    I think we both know the unfortunate answer to that little query...

    Hrm, you're probably right...

    I usually am. About just about everything actually.

    It's so rare that I show my ugly mug 'round these parts. How come whenever I do, this place seems like a fucking ghost town? Is attendance just plain low these days, or what?? >=\

    It's probably because you show up in the middle of the night and post!

    Friday night is the worst night to want a ride home. Everyone is busy! Which means I'll have to gimp my way to the bus stop and then gimp my way 1/4 mile from the stop closest to my house and go to bed and wake up and gimp back in the morning -___- I'm so frustrated and mopey about this stupid kneeeeee

    A cop wouldn't let me in the place my brother was graduating today because of my backpack. He told me I needed to put it in my car, but I took the bus and I'm also on crutches. Meanwhile there are women walking in no problem despite having GIANT purses the SAME SIZE AS MY BACKPACK. I had to gimp two blocks and meet up with my mom at her car before gimping back.

    THIS HASN'T BEEN A VERY GOOD WEEK FOR MEEE

    That is very terrible. Did you make his graduation?

  • MustangMustang Arbiter of Unpopular Opinions Registered User regular
    Ahh the girl on crutches with the back pack terrorist routine. It's an old Al Quaeda favourite.

    Seriously though, couldn't he just check your backpack for C4 and AK47's?

  • ninjaininjai Registered User regular
    Well I worked security for the air force academy and its more about time and the fact that everyone is bringing stuff and to get everyone in faster they don't want to check everones bags. I agree with md though, fucking huge ass purses should be treated like any other bag.

    I made it on time but had crappy seats. I hadn't thought about offering them to search it until I was almost to my mom's car |:

    Finally saw Avengers and oh man the Hulk is the best thing.


    Also, and I don't know if this is a spoiler or not but regarding Coulson...
    Why do people think he's Vision? I feel like they're really grasping at straws. That or I missed some references.

    Wow, I LOVE that theory!
    I think it would cheapen his death if he's just "okay" (wow, super science is great for chest wounds!), but that would be a unique way of bringing him back. Having said that, I'm skeptical about pulling that character off on the big screen. Especially because you really need to bring in the Scarlett Witch to make him have resonance.

    Michael Vox, you may want to spoiler that. Not everyone has necessarily seen the movie yet...

  • FugitiveFugitive Registered User regular
    Yeah wow, that's pretty spoilery, dude!

    Anyway, I also saw Avengers today and I was really surprised at how no single character seemed to hog the spotlight. It was a pretty great ensemble cast!

    Man, maybe it's because I've never paid any attention to the Hulk outside of the Ang Lee movie, but I was really surprised with how much I actually cared about the Hulk as a character this time around. It seems like what he was really missing was at least one other interesting character to play off of and hordes of aliens that he could just go nuts on instead of "Here's... another Hulk, except spikey. And the US army, which is established almost immediately as being completely ineffectual/unfathomably lucky".

    I spent way too much time in the office this passed weekend. I didn't get anywhere the amount of rest that I needed.

  • WassermeloneWassermelone Registered User regular
    So tired

    running on 3 hours of sleep


    I need to be better about not doing freelance the night before its due.

    @f87 - this is why I like concept art. Im not responsible enough for fulltime illustration

  • F87F87 So Say We All Registered User regular
    I'm so conflicted about that. I think being a full time illustrator could be pretty great, but so would being a concept artist. Concept art would have slightly more job security, right?

    In case anyone has been out of the loop. Frumph (Phil, the guy who has basically been actually updating and running comicpress dev for the last three years or more) is back in the world and he's got a new dev release of comicpress that will go public in the next week or so, and he's cleaned off all the spam from the comicpress.org forums.

    I wish that dude would ask for/take money. I know a lot of us have offered (he's been going through some pretty heinous shit lately) and he deserves a serious paycheck for the work he's put in.

    are YOU on the beer list?

    It's been a couple years, but one of the problems there is that initially all of that money went to Tyler Martin who originally created ComicPress, even though he hasn't supported it in years. I think at one point Phil got a cut of those profits but I know at another point he put a donation button on his site (frumph.net) to get donations sent straight to him.

    are YOU on the beer list?
  • squidbunnysquidbunny Registered User regular
    Yeah, I've donated to Frumph via his site in the past. He does deserve it -- in addition to his development of stuff he's always excellent about supporting it. Or was before his shit hit the fan, anyway.

    Yeah that post he made last week was fucking mindblowing. I remember talking to him online on chat like four years ago when he helped a BUNCH of webcomics guys and girls get up and running. For a while there Frumph.net was one of the better "webcomic list" sites online too, and he was giving away free hosting to boot.

    He really is just a huge fan of webcomics. I know when he started, and up until his hiatus, he was doing a lot of work for free with the understanding that you would draw a guest page for his Anomaly story and a lot of people took that deal.

    edit: I told him if he'd just start a kickstarter for his comic easel plugin (which is basically comicpress but you can use it with any wordpress theme so you don't have to design your own from the ground up) he'd probably bankroll himself for a year or two just off the community.

    Sort of.

    Games are not THE most stable industry, but its definitely more stable than wondering when the random piece of freelance would fall into your lap. Eventually the idea is that you build a stable of various art directors to work with or get an agent who can get you a stable of various art directors to work with. Im not great with the time management aspect of freelance, but at a '9to5' theres kind of a structure for me to fit myself which works for me.

    I really want to play D3, but I don't have the money. It's gonna suck because I hate it when my friends are all playing a game that I come into late because I totally get the "you'll never be as good as us because you haven't been playing as long" attitude.

  • miaAusamiaAusa GOD Gamer Of Daters ValhallaRegistered User regular
    I get sad too when games come out and everyone gets them first and you fall behind, this happened alot to me in wow I was always behind a few levels with no crazy gear, I wish I could afford this at launch, maybe.. ;_____; ::::saves all pennies::: hopely I won't be more than a week or two off : <

    Yeah. If I get D3 it is going to be way too late to play with my sister/friends/whatever and at that point I'm not sure I'll get enough out of it to justify the purchase.

    I just came back from Denver, where I had my first oxygen deprivation experience! Weird! I felt a little loopy for the first day or two...looking up while outside felt really disorienting, and I had to stare at the ground because I felt lightheaded. Never thought I'd be glad to be breathin' in delicious oxygen-rich sea level Providence air, but there you have it! :D
