9/22/09 Do not buy Sour Patch Chillerz. They are like Sour Patch Kids with toothpaste. They taste bad and will ruin your whole day. Not to mention they clearly have limbs on the front and back of the package but the actual candies DO NOT. EXCESSIVE WORDS! MISPLACED ANGER!
However, there is a new (diet only?) Mt. Dew that is acceptable. Ultra Violet Mt. Dew is for those who have wondered what Mt. Dew and raspberry Crystal Light's baby would taste like. It's okay. Drinkable. The smell is unpleasant but strangely familiar... Buy one. Smell it. Email me.
NEW RULE: If you're allowed to come sit by me outside and start smoking, while I'm drawing and minding my own business, I'm allowed to come over to where you're sitting, and light off a couple black bean soup farts. It's only fair. My smell is just as bad, but my smell won't KILL you.
Smokers, you have been warned.
Only 39 days until Halloween. I could not be more excited!

8/13/09 Hey everyone! It's been a while! I wrote an update, GOSH, a month ago, but never bothered to put it up. I'll summarize. Game fuel = still good. Blue Game Fuel = okay. NBA = over. Football = over. Erzee = unending sadness (until September). MOVING ON!
I've had coffee and Gobstoppers a few times this week. I gotta tell you, it's a glorious way to start out the day. I proposed to the clerk at Maverik to start marketing Gobstoffee, but I doubt it'll happen. Damn beaurocracy.
Why not a link dump?

If you just can't get enough of these kinds of links, or are some obsessed weirdo who secretly stalks me, learning my movements, planning to murder me, steal my Gobstoffee idea, then BECOME me, you can now follow me on Google Reader!
That is all. G'night Earthling.

5/14/09 New Yams are up. You didn't think I'd do it, did you?! WELL THERE! Also, I can name about 140 of the 151 original Pokemon. I forgot Drowsee and Hypno and others I could care less about. Kangaskhan! KANGAS!
Anyway, I still have lots to do, but instead, I'm going through a massive relapse and I'm back on TF2. It's been a little rough getting used to the rhythm of everything again, but I'm almost back (Steam ID: erzee. Hit me up sometime!). Some things have changed (some new weapons, maps, and spy can cloak indefinitely!!) but mostly it's the same brilliant game (nobody protects medics, demos are overpowered, and most people don't get the 'team' concept). New sniper updates are coming out pretty soon, which means, I'll be going spy and pyro a lot more. Mwahahaa!
I'm wearing new socks and underwear! What am I even talking about? Was I trying to make a point? Well, I wrote it, and now I can't un-write it.

Huh? I can? Well, I'm not going to.

4/14/09 Hey all! In case you were wondering it IS self-aware. Strangely enough, this seems to be a real entry...
Just for a change, I tried my hand at writing ten mini updates last Monday (one an hour at work) in place of one big one, but I basically ended up documenting exactly HOW boring my life is. Also, I complain a lot, but coming in to a 55 degree office and the smell of week-old banana peels will do that to a person.
Got a DSi and a few games (ahem... Pokemon Platinum). In the near future, I fully expect my life to revolve around making animals fight each other. Oh, and massive amounts of level grinding, but that usually comes later.
Early version of Obake is done and being listend to. Real version soon. New Yammerings are being worked on. PS3 review section is being considered. True, but non-exciting. Byes.

4/1/09 OH NOE! Make sure nobody A-F's you today. That's April Fools. Guess we know who the fool is now! You sir! BAM!
Ah, April Fools Day. The day where people you barely know make it a point to lie to you. I personally enjoy lying to people year round. People tend to be suspicious today and it ruins the fun. I'm leaning more towards non-invasive vandalism. Oops, I've said too much.
New COD:WaW Nazi Zombie map is fabulous. I'm REALLY hoping for a full-blown Nazi Zombie game to come out. The NZ mode is pretty popular. Come on Activision! Do something rad for a change! Also, remake River Raid and don't screw it up!
Kinda half-hearted post today. Bikes.

3/24/09 Hey, what's up?
Astro-bat feared dead after shuttle launch! OH NOES! Actually the real story is not nearly as awesome as the title. Don't click that... instead make up your own story. NASA scientists built a shuttle to combat the impending wave of Astro-bats looming in space. Mission: ACHIEVED! But, wait a second? Could the Astro-bats have been trying to defend the Earth from bits of Astro-cantaloupe?! Curse you scientists of the 1960's!!
It's that kind of day. I'm exhausted. I don't want to be at work at all right now and everybody assumes I care about NCAA basketball. Sorry, no. In case you forgot: Frantic speedy players + pointless ball movement + crap defense != better basketball.
EDIT: Right before saving this, I learned Winnie Cooper just got married. You know deep down a part of you is weeping.

3/9/09 Day. Light. Saving. Time. Sucks. Are we all clear on that? Don't you ever make me type like that again. Are you even listening?
Falling back is fine. Everybody enjoys an extra hour of sleeping in. I've suggested it before, let's KEEP falling back. Let's do it twice a year. Then, either we swap AM-PM in six years, OR we just deal with it and get back on schedule in 12 years.
Sure, there will be children who won't see the sun for the first several years of their lives. Those years don't count anyway. And who's to say they won't simply develop keen mole-person-like senses? That sounds like we're giving the next generation an ADVANTAGE, to me!
Let's change Daylight Saving Time. For the mole-children.

3/5/09 Holy crap! March already?! The months just seem to fly past when all you do is have your soul slowly crushedwork and sleep! Which leads us to:

That's all I feel like writing. Bye!

