Rant, moan, rave and share - for all your chatter, natter, and wildebeest needs

Posted at

Today I decided that I needed a journal comic (again). One that I can neglect and rarely update and when I do it'll be apologies for not updating in months.

Or at least that's my prediction.



I've also taken up an extremely large project with a very talented cat man (man of cat if you will), in the hopes that I can design something very interesting and awesome.

I think I can :).



Still working on writing that script for the voice contest or even better, my Drunk Duck song. Or even better, trying to revive my MS Paint community project, Paint Force Assemble.

Sadly, none are coming along easily. .__.



My friend went to see Spamalot. WITHOUT ME.

Jerk… -_-

My friend went to see Spamalot.
I saw that and loved it. We sat so close you could see the spit flying. Actually, a couple times we felt we had to duck - that, or get gobbed on. (eeww_)

I have 99% in my IB English course. :D
I wish math wasn't mandatory for calculating our GPA…I would have like 95/96% otherwise. It only brings it down a couple points, but still. Kinda sucky.



I think my bunny hates my dad…every time he comes into my room, she starts throwing her little temper tantrums where she flips things upside down, makes a mess, and sometimes bites his pant legs or socks. Fortunately bunnies aren't terribly ferocious.
Also, she needs more toys - or even better, a longer attention span.

Also, I was watching Thomas the Steam Engine and Friends (with my three year old, I swear!) and the narrator sounded so familiar, so I stick around for the credits to figure out who it was. Would you believe George Carlin used to do kids shows? And the guy pretty much nailed a cockney accent. Talk about versitile.
Who's a what now? O_o
"Steam" engine? What? Is that what he's called in the states? He's always been "Thomas the Tank Engine" for me… -that's a specific sort of train engine, a tough little thing for carrying big general loads I think, as opposed to all the different engines like Gordon etc who all have different specialities. And for me the TV version was always done by Ringo Star with his Skouse accent.
… I liked my Thomas the Tank Engine book better though, that's what I grew up with.

Oh dear… doing the cover for a catalogue. With all different people having design input and stupid ideas. -_-
Really, really stupid ideas.

Just finished watching a movie called The King's Speech. One of those movies I really liked. Never knew King George the VI had speech problems. Heh… visiting my sister's house is always fun. She's mad about movies like I'm mad about video games, and she always seems to pick the best stuff out. :)

Sorry Ozone, my son is the fan, not me. We can safely assume that when it comes to Thomas the Whatever Engine, I'm not entirely sure what I'm talking about. It's one of my son's favorite shows, but I've only ever watched a few episodes. I'm one of those boring parents that kids hate to take to the movies because I'll just fall asleep halfway through.

Shaun the Sheep, however, has managed to keep my attention whenever we sit down to watch it; but then was a huge Wallace and Gromitt fan growing up, so maybe that's just the middle ground for me and my son.

The ravens in my part of Oz are huge and very noisy. VERY noisy. That sound is like murder, despair, death… So horrible.

If you had said Crow instead of raven, then I could have responded with: "Now, now, they don't call a group of them a Murder without reason, neither, me'lad." They're pretty noisy, but they're awesome pets I hear, very good talkers, if creepy ones.

You're lucky to live in a part of the world with such beautiful and eerie avians. I'm stuck with crows and ravens. Pied Currawong has a nice song too. Better than caw, caw, caw.

Yeah fairly lucky I guess, but I'm used to him and his cronnies now, I've given them all bird related names to make them less threatening, Russel Crow, Crowdidily, Gregory Peck, and so on… They have a pretty awesome song though the Currawong, very loud, like a flute being played by an epileptic is the best way I can describe it.

Also, I was watching Thomas the Steam Engine and Friends (with my three year old, I swear!) and the narrator sounded so familiar, so I stick around for the credits to figure out who it was. Would you believe George Carlin used to do kids shows? And the guy pretty much nailed a cockney accent. Talk about versitile.

I used to LOVE Thomas the Tank Engine, me and my brother used to fight over it :/ I have the old Thomas the Tank Engine toys, they're made of STEEL, for BADDASS KIDS. But they took them off the market because… sharp point toys that could be thrown at high velocities were dangerous.

EDIT:

That awkward moment when you can't spell a particular word, so you replace it with something far more simple. :D

Oh man, I used to love Thomas the Tank Engine when I was a kid. But I remember watching it as "Shining Time Station" It had Ringo Star as "Mr. Conductor" and later on George Carlin. One of the cast members was Frenchy from the Grease movie.

That was one of my favorite shows when I was little.

LOL Thomas the Tank Engine actually has a cameo appearance in my comic.

Thomas was a daily presence for years in our house, along with Percy, James, Gordon (he was a little intimidating as I recall), Bill & Ben, Tobey, and grumpy Diesel. can't remember the others.

