The Four Houses of The School For Bimbos - Bimboland History Part I
Sindy Laarson and The Fshionable Republic of Ximboland: Ch 30 pg 169-70
‘As you will all be aware,’ The
Pink Bimbo proceeded, speaking into this golden glow with a weighty sense
of ceremony,
‘The Bimbo Chest
contains four sacred Bimbo artefacts, each artefact beyond
value to one of our school’s four houses.’
‘The Golden Hymenopter’ – and at this Tad lifted out from the chest what appeared to be a giant yellow bumble bee and placed it on the table-cum-altar – ‘so sacred to The Wasps;
The Acid Tongue’ – he took out a sculpted silver tongue with a silvery slice of lemon balanced on its tip – ‘ so symbolic of the acerbic wit of The Meanieheadz;
The Marble Lovers so precious to The Slagz,’ – he took out a Rodin-like marble statuette of a naked couple, although this intertwined Himbo and Bimbo appeared way more physically enhanced than the Rodin original – ‘and
The Double Helix so symbolic of the
important scientific research of The Nerdz’ – finally he took out a
platinum model of parallel helices that took me back with a shudder to the
Institute at Ingenstans, where my parents had met all those years ago and
unknowingly set into motion my own incredible story.
I looked down at these four sacred objects in a state approaching something akin to awe.
Each object was so steeped not only in
the history of the school, but in Bimbo and Himbo history itself, and was
clearly talismanic of each house’s values:
The Wasps’ love of tradition and order;
The Meanieheadz’ devotion to Bimbo bitchery;
The Slagz’s love of….well, love, and
The Nerdz’s commitment to
legitimising and perfecting Bimboism itself.
‘Sindy,’ The Pink Bimbo intoned, resuming her narration while still gazing at these four sacred objects,
‘you have now passed a week at The School for Bimbos, being inducted into its ancient ways and familiarising yourself with the four houses that represent its constituent parts.
The time has now come for you to select one of these four houses as your Bimbo destiny, and to commit yourself forever to its Bimbo and Himbo values.’