2/24/09 Hey, what's up? Yeah, me too.
I'm not feeling super great today. Also, Tuesdays are horribly slow for some reason, that's not helping. I'm thinking I'll head off for some coffee and Runts in the near future and wander around for a minute in the pollutedinversion air of SLC. That's bound to help. In case you don't know, Runts (yet again) have new flavors. They dumped the crappy mango, pineapple, and papaya flavors in favor of more traditional grape and green apple. I'm very much happier, but I miss cherry. I very much doubt you'll find anyone who cares more about Runts than I do.
I used up some remaining funds in my PS3 wallet last night on Noby Noby Boy. I only got a chance to download it last night so I can't tell you first hand how it is, but it seems crazy. Your only goal is to make your BOY stretch out as much as you can. Then you upload your stretch stat to GIRL who stretches based on the total of everybody's BOYs. As GIRL stretches, more fun stuff is unlocked. She's past the moon right now, and Mars is the next big point. Sounds fun (and ripe with all kinds of euphemisms) to me and for $5, I really can't go that wrong. NOBY!

2/10/09 A group of crabs is called a dose of crabs. o_o A group of lobsters is called a risk of lobsters... A group of raccoons is a gaze of raccoons, and that makes me smile. So does the fact that a group of swallows is a gulp.
I've been playing a lot of NBA 2k9 lately, possibly more than Call of Duty: World at War. Crazy, I know! It's a remarkably fun game that keeps me playing despite it's few annoyances. Here's the rundown (and I apologize for the sports related-nerdiness):

1/26/09 YEHAW! A group of vultures is a venue, or when they're circling overhead, they're a kettle. Words are fun!
Hey! I'm tired! How about a virtual crappy cell phone picture tour things in my office? I don't care. You're going:

This first picture is an angry orange. He was kinda dried out. His life consisted of sitting around at my house for a few days, riding to Salt Lake with me, intimidating everybody in my office this morning, being cut apart, having his citrus-filled brains gnawed upon for a minute or two, then being thrown out. Sorry angry orange friend. You were dry and nobody likes dry oranges.
These are two Cubee things my lovely girlfriend made me when I was sick a few weeks ago. Calendar face guy is on the left, and Weighted Companion Cube is on the right. I'm considering making my companion cube more 'weighted,' most likely by stealing a couple boxes of paperclips/staples from the supply closet. Weighted or not, I adore him/her/it. I'll never incinerate YOU... *blush*
Bearded cup ghost! Oh yes, we were in bad need of some Halloween decoration around here, and truth be told, I always saw a beard and mouth when these cups were turned over. Don't knock him over. He'll straight up curse you. Forever. He's already got two people on his shit list and I don't aim to be third.


1/20/08 Shitty!
Yeah, I'm going to just curse more and more until I get this 09 thing down. Check in next week for my first ever R rated update!
Anyway, I'm terribly unenthusiastic about work today. I'm still here and I'll still accomplish more than the 40 employees that waltz by my office chatting loudly to other employees while not working (Dear guy down the hall, not EVERYTHING is hilarious. Eat a crap!). I dunno. I'm just not feeling up to trying to knock anyone's socks off today. My bar is now officially set at 'sufficient' to 'minimal without getting in trouble'.
What's worse, is I have nothing to talk about. Ooh, I know! My lovely girlfriend got me Okami for the PS2 for X-mas and It's crazy good (although it took a bit of a backseat after I picked up Call of Duty:WaW). What other PS2 games should I pick up? Any ideas?

See ya!

1/6/08 Dammit.
What are you doing tonight? Okay, that sounds boring. CLICK HERE. NOW, what are you doing tonight? There's a pretty rad calendar at the top of the page that would look great on my desk along side the companion cube. After that, I kinda want to make all the Venture Bros. characters they have and OH YEAH!!! Grey Fox! I guess after that, just go on down the list. Jason, GIR, Dr. Zoidberg... all wonderful looking and I'm surprised I've been able to live so long WITHOUT them...
Oop, Beo just pointed out a Cardboy papercraft calendar is out now too! Hoorah! MAKE THEM BOTH!
As for me, the Ladcomics X-mas comic is still not quite finished. That'll probably burn up my two hours of freetime tonight. But, if I chose to slack off another day, I'd probably be playing Nazi Zombie mode on Call of Duty: World at War! It's pretty incredible. Just you (and friends if you want) alone in an abandoned farm house fending off hoard after hoard of zombies. It's every bit as wonderous as it sounds. Well, it's almost time for me to go home, night all.

12/29/08 Your days are NUMBERED 2008! Really... they are. Three.
So, I think I'm doing pretty well today for a person who got around 3.5 hours of sleep last night. I think I'm covering it up well. I wish I had my sketchbook with me so I'd look productive at my desk(which is unusually frigid for some unknown reason) while being completely unproductive. Oh well... Today is boring and pretty slow. Just in the interest of making things worse, I'm planning on picking up Call of Duty: World at War after work($40 from Target!). The clock is absolutely crawling right now. I'll at least install it tonight, but I really need some sleep. Oh, and I guess I should work on the comic, since it's X-mas themed... If it's not done this week, I'll put it up for next year's X-mas. So THERE!
I'm pretty excited about sucky movies coming in 2009! Anyone else?

