Crtical Analysis of Drawings on a Tile: Part III of a Series
To help you dear blog readers pass the monotony of summer nights, here is another critical analysis of a child's drawing. Warning: it's one of the most challenging drawings to date.
Farrah: This drawing captures the very terrible nature of illness. Especially illness next to triangle shaped gravity-defying houses.

Could it be a tornado?
It could very well be a tornado! It may have led to the young boy on the right catching fire. Much like the winds of an illness cannot be stopped at times, leading to a horrible fiery crash. I still don't know why the other boy looks like a mushroom though...
This tile represents the terror the race of Toad people from Super Mario World feel when they get pizza-induced illnesses, like Pepperoni Fever and Extra-Cheesey Chicken Pox.
It's obvious that this tile represents the miracle of childbirth. The triangle is, of course, a mother's vagina, and you can tell that the diameter of said triangle is exactly 10cm. That means the unhappy face to the right of the birth canal is the father, whom we can assume is a first-time father unaccustomed to the "messier" aspects of childbirth. Therefore, the mushroom-looking thing to the left is the newborn baby, still shrouded in his placenta (The blue hood). Now, the difficult part is interpreting what the artist meant with the blue and yellow tones around the tile. I, for one, take it to mean a transition from the hotter tones on the right of the tile (labor) giving way to the cooler colors of green and blue corresponding to the actual birth. Of course, the artist took a bit too much liberty using inspiration from Picasso's Blue Period, but I am willing to let that slide, as most children are not well-versed in copyright law.
I believe this is classic older-brother induced pathology. Having a little brother myself and being a being a bit of an asshole growing up, I can call myself an expert. The older brother is on the left, as evident by the dotted halo of superiority, and mischievous sneer on his face. Notice he is also holding the brown triangular object. The younger brother is on the right, as evident by his scared appearance, and posture leaning away with hand in defensive position. I believe this sharp triangle is some sort of arrow, mallet, or perhaps even some poop-covered triangle of doom. Something tells me this child suffered injury at the hands of his older brother. I’d expect to see him walking around the hospital with a broken arm and an eye patch.
The artist’s color choices I believe reflect an outdoor scene as the site of injury, and I also wonder if the yellow surrounding the artist represents him either emotionally or figuratively being caught on fire.

I think Pat is wrong
Kid on the left is an evil sorcerer (evil look on face). He / she has set the other dude on fire (terrified look of pain) and trapped them on the right hand side of the picture with the big brown triangle. I'm just guessing, but I think the triangle is to rub proverbial salt in the more literal wound - right hand side kid is into pool - it's a cruel irony that a giant triangle should play a part in his / her painful demise (an even more disturbing reflection on the malice intended by the sorcerer).
I think Amar is wrong.
I think Ronaldinho is right. He won man of the match when Milan played LA Galaxy a day or two back, masha Allah.
I think Shaz is wrong about Ronaldinho.
Sadly for me, I think Farrah is probably right. (He did win man of the match though!)
Farrah doesn't know who Ronaldinho is.
WHAT?! Unacceptable. I don't think I believe you :)
Wow mariamq, i might be wrong, but i think that you really mailed in this blog entry
Oh dude I only just realised there are two different Mariams on here. Now I'm confused!
No, mariamq = mariam. I just have 2 diff. accounts.
That's as confusing as CLASS = Consuming Lunch And Simple Socialising :-p