We watched it through three Mr Conductors: Ringo, George Carlin, and Alec Baldwin

I just have to tell you guys I have been playing with this too much today, it's really brilliant (and everything it makes sounds kind of like an Ico song, haha): Otomata
Here's a song I made!

That's a pretty cool piece of tech, and that song you made is great!
Reminds me of those games you can get via PSN etc.

Dammit I've (unintentionally) cut myself twice in 2 days! Both my index fingers, too! If I'm not careful I might lose my ability to draw temporarily.

I also used to watch Thomas The Tank Engine.
I had most of the said steel train toys.
Good times.

Holy shit I just had an epiphany to how to bring together the plot of that difficult comic i'm doing. Like it had the premise and the ending, and the action, just was missing 'something'. Awesome, awesome, now It can be finished!



Also 'ultimate man crush' is an awesome name for a comic. I wish i'd have thought of it lol. Nice feature. :)

The DOCTOR WHO EXPEREINCE (3 tickets from just 55 GBP)
Okay, well we watched a programme of the doctor telling us who he was mixed with clips or the past series, but then then the screen cracked (like the cracks in time) and opened up! We climbed through and came out in Starship UK and there were Smilers and one of the guides from in the library (Vashta Nerada episodes) and red lights and sirens blared and on this big screen there flashed a warning of intruders. I thought a monster was coming (so freaky!) but it was the doctor and he told us we were in danger and he called us a rubbish sub-race called Shoppers! He was trapped in the Pandorica and was moaning about the Daleks’ low creativity level because it was dull and single-coloured. He used the sonic screwdriver and materialized the TARDIS next to us and we went in and he got all the children to fly it using the controls and we worked together and materialised near a Dalek spaceship! So we went in there and looked around, really confused, in the dark. Suddenly a Dalek supreme rolled in and was going to enslave us forever! It was huge! Next, another one came from behind and to the right and we were trapped (from all sides, scary!) then the doctor appeared on a screen and explained we were barely worth enslaving (because we were only Shoppers) then there was a big space fight with lots of flashes and bangs and mini-explosions! After that, we ran away and ended up in the forest of the dead, weeping angels everywhere! It was dark and scary and I grabbed my brother (thinking, ‘If they touch me and zap me to the past, you’re coming too.’) and the doctor told us, whatever we do, do not blink. And eventually we got through into dim light and put on 3D glasses to watch the doctor get sucked through the crack and all the monsters trying to grab us, it was like real! In the nick of time, the doctor was safe! So then we left the dark and gave away our 3D shades. Then we saw the Pandorica and all the props and outfits from the real programme and took photos next to all the monsters and controlled a Dalek and added sound effects to a clip and walked like monsters then I bought a memorabilia T-shirt and badge at the shop, had a quick picnic and went back to my area from London. A great day out!

Floaters suck. What's killing me is this AdSense floater that will sporadically follow me around the forum. At this point I'm not going to find it at all unlikely if they add those ones that wash over the whole page and you have to wait ten seconds to proceed.

blech… it's almost payday and I'm almost out of coffee. Maybe to save money I'll try and eat packaged ramen for the next two or three weeks. And maybe add some stuff like boiled eggs and bacon to the stuff to make it more lively… :)

*sigh* they actually dubbed it in Icelandic and I got always so sad when they rolled the credits because I wanted to know how Ringo Star sounded like. Yes, as a child I knew who the Beatles were…

Then both of you should spell Starr correctly. ; )



I have a history test tomorrow, but since it's in preparation for our exam my teacher decided not to tell us what it's on.
So I just have to study 60 pages of text for tomorrow, no big deal. -_-

Carlin and children's shows? …think I've got something to fill up my vacation time.



So my second cousin and distant aunt came into town so I had to go to dinner with my dad's side of the family on the other side of the state last night.

The kid liked to mention that, he had ADHD a lot, how much he liked Iron Maiden, the new Pokemon game was the most awesome game ever, the black kids in his school being scary (right in front of my very ghetto adopted cousin).

So it was very awkward. Especially because I get stuck at the kid side of the table but let me tell you, the adult side doesn't get much better.



Tomorrow I've got to go clean out the Drama Closet in my auditorium with a couple other officers in the club and then go film an infomercial for and invention for my One-Armed teacher, called THE NUB OF DEATH.

Its basically a sword attached to your nub.

Very impractical but he said he thinks he'll love it.

i thought this was the start of a very awesome analogy for kicking as*
——-

I should try to keep my posts to one per page, i'm running out of stuff to vent about chatter, natter or think about wildebeasts. i just end up with one shots.

Mostly, nothing has bugged me lately. seriously, it's like i'm high all the time, and everything is water off….the ducks….back.

so just chillax people, and grab a chair. let's all be under the sea, in an octopus's garden, in the shade.
