Cthulhu is actually Lovecraft’s vision of an alien: something we (humans) wouldn’t find appealing, and that has a mind the likes of which we could not understand, it would drive us insane. for example, we are Cthulhunid to an ant.
Mental image of Joyce cruising down the highway on her Vespa, wearing wraparound sunglasses and a leather jacket over her blouse and sweater vest, blasting Petra.
Y’know, I actually have vague memories about going to some bible camp as a kid and there was a song about God having a moterbike. I could be nuts though.

I Want To Ride It Where I Like
I swear, if you imagine someone in real life saying half the things Joyce says, there’s a major creep factor, particularly if that person is constantly smiling and staring at you with big eyes.
And was Joyce hoping to be able to ride on the bike too? I’m imagining all three girls mounted on that this, and if I were straight, it would probably be somewhat arousing.
I know some people like her from church. Always saying weird campy things like that. Rallying up the spirits. Try and get you involved in their bizarre activities they come up with just to figure out how to spend the day wholesomely. Never stops smiling.
Maybe it’s just because I was raised among them but it doesn’t really come across as creepy at all imo. Pretty standard fair. She didn’t get to bring all her disney movies and has no one to play obscure board games with and there’s only so many ways one can praise the lord in a day. It’s either start brewing up some twilight fanfics and finding wholesome subjects to sing about or start exposing herself to the dangers of the secular media, and we wouldn’t want that. Gotta keep the mind busy somehow. An idle mind wanders into the devils playground and whatnot. She could find herself thinking about boys in improper ways or get curious about punk rock and then who knows what would happen? Why she might walk to school the next day with piercings everywhere, dressed in skimpy leather with her hair in green spikes and just start kissing every boy on the campus, and then the devil pretty much owns her ass.
Logic puzzles are the best way to keep your mind busy. And what do you have against punks and goths. They are some of the nicest people you could every meet.
Just a humorous examination of the mentality. I don’t actually have anything against either group, but I also don’t feel that a temptation to listen to a couple punk rock songs is likely to have the night culminate in getting sixteen piercings, buying a new wardrobe and some hair products so you can go to school the next day in such a state.
Also a bit of a jibe at Joyce in the implication that she’d view kissing a bunch of boys as “Succumbing to the desires of the flesh”, and the notion that she’d just be dressed like this running around kissing boys systematically before moving on to the next one is supposed to imply that she wouldn’t actually be acting like anything real but rather her misinformed notion of what someone who has “strayed from the path of God” and accepted punk rock and lust into their lives would look like.
Also I just think it’s really hilarious to picture Joyce dressed like that doing the “Rock Out” symbol with her hand and razzing random people in the halls.
The devil owning her ass is supposed to create a mental image of Joyce dressed as such in compromising positions with Satan in hell, which is in my head just satirical of the entire notion of youthful music forming the path to hell.
It’s also intentionally an outdated “New Rock and Roll”. I’m sure a lot of our parents enjoyed punk rock too when they were young or perhaps still today. Not really the most offensive thing on the market anymore. Pointing out how sheltered Joyce is. Exaggerating it to the point that she quite likely hasn’t heard of anything that’s happened in the music industry outside of Christian Rock since the eighties. Still viewing The Ramones as a new sensationalist devil music of sorts.
“Punk is nothing but Death and Crime and the Rage of a Beast!”
Figure walking to the bike/parking/the ride takes 5 minutes. That means walking is 20 minutes. That’s probably a mile, since Billie wouldn’t jog. Many motorcycles get ~60 MPG. Call it $3.60 a gallon for gas. Sal’s wasting 6 cents. Not even worth worrying about.
That’s even assuming Sal wasn’t going to ride it in that direction anyway. She obviously doesn’t have another class for a while – who’s to say she wasn’t going off campus for some reason regardless?
I don’t want a pickle
Just want to ride on my motorsickle
And I don’t want a tickle
‘Cause I’d rather ride on my motorsickle
And I don’t want to die
Just want to ride on my motorcy…cle
It’s better than having ‘Alice’s Resturant’ stuck in your head, I assure you. ‘The Motorcycle Song (The Significance of a Pickle)’ is a much better choice.
((OH GOD, I’m only seventeen, WHY DO I KNOW THIS???))
I know at least one of these Theme Songs will go Jesus ride the bike abroad, Hallelujah, Jesus ride the bike abroad…
A variant may be I was born to preach and pray, everything I need (yus)/ I was born with my forehead down, I was built for Jesus.
Or the all time classic: Motorbike/ It’s how I live my life/ I can’t take it if I cannot pray/ Motorbike/ My sign of living chaste/ It’s going to take your breath away! – Don’t stop for nothing, it’s Jesus or nothing!
Never underestimate the unbound creativity of a Chrisitan mind.
I was thinking The lord is my motorcycle
I shall not want…
Maybe even I’m special because
God has loved me for he gave
The best thing that he had to save me
His own motorcycle
Cool I really want one too
For all the good things I have done…
Very nice… sadly, I don’t know many gospel songs myself, since it’s been hell of a while since I last came in contact with church and got rid of most of my memories thereof.
My parents understood quite soon that taking me to church isn’t the best of ideas. I just don’t get the vibe of it. I almost laughed out loud at a relative’s funeral because the preacher said something like “Jesus loves all of his sheep and won’t let them stray”. (It’s weird how many zoophiliac references are in the bible if you think about it.)
I love that despite their fight earlier, Joyce and Walky still are getting along pretty well. That Mountain Dew mixture from earlier must have really broken the ice!

