It took me about a month or so to figure that one out.
My general thesis was that Gaiman was pretty consistent and formulaic when it comes to gender identities and sexuality.
Female sexuality and the body = mass destruction and rampant evil. Just look at the woman who destroyed an entire city just by screwing one of the Endless, and all the lady-parts that festoon the gates of hell and the…erm…tall shafts of silver towers that make up his vision of heaven.
That being said, of course I still love the novels.
Oh, and Ghost…I owe you an apology. I’ve been informed that I was actually mistaken about that whole “we vs. us” thing. So this time I got to learn something new!
I can see where you would get that. But I do think the progression of the series represented a sort of reluctant shift of the living subconscious landscape from the entrenchment of those concepts. Of course, that part of our world is so personal and yet so canonical that for Gaiman to ignore it would have been dishonest. For me, it was about the change.
I feel the arc that started with Dream’s own imprisonment started a slow recognition that his perspective was becoming obsolete. (Think of his recognition after 10,000 years – after his sister’s frank assessment of his stupidity – that maybe his lover didn’t deserve to go to Hell). In my mind that shift led to the eventual recognition that a new Dream was needed all together. But hey, we all have our own opinions.
Glad to hear about the grammar thing – not because i want to dis you, but because I’ve always prided myself on my comprehension of these things and was worried I had fallen behind in some serious changes!
Personally, I don’t care for it when writers pander to entrenched misogynistic thinking–I much more appreciate it when they do something new and daring, like turn such archetypes on their arses. The fact that Dream reluctantly admitted that Nada perhaps didn’t deserve hell doesn’t negate the fact that she suffered ten thousand years of unspeakable torture for boffing him. And what was his punishment for his part in the act?
And don’t be silly. Being proven wrong isn’t a diss. It’s just a fact. It happens often…but I’m always learning.
I dunno. I just think it counts that he spent a lot of time making up for the stupid things he did – Nada, Calliope, etc. I don’t think it was pandering. It’s hardly possible to represent change without showing what it was that needed to be repaired.
As for his punishment, I would think that was obvious. He had to forfeit his kingdom and cease to be entirely, so that the Dreaming itself would not be destroyed by his folly.
Learning is good. Discourse is good. Hooray for brains!
I’m not disagreeing. I just think there are much more innovative ways to show change than to rehash tired old anti-woman rhetoric.
And personally, I think that enjoying thousands of years of extreme power and privilege before meeting the fate that all mortals must face isn’t really a “punishment”. It’s a fate, and an inevitability. Perhaps a consequence. But not a punishment.
...erm, also, Nada wasn't punished for boffing him -
she was punished for leaving him. The trip to rescue her
was among the things to seal his fate, and he was aware
of the repercussions at the time. He did it anyway because he (yes, finally) saw it was right.
It’s been a bunch of years since I’ve read them. If I recall correctly, the glass city was destroyed and a large number of people killed as a result of their boffing, at which point Nada jumped off a cliff in guilt and remorse, killing herself. She was then given a choice–stay with him or go to hell (the typical Judeo-Christian punishment for suicide), and she chose hell.
Well, now I want to go back and reread them all. They really are good.

Brutal honesty moment -
I'll only visit FB2 using Ubuntu or my Mac at work,
my game console (winblows) is forbidden from that site
due to pure unadulterated fear. I likely already have Flash
installed in Ubuntu (Youtube works - sort of ... long story),
but I bet most of that stuff is written for winblows and
won't work right with other OS's. So I haven't even
tried any of the games yet - except that

Guess which one I ended up being like.

It doesn’t seem to matter what I call myself, everyone just calls me ‘ZA’ around here anyway. Even when I change to ZHDD.
Besides, all that noise in my name means something to me. Leila started it by giving me the ~I ♥ Bloggy~ tee shirt, which has admittedly accumulated some dirt and grime (some of it is Bloggy’s). Doing battle twice with the Death Star (AKA AT&T) at work opened up the head wound and prompted me to find the sign. Avis found my zombie horse and you named it for me Dilly.
No worries, when I encounter that sticker my rotting brainz won’t be able to handle entering more than ‘ZA’.

