HEH!

Dit is het echte verhaal achter ‘In de Maneschijn’
Bron: Pexels
Eerder schreven we over het echte verhaal achter ‘Altijd is Kortjakje ziek’. Ben je al bijgekomen? 
We hebben namelijk een nieuwe: het echte verhaal achter ‘In de Maneschijn’.
Het bekende kinderliedje kunnen we allemaal vrolijk meezingen. Sommige kennen er zelfs een dansje bij. 
Maar de huidige versie van ‘In de Maneschijn’ is helemaal niet zo vrolijk, zo blijkt…
In de Maneschijn
Van oorsprong zijn oude kinderliedjes vaak gedichten waar later liedjes van zijn gemaakt of
volksliederen die in de loop der tijd door het gewone volk werden gezongen. De lieden beschreven een 
gebeurtenis, waren soms spottend of bevatten een waarschuwing. Dat laatste geldt voor de huidige versie van
 ‘In de Maneschijn’. Say what?

Queesten
Het liedje ‘In de Maneschijn’ waarschuwt meisjes om zich niet te laten verleiden door de queesters.
 Daar heb je waarschijnlijk nog nooit van gehoord, maar zo zit het:
Vroeger, als een jongen en een meisje van het platteland wilden trouwen, ging dat niet zomaar. 
Het meisje moest aantonen dat zij haar toekomstige man kinderen kon geven, en hij moest aantonen
 dat hij het gezin kon onderhouden. Als de jongen had aangetoond een gezin te kunnen onderhouden, 
kreeg hij verlof om met het meisje te vrijen. Nog een leuk weetje: hier komt ook het ‘verloving’ vandaan. 
Als het meisje tijdens de verloving zwanger raakte, zag iedereen erop toe dat de jongen ook daadwerkelijk 
met haar trouwde. Vanaf de verloving sliep het meisje in de opkamer (soort zolderkamer) met het raam op een kier.
Tegen de buitenmuur stond een ladder en die was niet alleen bedoeld om de jongen makkelijk boven te krijgen, 
maar ook om de omgeving te informeren. Ook andere ongetrouwde jongens uit het dorp, als ze van dezelfde
 kerk waren, hadden het recht om na zonsondergang door het raam naar binnen te gaan. Ze mochten friemelen, 
maar moesten wel boven de dekens blijven liggen. Op die manier nam het meisje afscheid van haar jeugd 
en kon ze bovendien aantonen dat zij haar aanstaande man trouw zou blijven. Dit verschijnsel heet queesten.

De tekst
Zit je nog op je stoel? Dat is even schrikken, hè? Als je nu – met dit in je achterhoofd – de tekst leest, 
valt het al meer op zijn plek:

In de maneschijn, in de maneschijn klom ik op een trapje naar het raamkozijn.
Als het zonsondergang is komt de vrijer door het raam van de opkamer naar binnen.
En je waagt het niet, en je waagt het niet
Zo doet een vogel en zo doet een vis
Zo doet een duizendpoot die schoenenpoetser is

Bij deze tekst moeten we er iets dieper in duiken. Waag het niet! Ook vogels, 
vissen en duizendpoten komen via het raam naar binnen. 
De vogel in dit verhaal is een vreemdeling (vreemde vogel), vogelen betekent daarnaast
 ook ‘geslachtsgemeenschap hebben’. Een vis is een gelovige en een duizendpoot 
kan alles. Een duizendpoot die in werkelijkheid schoenpoetser is, is iemand met mooie praatjes.

En dat is één, en dat is twee en dat is dikke, dikke, dikke tante Kee
En dat is recht en dat is krom en dan draaien we het wieltje nog eens om

Vrijer met de vrijer (één) mocht, dat is recht. Vrijen met nog iemand (twee) mocht niet, dat is krom. 
Doe je het toch en raak je zwanger (dikke tante Kee), dan is de vrijer niet verplicht om met je te trouwen
 en gaat het kind naar de nonnen. Daar komt het zinnetje met de wiel vandaan. 
In een nonnenklooster was vaak een wiel in de muur gemetseld, daar konden kinderen anoniem 
te vondeling worden gelegd. Aan de buitenkant werd het kind in het wiel gelegd en vervolgens naar
 binnen gedraaid.
In de Maneschijn‘ waarschuwt meisjes dus om niet te lichtzinnig met mannen naar bed te gaan. 
En wij maar vrolijk meezingen.
Bert van Zantwijk

==> AMAAI.. en ik maar denken, het is een liedje vol 'Jabbertalk, of Jibberish'..
Maar niets blijkt minder waar....

Whats up with that?

What's up with the world recently?


Well.. It looks like the world is turning.. with entertainment such as singing, movies and also dancing..

