  • I hate twitter pandering, but I really could use your collective support on this – I'm only a few votes behind – http://bit.ly/a3QV7i #
  • I hold no ill will towards Galaxian, but I – and my comic – could really use the boost from getting into round 3. It's been a bad month #
  • First, a #FF to those who #FF #039;d me – @EntitiesRUs @GenDraftComic @anakronistical @Skeletica #
  • Now, #FF of awesome people I've met in real life – @OnyxSparrow @ImpChan @n9uxu @fesworks @chebutykin @dannyson1 @Weirdonian @razcat #
  • @borkedplanet Maybe the perfon in qweftion juft haws a whisp. in reply to borkedplanet #
  • I wish I was better at drawing the female form. There's a reason there are almost no ladies ever in my comic. #
  • Which is apparently weird – I must be one of the few straight males who did not spend the better part of his school days drawing breasts. #
  • @jellybeansniper Depends on the age of the highschooler, I guess… High School could put you anywhere between 12-13 and upwards of 18. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper I think the big difference is one of percentage as opposed to actual age. Like, a 40yr old dating a 35yr old is only .875 in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper Compare that to a 20yr old dating a 15yr old, where there's a 25% age difference. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper Socially acceptable is usually in the high 80's/low 90's for percentage as long as one party is under 30. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @Duncebot You could stick them in a gallery, like I did with my old sprite comic that some of AoD is based off of. in reply to Duncebot #
  • @Duncebot That way, they're up… somewhere… but people have to look to see them. in reply to Duncebot #
  • @Duncebot And yes, we get it, your Wang is magical. in reply to Duncebot #
  • @jellybeansniper My wife and I are 2 1/2 years apart – it was a big deal when we met… I was 16, she'd just turned 14. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper Now, a decade and a half later, the difference is negligable. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper Yeah, no, that is sorta wrong. I'd have to wonder about the home lives/upbringing of all involved in that situation. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper To the highschooler, daddy issues much? And to the 20-something, most people wait until their 40s for a mid-life crisis. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • I'm only 3 under – anybody who hasn't voted yet, I' really REALLY could use your help! http://tgtwebcomics.com/projects/events/tournament2/ #
  • @jellybeansniper I am? AWESOME! Still, I wanna make sure I hang on to the lead, don't know when Kurt's going to cut it off. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper I can't actually see the web page from here – stupid work computers where we're only allowed to have IE7. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @dannyson1 There are so many things wrong with that tweet by @PolarCoug, I don't even know where to begin feeling ashamed of them. in reply to dannyson1 #
  • @jellybeansniper I wouldn't have a problem with it if I could tweak it, put toolbars on it, etc… but it's the default frill-less version. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @dannyson1 Your spelling is apparently another. (own=/=one) in reply to dannyson1 #
  • RT @ellejohara: True Tales of Lesbian Drama: The Atheist Part 4: Highway to Hell http://bit.ly/cMU4GY @jyhash #comic #
  • Ok, it's just about done so I feel safe to tell you all… I didn't "kill" the Apple Valley comics, I just sort of… moved them. Away. #
  • The entire Apple Valley archives are going up on DrunkDuck – http://www.drunkduck.com/Apple_Valley/ – with ALL NEW comics (eventually). #
  • @callouscomics I'd go with a "bwwwwaaaaaaaaa" sort of thing. in reply to callouscomics #
  • @jellybeansniper @betweenfailures I haven't seen the movie, but I sort of pegged him as a modern day Shinji (Neon Genesis Eva) too. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @betweenfailures AKA, "Oh, I'm in a band and have a girlfriend and friends who don't hate me because I whine…a lot. It sucks to be me." in reply to betweenfailures #
  • @jellybeansniper Several of my characters were in a band in highschool called "Beareded Thunder". Fletcher played the bass. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper The band broke up when their drummer impaled the rhythm guitarist with a drumstick because he thought he was a vampire. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper Ironically, he WAS undead, just not a vampire… but he didn't want to be in the band anymore after that. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper And Fletcher never gave up his love of music, taking up the violin next and becoming a professional violinist. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper Of course, none of this ever made it into the comic – and may never, now that I've backburnered Apple Valley. But still… in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper The joke with Fletcher becoming a violinist is that he's also The Archer of Discord… so a lot of bow work. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper And in return, I could slip in a "Jellybean Sniper Rifle" into Doc Hubris' list of weapons he's sold to the government. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @jellybeansniper It could be a sniper rifle made of jellybeans… which, admittedly, would still be pretty useless. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @ellejohara @vertigo_x I wrote some bad Lexx fanfic back in the late 90's… does that count for anything? in reply to ellejohara #