12/24/2008 Hey! I've written two different updates but haven't really had anything important to say. So they've just sat on my desktop, unpublished. It's sort of like buying a bag of peanut M and M's, but really hoping for the big spherical one without a peanut. I really didn't want to write anything, I was just hoping something great would show up.
Also, now you know why I pause for an extra half second when offered peanut M and M's from a bowl. I'm just trying my luck for a rare nutless 'surface dweller'. Erm... wait...
Anywho, hope everybody has a nice X-mas(I'm sure people are lining up to read my updates on X-mas Eve...). I already got my present. About a month ago, in fact. I got a big ol' TV to replace the antique junker in the basement. My PS3 looks very nice and very soon, I'll devise some method for hooking my Atari 2600 up. I want those pixels to be FIST sized! Huzzag! I'm partially done with the X-mas comic also. Might be late, but it's free. Don't complain.
ONE MORE THING. Congratulations 2008! You kinda sucked it and NOW you're the longest year ever!

11/26/2008 Work is more or less abandoned today. I guess people are prepping their turkey-holes for tomorrow... take that however you want.
My eye is irritated for the third straight day now. I don't know if it's an infection or if I'm allergic to something. Maybe a kitten hair got stuck behind my eyeball. A girl I went to college with said it's not possible for anything to get behind your eyeball. She wasn't a doctor though. It's probably a kitten hair.
I went to Best Buy to finish getting Ali B's birthday present and in the checkout line I saw something I never thought I'd ever see... Chinese Democracy is out!!! You know, the Slash-less Guns n' Roses album that's cost 13 million dollars and taken 14 years to make? I stared at the box for at least 30 seconds, saying "Really?", over and over. I didn't buy it. I'm not enough of a GnR fan to buy any albums really. I was close to buying this one out of sheer morbid curiosity. I read a few reviews and most have been surprisingly fair and more positive than negative. I'm just shocked it came out.
MORE INTERESTINGLY, whether you care about Axl Rose or not, Dr. Pepper promised a can of DP to everybody in America if Chinese Democracy was released in 2008! FREE DP! Thank you Axl. Now apologize to Slash for being a jackass.

11/17/2008 Really? Already? Well... I feel like I got no sleep at all last night. My office is cold and all my joints hurt especially my stupid shoulder that acts up once in a while for little reason. In short, what a crappy morning.
I've been playing tons of Little Big Planet lately. It's phenomenal. Best game I've played in a while. It's so unique and just legitimately fun. Right now, my character, who was previously had a black pumpkin head with angry eyebrows and a hook hand, now has a sword, sunglasses, Cobain-like blond hair and an army helmet. Wonderful. I'd take pictures, but I keep hoping the PS3 support for screenshots will actually function someday. Wishful thinking. Anyway, if I get a tattoo, Sackboy would be toward the top of the list of choices. Take THAT catrinas,pangolins, and Golems.
I spend a lot of time in my usual half-dead daydreaming state thinking about different things I could build in LBP. I'm part way through an ice-block racing course that will surely set the world on fire. I also made a slingshot/broken amusement park ride shaped like a giraffe. I also re-learned how to spell giraffe. Thank you video games!
I'm toying with the idea of writing more in-depth video game reviews with pictures and that sort of thing, but I doubt how interested people would be in reading a full page about Sky Skipper on the 2600...

10/22/08 Hey all! I had a dream. You know how you are SURE some dreams mean something? This one didn't. The Crocodile Hunter's daughter was my daughter. She was helping me fold laundry and put it on a conveyor belt attatched to a laundry basket (which is a horrible idea). Then she said we needed another recycling bin but we already had like six. I don't know what in the hell I ate, but I don't want to eat it ever again. Without further whatever-that-was:

10/14/08 Hey everyone. Another few weeks of happiness as H-Ween approaches, then the ho-hummedness of that barely-even-a-holiday, Thanksgiving. I used an ass-load of hyphens! I was going to try to think up a list of H-Ween related things for you to try, but you probably wouldn't do them all anyway, so...

9/15/09 Dammit. The MONTH is 09, not the year. Sigh...
After waiting an additional week and a half and paying and additional $10 shipping and handling, I got Mercenaries 2. At first I was pleased, just because I was so fond of the first game, I was happy to see it in motion again. Then the crap started.


So, those are my big gripes. I could go on, oh sweet fancy Moses ketchup, I could go on. There's some old joke about staring at an antpile and a Mercenaries 2 game breaking out... because it's buggy, see? Get it? No?
Anyway, I traded it in for GTA IV which is the game M2 was trying desperately to be. Pretty sweet, but now I'm stuck with this beanie and booklet which shall be known forever as my hat and book of shame, respectively. G'night.

9/8/09 I keep writing 09... Damn you September... Anyway, still no Mercenaries 2... So, for the luxury of paying $10 more than retail, I'll get Mercenaries 2 a week later than everybody else, a hat that most likely won't fit on my head(thanks SOOO-MUCH for the DNA!), and some downloadable costumes that are possibly unlockable anyway. Whee!
I can draw a duck with 9 shapes/lines in MSPaint. I'm not sure, but I think it's the fewest shapes/lines I can use and still have it look like a duck. Have a looksee!


Pretty sweet, huh? Think you can do better? Try it. No polygon-tool though... lamer. In other news, go Ravens, and I can't see myself being a fan of the OKC Thunder (the EX-Sonics). Maybe the Bucks? Any ideas?

