Join the army or something if you think the skill to take someones life away is something to brag about.

Hopefully i can get a job at CVS or hobby lobby when they start hiring(this town is always building new shit)

Don't get a job at Hobby Lobby unless you enjoy being chronically screwed over. I am telling you this from personal experience. I worked there for four months and they offered me $6.50 an hour ( $6.20 was minimum wage at the time. ), and a job in the art department to start, but then they gave me $6.20 an hour and a warehouse job instead. The cheap art supplies weren't even worth it because of the low quality and most of them being out of date. They might be a Christian company, but they're all bad business ethics. As an example, I once found so year-old acrylic white paints in 3-packs on clearance for $3.99 because some of them might have been bad. As soon as I bought two of the 3-packs, I found the assistant manager cutting them apart and re-pricing each tube at the normal $7.99 price the next day.

And I can also attest to the fact that a lot of people can be faster with a knife than a gun. My experience so far is that if a dude is crazy enough to charge someone who is armed with a handgun, using a knife, they are likely incredibly ballsy or on something which pretty much makes them a lot stronger and faster than normal. If I remember from Kendo and Rapier classes properly, a guy with a knife within 15 feet is a grave threat and 10 feet means they are within a lethal range and can be dealt with by whatever means necessary. It's 15 feet constitutes lethal range for a longer bladed weapon, I think. Of course, that's just what I seem to remember and I know it's not that cut and dried obviously.

Whoaaa! If we don't have a most coolest avatar category is it too late to get one?
I already won that one! :P

Naw.

Cool avi Pit! :)

thanks Ozone!

and Skullbie, i know whatcha mean about the layover thing. my boyfriend used to live in New Foundland and there were no direct flights from illinois, so every time id's have to stop on a layover, as long as you choose a flight that gives you an hour or two in between [i'd shoot for 2 hours to 3 if it's a really bussy airport.] if you do that and just pay attention to signs, you should have absolutly no problem, you can even ask one of the employees there to point you in the right direction of your gate when you get there. find yer gate before anything, and you'll be absolutly allright.after that kill time by finding food or stores or whatever, but you'll be fine.

Wrong name, haha. But yeah, I'm going to be in Toronto airport, which is pretty big. But I've got a loooooooooooooong layover so it'll be just fine. Once I find my gate and calm down I'm sure I'll just be bored.
Unfortunately my anxiety doesn't seem to believe me. :(

Why not grow it out past your shoulders Kristen? Long hair is sexier on girls

well my boyfriend is lobbying for me to do that (which means I must do the exact opposite!!! hehhh hi theprettiestpony) but I can't go to the hairdressers and ask them to make it longer.


I just want the lady to cut it in a way so that it will stop looking terrible.

and I want straight hair D:

Haha i read Pit's post like 3 times trying to figure out what the fuck i said earlier, and then it's like 'oh B^U'

@lba
Thanks for the warning, i think i'd rather work around art supplies than drugs and shit for minimum wage (7.20$ here i think), well to me hobby lobby is a trashier Michaels
Beats working in any fast food related job whatsoever

@Kristen
Actually… you can xP Extensions look pretty real, my aunt works for some wholesale hair supply place and got me those 'hair-do' super long ones for 30$. No clue how much they are normally though.

God why does Dairy queen, an ice-cream shop, make the best hamburgers? They're addictive almost @_@ sooo gooooood

I dunno if you can really avoid the drugs and crap in any minimum wage job.

But for what it's worth, most hardware stores have a lot of the same stuff you can use as art supplies and they usually start about a dollar over minimum wage.

In other news, I have confirmation that my girlfriend's parents absolutely hate my guts. This is not surprising to me at all. Their way of things is pretty much a 180 from mine, and I don't like hearing advice from people I haven't known long enough to respect, so I tend to spit stuff ( Even if it's complete nonsense or totally untrue. ) out, just to make them shut up. They think I'm full of excuses, lies and BS. I on the other hand, think them to be full of pompous advice, have a lacking sense of humour and to be arrogant rich people.

Given how well things are going, I could end up married in the next 6 months here. lol!

AAAAAArrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…

All us single people should get together and make a pact to die alone, pathetic and childless with only our pets left to mourn for us. Yeah!
Celebrate it! \^_^/

i'm sure you like where this is going, but half that is illegal, in everything but the middle east.
————

undecided on how far i wanna run, but if i wanna go the longer distance, i need to leave now, because i don't have permission to show up to work late…which means i still need to shower and everything before work…

I was complaining to my mom the other day about how I don't get a party or presents for staying single. I never understood why a married couple, who are bringing in 2 incomes and generally 2 sets of house stuff, need 'help on getting started in their new life' when single people only have 1 income, none of the tax breaks married people get, and are supposed to be buying the presents. T_T

I proposed that if someone hits 35 and isn't married yet, they should be able to have an 'unwedding party' and people bring them presents and money to help them along in their not being married life.

I think the best way to wake up, is Viking Metal and penciling a page of a comic while chewing berry flavored stride gum.

Mmmmm.
Let's hope I can actually get a page done today.
Woo.

Since her parents despise you that increases the odds of your marriage a lot!

Unless both your in-laws are dead one of them will hate you. Lucky for me the in-law that would have hated me was dead. My wife wasn't so lucky.

I like it. Why not send Hallmark some comps for "Happy Unwedding Day" Cards? I'm positive they'd go for it.

You could be one of those who gets married after 40. The husband of a friend didn't marry until he was 44. Now in his 50s he has two beautiful tweenaged daughters that he loves and spoils.

I know my parents wouldn't hate her though. The most they'd do would be to say "lighten up", and hand her a beer before they go back to painting leopard spots on the front door. This of course means that her parents would hate them every bit as much as they dislike me.

I think at some point, I'm just going to turn my life into a comedy or something. It's certainly been strange enough thus far. Maybe call it "life at minimum wage", and see about making a comic of it ala Clerks.

I finally got around to hooking up my printer last night and it crapped out on me. Then again it was 3 years old and was starting to have alignment issues. I have to buy a new one though. I will get around to it tonight I guess. Luckily the scanning feature still works…I hope…

So i'm doing a mature short comic right now, i never knew how hard it would be to hide from my parents/uncle. I mean it's not explicit XXX or anything but just would be very embarrassing to get caught drawing: blauugh sketch phase
(i am aware of her resemblance to my other characters)


My uncle apparently has this first edition vinyl/cover of the rolling stones album with all those celebs on it (before 'lucy u got sum spaining to do' guy was removed') and i guess it's worth a couple hundred dollars. He has some other first prints like Vega and some other ones i didn't give a shit about.
I wish they were mine, i'd sell them all on ebay and get an intuous4 B^D

I'm still about 10-15$ short to get Din Krakatau printed (I have no idea how much the proof will cost to ship) and whatever money falls into my hands it never can get as far as paypal :/

Had to buy new pants (the old ones were starting to tear apart) and now it's internet bill time again…

Anybody wants a 5$ digital doodle? haha

One reason why I can't hate the police anymore even if they're behaving badly:
THEY MUST BE VACCINATED TO HAVE THE JOB

I did my research on what it takes to be a police officer and man… you need to have your immunization records presented to them during your medical checkup. So if you are anti-vaccine, sorry you can't be a cop.

These poor souls. I feel sorry for them. Especially when they're behaving badly trying to uphold the system that is killing them.

I sometimes wish I can psychically remove the vaccines from their bodies.

Or make a herbal remedy that will neutralize the vaccines into harmless agents once they get swallowed.

Or whatever it takes to remove those toxins from their bodies!!!

If you hate cops, you should be happy because they got biological and chemical agents in their bloodstream right now.

If they were that against vaccines, then they wouldn't be cops. :] Hell you can't even visit some countries without the right vaccines.

Teachers often need to be vaccinated too. And doctors, nurses, etc. Any profession where you are more than likely to come into contact with other people's body fluids. They're probably more than happy to get immunized. Nothing would be more awesome than contracting Hepatitis from some drug addict who bled on you, right?


I can see the arguments against vaccination on the 'over-vaccination weakens a society's overall resistance' but I really don't understand the argument that a vaccine is an unnatural agent. They're neutralized or killed strains of something completely natural.
