Mess at the OP, this is the full tea:
Quote:
According to Hello Kitty scholar Christine R. Yano (who wrote a book about Hello Kitty), the cat we know and love is . . . not a cat. “Hello Kitty is not a cat,” Yang says. “She's a cartoon character. She is a little girl. She is a friend. But she is not a cat. She's never depicted on all fours. She walks and sits like a two-legged creature. She does have a pet cat of her own, however, and it's called Charmmy Kitty.”
So, if Kitty isn’t a cat, what is she? Apparently, according to Yano, her name is “Kitty White,” and she is the daughter of George and Mary White. "She has a twin sister,” Yano says. “She's a perpetual third-grader. She lives outside of London. I could go on. A lot of people don't know the story and a lot don't care. But it's interesting because Hello Kitty emerged in the 1970s, when the Japanese and Japanese women were into Britain. They loved the idea of Britain. It represented the quintessential idealized childhood, almost like a white picket fence. So the biography was created exactly for the tastes of that time."
Yes, Hello Kitty is a third-grade HUMAN girl who can NEVER PROGRESS PAST THIRD GRADE, and who has a mysterious twin sister, whom she may or may not have murdered (we are going to presume the twin's name was Goodbye Kitty). And she lives, not in Japan, but in Britain. We don’t know about you, but we are leaving work right now in shock, horror, and protest. We would ask Hello Kitty for comment, but she doesn’t have a mouth.