9/2/08 Tyr got nailed with some kind of adware and a virus last night that took me a little while to get rid of. Here's the weird part... the adware was advertising ANTI-ADWARE/SPYWARE! That's like a guy shooting you in the stomach on the street, then saying, "You're lucky... I'm a doctor." Anyway, it's over now... just very annoying.
Also, never ever buy anything online from Buy.com or apparently Gamestop. Mercenaries 2 still hasn't shipped. It was released on a Sunday and yesterday was Labor Day, so I'll give them one more day to ship it. Then I'll cancel it and never buy anything online from them again. What the hell is up with crappy online stores? Buy.com was a tremendous piece of fecal matter. In fact, I heard they were going to change their name to tremendouspieceoffecalmatter.com. Also, Amazon is kinda stupid if you try to pay with a checking account.
EDIT: Okay, so Gamestop shipped my stuff yesterday. No one-man boycott yet. I was trying to find out when the NBA team in OKC are officially changing their name, but instead I saw the worst ad ever.


It might have been better if the people who made this ad had ever seen or played Pac-Man. Ever. I'm pretty sure Pac-Man NEVER had giant gorrilla nostrils. Also, I never knew that pac-pellets were made of cholesterhol... Wait! On closer inspection... um... is that fecal matter or just taco meat? Either way, Pac-Man appears to be startled by it. I just noticed I said fecal matter multiple times in this post! Nothing can stop fecal matter!!

8/27/08 Remember Hexagon? It's like Reversi/Othello, but you play on a (shock!) hexagonal board and the rules are a little different. You don't line up pieces to change the color (you HAVE played Reversi, right?!!!), instead you just have to touch them to change their colors. The computer opponent is actually pretty tough! I can only win like 1/5 games. Keep triangles and "speedbumps" rather than "potholes". You'll understand. Go play it. It'll give you something to do instead of working...
In other news, I'm disliking 10 hour work days a lot. I can't seem to get motivated enough to actually DO anything. Even with my extra day off a week. I have been playing a lot of Burnout Paradise lately though (my "trigger finger" was actually sore for a while, lol), and I pre-ordered Mercenaries 2! I'll be happy if the flame physics are half as good as they claim, the co-op isn't sucky (splitscreen would be nice), and I can pick out individual targets for the tactical nuclear strike. On the first game you could pick an unsuspecting civilian to use as your marker for a bunker buster... I laughed... poor Korean... Good times.
OH RIGHT!!!! And I finished off MGS4... What a lovely final romp through killing people and being stealthy. Thanks for a good decade Snake... [sniff]...

8/04/08 Hey everyone. I'm at work! Hoorah! Woo... yeah... groan... [thud]... [death]...
The final Mountain Dew was probably the best of the three, but it was still nothing I'd buy on a regular basis. Java Monster drinks, on the other hand, are delicious and overly-caffinated! Mmm...
I got my PS3, and I'm probably 80% finished with Metal Gear Solid 4. I don't want Snake to die! I'm super glad I got to kill Vamp. That sucker had more than one coming. I thought he was a pretty weak boss to bring back. Generally though, I hate everybody from MGS2. In fact, MGS2 is the only one of the series that I never want to play again. Rose should die. Horribly. And while I'm at it, hey, Raiden, why don't you take that stupid C4 freezy gun and SHOVE IT.
Night.

7/15/08 Howdy y'allah! I have a job working for the Department of Natural Resources. Right now it's a little boring, which is probably why I've had so many ideas for comics lately. I've also been losing a few spare brain cells from sniffing 70 year old Mylar. It's like a mixture of old crayons and milk, but occasionally it smells more like bile.
So far, I have only tried 2 of the 3 new Mountain dews, but I'd expect to try the third sometime this week. Overall, they're pleasant, but they taste like more like rehashes of Gamer Fuel and Pepsi Blue. I've read the final one (the lighter light blue) is supposed to be the best, but I'll be the judge of that. Finally, the Prophecy of Refreshment is nearly fulfilled!
Then quickly: my UTG L96 airsoft is everything I'd hoped it would be (no soda can is safe from me!), I can't wait to get my first paycheck so I can finally get my PS3 (will the sequel to Army of 2 be Army of Tutu? I EXPECT one to be unlockable if so), getting up early each day makes me inexplicably have to baffroom (insert joke about the early turd... lol). Bye children.

6/23/08 Helloo! I'm anxiously awaiting my UTG L96 airsoft sniper rifle. I find myself sitting back daydreaming about how awesome it could be and how many things I could break in my immediate area. Looks like another day at least, but more likely two...
I've been reading a lot of old scary short stories by W. W. Jacobs lately. You know, he wrote the "Monkey's Paw". Here is a good site to check out first for some free E-books, if you are interested. Be careful when you pick a Jacobs story to read though, since like 2/3 of his work seems to be maritime stories. You know. Ships and Captains and stuff like that. Maybe an odd Kraken or two to mix it up.
Aside from that, I've been drawing a bit and playing a lot of video games. I kinda hate the new pyro weapons in TF2(but I AM sniping a lot of pyros), I finished Silent Hill 3(dispensed some serious justice and peed a little), and last night I just finished season two on NBA 2k7(won the Championship).
Oh, and I've been FORCING myself to play Dragon Quest 8 a bit, since I'm nearing the end. Why did Square think it was necessary to stretch the game out THIS MUCH. I have around 100 hrs of gameplay now, and I am genuinely NOT enjoying it anymore. I've already beaten the final boss, let's just say nine times. But I've stopped getting my hopes up, because he'll just get resurrected somewhere else, and 50 random battles later, I'll stumble into his lair, he'll kick the shit out of me, I'll have to hunt him down again, then I'll kill him again. Hopefully this will end soon. At least it will kill some time until I can break things from a distance. Have a good one, everybody.

