Blog for no apparent reason.

Just thought I'd update. Nothing on my mind really, I just like blogging. I will lay it out like bullet points because I feel like it.

Want to start my artsy awesome amazingly deep comic no one will get.

A car had a fucking go at me this morning.

Listening to dubstep due to Dave.

Checking out ultraportable laptops on the internet. With much joy and also crippling defeat.

I want the EEE 901 (eee are well known in the mini laptop world).

Mostly its extortionately priced. But still found a couple for a good price.

I suddenly remember as a kid of 15 wanting parking sensors in my coat.

That coat was my life.

I enjoy coats.

Probably psycological.

Facebook layout is fine stop moaning. Look how far it got you last time doucheflicks.

I need to tidy this shithole up a bit.

Need to do something new with my hair + clothes.

Getting over a weak cold.

Mini laptops are sweet.

Want.

I ate chinese takeaway. (Que Patrick: "I'm sooooo fulllll")

Jo was shocked I owned a camera.

Jo is a cunt to me sometimes.

He's called Jo, (or technically Jo') stop spelling it Joe, faggots!

Please don't correct me on that, Narayan, I honestly don't care.

That was a joke, but I have a feeling you's probably have something to say about it.

Not in an offensive way.

Its lateish.

I want to do lots of creative stuff but I feel stunted mentally at the moment. Needs moar blood.

Need to buy more PS tripple gamez.

Might try, and fail, that pass-in-5-days driving thing (100% guarantee (except not)). Sounds like fun!

Need to learn to drive.

Want a nice reliable car.

Want to hear from someone via email. Business is slow.

Nervous.

I religiously watch scrubs late-night.

I secretly love the show Dark Angel.

Jessica Alba is hot.

I want rice.

I want jelly.

I want cake.

I want to write you all letters when you go to uni.

I don't even care how gay that sounds.

I fuckin love Haiku's

I wish I could fund a bunch of funny ones I did ages ago.

Nerd-related, of course.

I really want surveys to have Ethnicity: White - Irish [_] Nerdy [X]

Would like a job so I can feel good spending all my hard-earned savings.

Gonna make my website in notepad. It is going to fucking rule.

Dreamweaver's for suckas.

I secretly like Macs.

Water is good.

Linux may be good but I think Windows is better for now.

[Note to self: maybe start on Lindows?]

Twitter>Facebook

I went there.

Want to hook my rotary dial phone up to my PC

Shouldn't be blogging, should be doing important things.

Hopefully won't need to get up too early tomorrow.

Early being before 2pm

What should I get a job in?????

Narayan and I are funi. Narayan mostly - no - entirely, but I was there:



Out of context?

Hope the gif works.

It didn't.

Need to redo a bunch of college assignments.

FML?

Nah no sweat.

I don't understand how or why people get so emotional about shit.

Especially things out of their control.

Like work.

Although granted Documentary got on me a bit.

I've changed.

Change is godo.

Can't wait for Lappy Lappingson McTopsworth. E tripple. The Epic (thanks Narayan for that one)

Lemons is the name of my new comic.

I want to keep you updated on it.

You do not want to hear it.

You will love it.

Bigheaded? No, just awesome.


Comment with something epic please! Maybe replies to bullet points, maybe your own bullet points. I certainly like this style of blogging.

Something about the spring

It just makes me feel weird. Like an attack of the senses, and all of them bad haha

It reminds me of cracked eggs and warm, watered down apple juice. Yuk. You probably don't understand what I mean, but maybe you do so I'll blog about it. On the plus side, my senses seem to be heightened in the daytime now, as opposed to just in the mornings, its so nice just to be that little bit more aware of everything, but it also makes me feel a bit weird, mixes up my senses a little. I don't know why, my nervous system is just not right.

You know when people say 'it'll click sooner or later' when you don't understand something, well that happened to me today, only when it happens to me, it happens majorly. Like, if I'm in the right mindset I can just understand how something works, or understand just... everything about a subject. Its probably the same for everyone else, if not easier, but I like it when it happens. I just understand things I never even learned.

Anyway it happened today, and I feel a lot more in control with my physical self, and my mind feels a lot clearer now it can cope with that burden. It all just clicked, now I feel like I can sort it out without any effort at all. I think its part of the rum-detox week I've had. I just feel new, like I've been taken apart, had all my atoms cleaned and polished, then put back together.

