Personality Test

I'm highly amused by this because apparently my real life self is FAR different from my internet self. And its something I do unconciously.

Zebby's results: ISTP Cool onlookers- quiet, reserved, observing, and analyzing life with detached curiosity and unexpected flashes of original humor. Usually interested in impersonal principles, cause and effect, how and why mechanical things work. Exert themselves no more than they think necessary, because any waste of energy would be inefficient.

Lobster Alarm Clock 1

Right, Well, my friend is going to write a few things for the blog. :3 Ohoho. You may refer to this friend as the Lobster Alarm Clock (I came up with the pseudonym. It is awesome and can be shortened to LAC.) So here's the first one!

"People make insulting statements about Christianity and believers on here all the time, and it's perfectly normal, but as soon as anyone makes any insulting statement about, well, pretty much anything else? You have a flame war on your ass. It just makes me so furious to see the blatant hypocrisy that is the norm around here. Aywas holds itself up as this standard of tolerance and equality for all, but that apparently doesn't extend to the Christians (of all sects). I understand the resentment, as most of the userbase is from America, where you do see a lot of bible-thumping crazy "Christians", and a lot of people have had negative experiences with Christians. But that's absolutely no excuse to be so intolerant.

Someone makes a discussion about Christians threatening atheists, tons of respond to chime in their disgust. Someone made a discussion about the Christians in China being arrested, murdered, tortured, forced to ordain a prominent member of the Chinese Communist Party as a "bishop", persecuted, and having their organs forcibly harvested after having committed the "crime" of believing in a God the Communist Party doesn't want them to believe in, and only ONE person responds. One. To me, that's a statement all on it's own.

When it's Christians, people don't care. And yet when Christians dare to speak out about the injustices committed against fellow Christians, they get called intolerant, prejudiced, and biased. How is that fair?"

I have a feeling my friend is right. I mean, I read this before posting it and all I got out of it was "Harvesting Organs". Maybe that's just me...

Menage a 3

http://www.menagea3.net/ (Rated R)

Now, the name should have been my first clue as to what this comic was about. It's.. um... Face reddening. It's HILARIOUS and has an AWESOME plot but your face will burn off.

Art is good, even if there isn't any color. :3 Color it and it would be ten times better.

"Look, maybe I'm the only one here, BUT I CAN'T FIND ANY ARTISTS WITH REASONABLE QUALITY WORK TO ACTUALLY PAY, AND GET A GOOD DESIGN ON TIME, OKAY?? The one time I got my first two customs, they were excellent. Beautiful, everything I wanted. I /overpayed/ because I paid with a spare item (Mind you, a valuable and desirable item. Just not one I wanted) I had instead of shelling out the raw currency. I've been having trouble finding an artist with good work to shell my money out to, and I'm not even looking for uber complex designs. I just want a couple pretty metals to look at. But so many artists are closed and won't look at your requests unless you have the most kickass idea on the planet, which is simply unfair. And this isn't an issue of me wanting the most "famous" or well-known artists- I don't play enough to know who the heck they are, anyway. I can look at work and see what I like, and I'm the kind of person who has no problem ponying up when I want a product and know its worth the price. If someone wants to direct me to an artist who's actually doing good work and /open/ (and not just for bribes, and "only if your idea is really interesting), I'd really appreciate it.

And why should I have to meddle with digital art and coloring pets when I don't want to? Look, I'll put it this way- I hate most digital art, because it's meaningless to me. I don't even really think of pets so much as "art" as much as "a pretty picture I can enjoy this game with". I just want to have fun and have nice pets. I'm not looking to be lazy. I just don't want to mess with all the implications of making my own pet.

So maybe you can see where I'd like an easy simulator with a couple options whereby I could quickly and reliably make a custom for myself. Maybe even something that I could use to sort o "sketch" out colors and patterns I'd like on a pet, and then take to an artist and say "I'd like something like /this/, but with more sparkles!" so they know what I'm talking about and what I want and can actually do it. It seems to me that artists want an excruciatingly detailed explanation of how exactly you want your pet to look with a million references, and I simply don't work that way."

Oh my GOD this is priceless! I can't stop laughing! She is so bloody hilarious. Thanks to Tayzer for showing me.

*curls up in a corner giggling* This person is missing the point of aywas by a mile.

The Gutters

http://www.the-gutters.com/comic/177-gibson-quarter

This is a comic by the same optically challenged rodent crew that does some other comics I plan on adding here later. They are funny. I like funny. COMICS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FUNNY.

This is a comic about comics. Oho, redundancy or brilliance? I'm going with 'or'.

There isn't really much to say about this because it's not a story comic and more of a page to page comic. Like the funny papers. If you like superhero comics, you'll like this. If not, you might not get the jokes.

Amya

Now, I don't mind this comic. It has the potential to be a great story. Sure I have a very TINY idea of what is going on, but heck, they're only a little bit into the story, right? And at least I know who the main characters are. What bothers me is the excessive amount of guest art comics things. :| Come on now, I'm not here to see these, I want to see the comic. And on TOP of the guest art? It updates... maybe once a week? Not even? I can see updating once a week if you are someone like... Oglaf They can make it work because each of their comics shimmers in the sun like a greased up california beach goer. If you only update once a week you have to make reading just one page WORTH something. A humorous comic can do that but when story type ones do it the readers tend to twitch a little.

Let's see, well, it seems to be about a mute noble girl and a prince on the run from.. something... we aren't quite sure yet. It has a medieval feel to it but since there are trains I'm going to up my history guessing to victorian/renaissance. There is obviously magic involved and some.. thing.. called a Seraphine chasing them that I REALLY want to see up close because it sounds badass. (If it isn't I will be sooo disappointed in this comic.)

All in all, not -bad- but not great. I suppose I really like the mute girl, I always have a soft spot for mute main characters.
