Posted by Bob on December 24, 2004: Hey everyone. This week's comic happens to be our annual Christmas comic. It's not a big experimental thing like last year, or a poem like the one before that, but it's still pretty good. And by pretty good, I mean really good. The art turned out pretty good, and I want to say this is the first time the gang has ever appeared outside of the mall. I know Bob did in this one, but technically, that's a dream sequence, so it's not canon.
If you notice, the majority of the top panels are a giant movie reference. Any guesses as to what it is? Feel free to talk about it in the forum. I'll give you a hint-Look at Jessie's car. It's stolen directly from the movie in question. As are some of the top panels. I literally took screenshots from the DVD and used them as a template. I'll give it a while, then I'll post the comparisons in the forum. I hope someone cares!
Let's start off the week with something incredibly depressing. Seriously, if you're prone to taking on others emotions, don't click here. The site name is "My Miserable Christmas," so that should tell you something. However, if you are quite comfortable with taking comfort in other's misery, (That's Schadenfreude, baby!) then this is definately the site for you.
I just don't know what to say about this. Thanks, internet.
Forgot to post this before, so I'll do it now; a Full Trailer is up for Batman Begins. I. Can't. Fucking. Wait.
Even more interesting is the trailer for Sin City. This has got to be the most literal translation from page to screen of a comic book ever. It looks phenomenal.
I love Snopes. I also love that someone, somewhere would have actually believed this. I mean seriously, a bullet would punch through an ovary. Not lightly slide by it, or bounce off it or something like that. It's physically impossible for this to happen.
All right gang, lets have the story of the most evil person of the month! Hell, probably more than the month. That lady's pretty messed up, to say the least. It's one of those things where I don't even know what to say, it's so messed up.
I love living near Chicago. The food, the weather, the entertainment, the sights, the homeless people... It's all part of the ambience. I love how the guy said it was "Like riding a ferris wheel." That's awesome. If living in your normal, everyday house is like "riding a ferris wheel," then it's time to find a new place. Seriously, that's like Day one stuff.
Speaking of Day One stuff, here's how NOT to test a bulletproof vest.
How do I find these things? Who knows, I just do. God bless you, Tattoo.
I would love to do this, but I don't think I've got the equipment or the ability. Pretty cool stuff though.
And with that, another newspost comes to a close. I hope you all have a great whatever you celebrate if you celebrate anything, but for me it's Christmas. Oh, how I love it. (And that is not sarcastic at all, I really do.) Back in a week, kids.
