Recent trends in comics fandom (and elsewhere) have been provoking my feminist rage pretty frequently, and I've been increasingly aware of my need for an icon that can express my feeling of GRARRR at such times.
Then Te and I watched a Robot Chicken rerun -- the one with the Santa Claus murder mystery, and the digression, "You ever see a yeti with a dozen condoms of coke burst in his belly?" The ensuing rampage inspired me to say, "that! That's what I need for my growly rage icon..."
Happily, some other [adult swim] fan put the digression segment of the Claus sketch up on YouTube, meaning both that ( you can watch it here (behind the cut) ) and that I was able to screencap the yeti wreaking havoc for iconnage purposes. Alt + PrntScrn is your friend and mine.
( Let the yeti express your rage! In icon form! )
For those who might question the appropriateness of a yeti as spokesicon of *feminist* rage, I have three points to make: first, that the yeti in question clearly has breasts (#6 provides the best view); second, that drug mules around the world are predominantly female, and there's no reason to presume that trend would change north of the arctic circle, despite that elf's pronoun slip; third and finally, feminism (and by extension feminist rage) isn't just for women.