6/4/08 Hi everyone. It's been quite a while... Hey, it's June!


That's all I can think of right now. I'll be funnier next week! Peas.

4/16/08 Oi! I've started inadvertently writing .jog whenever I mean .jpg. It's irritating! So, when you go to look at the newly added Ladcomics misc page and the pictures don't work, check for assidental .jog extensions.
I've posted a couple other things on my deviant art if you're interested, including a new one featuring a pig and a goat! How could a reasonable person like you NOT go see that!? I got a squid... other stuff... including BLAIR. Go. You'll understand.
Ugh. Short one today. I'm sleepery. Night.

4/4/08 Hiyo.
Ali B! and I did our best at filling in the word bubbles for the new Nedroid comic. Ali B!'s comic(left) and mine(other left). Click for bigger:

Hope you lick them.

3/17/08 The job search continues.
I downloaded and played a unique little point and click game last night called Emily Enough. To call this game 'dark' is an understatement. The game starts with Emily slaughtering her entire family with a knife on her birthday, after they failed to meet her demands. Now she's stuck in an asylum and it's up to you to help her out... It's funny game, but for being so well written and focusing on problem solving(you don't just wander around picking stuff up for no reason), you never really feel attached at all to the main character. I guess they wanted you to feel that way. A seasoned adventure game vet can probably knock this out in 2.5 hours and the newbies can probably still get it done in less than five. Try it out. Here's a hilarious screenshot... in case you don't care enough to play it. Enjoy.

3/03/08 Hey! Do you like Garfield comics? No. Well, nobody really does... Hey, Jim Davis, EVERYBODY hates Mondays... Anyway, here are two ways to make Garfield a little more palatable.
First, check out Truth and Beauty Bombs forums for versions of the strip with Garfield's thought bubbles removed. The result is a much more believable and LIKABLE cat. Jon is just a guy who talks to his cat. We all do it...
The second thing you should check out is called Garfield without Garfield. This version removes Garfield completely leaving Jon to spout half finished, insane and sometimes VERY depressing word bubbles to himself. It's a little creepy.
Either way, it's better than regular Garfield comics! Byes!

2/27/08 Have five minutes? Wanna read something hilarious? Read some of the fanfics by Squirrelking. Fight of Metal Gears 2 is most likely the funniest thing ever made. Also, Halos in Space and Half Life: Full Life Consequences are pretty funny. Oh, people that can't write but try to anyway...
Speaking of which just finished day three of teaching middle school science. It's honestly not much fun right now. I dunno. I'll try tomorrow. blech... bikes kids.
EDIT: Hey, you NEED to see the videos for Full Life Consequences and Full Life Consequences 2. These were both done with Gmod, the editor program. Enjoy! LOL!

2/22/08 Howdy! What have I spent my morning doing? One Must Fall: 2097! Jaguar is still my favorite. Shadow is pretty cool in a cheap Dhalsim kinda way. Go play it!
In addition, Chocolate Mix Skittles are pretty good. Oh, and I start teaching middleschool science next week! Obake is coming along(my side project, the Snow Peas, album) as well as a little site to go along with it. Robot Strong has a cello player as well as a few new songs.
Oh, and I won't acknowledge the Giants winning the Super Bowl. Not yet anyway. I still refuse to recognize the Heat's NBA Championship two seasons ago... That's a lot of stuff! Finally, I'll be buying 30 Days of Night next week and the Darjeeling Limited, whenever that comes out! Yes, I am into vampires and trains. Byes all!

1/31/08 Hey! Remember in September when I said "...my Super Bowl Predictions are the Patriots and oh, let's just say the Bears." then "...it doesn't matter who the Patriots play this year..."? Remember that? I did! Anyway, I'm sticking to it. Patriots win... let's say 10-24. How's that?
I watched The Guyver yesterday, and it is not nearly as good as I remember. At least the sequel has David Hayter... and is kinda unintentionally funny... and is not horribly racist... and has blood... I forgot where this was going. Anyway, I wouldn't recommend seeing either. But if you HAD to see one, like if somebody was keeping you tied down and they were going to start giving you wicked deep paper cuts if you didn't choose one, I'd go with Guyver 2: Dark Hero. Solely because one of the monsters distinctly says 'meow' during one part.
And finally, Spore looks better and better. Gotta wait until at least May though. But then, I plan on wasting a large portion of my life doing that... Bye all!

1/04/08 Hiyo. Happy 2k8. Hope y'all had a nice holiday season. So, take down your x-mas lights and there won't be violence. If it gets to next wednesday and they're still up, you can expect a rubber knife stabbing.
I've actually added a couple things to my Deviant Art if you're into that sort of thing. Also, I have been checking this drawing and illustration blog for probably the last few months. It's pretty sweet. Check out Drawn.ca, again, if you're into that sort of thing.
Next one will be funnier. Byes.

12/14/07 Well, I'm glad that's over with. I'm officially a Bachelor's Degree certified Physics-y Math-y minor-y... guy. Woot! In celebration, I got Portal, and beat it. Magnificent but short. You should go play it. The cake is a lie. A delicious lie. Mmmmm... Also, check out the VGCats music video to Portal's ending song. I lol'd
Huh, it seems like there was some other thing I was going to say. It was something simi--BRAND NEW YAMMERINGS! So, go! Enjoy the new hotness and spread the word if you know somebody who might like them. I personally think these are some of my best. Also, thanks for helping me reach the 3000 page view plateau. Couldn't do it without ya! Byes.

