    Maaaan, I've been so overworked. And I still have brew to do! But I'll give it a try.
  • edited January 2008
    But tomorrow is my birthday! I have too much stuff going on that needs my attention to attempt an hourly comic in any case. If I can get some things resolved tonight I'll think about trying.

    Damnit, why do these always end up on a weekday? HEY HOURLY COMIC GUY, I CAN'T DRAW THINGS AT WORK.

    However, I would be up for doing it on the weekend like we did last year. Who's with me?
  • edited January 2008
    I'd be more receptive to saturday or sunday. I could probably take notes at work too though. I just don't think I could draw stuff on the spot.

    You have a desk, don'cha? Just do it at work! Geez!

    I'm gonna do mine during class, you just have to be covert! Just do them on blank notecards, like I do, they're small and easy to conceal.

    Hmmm, this might be the perfect opportunity to start my comic.
  • edited February 2008
    Well, I did little hasty scrawls in paint for up until around 4:30 in the afternoon. After that I went home and mostly killed the night playing Mythos.

    I did nothing all day.

    I FAIL.

    I forgot to try it, and overslept anyway so there wouldn't've been much.

    I started doing mine, but as the day wore on it became apparent that this is the most uneventful day I've had in weeks, and most if not all of the panels would be of me sitting in front of the computer doing nothing in particular.

    I totally forgot about this. I was pretty busy today but not much good for comicness.

    Mario, I am supremely jealous of your burger.

    As well you should be.

    Sorry I didn't make any more comics today. I got a haircut, went shopping for a VCR (they don't exist anymore, except in DVD combo units that start at $70; I ain't spending $70 just to get my Denver the Last Dinosaur fix, so hopefully I'll have better luck at the local thrift stores), ate some homemade sushi (thanks Stef!) and watched Paprika. Probably would have made good comic content, but I didn't feel like taking that extra step to launch Photoshop again.

    What species of dinosaur was that guy supposed to be, anyway?
  • edited February 2008
    He was a previously undiscovered species. The evil Dr. Funt was going to name him a Funtosaurus, but he escaped the laboratory before Funt could show his findings to his colleagues, and he was laughed out of the country for his ramblings. Apparently pride is very important in the scientific community.

    Denver's my friend, and a whole lot more.
  • edited February 2008
    What did you think of Paprika? I just watched that last week.
  • edited February 2008
    Aww, Dr. Funt was being a big baby. I get laughed out of scientific meetings on a weekly basis.

    PAPRIKA SPOILER ALERT
    My opinion of Paprika is: I thought it was really cute how Dr. Ice Queen was secretly in love with Dr. Morbidly Obese. BUT-- WTF, how does it make sense that Dr. Ice Queen is Paprika? I mean, does she have a split personality? Why does she interact with Paprika if she is Paprika? OH MY BRAIN also I really want to wear Dr. Ice Queen's suit to my oral examinations this year
  • edited February 2008
    I'd lean toward split personalities. Paprika was how Dr. Ice Queen represented herself in dreams. She said early in the movie that she hadn't been having any dreams of her own, so it looked like she only dreamed as Paprika. That changed when she was physically separated from Paprika by Crazy Guy That Was All Groping Her; after that she was able to directly interact with Paprika when the dream world and reality were merging, and was able to have her own dreams again.

    I thought it was a slick movie throughout, cool animation and well-choreographed sequences. I don't think they chose a good voice for Dr. Morbidly Obese, but otherwise the English voice actors did their jobs just fine.

    Way to miss it.

    Dresden Codak made an hourly comic this year (not gonna make a separate thread for this, since none of us seem to have participated)! Why do I bother to bring this up? Because he brings up the concept of "Buddhist Mario", which looks like A LOT OF FUN TO TRY OUT YOU GUYS. You aren't allowed to kill enemies or gather coins! Gotta try this shit out.
  • edited February 2009
    I am going to try Buddhist Mario. But what happens when you get to a castle?
  • edited February 2009
    It doesn't matter if Bowser kills you because you just get reincarnated until you achieve nirvana through freeing yourself from desire of coins, mushrooms, and princesses, etc.
  • edited February 2009
    Doesn't really matter anyway, the princess is just a prude bitch. You risk your ass through eight monster filled levels, through the snow, rain, sky, earth, and every other dangerous climate I can think of, just to get a damn kiss on the cheek. That shit's not worth it. It's best to convert to Buddhism and attain freedom from worldly things, like from women who don't put out.

    They can't very well have sex in a 1985 Nintendo video game. It would appear like...Mario fell on top of Toadstool.

    :objection:
    They had sex in video games all the way back in 1982 with Custer's Revenge!