Nono.. not tap, not ballroom, not modern,..not even ballet.. but the strangest kind of dancing..

Thanks to Jenny Ortega from Netflix's Wednesday..

-- Btw... a superb, fantastic and joyous show!-- just love the black humor.. it's almost going over the edge sometimes,  but classical :) And yes.. it's by the hand of Tim Burton.. 

Two thumbs op! :D

More at..

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13443470/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1 

but everyone is talking about THAT dance.. You already now which one isn't it? :)

Here it is..


And what a zinger that song has to!! :D LOOOOVE the whole vibe in it too...
The song is called 'GOO GOO MUCK' (by the Cramps) sound from the 80's.. !

But what's with the strange dances nowadays?? :P
To be honest..
It doesn't match Jim Carrey's dancing whatsoever :P



Put your hands up in the air!

Would I work at the Whale Museum?

 Y? to the es!


YESS off course I am willingly to work at the next best thing (besides Disneyland to be honest)

This ad came up from nowhere on my facebookfeed just yesterday:


Want to work at the whale museum? Yes please! Although just one difficulty will be unhandy.. I'm not that close to you guys.. would it be any problem?  It's not really that far...


But I clicked immediatly, cos common.. that gorgeous wall is just a giveaway right? Who wouldn't have this on his/her wall at home? MEWANT...

So why not make a little promotion for this beautiful Museum.. located at San Juan (Island), Washington USA. But still very close to 'Victoria' of Vancouver Island.



Their website:

https://whalemuseum.org/ 

The Whale Museum, located in beautiful Friday Harbor, Washington, opened to the public in 1979 as the first museum in the country devoted to a species living in the wild. Today, our museum continues to promote stewardship of whales and the Salish Sea ecosystem through education and research. Help support the Southern Resident orcas by making a donation, adopting an orca, or becoming a member of The Whale Museum. Or, simply pay us a visit! Our Gallery of Whales is a great way for individuals, students and families to receive a personal introduction to the whales of the Pacific Northwest.

Official website of San Juan visitors bureau..

 https://www.visitsanjuans.com/a-visit-to-the-whale-museum

This really looks very interesting, I would visit this in a hartbeat! (and plunder that cute little store)

ANd just look at their beautiful webshop.. love it! Maybe I'll be coming back for that adoption i want to try out for ages now..

But hey.. i'm quite fair to think i'll be never ever going up there. but hey.. i still believe in magic (and lost causes)

Hope you find your new staff soon! But with this sight, the applicants will be standing in rows! 


Just look at this sight.. it's giving me the -lets-do-it-vibe... and goosebumps too :P

A happy New year! (maybe)

 Hi!!


Netflix and Disney+ in the new year?? Yes please!! :) 

Between Christmas and the new year.. a bit of binge-ing.. oh yes.

I found out about this cool show on Netflix:

Big Mouth and it's spin-of Human Resources!

And yes they are quite funny. Although a tiny bit explicit, this is no regular cartoon.. There is a high level of profanity (but i'm cool with that, I am already a grown up - aren't I?) and there is also a lot of pussy, cum and dicks (a whole lot of) :P.. but who is interested in that!?

I tend to like Human resources quite much.

The idea of having a 'hormone' monster is very much appealing to me, (why not?) I think it's very original and not even that far' fetched it to be actually true.. cos, don't we all have some kind of (hormone) monster in all of us?? 

At one point it even reminded me of Disney's: Inside out.. (you remember?) with the characters of Joy, Anger, Disgust, Fear and Sadness'..? but more or less like.. it's evolving state. Like in one point we all age and go through more then one emotion to control our lives..(and yes, puberty hits so much harder these days)


A.. Yes.. kuddos to Nick Krolls team.. Well done! Really.. Never even heard of the guy and now he pops up everywhere! (What we do in the shadows hé??) But héy, it's quite fantastical really. Good job, it's a gift to bring emotions in much more of this visual state, than you are quite more aware of them I think?

A little on the side: 

From wiki off course:

Big Mouth is an American adult animated coming-of-age sitcom created by Andrew GoldbergNick KrollMark Levin, and Jennifer Flackett provided by Netflix. The series centers on teens based on Kroll and Goldberg's upbringing in suburban New York, with Kroll voicing his fictional younger self. Big Mouth explores puberty while embracing a frankness about the human body and sex.[1]

The first season, consisting of ten episodes, premiered on Netflix on September 29, 2017, and the second season was released on October 5, 2018. The third season was preceded by a Valentine's Day special episode on February 8, 2019, and the rest of the third season was released on October 4, 2019. In July 2019, Netflix renewed the series through to a sixth season. The fourth season was released on December 4, 2020, and the fifth season was released on November 5, 2021. The sixth season premiered on October 28, 2022. A seventh season was ordered in April 2022.

