  1. also - i got hit by a car when i was a kid, but that was one of the most pleasent experiences in my life - i actually flew in slow motion!

    I has the same experience when I was 9, but it was not pleasent. I technically hit the car, but it was moving. I pulled back on the handlebars, and instead of going over the car, I flew backwards, in slow motion. I remember one of my shoes came off (A velcro shoe with a character from the Shirt Tails cartoon), and made a slow arc in the air. I almost thought it was funny, but then my head hit the ground and I slid.

     

    My mother tells me that my brother (7 at the time) came home right after seeing this. He said "Can Stevey come in to play? Oh, and you might want to look down the street. Jason (that's me BTW) got hit by a car, and there's lots of people around him. He might be dead."

  2. When I play video games, I often run in place. I tell people that I'm exercising, which is half true, but its also a manifestation of my Hyperactive Attention Deficit Disorder. Just imagine a 27 year old man doing this, and its pretty funny.

  3. Do you have a new job lined up?

     

    Yeah. I'll be working at Stark State College of Technology as a writing tutor. I'm faculty!

     

    Actually, I worked there last semester, but two jobs were killing me. The job pays $12 an hour (BBV payed me $8.95).

     

    Is the new job hard? At times it is, but most of the posts I made on this forum between September and December (including all of the Haiku) were made from work. Not only did they know I was online, but my boss actually laughed at some of my posts! SWEEEEEEEET!

  4. I have worked at Blockbuster for the last 8 years, and I HATE it. Yesterday just reminded my why I quit: Several customers yelling about how they can't have late fees because we announced "The End Of Late Fees tm" (their fees were from years ago!), people asking "why are you out of "Without a Paddle"? (becasue someone else beat you to it, prick!), and lastly, but certainly not leastly (!?!), we have decided to take all of our games off the floor and replace them with empty boxes, to prevent shoplifting. This is a good idea, except that my boss took all of the games off the floor, mixed them up, then did nothing else. I spent most of my night looking through 400 games, looking for that one copy of Need for Speed Underground 2 on the XBOX.

     

    Anyway, on sunday I complete my eight year sentence. So I raise my glass (coffee mug, it's early) and say, "To the future, may it not suck donkey balls like the last eight years!" *taps coffee mug against monitor*

     

    Toast with me!*

     

    *Lou, you may substitute a bongtoke if you wish.

  5. In a comic, it would have to be something quick, yet something I saw coming. That way, I would have that one panel of looking towards the reader saying "Shit."

     

    In real life, its kind of silly to talk about it because I have decided I'm going to live forever. Yep, that's right. I am immortal. Now you know. :wacko:

  6. As far as naming things, I've noticed that if one names a car, it usually breaks. Also, once I had several fish. I couldn't decide on a name for one of them, so I left it nameless. It lived a year and a half longer than the others.

     

    With that in mind, I'm afraid to name ANY part of my body.

  7. What name should a girlfriend use for her man's dangly bits? What would you find too clinical, or too vulgar?

     

    (No answers along the lines of "my reason for living" etc)

     

    It all depends on the situation! In the bathroom, or just out of the shower and putting clotthes on, "thingy", or "peter" would not be inappropriate. In bed, "cock" is fine.

     

    And now, here come the jokes about how I think cock in bed is fine.

  8. Hahaha! Nerdspeak ON:

  9. I'm also a writer. I'm chronically lazy, so I never seem to finsh anything unless there is a deadline. When I was 14-16, me and a friend self-published our own comic books and mini-comics. I've started several comic scripts, but as I no longer have an artist, I'm not motivated to complete anything.

     

    Besides the comic thing, I write reviews for The Ohioana Quarterly, a publication about Ohio writers. I pulled a smooth one with this gig; I told them I would review all comic books and graphic novels, because a) I'm a self-published comic writer and b) most of the reviewers look down on comics.

     

    Books I've reviewed (and kept)

    Bone: Treasure Hunters by Jeff Smith

    Confessions of a Cereal Eater by Rob Maisch with Scott Hampton

    Blood and Vic by Harlan Ellison and Richard Corben

    Generalissimo el Busho by Ted Rall

     

    I have also reviewed (and had to send back)

    Metamorphosis by Kafka, adapted by Peter Kuper

    The Jungle by Upton Sinclair, adapted by Peter Kuper

     

    I've also reviewed The Witch Book by Raymond Buckland (and kept it)

  10. Hunky Dory is a great album. Quicksand and Life on Mars are two my my favorite songs evvarrrrrrrr!

     

    Ziggy's a great album too.

     

    And Space Oddity.

     

    And Man who Sold The World.

     

    Never got into Aladdin Sane, though. MAybe I should give it another listen.

     

    Oh, and I don't care what anyone says, but Outside was Brilliant!!!! (I'm a sucker for concept albums)

  11. Quit City : Nice strong character piece this though the art breaks down really badly in a couple of panels - almost like a five year old got her hands on the pages in question and finished them up!

     

    Agreed on the story, but I liked the art! It was kind of scribbly in places, and remided me of Dr. Katz.

     

    I hate that these books Ellis is doing are 1 shots! I would read Quit City and Frank Ironwine.

  12. that doesn't even make any sense. you're not paying proper attention to my punctuation.

    I know, I know. It was a stretch. I'm a writing tutor, though, and I've seen some very confusing syntax errors. So in my experience, my response made sense.