Must. Hear. Theme Songs!
Yes, must hear all 30 theme songs.
She’s probably exaggerating. It’s probably only five.
This is Joyce.
Point.
With epic guitar solos.
“Songs About Sal’s MC – The Theme CD, featuring Joyce, Walky and (by blackmail) Billie.”
Some thing humanity was not meant to know ( or in this case hear).
Like what? The voice of Cthulhu?
More like Justin Bieber.
…and Uwe Bull.
Eezts Uwe Boll, and hee’s thee only Genius in the Fucking Bizeness!
Hey, you never know, Cthulhu could have a great singing voice! Of course, the only song he knows is the song that ends the Earth.
Cthulhu is actually Lovecraft’s vision of an alien: something we (humans) wouldn’t find appealing, and that has a mind the likes of which we could not understand, it would drive us insane. for example, we are Cthulhunid to an ant.
what i meant is, it wouldn’t actually destroy the earth, that would be us after the mass-insanity
That always happens to the ants in my garden.
30 Theme Songs? Obsessive much Joyce?
More like creative. 30 theme songs about motorcycles, that must take a lot of time and effort to do.
Hence the obsessive part.
Yeah but it’s about a cool motorcycle, who wouldn’t write a song about it?
This is joyce we’re talking about.
Yeah, they probably all have some underlying Christian theme.
“I’m a good Christian girl / to the end of my days / feel the power of Christ / throbbin’ ‘tween my legs.”
….
So, it’s christian Erotica?
Aaaaaa that’s terrible! It doesn’t even rhyme.
You’re assuming she doesn’t just change around a few words and notes.
That might be assuming to much.
It’s really just two theme songs with fifteen verses each.
Billie really doesn’t hate the motorcycle she is jealous of it though.
*imagining Billie pressing her assets into Sal’s back as the vibrations of the engine tingle their neither regions*
*drool*
And I don’t think I need to mention which part of Sal Billie might be needing to cup onto to stay on the bike as it is moving.
Her stomach?
Most people would be hugging her stomach.
but of cause… where else could I possibly be thinking of…
Shoulders?
The neck?
The neck would probably be a really dangerous place to hold on to. It is utterly irresponsible. What were you thinking?
Many bikes have grab rails, too. You can also get grab belts. Which option is preferred depends on the individuals concerned.
You icon… makes that all the more epic… Like Sal is trying to derail the Billie-Sal shipping XD
Now that you point it out… yeah. Especially with the grumpy expression :D.
That’s a pretty apt icon, too.
Only if We can also imagine Mike and Ethan are dating in this universe.
Some of these songs are entire verses of the word “VROOM” sung over and over, I would assume.
That actually makes sense, I can totally see Joyce doing that.
Vroom vroom vroom vroom.
Vroom vroom vroom.
Vroom vroom vroom vroom.
Vroom vroom vroom.
Am I mistaken or are you doing this to the rythm of Private S. Baldrick’s epic war poem, ‘The German Guns’?
And here I was worried that no-one would get the reference.
…Joyce is so a closet homosexual in this verse.
I was think bisexual.
bikesexual?
Are you bikesexual today?
Next: Joyce gets a motorcycle of her own, but it’s a pink Vespa.
don’t knock the vespa, it was in FLCL.
Mental image of Joyce cruising down the highway on her Vespa, wearing wraparound sunglasses and a leather jacket over her blouse and sweater vest, blasting Petra.
30 songs about a motorcycle?? Christian songs no doubt. What’s next? A fan fic where Psalty and Co meet a singing motorcycle?
Y’know, I actually have vague memories about going to some bible camp as a kid and there was a song about God having a moterbike. I could be nuts though.
You or the other kid.
The nerd in me wants one of those songs to be cheesy lyrics added to the Thundertank theme ^_^
God I’m gonna hate myself for this…
…but I came to this comment section, and I need to deliver this message…
College Girls on Motorcycles!!
COLLEGE GIRLS ON MOTORCYCLES?!
Yes, COLLEGE GIRLS ON MOTORCYCLES!
College girls on motorbikes!
COLLEGE GIRLS ON MOTORBIKES! <-Shade743 Fail
God darn it! Got beaten to it…
30 theme songs, Joyce? MUST. HEAR.