11/30/07 Hi December! Anyway, I am officially done with my big fatty Physics seminar on mineral surfaces and biofilm with the AFM. A result of its completion is my amazing ability to slack off as much as possible. I should be grading Phsx 1010 papers today, but playing MSN Zone Games seemed way more fun. I know, it sucks to be forced into using Internut Exploder(or Outernut Exposer), but Zone games aren't too bad. You can collect badges and trophies for playing games online. It's a little bit of a Pokemon aspect. Damn you, Abra. STOP Teleporting, you flaming ass-hat... anyway, I STRONGLY recommend Peggle on MSN Zones.
I hooked up my PSX a few weeks back, and have been wearing my thumb raw(D-pad only, remember?) playing NFL Gameday '97. It's the last sprite based NFL game. Any play can break wide open at any time. The stiff-arm and shoulder charge own all! I am super anxious to play Portal. The flash version is wearing a little thin, but definitely worth a look. Flash Portal.

11/13/07 You have no idea how many times I've typed ".copm" instead of ".com". I'm super glad ".copm" doesn't mean anything.
Anyway, school is absolutely insane. I have about a month left until I graduate, and it is CRAZY f-ing nuts busy! I thought I still had time to DEWmocracy and vote on what the new Mt. Dew will be, but instead of just voting, you get to (or "are forced to") play some pretty poorly designed games on a slow and graphics intensive website. Here is the "premise" for the "game":

"Corporate Barons rule the city with an iron-fist, but a thirst for change is in the air. As a “Seeker,” you have the chance to return choice to the people. To do so you must embrace adventure, face your destiny, and help create the next Mountain Dew."

Pepsi is funny! I'm assuming, in this case, "Corporate Barons" doesn't mean huge soft drink companies that invade every facet of our daily lives. I hope the "Seeker" can liberate our thirst from the Barons with this Chosen Dew. I hope the Prophecy of Refreshment is finally fulfilled. Lolz.

10/30/07 H-Day is almost here! I'm pumped(pumpkin pun STRONGLY intended)! Think it's too late to do anything? Hell's no. Go get a movie! Or watch AMC for your daily FDA requirement of Halloween 5: The Revenge of Micheal Myers. Here are some movies I've seen lately:

Enjoy, see you lasers!

10/15/07 I just questioned whether I should eat one of my 4-Cheese Lean Pockets frozen, while waiting for the other one to cook. Yep. Today, it's Diet Lipton Peach Iced Tea and 4-Cheese Lean Pockets for lunch. Definitely one of the gayest lunches ever. Meh, it's still good. I regret nothing!
In other news, have you entered the Lad Comics Contest yet? No, in fact, no you haven't. You really should. It's your chance to win fabulous prizes and forever have your creation part of Lad Comics! Huzzah!
Yammerings are still coming. In the meanwhile, you can try to complete this Horror Movie Challenge quiz. But if your connection is as slow as mine, you'll still enjoy seeing Tobin Bell stutter for a few seconds and flail his arms in an attempt to keep you interested while a bit of horror movie trivia slowly appears on the screen. Tobin Bell is creepy. Even blurry and stuttering. G'night.

10/02/07 I learned a very strange thing. After Weezer released their wonderful Blue Album, Rivers was working on a concept album called Songs from the Black Hole. You can read lyrics and dialog from that link. It seems like a kinda corny/maybe okay rock-opera/sci-fi album. I found a couple tracks and downloaded them... they are, well, bad. Very bad. Oh, man! I am so glad they dumped that in favor of Pinkerton! Ugh... ever hear something so bad it makes you feel like you need to brush your teeth? [shudder]
In other news you should all participate in the LAD Comics comic contest! Just draw a comic, submit it to us as a .jpg and no more than 700px wide. The top 3 will be displayed forever on Ladcomics.com for the world to see. 'So you think you can do better?' Lolz. Axes. Drive safe corndogs.

9/24/07 Go grab a buddy and try out Ben's David Beckham's Pro Soccer: Ultimate Champion Edition 1-On-1 Amature Football 2008 Pro(and I think there's some more). It is quite fun as long as you don't expect too much out of it. The guy with the dirty blonde hair is D. Beck. The other guy is just some poser. My streak here at WSU is currently 16-1 wins! I'm encryoable!
I am currently listening to the Refreshments' album Fizzy, Fuzzy, Big and Buzzy and drawing pictures for my Optics homework. I think there is some amount of humor to the fact that the most advanced classes I have ever taken require me to trace things, color, and use gluesticks. I can't wait to make snowflakes out of tissue paper and hang them up all around campus. Two gold stars?! Aw, F-yeah! Byes!

9/19/07 Hey! I am just waiting around to take my very first Quantum Physics test of the semester. I'm not really nervous, I just wish I could go take it now. Whatev. X-Entertainment has started their yearly Halloween Countdown. Check back every day or-so until H-Ween for some funny stuff and products you can buy. EEEE! That is how excited I am. All vowels and an !.
Also, if you are looking for something fun and easy to kill a few minutes, check out Hoshi Saga and Hoshi Saga 2. The games are pretty simple, usually. All you need to do is find the hidden star on each stage. Pretty awexome Flash work and a lot of creativity, there. "I get it! I'm a star for completing this game!". No. No sir, you're not. New Yammerings are still coming. G'night.

