You can go on there and make your own web comics using pre-made shit, not to mention a really good character editor. If you know me, you know I love really good character editors. Or maybe you don't. What else could I type here? ...Ooh, oh yeah, I was on my own all last week, which meant I really had to stretch my skills as a chef for dinner. Day one consisted of a medley of heart-attack inducing breakfast foods, including hash browns and bacon. Day two, I feasted on reuben sandwiches. Day three saw me ordering out for a cheeseburger and bacon and cheese french fries. Today was my specialty(wait for it): Shitty Fajitas! My method of madness involves tortillas, any type of cheese in the fridge, and any sort of luncheon meat sitting in the drawer. I nearly died. I kid you, of course, but my shitty fajitas are something I wouldn't feed my enemies.

Well, I'm down twelve points, and they're selling.

Sincerely,

John

In other news, my birfday was last Thursday. Went to the Bamboo House, ate 7Up cake, and got a Transformers MP3 player. Now I just need the computer equipment to use it, which should put me back another couple hundred dollars. Does anyone know of a reliable SD card reader? I don't wanna get soaked.

That's purty much it. Finals this week. End of first semester this week. Improv show this week. I Am Legend opens this week. This week this week.

Sincerely,

Johnwave

Ned: Zombie Fighter

So, Ned's in it, a few of my friends will make cameos as zombies, I've come up with sweet weapons that I'm sure no one has done before. Yeah, purty awesome.

As I'm writing this, my cat, Cleo, is sitting on the desk, staring at the wall. What could she possible be thinking about? How to best destroy me? Well, I have Drawing I today, and as much as I love to draw, I hate Drawing I. It's amazing how school can suck all the life and fun out of things.

Sincerely,

J. Driscoll

Now, a short list of the perks of being an art student:

-You can freak people out whenever you want. It's okay, you're an art student.
-You don't have to keep up appearances. Hate shaving? It's alright, you're an art student.
-All your classmates can relate to your "struggle." It's okay, man, we're art students.
-You're required to carry a knife. No joke. It's for an art project. I swear.

Sincerely,

Johnny D!

This is why I want to write some form of Japanese entertainment. It's easy as shit! Every single Japanese action/adventure or action/adventure/gaming cartoon has the same fuckin' plot and the same fuckin' characters! And the creators of these cartoons make millions off the merchandising rights and shit!

Now, I just gave you readers the basic plot structure, but to make a successful Japanese cartoon, you need sexy characters and lots of 'em.

First, decide on the gender of the main character. This will be the most important decision and will ultimately decide if your cartoon sells or not.

-If you choose to go with a male character, he must by young and androgynous with a sexy large-breasted sidekick/love interest. Must have weird powers that only manifest themselves when he's pissed off.

-Now, if you go with a female character, she must have reasonable breasts, a cute transforming animal sidekick, and a dashing twentysomething love interest.

(Also, while cute transforming animal character sell, large breasts sell better, not to mention only chicks and furries watch cartoons with female main characters, while ALL nerds and bottom feeders enjoy the exploits of the male character and his large-breasted sidekick.)

Now we need some sexy minor characters that the great unwashed lot can drool over and cosplay as until their crotches are red and raw.

-Sidekick/love interest: Big tits. She must also be useful in some way, like she can fix cars or shoot huge, sexy guns.

-Twentysomething love interest: Handsome beyond all get-out. Has sort-of big brother relationship with female main character. Dashing, also.

-Cute transforming animal sidekick: Must have in any kind of Japanese cartoon, no excuses. Needs the least amount of thought to create, until it transforms into its hulking, unstoppable creature form, which must be ridiculously elaborate and bejeweled.

-Token rival: This is the jerk the main character has known all his/her life who picks on the main character, but really has a heart of gold. Must have red hair. Must die.

-Villain: The first fiftysome episodes, this guy can only be shown as a closeup talking mouth or a menacing silhouette with those evil eyes. After that, he/she must be pretty human looking, only with pointy ears and sharp teeth. Then, during the "final battle," he/she must take on at least twelve different forms.

-Mysterious guy with long, dark hair and glasses: This guy is the most mysterious guy in existence, with powers nobody can imagine or get a glimpse of until the last episode.

Now, just give the characters names that mean stupid shit only /b/tards worry about, give at least five of them huge swords no one could possible carry, throw in pointless battles that go no where, and send them on some epic quest to search for some legendary object that may or may not exist.

There you have it, your very own Japanese action/adventure cartoon.

Sincerely,

Johnny D!

Clicking that little "Random Deviant" link at the bottom of the page has taken up the majority of my time spent surfing the web, and I have found a few more deviantART foibles to rant about. First off, last week I wanted to find a decent drawing of a character named Slash (the evil turtle from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles). After a few minutes searching the word "slash," I came to a shocking realization: the majority of pictures I was skimming through all involved pictures of popular Japanimation male characters engaging in homoerotic activities. I was appalled, to say the least. A quick search through Encyclopedia Dramatica revealed that the term "slash" is commonly applied to this sort of homosexual fanfic... thing. It's not that I'm a homophobe, or against homosexuality in any way, it's just the fact that when somebody wants to search for an awesome picture of the character Slash (I found one, by the way), they'll be pummeled with wave after wave of male on male cartoon characters. Folks, get a new fetish, please. These characters aren't real, and they never will be.

Next order of business, the question of originality when it come to your... "art." Now, I can understand when someone wants to draw an already existing character in their own style (except when people draw Invader Zim screwing Gir up the ass in Japanimation style, with accompanying poem. That's just disgusting), lots of people do it, and that is pretty much the staple of the mainstream American comic artist, but when you take Sonic the Hedgehog or Dr. Robotnik or whoever, and color them a purple and green doesn't make that your creation. Photoshopping a picture of Miles "Tails" Prower (who, in fact, is male and has always been male, let the stupid arguments cease) goldenrod and magenta does not make that picture yours. I can't begin to tell you of all the so-called "artists" I've seen whose entire body of work is comprised of drawings of Sonic the Hedgehog characters colored differently and wearing pants. It has become a whole other genre of art.

Whatever, fuck 'em. I'm tired.

Sincerely,

Johnny D!

Yes, I said it (or wrote it. Whichever.). The Internet is not worth anyone's time. All of these so-called "blogs" are usually just some over-emotional fourteen year-old girl writing about what happened at the Hot Topic Friday night. And the majority of Deviant art is just some other geek's rendition of Naruto using their copy of "How to Draw Manga." Unoriginal.

Oh well, nobody will take the time to read this anyway. I just needed to get that off my chest without having to make a few people cry. They know who they are.
