Where ordinary is extraordinary, in both the media genre and the real world.
Welcome to Slice of Life!
For anyone who appreciates art, music, TV Shows, or any media about ordinary things, or for anyone who likes overhearing conversations on the bus, or watching birds do their thing, you've come to the right place.
A few topics to get started:
- Why did I use a raven as our mascot? Because not only are they some of the smartest animals on earth, but they're just as much a part of our urban life as we humans are. Corvids also the subject of one of my favourite real-life "magic realism" stories: they give gifts to those who treat them kindly and feed them regularly. Just goes to show that life is truly something special for those ready to expect the unexpected.
- What are your favourite slice-of-life TV shows or similar, and why do you like them? Some of mine are Hey Arnold!, a cartoon about life in the inner-city USA, and Corner Gas, a show about rural Saskatchewan, Canada.
- If the subforum had a theme song, what would you suggest?
