Pros & Cons
COMPARISON: Buying this rechargeable fan vs. entrapping a wind spirit
BUYING THIS FAN
Pros:
- Rechargeable
- Convenient
- Portable
- Great for at work, travel, yoga class, or wherever you need a little breeze
- Sounds relaxing
Cons:
- Takes time to recharge
- You can’t say, “Do my bidding,” without getting weird looks
- Cannot carry snacks to you on the breeze
- Sound is just fan noise, no songs
- Only a few speed settings
ENTRAPPING A WIND SPIRIT
Pros:
- You can say, “Do my bidding,” all you want
- Can make white noise or sing songs
- Will make wind of any strength or speed
- Can bring you snacks, or even will deliver bouquets of flowers and trinkets to potential lovers
Cons:
- Wind traps are very difficult to build (you have to bend the wisteria vines just so)
- Similarly, the incantation is very complicated and must be spoken through without a pause or stutter to work; can take up to thirty-five minutes to say it all
- Whenever it asks you questions, you have to consider if it really wants an answer, or if it’s just trying to trick you into saying the release incantation
- Its songs are very catchy, and you will find yourself singing them often, despite the fact the fact that they feature a lot of outdated (and outright offensive) language
