The Great Gatsby: "I think it's a book about a haunted theme park and it stars a magical magic guy and he's good and evil and he's trying to get rid of the ghosts. And I think at the end, since it's haunted by a ghost, he tried to make the park go on fire and it did. "
There doesn't seem to be any kind of sequencer, for one thing. And the only way I can get it to play back anything in my samples folder is with the sampler virtual instrument+the onscreen MIDI keyboard.

I got a "new" office chair for my room.
"New" in quotes because it's a very worn-looking chair that was $10 at the Habitat for Humanity store, but it's good enough for me.

As much as I joke about fanart lawsuit threats, I keep realizing that I can never get as ridiculous as the real thing
Yeah, I felt the same way about Penny Arcade's "click on shit game parody". At some point, the jokes still sorta on the parody writer. Some things are just so absurd there's no real way to go over the top of them.

Well I know you guys don't like dragging up old tee vee tee but there was that one fellow who threatened to sue over someone merely mentioning his name on the internet. That really takes the grand prize for now
So I just found out that The Unfinished Swan, a former 360 exclusive that I have been waiting for for several years, is now to be released solely for the PS3.
Jim Profit is more of an entity than a person. The general consensus is that it's a group of trolls who use the same username. They aren't unique to TVT though, they're all over the place.
Also it messaged me on facebook once, which annoyed me greatly.
Jim Profit was also a temporary member of TvTropes, and actually contributed quite a bit. He brought substance, and was a very valuable member who made contributions, was welcoming to newbies, and helped them write Trope pages better. Of course… Fast Eddie banned him, as Fast Eddie does everyone, because Jim Profit refused to live in accordance to their twisted and sick culture. TvTropes now speaks nothing of Jim Profit, bans anything remotely resembling him on sight, and even speaking of him is grounds for a ban. Just a typical fascist day on TvTropes really…

SL you know my writeup for Whirly Times where he is the most awesomest OC character ever and everyone loves him and blah blah
Jim Profit wrote this same shit up for himself
Also, he's definitely one person. After being kicked off TVT he went and pissed off anonymous and now he's been featured on ED as Article of the Day at least twice now.

Well, I know it doesn't interest you, so I don't really talk about it much...

I always found the contrast between Tatulli's two comics interesting. Heart of the City is almost entirely dialogue-driven, while Liō is devoid of dialogue and relies entirely on visuals.
I heard an interview with him a few years back, where he mentioned that he approaches Liō with an entirely different mindset than he does Heart...it was interesting.

One of the reasons Deco and Co. speak the way they do was to force myself to rely entirely on visuals. What I think a comic should be, anyway. Dialog is supposed to support the visual, not the other way around.
They had to speak, though. Would have been hard to introduce Deco's very French identity otherwise
DI usually has great stuff on their channels but sometimes they lose their minds or taste and play the most off the wall or horrible shit, and this this case, not even the same genre. Just because it has the Mario jump sound sampled every 30 seconds does not make it a damn chiptune
Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
Boredoms were formed in early 1986 by Yamantaka Eye, who at the time acted as front man for the infamous and highly controversial noise/performance art act Hanatarash,[3] locally notorious for its extremely dangerous live shows consisting entirely of on-stage destruction and complete disregard for the audience's safety. The insane antics of Hanatarash would later be highly influential on the earliest incarnation of Boredoms, which was formed by the remaining members of a band Eye started with Hanatarash drummer Ikuo Taketani, as well as guitarist Tabata Mitsuru (known as Tabata Mara), bassist Hosoi Hisato, and vocalist Makki Sasarato, called "Acid Makki & Combi and Zombie".[4]
The Japanoise scene is bugfuck. Forget any "it's Japan" stuff, you want to hear horrible Japanese music, you don't turn on IOSYS, you turn on that shit.
Noise is possibly the only genre of music I can't stand. Everything else, I usually have at least one exception. I've yet to find such an exception for Noise.
The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of life, your memories, your attachments. They burn them all away. But they're not punishing you. They're freeing your soul. So, if you're frightened of dying and... and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth.
Anonus, Liō tends to get cited as one of the few good newspaper comics but I've never really read it much... Opinions are opinions, but I pretty much agree with that assessment. I think Lio can be pretty amusing if you are into the whole "wow, that's bizarre" type of stuff, kind of like how Adventure Time can be. Maybe part of that reaction is due to it standing out a lot from other newspaper comics that tend to play it pretty safe.
Speaking of weird stuff, there is this bit about the 1904 Olympic marathon. "A Cuban postman named Felix Carbajal joined the marathon, arriving at the last minute. He had to run in street clothes that he cut around the legs to make them look like shorts. He stopped off in an orchard en route to have a snack on some apples, which turned out to be rotten. The rotten apples caused him to have to lie down and take a nap. Despite falling ill to apples he finished in fourth place."

This is *not* the correct way to do this.

You're Aesop Rock?
That actually explains quite a bit.

When the heck was that?
Must've been either quite a long time ago or very recently. I don't recall it.
So I just found out that The Unfinished Swan, a former 360 exclusive that I have been waiting for for several years, is now to be released solely for the PS3.
The one console I don't have.
Why?
Just
why?
oh that guy.
err, guys.
something.

I love the concept of Zetman.
It's basically "what if Spawn was also Batman? But in Japan."
*shrug*
I was told it was a couple people using the same account.
It doesn't matter too much, I suppose
I have discovered an old Japanese Punk band called Boredoms.
I would describe their sound as "cavemen raping tigers while on speed, also there's drums".

sometimes, reading Pitchfork's "best of" lists yields good results.
