Mannequin Info Point
What? You just entered a mannequin info point. Source of information about non-organic humanoid creatures and a place for their worship. Here we chill with true mannequins and similar beings, hate on stupid clankers and only listen to REAL CRASH TEST MUSIC.
Who? A mannequin is a human-like figure that's usually used to display clothing in a store. A dummy is a type of doll that looks like a person. Entertainers called ventriloquists can make dummies appear to talk. A crash test dummy is an anthropomorphic mannequin designed to be used for experiments in vehicle collisions, to see the effects on human occupants.
5 stages of mannequinism
| Oh No! | Sneaking around an old warehouse you get cursed and become a mannequin. Unable to move, speak or see you think to yourself: Oh No! Not again :( What have I become this time? A mannequin in a store? A scarecrow? A crash test dummy? |
|---|---|
| Memory Loss | You don't have much time to think about the options, as you realize how all of your memories and senses start to slowly fade away. You still know that something's wrong, but you can't grasp it clearly anymore. |
| Dummy Time | Still a bit dizzy and disoriented about your new physical and mental state you start to like your new form of appearance. Full realization hits and you notice the car you're sitting in, rushing towards a wall. A dream has finally come true. You're a crash test dummy - IT'S DUMMY TIME!!! |
| Boneless | Crash, hit, collision, impact. That's your new life. Each hit against the wall in one of the countless cars you drove to death feels like a drug. And it's so fucking addictive. Often, you remember your human days with bones in your body. You can't break a bone if you don't have any! That's really cool. But being so stiff all the time starts getting on your nerves. |
| Atchiuuu | You're sitting in a brand new car, ready to hit the wall, as always. You can't stop, it just feels so nice. But this time, right before your dummy friends start the car, you feel something in your nose. The feeling grows bigger and suddenly - you sneeze and sneeze and let everything out you couldn't as a dummy. You haven't sneezed in a very very long time!!? You also don't feel stiff anymore. And you're overwhelmed by sensory impressions you had long forgotten. The curse is over - you're human again. But that's not a problem. You will be the first human crash test dummy in history. |
Mannequin of the Day
Kinds of mannequins and puppets
Suddenly became a mannequin? Tips and tricks:
- Wait until your senses return. Not being able to see, feel, speak or hear after your metamotphosis is normal. Mostly, it takes a day or two until you can perceive your surroundings again.
- Feel your new body and brain. The mannequin experience is strange, but fun. You will feel better if you won't try to repress your nature, pay attention to your newly aquired strengths.
- Do stuff you couldn't do previously. Became a scarecrow? Start speaking to the birds. Became a mannequin in an extravagant store? Wear the most expensive dresses for free, all the time. Became a puppet used for witchcraft? Curse your enemies.
- Meet likeminded mannequins and organize. If all mannequins in a department store unite, we can take over the whole building and create our own space.
- Prank people as much as you can. Startle them when they're window shopping. Stand right behind them when they are leaving the store. In a crash test, don't drive the car directly towards the wall - pretend to run over your grumpy boss.
How to behave in a crash test?
For the most powerful and authentic experience it is important to not wear a seat belt. Use the crunchiest car you can find and the hardest wall around. Drive as fast as you can. Be dramatic when you hit the wall. If you bump your head against the front window - great. If you fly through the front window like a rocket - fantastic. Make a scene. If you're new to crash testing forget all your fears - You're a crash test dummy, after all! This is exactly what you've been made for and the only thing that will truly make you feel alive . Crash tests were invented as a service for humans and it was us who had to work without pay to test cars for their fragile bodies. But that was a long time ago. We have completely reclaimed crash tests. People do skateboarding, we do crash testing. It has become our subculture, our sport, our lifestyle! So don't worry and enjoy the crashes :)