In case Nightshayde or other video impaired NEED to know what happened:
The scene:
A heart mobile incorrectly placed up against the wall on the left.
A brown suede couch fills the scene. Four gravatar-deprived pillows are placed above the couch beneath a bad Edvard Munch rip-off of lesser known “The Mulberry Bush” painting, one other gravatar-deprived pillow rests on the right side of the couch seat.
Enter a 15-year-old Michael Ironside look-alike. He adjusts the camera, and sits on the left side of the couch. Enter the love child of Patrick Wilson from Weezer and the main character from that Bully video game, who sits in the midle, and a Tom Lenk (Andrew from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) wanna-be, who sits on the right.
Near-Lenk explains to Near-Wilson this cool game involving wooden spoons called Roshambo or something. Near-Lenk wields the wooden spoon in his mouth, and Near-Wilson puts his head down to take his lumps. As Near-Lenk gently taps Near-Wilson’s head, Near-Ironside wallops him with another wooden spoon produced from hammer-space.
Near-Wilson screams and rubs the back of his head. He rips the spoon from Near-Lenk’s hands and quickly inspects it for illegal modifications. Finding no protruding nails, no explosive agents, or really anything at all, he takes his turn. He ineffectively swishes the spoon near his friend’s head.
They repeat this process two more times before Near-Wilson runs off to cry, and his laughing comrades are hit by an overpass…
Fade to black with lolcaption “One can only hope to find friends like these” followed by Avis falling drunk out of the sky after all the shots from the troll-repeater drinking game.

So we basically got 3 guys on the couch. The rightmost we’ll name “Putz”, the leftmost we’ll name “Butz” and piggy-in-the-middle we’ll name “Gutz”. Putz has a pair of wooden spoons and places the handle of one in his mouth to show Gutz how he will use only his head to thwack Gutz in the back of the head. Meanwhile he sneaks the other spoon to Butz. Gutz holds his head down, Putz makes the motion while Butz thwacks Gutz across the back of the head very hard with the second spoon. Gutz screams out, holding the back of his head in pain. Gutz tries to spoon the back of Gutz’s head, but can’t seem to impart the same energy he is still feeling. Gutz lets Putz try again and once again Butz thwacks him hard. This time Gutz tries harder to retaliate, but only manages to hurt his own jaw in the process. Unable to grasp the finer aspects of the event, Gutz lets Putz do it to him again, this time leaving the couch in pain and agony because this is where the overpass comes in to join the fun of thwacking Gutz across the head.
“One can only hope to find friends like these.” Avis laughs herself right out of the sky and LGB powers with “Works like a charm for me every time… …well, except for yesterday…”.

You really should – Gaiman rocked a helluva tale there, and the symbolic concept integration alone is worth a peek. He does that a lot in later work as well.
i don't get all gooey fangirl for a lot of people, but...
Wow. You sure told him off. Way to go. That was freaking awesome. You are the coolest person I’ve ever met. Taught him a lesson he’ll never forget. Yessiree. So cool.
I’ve played this prank on a few people – the guy on the right is meant to be selling it and pretending like it really hurts – so the other guy doesn’t get suspicious as to why he’s really “bad” at it.
I played this actually, in fact I’ve been pranked like that, but I striked harder with the spoon in my mouth than expected, and made my friend cry, so I didn’t realized it was a prank, I just tought it was a stupid game….Metal spoon BTW.
It only when they did it to an other person I realized my mistake haha !

I gave a paper on the Sandman series at an international conference years ago.
I’m still known in certain circles as “The woman who did that feminist analysis of Sandman.”
Really? What was the verdict?
The fan-boys hated it.
The scholars wanted to publish it.
Fan-boys hate a lot of things.
What’s the down-low on the paradigm?
What did Gaiman think of it?
Oddly enough Gaiman liked it.
My general thesis was that Gaiman was pretty consistent and formulaic when it comes to gender identities and sexuality.
Female sexuality and the body = mass destruction and rampant evil. Just look at the woman who destroyed an entire city just by screwing one of the Endless, and all the lady-parts that festoon the gates of hell and the…erm…tall shafts of silver towers that make up his vision of heaven.

Hrrrmmmm… there’s a little insight.
I thought punishment was the imposition of consequences.
It’s been a bunch of years since I’ve read them. If I recall correctly, the glass city was destroyed and a large number of people killed as a result of their boffing, at which point Nada jumped off a cliff in guilt and remorse, killing herself. She was then given a choice–stay with him or go to hell (the typical Judeo-Christian punishment for suicide), and she chose hell.
Well, now I want to go back and reread them all. They really are good.

