This week has been horrible. It's been slower than last week, and i didn't go to the gym at all (planned week off), and i couldn't get up in time for work at all this week. Luckily they kept assuming i was at the gym, like i normally am. I really am lucky most of the time.

I'm going to the doctor on monday, he'll tell me how much longer i'm out of "work". If i'm able to come off work, i'm volunteering for a six month deployment to the desert from september to march. best time to go, average temperature is 70* instead of march to september where it's 115.

Then hopefully, i come back in march, and can reapply for the spec op job that i've been trying to get for the last couple years. Denied me until 2012 cause i took a bonus. even tho the rules say i can do that. jerks. making up supp rules…

I was a dick at 15, still am at 17.

You're only 17? Damn, I thought you were much older.

I give up on life. @_@

I'm actually a 35 year old man who works as a trucker in Kentucky but likes to pretend he's a 17 year old girl to lure others into a false sene of security. :D

Sometimes I wish I was a 35 year old truck driver. But now I'm just a 40 year old "rent-a-cop", or so people like to call us. Truckers make a LOT MORE money than I do…

Well… as long as OFAV isn't a Yandere she's okay with me.

What's a Yandere, you ask? Think of some scary woman who will do anything for the person she's in love with… including tormenting and brutally murdering anyone she sees as a rival for that person's affections… and even killing the object of her affection when the feeling isn't mutual because if she can't have that person, no one can…

Oh my god I just finished my final final project.

So tired. That was much more effort than it should have been.

I told the guy I'd send him a copy of a lithograph he saw and wanted to use for a "post-rapture" piece; and if there was anything specific he wanted illustrated, I'd be happy to oblige. The issue is themed "SeNihilism Issue: in praise of old punks, cranks and crazies" . Which would probably be perfect for me, as I'm dating one (old punk), and show signs of becoming one myself (old punk, crank, and/or crazy- take yer pick). But the stuff is due the first week of June, and I'm not sure I can crap out anything I'd be happy with before then.

I got asked to contribute to a magazine. http://www.scribd.com/doc/49615002/Issue-1-of-OBSOLETE-Magazine Haven't done a comic in…. hahahahahahahaha. I'm scared shitless. Pardon my French.
Wow! Congrats HH! -We actually name-checked you in last nights Quackcast recording, when mentioning art that reminded me of a print…

You can do it I'm sure, just need the inspiration to hit and then power through it till you finish. -Fuelled with so much coffee you pee black.

Rapture craziness… I'd love it if there was actually a rapture but only for ants or something.

Ugh why am I having such trouble drawing these boobs? I even got pastel redline them for me, I just have to draw over the sketch, and I am somehow completely failing at this. It blows my fucking MIND how I can't do this.

Boobs can be really hard to paint too. …unless you wash them first hahaha…
No seriously, they're like noses- silly irregular shapes that're only defined by their shadow unless you do them in profile. Such a pain. >_<

Yeah those boobs can just about fuck off, I win.

Also that sketch Pastel drew is making me wonder how girly my wrists are.
I was under the impression my wrists were of girly thinness, but….This just throws everything I knew out of balance.

Maybe it's all about proportions. As my hands are big my wrists look tiny in comparison? Hmmmm…

I need to start a "How thick are your wrists" thread.

You must study them a lot to draw them as well as you do, eh ozone? eh. eh? i'm saying you watch a lot of porn

screw this rapture business. this guy gives us normal christians a bad name.

I mean, Jesus never told anyone when he would come back. Jesus didn't write the bible. therefore, there is no "secret jesus code to end times" just what will happen, not when.

I also hate when i get told i'm unchristian for telling the street corner preachers, they need to be christlike. Jesus didn't stand in the busy streets and preach. He went to the edge of town, and let the curious find him.

Yes, I study noses a lot, which is why I'm so good and drawing them.
And yes I do watch a lot of porn :)

Browser shortcuts on my keyboard, of god how I hate thee!!! Who ever thought that as a good idea? Who actually uses those regularly? The backspace button should NOT go back in the browser history. So annoying.

Just for the record, Kyo hacked this site to point up the lack of security here - and because he could. If you're trying to suggest he's out to steal our bank details, is starting a webcomic host really the most effective way to do it?
lol!
Wtf? It WAS the same guy?

