sounds bad seventy2. :(
I showed my sister the song New Math by Bo Burnham and she was really offended. It was funny. Also I was on Super Smash Bros. Brawl and I found that one of the sound effects for the character Snake (Metal Gear Solid) is "Tasty." and you can make it sound like all the girls and Falco and Fox (Star Fox) are having vigorous sex and the other ones sound like child molestors or they're taking a really big dump.
And I did this till 12:30 last night.

Rant, Moan and Rave - 2010 edition
I have a new theory about why I haven't finished a new comic page in ages-
My pages have become too bloody complicated! It makes them difficult and therefore very boring to draw and colour. The worst parts are the mechas which are a very unusual shape with all sorts of little angles and vents and a complicated tiger patter colour scheme on one that takes ages to draw from all angles
I'm not sure how tha happened… why did i let things get so overdone? >___<
My theory is that I'm not filled with enough rage lately. Not that rage really had a whole lot to do with my motivation to actually make the page, it's just easier to be sarcastic and witty when you've got a good bone to pick with the world.
I have a major problem at work with a bunch of kids who think they're hot shit because they tag up the school and write their names everywhere though. It's my job to clean it all up, and I was pissed off after one long day of dealing with it a couple weeks ago, so I told one of them to grow up, stop acting like a toy and go tag something outside the school if he wanted to be a real writer. I know it was him despite his claim that he doesn't do that stuff, because lo and behold, the same tag I was talking about at that time has reappeared on my personal studio desk along with his two friends. I just went ahead and painted over it since the desk is already covered in paint, but it gives me satisfaction to know my accusation was close enough to the mark that they had the need to retaliate. Normally, I really wouldn't give a shit, but I'm tired of putting up with college freshmen who think they're amazing because they write their name on something. Apparently, nobody ever told them that you're supposed to learn that in elementary school.
I got out of going to church by telling my dad I didn't want the parishioners to think I had hickies on my face, cause of the bruises and all. It worked, but I still have to do my science project so I'm currently putting off doing that…
I'm not too good with relationship issues, especially other people's issues. I told her she was beautiful and demanded that she become my Arabian princess. Then I said something about having a nannerpuss penis. That's some poetic stuff, yo.So the bruises weren't the real reason you didn't go all the way. lol!
Dude, If I had a Nannerpuss penis I would never wear pants, ever.

Tagging is so bad in our city that we're actually mural capital of Canada - why? Because murals help deter vandals. There are some places downtown where nearly every building has a mural. Pretty cool, actually. Although a lot of them are not very good, since they're just done to keep away taggers.
But I guess people want to make their mark on the world and it's easier to destroy than to create. That's the only reason I can see to scrawl PEAR on everything in the city.

Unfortunately, here it doesn't help. The city is so against anything remotely related to graffiti that even murals have gotten a bad rap. So when people want to put up a mural, it takes months to get approval and even then you're limited to certain materials and censored on what you can put up. So a lot of people who want them just do it illegally and for some reason, people can sense when it's not a legitimate mural and just tag it more. I wish it could be like that here though. I'd love for this city to be covered in murals. It makes me want to move back to a city that's in such bad shape that nobody cares if you paint abandoned buildings.

How odd! I'm not sure how it happened, but every little restaurant or business downtown here seems to have a mural.
What seems to happen here sometimes is that one ne'er-do-well will go and write their name on a mural that's been there, untouched, for years, and after that other people follow. That happened recently with one of my favourite old murals downtown. :(
It's funny how those taggers still have some sort of guilt like that, though. There's a place near my home where there's a very thin space between two buildings: a bank and a church. The back of the bank has huge tags scrawled all over it, and the church, right beside it, only has one tiny blue "+".
I found a website about our murals, actually. http://www.themuralsofwinnipeg.com/

That's pretty much how it follows here. One name appears, then 20 pop up.
A lot of graf writers have a sort of code of conduct though. There's no set rules for behavior, but you usually don't tag over other people's stuff unless you can do better, or you want to start beef with them. Usually. Most have a hierarchy of what they're willing to tag. Some of them refuse to tag schools and churches, others will tag schools but not churches, and some of them will only paint on certain types of business' walls like corporations. Some people see it as a means of improving the neighborhood and will only paint abandoned or derelict buildings. Those are the ones I get along with. Those are the ones who lean towards being street artists more than graf writers because they usually don't just put their name up, and make artwork on the building. I have respect for them, not for the kids running around with sharpies scribbling on anything they can. When I grew up surrounded by graffiti culture as a kid, most younger writers usually adopted the behavior code of the older writers in the area and respected them. Today it's more a free-for-all I think.
I come from a relatively small town, I'm one of the only ones that does graffiti. You can see Kroatz everywhere. Most of my pieces were paid for though, people that wanted a nicer garden fence or a pretty wall.
That code of conduct doesn't really go with us though. every louzy-two-bit-fleabag-assmilk-farthead-barfshirt-nosepicking-wannabe tags all over my pieces. there's one that calls himself Dard. DARD come-on!
If anyone ever meets Dard… KILL HIM!
I'm pretty much against graffiti, most people just do it to rebel. and that just shows no respect for others.

You control that world; don't let that world control you. Loosen up, experiment…
Aw man…I was supposed to go to dinner at my mom's friend's house the other day but I just went home instead. Turns out said friend's 19-year-old son was waiting for my company. :(
Also, pretty sure Kevin McDonald has been staying in my sister's apartment building. Weird!
Oh wow, march 2010 is looking great/has been great so far:
tomorrow: FF13
March 14: Spring break! + pokemon Hg/Ss
March 26: how to train your dragon
I've also had someone to hang out with every single weekend for the past 3 months instead of sitting alone bored. I don't think i've been this happy since 2007.
Nostalgia is a dangerous trap!
For some reason I was thinking about my old highschool… so I Googled it. And there was a Facebook group with all these people posting on it. After reading some of the posts, the whole thing seemed a little sad and then I remembered how much I disliked that place… So why the F**k would I want to revel in old memories of it with people I have nothing in common with except they also went to school at a crappy school I didn't like much?
Insanity. -_-
…now my art school, that's a different story.
I hate my high school already ozone.
Didn't sleep that well last night. And now my teacher has made the due dateof out lab on thursday. I'm staying after for other stuff all week and DO NOT NEED THIS!!!
and I need to update. Sorry Pit_Face, JustNoPoint, and Byth1!!! I've been doing some pages but not too many and the manga style is hard to transfer into my own, JNP. It's really unfortunate since the characters are so beautifully drawn.
I feel like reading some comics I used to read. I haven't read anyhing in forever and would like to get back to doing that. So if I at one time read your comic you can go ahead and PQ me and I'm gonna try to frequently read it again.

So my computer got malware this past weekend. Complete pain in the ass and Symantec wasn't catching it. I downloaded another program which finally got rid of it, but now almost none of my files recognize themselves. Even my Drunkduck Alerter 'cannot be found'. The rest are seemingly there, but the extensions are broken or damaged. I can't access my scanner to do anything and I have no idea how to get Photoshop Elements working again. I'm already behind on my updates. At this rate, without some magic bullet, I'm going to have to delete and download everything again.
What a fantastic waste of time.
