It’s time to get wide, filly.
In ElectroKaplosion’s newest song released this month, Wide Filly, we learn about a little filly that is wide. If we look at the video, we get a picture of the filly the song describes – perhaps even the wide filly herself, which pops in and out of the video at different times after the “play” button (which is not only not a button but actually an illusion of color created by the pixels on your computer screen) on your computer monitor is pressed by using your PC mouse to double-click after plugging it in. It appears that the wide filly can also roll across the screen, despite her wideness. This is remarkable because when you think of rolling, you think of circles – not ovals. (Maybe this song should be called, “Silly Filly,” not “Wide Filly.”)
As “Wide Filly” – if that is this little filly’s actual name – is closer to an ellipse in terms of circles, we would expect Wide Filly to maybe roll once (or even two or three times) and then stop. Yet, they are confirmed to have rolled at least twice all the way across the wide screen monitor and into the green acres as of the time of me writing this sentence. (Since completion, it has since been confirmed that Wide Filly has rolled innumerable times across my and only my computer screen.) The song, however, doesn’t explain how this is possible (the rolling – not the solipsistic worldview implied by my previous comments, which I do not have).
But if we listen closely to the melody, there may be some clues. The song, “Wide Filly,” does mention that this particular wide filly (and perhaps even all wide fillies) does/do have a heart of gold, so this might have something to do with exactly how this little filly can roll so much.