  • @ellejohara nope. Linkify me? in reply to ellejohara #
  • @drunkenfools Religious people avoid my house too. Once, I nearly got a batch of Jehovah's Witnesses to convert to Omnitheism. in reply to drunkenfools #
  • @ellejohara Psst… there technically isn't even a Planet 9 anymore. in reply to ellejohara #
  • @ellejohara Unless, of course, you count the dwarves… and then Pluto would be 10, because Eris would be 9. And rightly so. in reply to ellejohara #
  • @noontanow Omnitheism is all about peace and love, brother. You just have to accept is that all religions are right, including yours. in reply to noontanow #
  • @noontanow Faith is a bird that should be held lightly and should stay in your hand, it should not have to be crushed to death to be kept. in reply to noontanow #
  • @drunkenfools Well, I seriously do believe in Omnitheism – that all religions are essentially true, and that nobody holds a monopoly on God. in reply to drunkenfools #
  • @drunkenfools It's surprising the number of people who agree with that, they just don't know what the name for it is. in reply to drunkenfools #
  • @defectivecandy I had a quasi-ex go from "I'm moving, but I'll call you when I get my new phone number and we can go out"… in reply to defectivecandy #
  • @defectivecandy …to "Hey, sorry I never called you a year and change ago, now I'm married w/kids." in reply to defectivecandy #
  • @dannyson1 "The Monsters are Due on Maple Street". Classic. in reply to dannyson1 #
  • @squirrelyTONKS If you have something capable of streaming (like the Wii, 360, PS3) then it's worth it. Otherwise… eh. in reply to squirrelyTONKS #
  • Last night, I insinuated that I may have tried to convert a couple of hapless Jehovas's Witnesses over to Omnitheism (which I totally did). #
  • Shortly after I made these comments, I got a tweet from some yutz named @noontanow saying "thats bull shit". Obviously a scholar, this one. #
  • What pisses me off is that this @noontanow guy didn't even stick around and fight like a man. Or a woman. Or whatever in the hell he is. #
  • He just hit me and @technopriest5 with caps-and-punctuation free comments regarding his disbelief in our Jehovas's Witnesses tweets and ran. #
  • Well, I call you out, @noontanow – You are a coward, a goon, and an undereducated mook. #
  • RT @Vertigo_X: Round 2 Winners posted! http://is.gd/eiED5 Setting up for Round 3 #
  • WAAAHOOO!!!! I get to be killed off in Round 3, not 1 or 2! It's an honor and a privlege, thank you all! #
  • In a little bit, I go home and draw at least Monday's comic. Any suggestions for topics? Nothing is beyond my grasp to corrupt. #
  • RT @borkedplanet: you got my votes everyday on tgt! RT @kallisti_x: AoD Update: : Answering The Call http://is.gd/ejuHL #
  • @borkedplanet Thanks! I know there's something oddly insular about re-retweeting someone retweeting your tweet, but I went there. in reply to borkedplanet #
  • @fesworks I think so, though it may differ person to person. Some people dislike labeled "bi", no matter where their starting point is. in reply to fesworks #
  • @OnyxSparrow @kaitou_ I'd love to order a pizza (using one of those) that was so complex, the only way it could exist is as a tesseract. in reply to OnyxSparrow #
  • @jellybeansniper They Might Be Giants did an awesome (albeit shorter) cover of Jessica on one of there rare ancient singles… which I have. in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • So AoD updated tonight – http://is.gd/ejuHL – and Apple Valley is back and completely updated to current on DD – http://trunc.it/aavqu #
  • @jellybeansniper It's one of their rarer bits – http://tmbw.net/wiki/Jessica in reply to jellybeansniper #
  • @OnyxSparrow And a klein bottle of soda. in reply to OnyxSparrow #
  • @DarkonZero Don't do it! http://trunc.it/acrus You have so many reasons to live! in reply to DarkonZero #
  • Sometimes I wonder how Google actually makes money. Their whole financial layout doesn't make sense to me. #
  • @webcomictv I guess… that does make sense, it's just I suspect other things like Google Voice cost them a ton of money. in reply to webcomictv #
  • @webcomictv I mean, they're giving out telephone numbers like they're free candy. That's a bit weird. in reply to webcomictv #
  • @DarkonZero Uwe Boll needs to direct an anime movie… An adaptation of Mega Man. in reply to DarkonZero #
  • @imycomic 7-11, Walmart, Krogers, Doller General, Target, K-Mart… they're sort of everywhere. in reply to imycomic #
  • @imycomic Some of them have minutes plans ($.02 per minute, etc), while others have monthly plans ($30 for a month of service, etc). in reply to imycomic #
  • @callouscomics If a phone is unlocked, any sim card will work. Otherwise, you'll need the phone. But it's about as expensive either way. in reply to callouscomics #
  • @callouscomics @imycomic http://www.net10.com is one of the more prominent companies – cheapest phone is $20 for phone and 300 minutes. in reply to callouscomics #