4 out of 10.
Come on, a Queen homage deserves better than 4. Give it a 7.
No, a Queen homage deserves an 8 or more.
Is that the title or is it the lyrics?
Here’s the song, right here, for those who are confused: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8XXS1v2TNQ
I don’t want a pickle
I just wanna ride my motorcycle.
And I don’t waahnah diiiie
I just wanna ride my motor cy.cle
Walky and Joyce are like brother and sister.
In that they bicker and fight right up to the moment they share a common goal.
I swear, if you imagine someone in real life saying half the things Joyce says, there’s a major creep factor, particularly if that person is constantly smiling and staring at you with big eyes.
And was Joyce hoping to be able to ride on the bike too? I’m imagining all three girls mounted on that this, and if I were straight, it would probably be somewhat arousing.
The creeper vibe is exactly why Billie gets to ride the bike, she doesn’t have it.
She just has a crazy vibe :D.
I’d say more of an angry vibe. And Sal can identify with that.
I know some people like her from church. Always saying weird campy things like that. Rallying up the spirits. Try and get you involved in their bizarre activities they come up with just to figure out how to spend the day wholesomely. Never stops smiling.

“Punk is nothing but Death and Crime and the Rage of a Beast!”
This. Strip. Is. Awesome.
Awww, Joyce and Walky are bonding already. Not really. But they certainly get stuck together a lot.
How long does it take to walk to their dorm from the classroom? And they’re going to ride a motorcycle to save 15 minutes? Really? Wasteful much?
Figure walking to the bike/parking/the ride takes 5 minutes. That means walking is 20 minutes. That’s probably a mile, since Billie wouldn’t jog. Many motorcycles get ~60 MPG. Call it $3.60 a gallon for gas. Sal’s wasting 6 cents. Not even worth worrying about.

no, i think she will take billie to the RA with the signed agreement. sal is a man of her word.
Sal is a “woman of her word”.
Sal is a man of her word
Pre-op or post-op.
I feel like there’s hope for Joyce. She’s got a rebellious streak a mile wide in her. Maybe some day she could be a …. liberal.
I don’t want a pickle
Just want to ride on my motorsickle

– Arlo Guthrie, The Motorcycle Song
Yes, I am that old.
It’s better than having ‘Alice’s Resturant’ stuck in your head, I assure you. ‘The Motorcycle Song (The Significance of a Pickle)’ is a much better choice.
((OH GOD, I’m only seventeen, WHY DO I KNOW THIS???))
Why is it that simply reading “having ‘Alice’s Restaurant’ stuck in your head” is enough to get “Alice’s Restaurant” stuck in my head? Why?
((ALSO YES I am only 21 so I am right with you on the WHYYYY bit.))
No why here. I’m… well, older than 21.
it’s because you had a proper upbringing
In the 1960s.
I know at least one of these Theme Songs will go Jesus ride the bike abroad, Hallelujah, Jesus ride the bike abroad…
A variant may be I was born to preach and pray, everything I need (yus)/ I was born with my forehead down, I was built for Jesus.
Or the all time classic: Motorbike/ It’s how I live my life/ I can’t take it if I cannot pray/ Motorbike/ My sign of living chaste/ It’s going to take your breath away! – Don’t stop for nothing, it’s Jesus or nothing!

(It’s weird how many zoophiliac references are in the bible if you think about it.)
My actual, physical reaction on reading Joyce’s final line was to double over like I’d been punched in the gut, and then start giggling like crazy.
And then I thought: “But will she sing the theme toons?”
I can lead my own life
There’s no love, no love left here
Master of disguise
I’ve been in your sky and you weren’t there
A motorcycle man
And Jesus was his name
He’s out on His ride
Believe in Him and never die
Beardfish “Roullete” Psichedelic/Space Rock
I am sensing impending doom as in the horizon look oh my god no it can’t be yes it is oh god Sal’s Bike the Musical! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!!!
These are the actual lyrics.
I vote for the motorcycle getting its own hashtag. It is a recurring character.
She probably just did a Seal, and made remixes of the same three songs ten times.
To be fair, if I had a motorcycle, I would be singing my theme song every place I went.
If I had a motorcycle, I’d just turn up the radio and play my theme song.
It would probably be “Confusion” by Alice in Chains.
“Ride, ride, ride, let it ride!”
I love that despite their fight earlier, Joyce and Walky still are getting along pretty well. That Mountain Dew mixture from earlier must have really broken the ice!
I guess everybody loves a bad girl, even Joyce.

i would LOVE to hear Joyce’s theme songs for the bike
A few likely candidates:

Try writing thirty more, Joyce. That oughta do the trick.
How many of the theme songs were filled with Bible verses?
