Ugh, Goodbye Deponia is in the Humble Indie Bundle.

Oh, gross. A shame, too; the art style is undoubtedly appealing, but it looks like that's all that the game's got going for it.

A man jumps out of a plane for the first time. At 3,000m he tries to undo his parachute, but the cord fails. At 2,000m he tries to open the emergency chute but that doesn't work either. At 1,000m he bumps into a man wearing blue overalls, carrying a spanner. "Can you repair parachutes?" asks the first man. "'Fraid not," says the other. "I only do boilers."

Watterson donated most of his original comics to Ohio State University and last year they did an exhibition where you could go in and look at them for free. Calvin and Hobbes practically was my childhood, so I was all giddy walking around looking at the original art of the comics I'd so often read reprints of in the books.

I love seeing people from other countries try American stuff that they consider weird foreign things
I had several Calvin & Hobbes collections, as well as two Far Side collections, but as with most of what he bought me, my stepdad took them with him when he moved out.

Why? What would he care about them
Let me guess, he feels them to have been his property because he paid for them
Plato's Symposium begins with a roomful of people at a party wondering why the poets have not written a hymn to love.
How times have changed.
Today I’m filled with the fading memory of those flowers that we both loved, even to this poor colorless thing- I saw it when I was a child- little prized among the living but the dead see, asking among themselves: What do I remember that was shaped as this thing is shaped? while our eyes fill with tears. Of love, abiding love it will be telling though too weak a wash of crimson colors it to make it wholly credible. There is something something urgent I have to say to you and you alone but it must wait while I drink in the joy of your approach, perhaps for the last time. And so with fear in my heart I drag it out and keep on talking for I dare not stop. Listen while I talk on against time. It will not be for long. I have forgot and yet I see clearly enough something central to the sky which ranges round it. An odor springs from it! A sweetest odor! Honeysuckle! And now there comes the buzzing of a bee! and a whole flood of sister memories! Only give me time, time to recall them before I shall speak out. Give me time, time.
I like how Ramsey Campbell had his characters talk about reading the Necronomicon in "The Render of the Veils". In a nutshell: "Yeah, some parts are creepy and cool, but it really pussyfoots around its subject matter, y'know? You would think something banned since the Dark Ages would be less vague and ponderous."

Thanks, Sunn.
That is rad.
So the guy who did Kiss Kiss Bang Bang dropped out? I am disappoint. This guy sounds hella weird, though.
Will do!
holy shit
Wow. Really.

YEEEESSSSSSSS.
I really want the omnibus, so, so badly.
I think so.
I’m filled with the fading memory of those flowers
that we both loved,
even to this poor
colorless thing-
I saw it
when I was a child-
little prized among the living
but the dead see,
asking among themselves:
What do I remember
that was shaped
as this thing is shaped?
while our eyes fill
with tears.
Of love, abiding love
it will be telling
though too weak a wash of crimson
colors it
to make it wholly credible.
There is something
something urgent
I have to say to you
and you alone
but it must wait
while I drink in
the joy of your approach,
perhaps for the last time.
And so
with fear in my heart
I drag it out
and keep on talking
for I dare not stop.
Listen while I talk on
against time.
It will not be
for long.
I have forgot
and yet I see clearly enough
something
central to the sky
which ranges round it.
An odor
springs from it!
A sweetest odor!
Honeysuckle! And now
there comes the buzzing of a bee!
and a whole flood
of sister memories!
Only give me time,
time to recall them
before I shall speak out.
Give me time,
time.