  • @callouscomics http://www.tracfone.com is another – their phones are cheaper, but most don't come with minutes at all. in reply to callouscomics #
  • RT @lextrical: Music Bean 149 – Electromagnetism (remix) – http://bit.ly/b4LoFp #
  • @oppernaR Forever is too coming out one of these days! They promised! It's not a lie… (sobs openly)… I still have mine on preorder… in reply to oppernaR #
  • AoD updated last night – http://is.gd/ejuHL – and Apple Valley is back and completely updated on DD – http://trunc.it/aavqu #
  • RT @JIGreco: The race begins! New Arkham Polytech. http://bit.ly/aYckOE #webcomics #cthulhu RTs appreciated #
  • @webcomictv Hey, how would you feel about a humorous weekly movie review show/comic at some point? in reply to webcomictv #
  • @webcomictv I did Cinematic For The People as a side-comic for several years – I brought it back as part of AoD, but stopped due to clutter. in reply to webcomictv #
  • @webcomictv The original comic (what's left of it) is here – http://trunc.it/acy2d – and the new ones are here – http://trunc.it/ac0rm in reply to webcomictv #
  • @fesworks I always sorta figured it's like multiclassing in Dungeons and Dragons. in reply to fesworks #
  • @chebutykin I admit, perhaps I base (rolls dice) too many of my observations on Dungeons and Dragons. in reply to chebutykin #
  • @chebutykin I just mean… like, if you're a wizard, you're a wizard all the way (from your first magic missile to your last acid spray)… in reply to chebutykin #
  • @chebutykin But a barbarian who picks up a class in wizard is still, ultimately, a barbarian – he can also cast a few spells. in reply to chebutykin #
  • @betweenfailures As well as her chance to stun the enemy. in reply to betweenfailures #
  • Apple Valley has had a graphic overhaul – http://www.drunkduck.com/Apple_Valley/ – now, to do up a new comic or three… #
  • So here's an odd question… should I just throw my new Apple Valley comics up whenever, or should I try and establish some sort of routine? #
  • More to the point, if AoD updates Monday, (most Wednesdays) and Fridays, what day or days should I shoot for for AV? #
  • @n9uxu Apple Valley is the continuation of the whole Arthur/Leaf/Gabbie/Horn/Hubris end-of-the-world story. in reply to n9uxu #
  • Brand new AoD… er, excuse me, Apple Valley, sorry, this a bit new for me. http://bit.ly/c2y59x More about crazy Zeb! #
  • Fans of The Apple of Discord, might want to check this out… Apple Valley is officially it's own comic! http://bit.ly/c2y59x #
  • What? @dannyson1 is evolving! (flashing) Congratulations! Your @dannyson1 has evolved into @danielkid2! #
  • I just ousted @mutt7469 as the mayor of Goodwill Thrift Store on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/d4XuzO #
  • I'm at Goodwill Thrift Store (4912 Airway Rd, Woodman, Riverside). http://4sq.com/d4XuzO #
  • @MichaelPoe On an entirely unrelated note, did you get any pictures of the DeceptiTom in action? in reply to MichaelPoe #
  • @MichaelPoe I got some pics before I gave him to you, I was just wondering if he got into any interesting adventures. in reply to MichaelPoe #
  • @Weirdonian I couldn't say anything because it was a secret birthday present… but yeah. in reply to Weirdonian #
  • Another brand new Apple Valley comic now over at DrunkDuck – http://bit.ly/bizTXC – more on Zeb's nefarious, poorly thought out plans. #
  • @ellejohara I had been meaning to do something with Lexx for a while now, but decent topics for them to cover kept eluding me in reply to ellejohara #
  • @ellejohara I just kept trying to figure out a joke of some sort, and the characters were not cooperating in my mind… this was the result. in reply to ellejohara #
  • I haven't actually gotten any feedback about Apple Valley – http://trunc.it/ajh1o – yet, but from the numbers people are at least reading it #
  • According to the DrunkDuck stat thingy, I'm at 411 for Story comics/550 total… That's… good, right? I can't actually tell. #
  • I mean, being that I haven't heavily promoted it… or advertised it… and I've barely even mentioned it on AoD. #
  • @ellejohara There's actually a study that shows that the positive after-effects of shrooms last for up to and occasionally over a year. in reply to ellejohara #
  • @ellejohara They said that in a randomly tested group of similar people, people who had taken shrooms reported to have had a "better" year. in reply to ellejohara #
  • RT @JIGreco: New Arkham Polytech! Tentacles http://goo.gl/fb/mnP7i #
  • @RunDudeyRun Thanks, it was fun to do. Such great characters, once I had a vague premise, they sorta ran with it on their own. in reply to RunDudeyRun #
  • Today's AoD revels more-than-a-little in my penchant for odd fandoms – please RT if you feel moved – http://bit.ly/aC8ZCz #webcomics #Lexx #
  • @thezombiehunter I just wanted to say, while it's not quite over yet, it has been an honor to be defeated by you in the TGT Poll. #
  • @Prestwickuk How did that kill it? in reply to Prestwickuk #

Posted In: Blog

While I am a consumate Discordian and have no qualms with intentionally screwing with the heads of my readers, sometimes it happens by accident… and on those occasions, I am sorry.  This appears to be one of those times. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
