Hey everyone! Wow, thank you so much for the turnout on the contest, but it is officially closed!! The winner will be announced next Thursday! Sorry, but I now have 600 of these to go through; it's gonna take me some time. ;)
This was certainly not one of my finer moments. Fearing for the safety of the plastic pipes in our old apartment, I simply started disposing of the grease out the second-story window, which left a pleasant little pattern in the snow below. Little did I know, of course, that all the grease was actually sinking below the snow until around March when the snow melted. You could see a grease stain in the concrete below that must have measured a half-meter in diameter. No lie, it was kind of gross.
I'm doing this while everyone is away, and they're going to have to deal with it when they get back. My excitement: incontainable. See, on Sunday I got very bored and I put together a meme generator for Johnny Wander and had a blast watching what people put together on Twitter. Then it struck me: why stop there! Why not hold a contest to see who can make the best meme? And so:
Yuko's father is an interesting dude. I'm pretty sure we could do a comic solely about him. I'm afraid to impart too many interesting stories, though, because I'm sure they would all make awesome comics ... though Yuko would probably object to drawing her father and her brother fighting in her hallway.
Hey everyone! You probably noticed that the new site layout is in place! This is the place to comment on problems you notice around the site. Hope you like what we're doing with the place! :D
Rachelle, who was kind enough to make the comic for us this evening, makes her first appearance in this comic! It was quickly established that whenever video games were played on the same system Rachelle would be Player 1 and I would be Player 2. Not once in the last two years has this rule been broken, and the way things are going it doesn't look like it ever will be.
Oh, how I yearn for that light in the upper-left-hand corner of the xbox controller.
Hey everyone! You can probably tell that Yuko is out of town this week, so I'll be filling in today with a Conrad Action Comic, done in the same vein as Tasha's comic over at Double Fine. I love her stuff, and I'm constantly joking that I could do a comic about my life in the same format, so this is the chapter in which I try to do that.
Hey everyone! A bunch of awesome folks were nice enough to set up an IRC channel for our little crew, so if you'd like to come hang out the server is at: irc://irc.myriadirc.net/#jw. Hope to see you there! :D
Hey everyone, if your comments don't show up immediately, don't panic! I assure you they're somewhere in the system, they just take a little bit longer to propegate now. Your comment should appear in a minute or so from when you post it. Thanks!!
We've all been known to mispronounce words from time to time, but this was probably Yuko's finest moment. I will say this is nowhere as near as bad as the time that I informed my Japanese class that a word that I've now forgotten meant "Venereal Equinox." Clearly I should have been in an English class, but that's for another time.
Take special note of the bowtie on the dinosaur in the picture. It's an important part of the canon.
