| | I've become a really big fan of webcomics in the past few years. xkcd.com, Cowbirds in Love, Pictures for Sad Children, Natalie Dee are all really good. My favorite one, Dinoballs, went offline recently. Webcomics appeal to me because you can churn them out really quickly, be a very poor artist, and still be way more entertaining than Cathy. AACK!
I have these really funny conversations with my cousin, Chris, who is 16 (I am 24), about what life was like growing up in the 90's. There isn't that big of an age gap between us but he doesn't understand a world without internet, ubiquitous cell phones, mp3s, etc. Here is a sample of our convo today:
Anonymousliar (5:59:26 PM): hey have you ever heard of settlers of catan? Chris (5:59:45 PM): nope wut is it? Anonymousliar(6:00:54 PM): it is a board game Anonymousliar(6:01:14 PM): like wayyyyy back in 1990 when i was a kid we did not have triple core xenon processed xbox360 Anonymousliar(6:01:28 PM): we had to play games with little pieces of carved painted wood, paper, cardboard and blocks with numbers on them Anonymousliar(6:01:37 PM): this is one of those games Chris(6:05:17 PM): So what is that, like 8-bit?
If I am feeling extra motivated maybe I'll draw some stick figures and make it into a webcomic.
