*sniff* One of my long standing goals in life is...is...to get a giant Kinder egg. One of those giant ones with stuffed animals in them! Hey, its a simple wish. But it's the little things in life, right?
Could this be the origin of repeated egg references in Mixed Myth? Naaaah. After all, I don't want the egg to explode when I try to eat it.

I'm so politically correct it hurts sometimes.
Hm, there are some elements of that in my comic. Like the two best friends who are incredibly close to each other and can talk about everything, and the good-looking gay boys and smartassed intellectuals just waiting for some loving.. but otherwise, I sure wouldn't want to be my main character. Wouldn't mind being the one who plays his friend, though... mostly my comic is just an alternate universe to escape into whenever I'm bored with this one.

Normaly I try and keep myself detatched from my characters. It makes it harder for me to have bad stuf (In a non comedic way anyhow) happen to them.
However, I do slip things in here and there. Like having weapons, big ass F*ckin' weapons!
That and I always wanted a dog. So I gave my main character a dog... Sort of...

I hate to say it 'cause I have nothing but love for Pin, but I only made Megan a vegan so I could parody and criticize vegetarians.Soap Soaperson wrote:Vegetarians can be cool too! Look at Megan in EOI.
In regards to the post, I was about to say that it doesn't apply to me because I've got everything I really want. A comfortable home, happy relationship, and enough money to buy whatever toys I want. So I couldn't think of anything off hand that I wanted that I was putting in the comic.
But that's not true. I do EOI because I miss the fun I had when I met Shannon online. We've tried to recapture that, but we don't enjoy chatting with other people anymore now that we don't need the internet to communicate. The comic is like my own personal controlled chat environment/role playing storyline/thingy.
Edit: Plus, I was never accepted into the traditional "high fantasy only" chat rooms 'cause I played characters like Duke and Woot. So EOI is also my <i>revenge!</i>

Hey, it's all good, we are meant to be parodied. I for one always hated vegans that bitch to their friends about how evil they are for eating meat.Sortelli wrote:I hate to say it 'cause I have nothing but love for Pin, but I only made Megan a vegan so I could parody and criticize vegetarians.Soap Soaperson wrote:Vegetarians can be cool too!

I know what you mean. I can't stand it when my "friends" bitch to me about me how evil I am for eating vegans.RPin wrote:Hey, it's all good, we are meant to be parodied.

Eating vegans? Are they any good? I mean, do they taste okay, fill your stomach, are nutritious, that sort of thing?
Faith is what credulity becomes when it finally achieves escape velocity from the constraints of terrestrial discourse- reasonableness, internal coherence, civility, and candor. Thus, the men who commited the atrocities of September 11 were neither cowards nor lunatics of any sort, but Men of Faith- perfect faith- and this, it must finally be acknowleged, is a terrible thing to be.

Yeah, two guys completely losing their minds being stationed in Iraq! What a dream come.........oh wait.
OK, this one was meant to be like my life on purpose.
On a side question, has anyone ever come to find out that their life is starting to play out like one of thier comics, be it your current one or a past one? Even metaphorically? I know I am.

Actually I'd settle for just magical powers.
Or a magical chick. (I'm not really into elves... though if I wouldn't say no to a hot magical elf chick)

A.D.H.D is base about my life and my friends around me... just exagerated times 80.
But the whole thing about drawing it cause you can acheive it... I don't know. I mean, I draw Exactly how I am, not how I want to be, I really do have pointy ears and a tail...

Obviously, judging from my strip, my secret desire is to be smarter than anyone else.
Part of the time.
And literally retarded part of the time.
Hmmm.
I may have achieved my ambitions...---Al

Given the horrible things that happen to people in my comic, maybe I'm a masochist at heart. Dunno.

oh I see.. so you make the cute defenseless Vegan, not the big huge earth crisis listenin' SHARP Vegan... *c*Sortelli wrote:I hate to say it 'cause I have nothing but love for Pin, but I only made Megan a vegan so I could parody and criticize vegetarians.
Whats with all this vegan hate... *l* actually its sort of bad, I guess cause maybe I still have that Skinhead Aura (all one-hundred and fourty pounds) or somthing that when I tell people I'm a vegan they think I'm gonna hit em' or somthing. I wrote an essay about, how all the violence has torn down both the vegan and the straight edge communties..
but Mr. Bob, I bet Vegans would be all gritty.. not choice eatins if I do say so myself.
