts the Cycle of Life in Society as Opposed to just Commenting on the Social Situation/Issue/Problem at Hand. DINNER FOR FEW reminds Me of Two Sayings that for Me go Hand in Fucking Hand and They are the Following:

  1. “The Rich get Richer and the Poor get Poorer.” This Serving as the Societal Circle of Life on the Macro Level.
  2. “Don’t Piss on My Leg and Tell Me it’s Raining.” The Day to Day Injustices in Society and Those Affected by Them on the Micro Level.

The Symbolism as We see it:

  • Pigs: Well Obviously as I mentioned before the Pigs are Symbolic of the Wealthy, Privileged, Greedy, Gluttonous, Self Serving Elitist Assholes Who Only give shit about Themselves.
  • The Chef: Stands for the System that Enables the Pigs without Question its His Only function is to Blindly Serve the Pigs.
  • The Cats: Represent Average Citizens/Every Day People aka Anyone Who isn’t a fucking Pig.
  • White Lion: Is Indicative of Revolution as the Cats Unite against the Common Enemy the Pigs and Revolt Against the Tyrant Swine. Not Only that But the Feline Uprising enables the Cats to Not Only Stand Up Against the Pigs but to Also Exact Revenge in the Form of a Brutal Blood Soaked and Murderous Massacre.
  • The Lion Sleeping: is Symbolic of Peace and in this Case the Peace is that Peace has been Restored to the Land so to Speak.
  • Chef Killing the Lion and Kittens: Represents the Cycle of a Sick Society Continues it’s Never Ending Circle where Unavoidably things will Always Remain the Same.

Description By Creator Nassos Vakalis:

During dinner, “the system” feeds the few who consume all the resources while the rest survive on scraps. Inevitably, the struggle for what remains leads to catastrophic change. The offspring of this transition turns out not to be a sign of hope, but the spitting image of the parents.
