On Episode 7 of the Korean drama Liver or Die I glanced back at the TV and saw a woman on a household floor freshly slapped by a man, and most peculiar was this woman seemingly had a moustache and goatee applied via marker now smooshed by this man's attack. Seemingly, I say, because I just half-watch most of these shows since it's the channel with the best reception, KEMS (a station that rebroadcasts Korea's KBS TV programming). Also, the foreign language doesn't interfere with my thought process since I don't understand Korean and can still have someone nice chatting in the background.
So...smooshed.
Yeah, smooshed. Right after seeing that poorly moustachioed woman post-hit I thought what if all domestic violence required first that you apply facial hair on each other with a felt tip pen AND THEN you get to slapping? The first goal naturally being making each strategic strike count by deftly smudging the ink across their face.
AND if you can get past the laughs first.
So how about you just not hit each other at all and not look silly with that goofy Fu Manchu or Dali?
Hmmm???
Took a shower
Washed my head
With winter's water
Washed my head
And oh!
How that oh so cold water
raced down
Everest down
like the frostbitten who fought
now the fight of
what might be
frostbite around my eyes
And I feel
my eyeballs
are freezing
But these aching eyes
know not the top of world
just the cold of everything else beneath it