No, I'm not suggesting that Ironscarf, I'm saying that a person that does what the person who attacked DD did can not be fully trusted.
And "testing security" is a lie. The stuff that he was trying to do on the site was really pretty f-ing bad. If there had have been credit card numbers you can be sure he'd have tried to get 'em. ;)
I'll leave it at that.
Interesting that you're coming out with that- Has he actually tried to justify that behaviour? o_O

We have had many genuine users test our security before who have been very helpful. Believe me, there is a gigantic difference between a script-kiddie attack and people who are genuinely out to help.

I still find Kyo more trustworthy than the staff at Drunk Duck. At least he's quick to fix bugs and issues with the site when reported to him. I can't say the same for this place. I've reported a ton of massive security issues in the past, and none of them have been fixed, at all. I can still execute code in PQs, for example. Do you have any idea the kind of horrible shit somebody could do with that?

Maybe I'd be more inclined to agree that Kyo is a script kiddie, and Volte a master programmer if either showed signs indicative of those two things. As far as I go, Kyo seems to be an apt programmer who mae a few dick moves in the past, and Volte is a coder with elementary knowledge who cut and ran at the first sign of a check.

edit: Really if we're going to cut things into black and white, I'd say someone is better off on a site where the admin was known to have defaced a site or two in his day than one that couldn't give a shit less about their users even after it becomes an issue.]

double edit: irrepressible isn't the word I'm looking for, thanks spell check.

Shhh now baby, the adults are talking. ;)

That was a discussion between Scarf and I yesterday, it's now over and we have resolved our differences. If you want to stir up other people's arguments, this isn't the forum for you.

My month:

Grandma dies. I travel 2400 miles (with three kids in diapers, mind you) to get to the funeral. (We get stuck in three airports during this journey, but I'm not even getting into all that.) We arrive, go to funeral. Next day I'm in a hospital for potential staff infectin, running a wicked fever. I get on meds, they release me, we all race home in another grueling journey.

We get home and it's all over, right? Wrong. The antibiotics I got on made my immune system crash apparently, because I caught some weird bug I can't even pronounce. Two days later all of my kids have it too. Now we're all on a new medication, and it's making me hallucinate.

To top it all off, I haven't been able to draw for my comic in weeks. I've got a cover and one page uploaded. Some comic.

I'm going back to bed, wake me up when CF and tD stop having forum pissing contests. Contests! That reminds me - I'm hopping on over to that radio play contest thread to see if there's any news.

Geez, I almost forgot – I wanted to share this with all you fellow artists. I know I'll be wracking up my long distance phone bill :D

Ugh, holy shit. So the plan was to buy a new 2 player co-op game, play it with a great friend, have fun, yes. Excellent. Nothing can go wrong.

Oh my god Fable III, how I should've heeded the warnings I was given.

I mean it's not like I thought it'd be a GREAT game, I just knew playing a co-op game with a friend is always really fun to me, unless the game is REALLY…REALLY.

REALLY. BAD.

Okay let's break down what I got from Fable III co-op
90% of it is story. The second player has no effect on the story. At all. They are ignored at all times. Any new costumes you can buy or are given, are not given to the second player. Okay, that's 90% of the game sort of useless, but you know…
5% is running around constantly. Well okay, at least the game doesn't lag because you have to run Windows Live on top of Steam, which would make moving about REALLY….REALLY.
REALLY. BAD.
(The joke is the teeming amount of sarcasm)
4% is loading screens. Woo.
1% is combat. So you'd expect "So only 1% of the game is good huh."
Yeah, no. Combat sucks. Left click rapidly and you win. Also I can't die. I dunno.

I know this is more video gamey than ranty, but ugh, if….Ugh, this is a rant to me.
Ugh.

Just. Ugh.

Not once have I ever sought a refund for something other than a faulty product, but wow, this is just…Wow.

I just…I was really trying not to complain to Kitty when we were playing it, but I just…I couldn't fucking help it, I was practically in tears at how bad it was. Holy SHIT.

FUCK.

I can't sleep like this, just no. Not possible. FUCK.

EDIT: Ugh, my already petty, stupid rant is under someone with a serious rant holy shit.
