The Dump Hosts a Guest

by Kaliri

I am truly honored to have accepted a kind invitation to guest post on the blog. This website is one of the most important of it’s kind (whatever that may be.) It’s a true to testament to random literature and uncompromising journalism. The fascinating topics covered on this website by head writers Mink and Zev leave me thirsting for even more arbitrary information. That being said, I couldn’t think of an arbitrary topic funny or important enough to write about. So, I figured I’d just make fun of Zev and Mink.

On that note, I’d like to start by unofficially renaming this site “Minky and The Brain”, one is a genius and the other is clearly insane. Let’s take a look at the similarities between “Pinky and the Brain” and ”Minky and the Brain.”

“Pinky and the Brain” was a popular segment of the cartoon show Anamaniacs. It depicted two lab mice: Pinky was a comical English mouse that was completely insane. He was the taller of the two, and was quite clumsy. He was partnered with The Brain, a brilliant yet very dark and disturbed mouse. The brain was shorter, with a tremendous head and mouse shoulders. The Brain had one mission in life, and that was to take over the world.

Their missions generally failed, due to the fact that The Brain would almost always rely on Pinky to complete the most significant part of his brilliantly intricate plans. Pinky was inept, and incapable of following through on The Brain’s plans. As smart as he was, the Brain never seemed to learn that Pinky couldn’t come through for him. Or it could just be that fact that he had no one else (sound familiar yet, Zev and Mink?)

“Minky and the Brain”, are two popular guys who grew up in the nineties, they star in their own real life roles as simply Maniacs. Mink(y) can be compared to Pinky in many ways. Much like Pinky, Minky is tall and lanky, a bit clumsy as well. He too has been deemed insane by many observers. Pinky had a bizarre English accent; Minky too has a strange accent and bizarre way with words. He too has been deemed inept by all academia. But much like Pinky, he is a lovable character.

Zev (The brain) is very similar to The Brain. They are physically almost a perfect match. Zev is the shorter of the two, and he too has an unusually large head and football player like shoulders (possibly to house his large brain, or just globs of cheese from all of the pizza he eats.) The Brain’s mission was to take over the world and anyone that knows Zev understands that he too shares this same desire: trying to take over the world one person at a time, becoming loved by all, one mock trial club at a time.

What Zev and Mink don’t realize is that they too are just mice in “relation” to the rest of the world. History has a tendency of repeating itself, why not learn from the painful mistakes of those two lovable mice? This website may attract many readers, but Zev, C’MON, global domination? Minky, You gonna let Zev post more homosexual images of the two of you to carry out his plan?

I wish the two of you the best of luck, and I commend your very funny efforts. My point is, the two of you should continue to enjoy the popularity this site brings you, and be proud of the exposure that you are giving arbitrary issues that might otherwise go unnoticed. Good luck and watch out for traps!
