As long as we’re going with the “girls and washing machines” theme, let’s run with Madalina Gehnea on one.

A source exists, but one so obnoxious on so many levels that I’m going to decline to give a link.

Animal testing produces some interesting mad science results. Here is a florescent kitty:

Found at the Fluffington Post. I’m pretty sure the story that accompanies the picture is a hoax, though.

Remind anyone of anything?

One might regret the recycling, but there are only so many tasteful images I can think of for this context.

After all the adventure, the dawn breaks, and Aloysius, who seems to have had some trouble sleeping (I wonder why) is there to greet it.

In celebration of that most peaceful time of day, a prairie scene set somewhere that would be not too far from Gnosis, if Gnosis were a real place.

The Korean dialog is pure Google translate, so don’t hold it against me too much if it’s actually gibberish — I think it’s meaning should be clear enough from context. I don’t know if it would be any consolation to Aloysius, but he’s at least not alone in fiction in having his life dicked with in undesirable ways by his parents.

The “woman wearing only a towel” is of course a classic trope, especially in advertising. Here is an example.

Found at the tumblr Vivat Vintage. I’m sure that the makers of Lifebuoy soap were mere trying merely to provide a thoughtful symbolic context for their hygienic product and not crassly attempting to exploit anything.

Focusing in, on this chapter’s appropriately-named splash page.
