Oolong and pop culture

<![CDATA[My special thanks to the student who put this image on his final exam:

It not only made me laugh (and who wouldn’t need that after my last post?) but I had to go look it up and discover the story of Oolong the rabbit, who balanced things on his head.

The student was answering a question about how pop culture signifies a need for change, and here was an internet meme which, while perhaps not expressing a need for change, was definitely pop culture. And, after grading a bunch of exams, a bunny with a dorayaki on his head was definitely what I needed!]]>