Upon its release, the series received critical acclaim, with praise going to the writing, animation, voice acting, musical numbers, humor, and emboldening messages of acceptance.

Human Resources is an American adult animated sitcom that serves as a spin-off and subseries to Big Mouth, centering around the workplace of the Hormone Monsters depicted in the series. Created by Kelly Galuska, Nick KrollAndrew GoldbergMark Levin, and Jennifer Flackett for Netflix, the spin-off series was announced in October 2019.[1] It premiered on March 18, 2022, and stars Aidy BryantRandall Park, and Keke Palmer.[2] The series has received positive reviews, and was renewed for a second season in April 2022.[3]

In the human resources world there is some 'monster' to EVERY emotion.. just like listed next.. clever he? :) How do they come up with this characters??

I tend to believe all these monsters reside inside of me too :D :) Now I can say.. my hormone monster is quite absent these days.. it's because i'm old or what??

and where the fuck is that ambition gremlin??!!

And that depression kitty is too close for my sake..... 


Taken from: https://bigmouth.fandom.com/wiki/Ambition_Gremlin 

The Ambition Gremlin represents the ambition of the humans. He believes more in success than feeling good. He has green skin, big ears, slicked-back dark green hair and violet eyes. He is a One-Time character and appeared in The Department Of Puberty. It is shown to be part of the group of people meeting at Jessi's evaluation along with the Intellect SphinxD.N.ApeAnxiety ArmadilloConnie and the Depression Kitty.


Lionel St. Swithens Is A Shame Wizard: where he proceeds to subject dozens of middle-schoolers to embarrassment and guilt. He derives immeasurable gratification from watching his victims suffer as a result of their behavior, regardless of whether they are shame-worthy. Human Resources plumbs the humiliating depths of Lionel's character through his interactions with other Shame Wizards, including his mother Rita. Interestingly, Lionel turns out to be a victim of his own personification, a fact that he simultaneously enjoys and abhors.


Kitty Dukakis & Cat Stevens Are Depression Kitties:The depression Kitty: is a monster that works in the depression division in the Monster World. She represents depression and makes her clients feel sad and unmotivated by working with them. She made a cameo at the end of "Smooch or Share" but didn't serve her first major role until "The Department of Puberty", she had a guest star in "The ASSes", and begins as one of the two secondary antagonists of Season 4 alongside Nick Starr


Tito Taylor Thomas Is An Anxiety Mosquito: this bothersome humming is perhaps the best symbolic representation of Anxiety on television. She emerges whenever an individual experiences slight jitters, transforming their otherwise insignificant worries into an avalanche of nervousness and uncertainty. Tito cannot imagine the light at the end of the tunnel; instead, she persuades her victims that hope is nothing more than an illusion. 

Pete Doheny Is A Logic Rock: It says it the best.. just common logic, nothing more, nothing less!


Emmy, Rochelle, Walter, & Sonia Are Lovebugs: 
Yup! again.. it's what it says! true love and stuff..



Maurice, Connie, Rick, Tyler, Gavin, Mona, Gil & Joe: The Hormone Monster is a hormone monster that represents male puberty. He assists teenage boys in going through puberty. He serves as the hormone monster to Andrew Glouberman and later on, Matthew MacDell. He embodies an adolescent male's constant sexual urges and desires as well as their rapidly changing emotions. Maury's job is to convince his clients to act on their pubescent urges but he often gets ignored due to some of his sexual suggestions being far too inappropriate, disgusting, or illegal.  Hormone Monsters are monsters that aid human beings as they go through puberty. Although they are mainly for teenagers going through regular puberty, there are other hormone monsters that assist adults people with adult versions of "puberty", such as menopause and impotence

Others include:
  Keith from Grief: Keith is a grief sweater who helps grieving people when they lose family members. He appeared in the episode "It's Almost Over", where he was assigned to help Amir with the impending loss of his mother. He is voiced by Henry Winkler.A hate worm: Rochelle is a hateful and spiteful little worm, who causes her clients to let their own feelings of anger dominate their behavior. She encourages people to act before thinking and be guided by their emotions rather than their rational thinking. She feeds off of the harmful and dangerous behavior of her clients, as it fuels her and causes her to grow bigger and stronger, which only makes her more powerful in her goals to piss off her clients and keep the mean cycle of hatred raging on.he Intellect Sphinx represents the intellectual abilities of humans. She has gold skin with wings to look like the Egyptian sphinx. She is planful and presents Depression Kitty as an alternative solution to Jessi's rapidly changing personality during the later episodes of Season 2.

Or the 'need demon'?


I just can't wait which characters there will be more off in the future?!

Have a very merry new year!