In this clear mind-set, I will begin my comic, it will be very psychological and everything will be very in tune with how I think and linked to me mentally, because obviously the sleep deprivation, and the fact that when I improvise, my hand just goes off without me.

Some personal (health related) records beat which I am very happy with. So woo, go me.
This monopoly production company seems to be going well. I will let you in on it when something happens I'm sure.

I ought to check in and see if anyone important has emailed me, my website servers have been haxX0rd, so maybe don't visit abysscomics (if you were intending) to for a while. I don't know if its been infected, but just to be safe. As a word of warning, lay low for a while, its a big server so maybe don't go to any websites you're not all that familiar with, just for a week or so until it gets sorted out.


Surf safe,
Jamie

Concept art if you like

Heres the first concepts for this new psychological mess of a comic if you're interested in the progress. Even if you're not I'm still posting it.




Sleep Deprived Buzzwords

To get inspiration for comics, I usually think of the idea or draw out the pilot when I am heavily sleep deprived. I feel it is time for another comic, so I did the same thing but I did more than usual, to bulk the story up a bit. Lets take a look at the results:

Robots
Bar/pub
Chocolate milk = beer
Clocks/watches
Silent comic parts
Flying chairs
Diary
Sleep Deprivation
Hats
Curse
Talking motorbikes
Doctors
Stabby stabby
Acid
Super happy funtime
Rotary dial telephone
Capes
Teddy bears
Piano-based novelty ties
Glasses
Lamp
Goldfish
Snow
Moon
Yellow
Flannel
Mint choc-chip ice cream
Chocolate
Black robot
Frankenstein
Vocabulary/language
Fire/hell
Manners
Balloon dogs
Clowns
Plastic duckies
Lemons
Soy sauce
3 piece suit
Unnecessary wheat production
Goggles

So that is it. I tried to make sense of this and it actually might turn out quite well. I orignally thought it would be an excellent silent comic, but then I thought maybe the story's too complex, so I changed that to silent characters instead.

If you would like, you can comment with the kind of story those buzzwords paint for you :)

I've heard heroes have good dental

I feel like I have neglected my blog a bit. I mean SURE, its never really going to be that interesting, but I guess for some people, maybe someone who is a bit slow-witted (the larger portion of the internet, in other words) or maybe if people are bored, or want to get to know people a little better, or maybe just people who want to feel better about their own problems by listening to other peoples. Like a soap opera but good.

Anyway, the point is, I love to blog, and I love to read other peoples blogs. Its something to get away to, to look forward to, a release from aloneness and from the people who you might not want to open up to. Your own little post-it note on the billboard of the world.

Good, so with that over, I will begin to ramble on about shit that makes no sense or is pointless for a length of time which is slightly longer than everyone elses, just because I'm a competitive little bitch like that.

I guess something which is new is a strong urge to know about everything nerdy. Before, I will be honest, I enjoyed the idea of superhero films, but I never really watched them much, or took any kind of active interest in the genre. But these days thats changed quite a lot. I'm not entirely sure why, but I think it was something to do with last years incredible superhero-summer, where they released some great superhero flicks, maybe even the most in one summer EVER?

Whatever, I enjoyed it, and then WATCHMEN comes out, and I think 'okay this is probably something I'd be interested in', so I research it, and I was right. I had heard of Watchmen before now, in fact I almost bought it way back when, then again when the re-print it came into stores whenever that was, maybe '08? And on Film4 they seem to have some kind of nerdfest going on, which I have been tuning into quite a bit.

Well then I got thinking, what is the fascination with heroes? I mean, thinking about it, its escapism isn't it, but I mean, why the balls do I enjoy watching the same generic hero film structure over and over? Ordinary guy, maybe he gets bullied at school, something happens with radiation, he gets superpowers, he beats the crap outta a bunch of people and gets the girl of his dreams.

I don't actually know, so don't expect a solution from me, but if YOU know, then please, feel free.

I also got thinking about why it hasn't happened yet. Like, why haven't people taken shit into their own hands if they like the idea of it so much. Although thinking a little further, the people who enjoy superhero flicks are pasty nerds who wouldn't know sunlight from a bowl of fruit.

So thats why.

In conclusion, I don't know what's wrong with the world. Nothing really. But maybe it'd be a little more awesome if there were some heroes in it, know what I'm saying?
