I'm not one for sprite comics, meself, but I don't hate them. A logical step from sprite comics is machinima, so why don't you consider that? Or using sprite comics to tell an actual story, like doing, say, sequels to the 8-bit/16-bit Final Fantasy games using the sprites from them.

Just a suggestion.

what's machinima?
and the comic i had did have an actual plot line they just said it was to serious, well one of my comics did the other had cliche humor which i fail at anyways. and i've got a drawn comic going now it's bloopers from sa2b and i might be making another one that has a plot.

but this machinima sounds interesting.

saix: you like anything with a fancy name.
yep.
saix: i knew it.

Sorry, didn't know that. Machinima, look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machinima

Similar principle to sprite comics, except engineering your own stories using in-game graphics engines.

Bertrand Russel said of Swift, that only rare men have the strength to emotionally bear despising everyone, for the sake of saying something true.

Well, I've been mightily cheered up by someone who seems to hate the world more than I do...

And does something amusing about it!! !

This had me actually (and literally) lol-ing!

Think Bernard Black meets Dilbert (or more correctly, either Dogbert or Catbert).

Read it especially if you like MMORPGs (I don't play 'em myself, though) or Final Fantasy, especially FFXI.

If you want to control your anger, but not keep it bottled up, set aside a time period each day for you to shout obscenities at a wall and say all those nasty things you keep inside. If you don't have enough privacy for that, write it all down, or beat up a pillow.

If I had one Droman dollar for everytime someone said that... Actually, that brings up one of my favorite quotes, in that just about every shava that's been to earth in the last 20 years has saids "Those **** are an Elder race?"

What we really need to do is fix the government. We need to get people who give crap about poverty, crime and such, and who has a plan that will work to fix it.

They're out there, we just need to find them.

I am in a similar situation minus the father part.

I've never liked kids. Unless they were girls who developed early.

I've been driving roughly 5 months now but I'm getting better. Hopefully my clean record will stay that way.

I think they should execute rapists. My family says I am radical and shouldn't focus so much on rapists because I have my own faults and I can't do anything about something that happened in Vermont or Florida.

I can't agree here being religious and that I would like to go into politics one day myself.

Hi Quatermass, thanks for the MGS3 answers :)

How is the job "hunting" going? Have you tried going in person and meeting them?

You can't exactly do that for the Forensic jobs I'm after, though I have done it with other jobs. Besides, I'd be only be able to go up there by train.