The wall is a fickle thing. Sometimes posts disappear. Then they come back, only to disappear AGAIN!

They had an argument over this and settled it with spatulas.
*grins*
Great to do against younger relatives, too. After a few times, start bragging about your developed ability to “double tap” .

Make sure the other person has two spoons.
That’s just so cruel … okay, I will do it!
Etymologically, “spoon” has meant both “splinters” and “spatulas.”
So I wood hope that settles it.

“Hi, My Name Is”________________… hm. No, is too much. I’ll sum up.
It doesn’t seem to matter what I call myself, everyone just calls me ‘ZA’ around here anyway. Even when I change to ZHDD.
Besides, all that noise in my name means something to me. Leila started it by giving me the ~I ♥ Bloggy~ tee shirt, which has admittedly accumulated some dirt and grime (some of it is Bloggy’s). Doing battle twice with the Death Star (AKA AT&T) at work opened up the head wound and prompted me to find the sign. Avis found my zombie horse and you named it for me Dilly.
No worries, when I encounter that sticker my rotting brainz won’t be able to handle entering more than ‘ZA’.

In case Nightshayde or other video impaired NEED to know what happened:
The scene:
A heart mobile incorrectly placed up against the wall on the left.
A brown suede couch fills the scene. Four gravatar-deprived pillows are placed above the couch beneath a bad Edvard Munch rip-off of lesser known “The Mulberry Bush” painting, one other gravatar-deprived pillow rests on the right side of the couch seat.
Enter a 15-year-old Michael Ironside look-alike. He adjusts the camera, and sits on the left side of the couch. Enter the love child of Patrick Wilson from Weezer and the main character from that Bully video game, who sits in the midle, and a Tom Lenk (Andrew from Buffy the Vampire Slayer) wanna-be, who sits on the right.
Near-Lenk explains to Near-Wilson this cool game involving wooden spoons called Roshambo or something. Near-Lenk wields the wooden spoon in his mouth, and Near-Wilson puts his head down to take his lumps. As Near-Lenk gently taps Near-Wilson’s head, Near-Ironside wallops him with another wooden spoon produced from hammer-space.
Near-Wilson screams and rubs the back of his head. He rips the spoon from Near-Lenk’s hands and quickly inspects it for illegal modifications. Finding no protruding nails, no explosive agents, or really anything at all, he takes his turn. He ineffectively swishes the spoon near his friend’s head.
They repeat this process two more times before Near-Wilson runs off to cry, and his laughing comrades are hit by an overpass…

So we basically got 3 guys on the couch. The rightmost we’ll name “Putz”, the leftmost we’ll name “Butz” and piggy-in-the-middle we’ll name “Gutz”. Putz has a pair of wooden spoons and places the handle of one in his mouth to show Gutz how he will use only his head to thwack Gutz in the back of the head. Meanwhile he sneaks the other spoon to Butz. Gutz holds his head down, Putz makes the motion while Butz thwacks Gutz across the back of the head very hard with the second spoon. Gutz screams out, holding the back of his head in pain. Gutz tries to spoon the back of Gutz’s head, but can’t seem to impart the same energy he is still feeling. Gutz lets Putz try again and once again Butz thwacks him hard. This time Gutz tries harder to retaliate, but only manages to hurt his own jaw in the process. Unable to grasp the finer aspects of the event, Gutz lets Putz do it to him again, this time leaving the couch in pain and agony because this is where the overpass comes in to join the fun of thwacking Gutz across the head.
“One can only hope to find friends like these.” Avis laughs herself right out of the sky and LGB powers with “Works like a charm for me every time… …well, except for yesterday…”.

Stolen from a stolen beverage commercial. Lame. Original Prank Fail.
LOL people from NZ will know the origin of this spoon prank
I think these guys copied the original of a Lift Plus Ad in New Zealand
Here’s the proof =P
NZ ftw!!!!!!
This is the original Spoon Prank Win
If you don’t believe it, check out the date this one was uploaded
go new zealand
This is the prank on the movie “Extreme Days”
I don’t think so. Otherwise the screamin’ mimis would have been in my yard today like they were Sunday, banging on some poor guy’s window until he had to come out and tell them to behave themselves.
(Glad I live on the second floor!)

