(22:44:52) Josh: life is such a never ending wheel
(22:44:55) Josh: i just can't believe it
(22:45:16) Jesse: it's so true
(22:45:20) Jesse: I mean, you know he's clean
(22:45:27) Josh: i don't understand that part
(22:45:32) Jesse: nobody does
(22:45:35) Josh: i don't understand the link between diver and tiger
(22:45:53) Jesse: I don't see how visible stripes modifies the cleanliness attribute of a tiger
(22:45:56) Jesse: neither does anybody i've asked.
(22:46:03) Josh: hahaha
(22:46:39) Josh: well i don't understand how this holy diver survived staying in the midnight sea so long. is it an aquatic creature? in that case, the diver and the tiger must be separate entities
(22:47:05) Jesse: 'midnight sea' could be a metaphor for the night
(22:47:23) Josh: but then what is the diving a metaphor for
(22:47:26) Josh: in relation to night
(22:47:30) Josh: because tigers hunt in the day
(22:47:31) Jesse: you know, heading out into the darkness...holy...
(22:47:35) Jesse: light vs. dark
(22:47:41) Josh: yeah
(22:47:51) Josh: but tigers aren't an embodiment of either light or dark
(22:47:54) Jesse: well, he needs a steed. And what animal is better suited for riding then a tiger?
(22:48:10) Josh: who needs a steed
(22:48:11) Josh: dio?
(22:48:13) Josh: or the diver?
(22:48:17) Jesse: the diver
(22:48:23) Jesse: it could be a demon tiger
(22:48:29) Jesse: and riding is symbolic of defeat
(22:48:33) Jesse: or maybe i'm looking into this too much
(22:48:37) Josh: well
(22:48:38) Josh: i don't get it
(22:48:43) Jesse: I know
(22:48:45) Jesse: i'll ask the internets
(22:48:52) Josh: all the diving and tigers just doesn't link up
(22:49:02) Josh: and then the bridge brings in the arbitrary theme of truth
(22:49:03) Josh: and wheels
(22:49:12) Jesse: no results at all
(22:49:16) Jesse: I should write an essay
(22:49:22) Jesse: Symbolism In "Holy Diver"
