Why nursery rhymes were so dark, yet amusing....

[AUSTIN316426808]

Nursery rhymes and fairy tales were made up as lessons for children. And the best way to get a kid to listen is scare the hell out of 'em. There's also some that are just derived from dark folklores.

Those plastic surgery shows are ADDICTIVE

[crippler666]

While searching online recently, I came across a picture of one of the Jack The Ripper murders.

I had seen the picture of Marie Jeanette Kelly's body before, but this picture had a red hue to it (don't know if it was done now or then or even if it has just turned that color with age), but it really changed the picture.

You could see bone and stuff that had always been there, but I had never noticed before...

The picture is towards the bottom.

All early nursery rhymes was written to scare kids.

Snow White, Little Red Riding Hood and Hansel & Gretal all died viciously.

I just wonder, would they have an effect on children now?

As Austin said: Love

Being touched by a man. Even my dad giving me a little hug freaks me out. O 'course I would never tell him that; it'd hurt his feelings. Goddamn C and D. (C and D- initials)

Organized religion disturbs the hell out of me.

Eating meat disturbs me, but it's drug habbit I haven't been able to break for very long.

Some people on this board disturb me.

I thought we had to do things that were disturbing AND fascinating...

[Haunted]

All right. Fine. I didn't pay attention to the rules.

I find YOU, Sam, disturbing yet fascinating. I'm disturbed that one of your age could be so cynical, yet so was I at an earlier age. What's disturbing about that, is that youth should not cause such darker feelings in us. However, other people play a role in our upbringing.

You're fascinating because you're SO intelligent.

There. Happy now?:)

Fairy tales= Snow White, Little red ridding hood, Hansel and Gretal ec. ect.

They used to be alot darker than the wayyyyyyy watered down Disney versions they've become today.

They were used to scare kids into acting right. And some were just dark folklores.

[ItsAlive75]

In the original Hunchback of Notre Dame, he and the girl were both hunted down and killed at the end.

... but it still had those lovable singing gargoyles.

So how did the real "Hans and Gretel" end? :(


i remember recoding my own fucked up version of it on a tape recorder when i was 4. It had several versions of the ending. 1st version: Dad greets them and says "mom is dead". 2nd: Dad greets them and says "Grandma is dead". 3rd: Dad greets them and says "Grandpa is dead".

Wonder why i bothered??:confused: :rolleyes:



Never strucked me as scary though?

I honestly couldn't accurately tell ya, it's been a long time since I've read any of 'em. I remember what I've told you because I did a project on it in high school.

Well, im pretty sure they manage to burn the witch in her owen and escape the pancake house. And then when they get home their dad greets them in the door way and tells them that mom is dead, for some reason?:rolleyes:

Do you think their mom was the witch?

Thats would be fucking deep for a childrens story. Almost Asianish.:D

Almost Asianish.:D The stepmother was the one that wanted the dad to send the children off into the woods to get lost...She told their dad that they couldn't afford to keep them, and didn't have enough food to feed everyone, so they had to get rid of the kids...Remember?

Nope, it didn't happen like that! It actually exploded into pieces on the floor...I imagine that having it explode in your hand was quite traumatizing though! :p ;)

The witch only wanted to eat the children...Although, in SOME variations of the story, the stepmother was BOTH...But, in those renditions, the kids didn't kill her when they got home, cuz they had already killed her in the oven...So, when they got home, the dad was all alone...

At first, when they sent off the kids, the stepmom was crying, telling the dad that they had no choice, and that the kids might be found and adopted by someone that could feed them...She acted like it was the best thing to do for the kids...She even convinced the dad that if he REALLY loved his kids, he would do this for them, because he truly could not feed them, and didn't want to see them starve...

He knew something wasn't right when the kids came back, and the stepmom was majorly pissed and flew into a rage...

Are you seldomly happy because you're sad a lot, or are you seldomly happy because you want to find inner calm and balance the waters of your sublime consciousness?

yes

[Haunted]

Then you're right on track. Just don't let any sadness overrun your sublime consciousness. Keep the sorrow in it's place. It helps you remember the four Nobles, and once you've got the hang of that, you can negate suffering.
