Xbox...It's Not Just a Murder Weapon Anymore

The other day, I happened to comment to a friend of mine that if you loaded a medieval catapault with a first generation XBox--and two controllers--you could make the Arch de Triumph crumble to the ground of Frog City (that's a French people joke). He remarked that it could be put to use in much more constructive ways...such as an anchor for a cruise vessel.

But I kid. Honest. I like the XBox. I mean, come on. They've got Halo...and, uh...Halo 2. Oh, and the 360 is gonna have Halo 3! I mean, come on! Where can they go wrong?

Asexy Time!!

Well, it's been awhile...a very very LONG while, but I'm back to WaOM with a vengeance! Hopefully I'll be able to whip up a few comics, and I'll throw out a bonus one between now and next Wednesday. At any rate, I have to say, I had some fun with this one. I love Fish in the last panel, he's just very simply drawn, but his expression says a lot. Had a little trouble figuring out how I was gonna make this whole thing work, I'd originally wanted it to be a full six-panel spread. But ah well, I think it worked without feeling too rushed. Also, for those of you who aren't into scientific humor and don't get it, salamanders, like frogs, have the uncanny ability to reproduce asexually. They also, for no reason whatsoever, will lose their gills and become landborne critters.

Anyway, nothing much has been going on around the Woburn Estate. We almost got evicted because the people downstairs heard us talking about drugs or something and figured we were all smacked out of our minds. WHICH WE WEREN'T, incidentally. But they told the landlady on us, and we got a warning notice. It's all cleared up now, and we're squared away.

Yep, it's Oscar season, ladies and gents. That means one thing: a lot of famous people are going to be given free million dollar gift baskets that could have gone towards feeding starving children in Africa or curing a disease in Central Asia...or assassinating Kim Jong Il.

Fucking celebrities. Well, I'll see you guys later. Peace out.

Gender Confusion

Well, I just couldn't take it anymore. I had to make a new post. It hasn't been a full week, but I wanted to share some love with all of you guys in the form of a comic regarding salamanders, fish, and tadpoles. Woo-hoo! Can't you just feel the love in the room?

For those of you who have not yet heard of the awesomeness that is Ian McConville and Matt Boyd over at Mac Hall (http://www.machall.com), then I suggest you go over there and chexx0rz out their shit. They stopped making comics back in September, and the entire site has been like a wooly mammoth caught in the ice age, frozen in time exactly the way it was when it died. Their "goodbye" rants are still up there. I love Matt Boyd's final post. "If your the last one out, don't forget to hit the lights and wash out the coffee pot before you go."

Well, until next time, friends. Adios.

Introducing...A Tadpole

Fuck yeaaaaaaaaaah! New character, shitty boundaries, and a grand total of 7 panels?!? Does the madness know no end?! Oh my gosh no! It does not! Woooooo! Anyway, yeah, I know, I'm late on the comic. Again. But who isn't these days, right? I'll try to throw a new one up every Wednesday, so keep in touch! Because next Wednesday, that's right! I'm gonna post a new one! Yay!

Well, not a lot's been going on lately. We had the big employee Christmas party at Chili's on Sunday, which kicked more ass than most people can kick in large groups over the course of a week. There was tons of food, free booze, and everybody got a prize! Including myself, who managed to win 2 Blockbuster gift cards worth ten bucks apiece. Afterwards, most of us went to Al's, where we sang karaoke, made a lot of noise, and drank some more. Yeah.....it was a good night.

But at any rate, it's time to talk about stuff again. Cool stuff. Awesome stuff. Namely, a well-known hit that is currently number 2 at the box office: Smokin' Aces. Now this is an interesting movie, to say the least. It's a fucking badass kick-your-face-in movie, to say a whole lot more. Jeremy Piven plays the title role of Buddy "Aces" Israel, a Las Vegas magician-slash-mobster-wannabe who is preparing to rat out his mobster pals to the FBI. Ryan Reynolds and Ray Liotta play two federal agents who are tracking Buddy, and Andy Garcia is the Deputy Director of the FBI who they answer to.

Meanwhile, Ben Affleck, Peter Berg, and Martin Henderson are a bail bondsman and two ex-cops, respectively, who are going to try and grab Buddy and take him back to the feds, since he skipped town after his bail was posted. However, Alicia Keys and some black chick who's name I don't remember--don't worry, you won't either--are after Buddy themselves, to collect on the one million dollar hit that's been put on his head. But oh my goodness!! There are also five other hitmen who are heading after this poor bastard too! I won't say anymore at this point in time. Just...go see the fuckin' movie. It's awesome. And violent. And bloody. And gory. And just...just fun. Oh! Oh! And it has that Irish guy with the scar!! The one from Braveheart and Gladiator? Yeah, him!

'Til next time. I'm out.