That was on a tv ad here in New Zealand a while back for an energy drink…. sigh….
translation to swedish:
-Olí
-Har skapade en lilla spel.
-Måsta vi hålla annan en sked på munnen och köra det på varandras huvud.
That’s nice.
I don’t know if it’s accurate, but it’s nice.
This is ripped off of an old episode of the BBC series “Robin of Sherwood.” Exact same thing.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYAYA
that was a copy of a commercial not very original
It’s funny how they’re talking in a language I don’t know, and the subtitles are also in a language I don’t know, LOL.
^ burino
I’d really like to know what that guy is shouting.
Vikings, you know. Big, burly, sexy, but not very smart.
1st of all….why the heck is every post here totally unrelated to the video? and secondly, the spoon gag originally aired as a commercial in New Zealand for lift plus.
One of the seven Endless, inconceivably powerful beings older and greater than gods, Dream is both lord and personification of all dreams and stories, all that is not in reality (which, in turn, Dream may define by his existence).
Jimenez, Phil (2008), “Endless, The”, in Dougall, Alastair, The DC Comics Encyclopedia, New York: Dorling Kindersley, pp. 115, ISBN 0-7566-4119-5, OCLC 213309017
And also, unbelievably cool.
And Death is foxy.
nope … but I’m liking the oneiric vibe … and I do have lucid dreams … and I kinda like Roy Orbison … and Steven Wright, who’s shell collection is spread out on all the beaches of the world for everyone to enjoy … so I’ll have to check it out of the reverential section of the library sometime
You really should – Gaiman rocked a helluva tale there, and the symbolic concept integration alone is worth a peek. He does that a lot in later work as well.
“When I’m not in my right mind, my left mind gets pretty crowded.”
(…hooray for
psychopomp culture!)It’s called having a conversation, dear. It’s what people do when they care about more than being right all the time.
this is off the lift plus ad in new zealand!!
This is exactly the lift plus ad here in NZ! wtf?!
433 comments and not a single one is about the video at hand.
So..
Yeah, that guy got spooned!
1 – Obviously you did not read all 433, or you would have seen that many were in fact about the video, several just as humorless as yours.
2 – You expected to find 433 comments about people hitting each other with spoons without the subject getting old?
Wow. You sure told him off. Way to go. That was freaking awesome. You are the coolest person I’ve ever met. Taught him a lesson he’ll never forget. Yessiree. So cool.
(I don’t think he really meant it…)
And yet I lol’d just the same.
Never underestimate the entertainment that can be derived from a spoon.
Never.
This was already done in the movie Extreme Days…it came out like 6 years ago. At least. Now they are ripping it off and getting internet fame. lame.
Wow, way to copy a TV ad. This prank has been around in New Zealand for years now.
For anyone curious, the song in the background is Leave Home by the Chemical Brothers.
lol owned
I am so doing that to my friends.
It’s terrible to pick on the mentally challenged like that!!

This was on the Lift+ Advert in New Zealand.

Spoonful of fail.
They didn’t make that up… I have at least two prank books with that in it.

It’s like watching monkeys
THEY STOLE THIS FROM NEW ZEALAND!!!
These guys have copied off an ad from my home country New Zealand, nice try guys!
Bunch of spooners
3 guys 1 spoon anyone??
Old trick. Saw this in the movie Extreme Days YEARS ago…
It’s ever an older prank! They did this in the eighties in the Robin of Sherwood-series… Can’t remember which episode, though…
I feel like I don’t belong…
This is totally taken off the Lift Plus ad that played for ages here in New Zealand. Stupid people stealing our stuff
This is just a bunch of guys copying an old ad for Lift Plus that was in New Zealand a few years ago. That’s so stupid.
I’ve played this prank on a few people – the guy on the right is meant to be selling it and pretending like it really hurts – so the other guy doesn’t get suspicious as to why he’s really “bad” at it.
HAHA Dumb ass!
this was an new zealand as many years ago
I played this actually, in fact I’ve been pranked like that, but I striked harder with the spoon in my mouth than expected, and made my friend cry, so I didn’t realized it was a prank, I just tought it was a stupid game….Metal spoon BTW.
It only when they did it to an other person I realized my mistake haha !
I like what you guys are up also. Such intelligent work and reporting! Carry on the superb works guys I have incorporated you guys to my blogroll. I think it will improve the value of my website