9/10/07 Is that right? I clicked on the date thing a thousand times, but it wouldn't tell me the day, so I used my watch, which I don't remember ever setting a date for. Probably a bad choice on my part. Yammerings are still coming soon, be patient!
The NFL season started yesterday as well as the new season of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Okay, TV, you've won this round. So, in the interest of picking something meaningless, my Super Bowl Predictions are the Patriots and oh, let's just say the Bears. Honestly, it doesn't matter who the Patriots play this year, because if the last two seasons have taught me anything(and they haven't), it is "NEVER go against the AFC, EVER". My Ravens will get a Wildcard spot and probably lose. Aw well. [sniff]. Laters all!

9/4/07 Hey! New Yammerings soon, but more importantly, where will you be May 2, 2008? I know EXACTLY what I will be doing. Maybe this completely functionless teaser website will give you some kind of hint. They had BETTER not screw this up.
In case you haven't tried it, Mt. Dew Gamefuel is actually very good! It is Mt. Dew with a refreshing splash of cherry cough syrup. And just a few apples. It is nice to drink a cherry flavored soda that actually tastes a little like cherries. Here is my breakdown of how the new Dew stacks up:

    To Dew List:
  1. Regular - Shaun White contractually had his blood replaced with it.
  2. Livewire - Like Orange Slice, but with caffiene!
  3. Gamefuel - Regular over the counter children's cough syrup!
  4. Pitch-Black II - It is kinda sour grape. And it is SPPPOOOOky!
  5. Code Red - Flavor as real as the street! My street tastes okay.
  6. Baja Blast - A Taco Bell exclusive! Is it supposed to be lime? Lemon? The fabled LYMON?! Doesn't matter. Tis sucky.
  7. Pitch-Black - Ass runoff. It is also SPOOOOKY with a capitol 'POO'.

8/28/07 Hi. When I was a lad, oh some years ago, in the days of yore(whatever in the shite that means), I 'Did the Dew' and accordingly signed up to the Mountain Dew Newsletter, or 'Dewsletter', with my Yahoo! mail account. Since then, I keep getting these monthly 'Dewsletter' updates, generally about how 'Extreme' the Dew still is and how much of an 'Extreme' company Pepsi is. But, for whatever reason, when I try to rid myself of the Dewsletter, Yahoo! mail screws up and overlaps the 'Unsubscribe' link with 'their own idiotic link' to Yahoo!.com. Anyway, I am stuck forever with the cursed 'Dewsletter'. I click the link every time, but it just brings me to Yahoo!. I am significantly 'pissed'. Enough so, that I used a lot of 'unnecessary' quotes in my story.
In other news, 4 out of 5 Erzee's(Erzee's? Erzi? Vintage Tee's?) agree, Natalie Dee is pretty funny and pretty vulgar. 1 out of 1 Ali B's agree, too. Wow, very strange update. Byes.

8/08/07 Hey, check out all the hard work Beo and I have put into Ladcomics.com. It is a lot more attractive and easy to use now. New comics hopefully soon.
I had a lenghty discussion about peanutbutter and jelly sandwiches today at school. Does anyone have any good advice? There is the peanutbutter insulation approach, where you line both slices of bread with peanutbutter so the jelly won't soak into the bread. But, my approach is usually the peanutbutter dam where you make a ridge around the jelly to prevent leakage around the side of the sandwich. Any other strategies you can think of? There is probably some money to be made here or at least massive amounts of time to be wasted discussing sandwich making. What about possibly wadding up a mixture of bread, peanutbutter and jelly into a disgusting ball, then wrapping another slice of bread around it. We'll call it the Matzah PB&J. Laters, all.

7/30/07 Hiya, no pics of the new fireworks battle yet, since it still hasn't taken place. Soon, hopefully.
Anyway, lately I have been into reading about Cryptozoological animals, or Cryptids on the Wikipedia. Crazy stuff there! The Bear Lake monster isn't real? Damn... Looks like Pickleville and Fishhaven will have to find new ways to attract toursit dollars. How about a 'Retarded Name Festival'?
Let's see. Other than that, JV's new album, Emerald City, is out. It's good and way easier to get into than Pixel Revolt. Maybe it is because I think John tried to avoid that 'overproduced' label some music critics loved to slap on his efforts in the past. Emerald City does seem way more simplified and stripped down. Lyrically, it is not quite as deep as his earlier stuff. Call it JV Lite if you want. Go listen. You won't be dissapointed. It is good, but not quite good enough to displace Time Travel or Cellar Door as my favorite JV album.
See you later, all!

7/13/07 Hey! All you superstitious/dumb people! You still lined up? HONESTLY!
I'm a fan of basically any food item that is 'For a limited time only!'. I just want to be able to say I tried it when somebody casually brings up how rancid Pepsi Summer Remix was at some distant point in the future. Tastes like tropical mango death and tires. The tire taste is typical of regular Pepsi. Tropical mango death is new.
Today I had to try Jones Soda Candy. It's good! I *heart* green apple things. Actually(I wrote catually repeatedly), they are very similar to Fizzies from a few years back. Except, I assume these won't make your stomach explode or contain some horribly unsafe artificial sweetener. At least, I haven't had any ill effects. Yet. Well, aside from the wicked long burps. Mmm, mustard! Don't worry it was and unrelated flavor. Try it! It's pretty good! Apple-y!

