Aaah~ Back to normal.

It's always fun to display my favorite pervert-girl.

Sig is back with more Backloggery and kingen goodness.

Fun fact: I initially tried to simply link to my avatar from photobucket, but the DL coding has it so that it auto-enlarges images images to fit the recommended size, pixellating the hell out of it. So I uploaded it directly for less wonky results.

I'll just end up switching again when Simpsons Mafia starts, but love Lucky Star. So transitional avatar is a goooooooo

Back to this. Well until someone links me to either a good Fei Long/Yang shot that I can use to join the SF fad.

PS: XF is awesome and such. PLAY XF.

Been re-reading the archives at Schlock Mercenary, and grew tired of Jubilee (For all that I found her one of my better fits... I just got so USED to her), so I've made a change for now to Captain Kaff Tagon. Tagon is just awesome incarnate. I love comic strips where the main character is the funniest. (And oddly, he's not the titular character. Weird. Eerie.)

EDIT
Actually, Legs is funnier. Legs cracks me up in about 70% of the strips she's in.

And VSM suddenly earns a coolness point.

Veryslightlymad · « **Reply #208 on:** February 25, 2009, 10:00:26 PM »

Say it with a little more surprise, why don't you.

I've been shilling Schlock almost as long as I've been shilling Sluggy, but no one ever seems to follow my advice. Go figure.

VySaika · « **Reply #209 on:** February 25, 2009, 10:08:11 PM »

Somehow I never noticed you hyping Schlock. Good taste there~ Though I ended up leaving Sluggy behind awhile ago. Just kinda lost interest during the whole Ocean's Unmoving bit and never went back.

Excal · « **Reply #210 on:** February 26, 2009, 03:56:41 AM »

That's a pity. The current storyline is actually a whole lot of payoff for staying with the strip this long (or, y'know, just getting through the archives that far). It's taking it's time with it (storyline started in December), but it's been a very good ride so far. Not to mention you also missed a really good Aylee story.

As for Schlock, I don't think I've ever seen it hyped in the DL before, which is odd since it's probably the most consistant (and consistantly good) strip on the web. Then again, I may also not have noticed since I didn't need the prod, having followed it for about four or five years now.

Grefter · « **Reply #211 on:** February 26, 2009, 08:24:42 AM »

I should probably get into Schlock but I think he is at his best when he is being kind of petty and mean. I miss Checkerboard Nightmare.

Veryslightlymad · « **Reply #212 on:** February 26, 2009, 09:15:39 AM »

Howard Taylor is not Kris Straub.

Grefter · « **Reply #213 on:** February 26, 2009, 09:26:21 AM »

Fuck, mixing it up with Starslip. oh well yours sucks then.

Veryslightlymad · « **Reply #214 on:** February 26, 2009, 12:34:43 PM »

Hey, sucks to be you if you don't like a well-written story with an enormous cast of flushed out characters, complete with some really bad-ass science fiction and an author who has updated EVERY FUCKING DAY WITHOUT FAIL for what approaches nine whole years.

Schlock Mercenary is the best webcomic on the internet, and anyone who disagrees is either dumb, crazy, or both.

EDIT
I really shouldn't insult people into doing what I want. It rarely works.
"Read Schlock Mercenary! The Author is a nicer guy than I am!"

Grefter · « **Reply #215 on:** February 26, 2009, 02:52:07 PM »

What are you talking about? Insulting people into doing things works all the time. Everyone has played Fallout now.

Excal · « **Reply #216 on:** February 26, 2009, 11:30:43 PM »

You can tell the author is a nice guy because he treats VSM like a real person!

And... yeah. Far better sci-fi than Starslip, though he doesn't get quite as gimmicky as Straub, and generally tries to avoid overt commentary as well. So, take your pick as to what you like.

Ooooooooh. You totally have Stanley Lau's Chun-Li. Very nice. Very nice.

I wanted to quote Laser Cats. I think it was Laser Cats 3-D, to be precise.

Lawl, ATLUS keeps sending me newsletters about that game. Something about pre-ordering it and you get a little plush version of the main.