7/06/07 Tomorrow is 7/7/7! Everybody superstitious/dumb should line up! Honestly, WE made the calendar... it means nothing... Honestly!
I don't know why I'm bitter. Here's a bit of bad news/good news. The bad: my 1993 Legacy is no more. So, if you see my sweet-brown ride, don't honk. What if the new owner is a serial killer? The good news: I got a sweet blue ride, now! Yep, a 2002 Legacy. I'll post a few pictures in a little bit. It is remarkably similar to the old one. Blue!
ONE FINAL NOTE! Beo and I are going to have another fireworks tank battle! This time, we aren't limited to just cars though! More pictures after F-Day. That is Fireworks Day... I guess... I'm sleepy and not funny. Byes.

6/27/06 Hey everyone! Ben, a friend of mine from school, has uploaded some brand of flash craziness. It makes me giggle. Don't expect anything like a plot, though.
Alright, I'm so tired of grading PHSX 1010 papers right now, I might puke. So, here is my 'official' response:

Dear Sir or Madame:
Mass is NOT the same as force.[stop]
No. Seriously. Stop it. I'll kill you.[stop]
Love,
Erzee
[end transmission]

I hope that clears up any confusion. My brain is sleepy and it's only like 3.5. Hrm. Anyone else love Flight of the Conchords?

6/21/06 Hiya, there has been a bit of a change. If this page is not grey/orange clear your browser's cache and reload it. Other than a little facelift, let's see. First, there are numerous new things in the picture sections(I'll be uploading them all the rest of today, most likely). Then, there is a new What I Learned From Videogames section. And last, but not least, we have some new PHP running, which should make this site a tiny bit faster and a bit more secure. I know, neither was an issue, but that's why I addressed it now. Now, I just need to think of something else to replace that little 'flying E' picture with. Hope you like it, lovelies. Yammerings are hard, gimmie a break. Eventually there will be more. I don't want to hear it.
And I almost forgot! Come check out the Robot Strong Pseudo-Acoustic Show on the 29th.

6/12/06 Egads! I may have fixed the guestbook issue. I don't know yet. I guess we'll just wait and see. In addition new material and colors due out next week at some point.
My nipple almost got stabbed off by an air conditioner... Not much else to report. I've been using Facebook a lot more lately. It is like the not-quite-yet corrupted Myspace. Kevin Spacey should really do something about his website. Slacker.
Here is a neat-o little site I found a while ago. Random stuff really. Maybe somebody will find some of it useful, but if not, you can convert your entire image catalog into ASCII images. Ooh, you can do web images too!

6/4/06 Hey! Endless Zombie Rampage! Woo yeah! Tis a bloody mess! I likie.
Anyway, new changes are still on the way for DMH.AS.C I'm quite sure. I'm not sure when I'll be satisfied enough to put any changes up. Also, look for new lyrics and meanings on Robot Strong.awardspace as well as some upcoming funny business on LadComics. Soon. That's all I can say.
I'm still in the midst of playing many many games this summer. I've been playing a whole lot of New Star Soccer 3 lately. It's not free, but it is very fun. It's your basic soccer game, where you only control one player, onfield and off. My girlfriend is upset with my drinking(you'll fall down on the pitch if you drink too much) and it effects my playing. Wonderful. Not really hard once you get the hang of it. I scored 120 goals last season, just in my league, and was injured for about 10 games. Total Soccer is a very good free alternative. It is very challenging, moreso than NSS3, I think. Maybe if the NBA Playoffs weren't completely nuts and awful this year(with the exception of Lebron in Eastern Conference Game 5,... wow), I would watch more of that and play less games. Spurs in six.
EDIT: Oh yeah! Check out Beo's Deviant Art page which could potentially be very awexome!
DOUBLE EDIT: If Endless Zombie Rampage got your zombie juices flowing, first of all you are sick, but you should also give Last Stand a chance. Just last 20 days.

5/21/06 Wow, it's been a while! I'm currently working on a few new little tidbits for this site among my various other projects this summer. So check for that in a little bit.
I've been playing a whole lot of games since school got out. Partially, due to Tyr now entirely Windows Vista free. Tis nice! If you feel compelled at all to use Vista, I would STRONGLY recommend you wait for at least SP1 to come out. All the horrible things you heard about compatibility issues are completely true. Anyway, enough of that.
As soon as they are ready I'll be adding some new game reviews, but until that is done, check out N, which is a fun and challenging platformer built completely in Flash. It can get very tricky. That link is for an online version of the game, but you can try it there and then download it elsewhere to get many more maps and a bit smoother ride, if you feel like it. Kumoon is another really fun game that features a chick with a gun(oh, I just got it!) who shoots over various colored blocks. It sounds goofy, but download it. You'll like it. My only complaint is that there doesn't seem to be any way to save your progress.
Anyways, nothing much else to add. Sorry it took me so long to update, I'll try not to let it happen again. G'night my lovelies. Keep one hand to your backside. That is in a Better Than Ezra song. I'm sure.

4/20/06 Hehehe! 420! ... I don't get it. Anyway, is anyone else as excited to see Hot Fuzz as I am? There is NO possible way it can live up to my expectations, but still... it looks better than 28 Weeks Later. I won't even supply a link for that one. No Jim means no good.
Anyways, other than that, not much is really going on. I got a new laptop. His name is Tyr, at least until I think of something more clever. Maybe Lapras? Oh, f-ing f! That's funny! I've been playing Pokemon Crystal on my GBA emulator lately. It shows. I do have a desire to kick the living shit out of any small animals I come across in tall grass. Well, needless to say, I am a gian nerd, regardless of which name I pick.
Also, only two more weeks of school, then I can update this old sitey a little bit. Pitchaiw, everyone. Next one will be funnier.
