Well I'll be a Monkey's Uncle.
Posted 17 years ago(Secretly, I would never actually say that, but I was kind of at a loss for words)
So this ColorGenics thing is making its rounds on the Journals. I was naturally skeptical. Naturally, as my cynicism knows no bounds. They didn't even spell "colour" correctly.
So I figure I'll take ten minutes and have a laugh at how far off they were.
I was wrong twice. First, it took me less than two minutes to do, and second... well, I was kind of surprised how specific they got from such a ridiculously simple test.

You are very ambitious and because you seek and need recognition, you try in your own way to impress people and you want to be looked up to - to be both popular and admired. You feel that there is a gap which separates you from your fellow man, or woman as the case may be, but this anxiety is an unnecessary one. Keep on the way you are going and you may surprise yourself.
In actual fact you are not willing to exert yourself in any way. You have that truly 'laid back' attitude and are unwilling to extend yourself or exert undue effort. You feel that to move forward - be it in your life style or in business relationships - would require more energy output than you are prepared to give at this time. You want to take life easy and your attitude is such that 'Enough is Enough'.
You feel very lonely and frustrated at this time but your shyness and modesty precludes you from establishing any deep form of relationship. You feel rather isolated and alone. You are egocentric and you believe that you are always right - well maybe you are - but you have a short fuse and are likely to take offence for the slightest reason.
It is said that we are all influenced by our environment and indeed you are no exception. It would seem at this time that even though you may be surrounded by people, you are experiencing an inner loneliness. Fortunately you are sufficiently strong minded to realise that life has a great deal to offer you and that you may miss your share of experiences if you fail to make the best use of every opportunity. You therefore pursue your objectives with a fierce intensity and are prepared to commit yourself deeply and readily. You believe that whatever you would like to do or think 'you can do' - you do! It is because of this attitude that you may be considered by others as arrogant and even conceited, but its fair to say that whatever it is that you really want out of life you will put your heart and soul into it and will not take 'NO' for an answer.
You are afraid that you may not be able to realise or achieve your hopes and desires and so you insist that people should accept you as you are and appreciate your rights to anything that you aspire to.
So yeah. I guess it really does work. :P
The thing that really got my attention was that it wasn't all just flattery or compliments.
Once you do the test it becomes an ad for some self-help program that sounds shifty, but the test itself is here if you wanna try it: http://www.goldinuniverse.com/
And just to counter the "jump on the bandwagon" feeling I'm getting, have one of my traditional weird-ass links:

Posted 17 years agoSo I realize that I just posted a link to silly videos two days ago, but this was too insane to pass up.
This is an advertisement. It's supposed to make you want to buy Microsoft's iPod ripoff, the Zune.

Oh Vinnie, you so crah-zey
Posted 17 years agoWhen I originally designed Vincent Winterwind Linus (I still love the hippie middle name) I had the idea that he would have no "default" form, being a different shape in each of my stories. This is great from a writer's viewpoint, since it leads to all kinds of creativity, but not so much from an artist's viewpoint, who has to draw him and make it clear that it's Vinnie, even if his mouth is closed. So I've come to embrace the arctic fox form as the one he chooses as his default.
So when I picked arctic fox for his shape in Eager Beagle, I did so for a couple of reasons.
1. He wanted a form that would blend into a crowd, and I wanted to make a sort-of joke about how foxes are mad popular in the fandom.
2. White fur from head to toe makes it really easy to describe transformation scenes.
As it happens, the idea behind the two stories with
Seren_Tremio in them at least is that he picked the fox at random, expecting to use it for a few months, tops, only to want to keep using it in order to spend more time with the people he met in that shape.
So I can appreciate the irony that a shape that I picked out of the air for him to pick out of the air has become his default appearance. It's a good thing he looks good in white.

Organs In Mains
Posted 17 years agoLast week I linked to a Medical Health Reminder that was good for your body, but not so good for your mind.
It was a little weird, you see. Registered a "Wait, what?" On the Weirdometer.
So in keeping with the spirit of amusing myself at other people's expense, I now skip straight to the end of the spectrum, and bring you another cartoon from the same creator, this time entitled "Ptikobj". To give you an idea of where the designer's head was at, to name the cartoon he made a random sound into a microphone. "Ptikobj" is his best attempt at writing it down. This cartoon is jammed with more Weird than is probably healthy.
Ptikobj registers a "Hot holy fuck" on the Weirdometer.
If you've never seen it before, I strongly recommend you not watch this under the influence of drugs, or your mind may be blown beyond future use.
Enjoy.

Oh my, a flaw.
Posted 17 years agoI was reading through my Dave & Kelly stories again, both as a gigantic ego stroke and to try to shake off the writer's block that threatens my Nanowrimo story, and I noticed something odd about the way I handle dialog. The vast, vast majority of the time I write spoken words, I do it like this:
He put down his mug, looked out the window, and smiled.
"Here she comes now."
Notice anything? No 'said'. I write something that hints at the character's state of mind and suggests who is speaking the line, but no 'said'. I almost never use 'he said "Hey, good to see you."' or '"Hey, good to see you," he said.' I just cut that part out all together.
Now that I think about it, since I always start a new line for dialog, I'm not sure how I'd even write that first option.
Hmmm. It seems I'm imperfect. :P
MUSING OVER.

Posted 17 years agoSo you know that feeling you get when you realize that the high schoolers you see were born in the 90's, and that the little children on playgrounds have been born since 2000? The feeling that makes even the young feel old?
I had the opposite of that yesterday.
I was watching some special on the Discovery Channel about the first moon landing, back in 1969. My Dad walks in, and says something along the lines of "Boy, was that ever a big deal."
And then it hits me. Since it happened almost 20 years before I was born, to me it was ancient history, an interesting bit of information that had no more impact on my personal life than the founding of the Roman Empire.
But my Dad, who's just an ordinary man like me, was there. He saw it all happen, watched the crappy quality video come in live from the damn Moon. This was an actual event in his life, something he remembers quite clearly.
And for the first time since I was about 19, I felt very young again.
And now I can't stop picturing older me walking in on my kids watching a TV special on 9/11, and my mind is well and thoroughly blown.

<Obligatory Political Journal>
Posted 17 years agoSo Mr. O won the election. Good for him. Personally, I would have preferred this outcome http://i431.photobucket.com/albums/.....nonlydream.jpg but we all know the third parties never win, and this particular candidate is unfortunately not technically an American Citizen, so I'm afraid it's a pipe dream.
Ah well.

Just wanted to say Thanks to each and every one of you, whether you like my stuff or not.
I'll try to keep being interesting.

Posted 17 years agoDon't tell anyone, but deep down, under all the cynicism and pervertedness, I'm secretly a romantic at heart.
Blatantly known to all is the fact that I'm seriously into vidjamagames.
So this video has me grinning all over. Two weeks ago, this guy proposed to his girlfriend by way of a hacked Chrono Trigger ROM.
If you're anything like me, you'll enjoy this deeply.

Posted 17 years agoI've been putting serious thought into enlisting with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. I realize the only way I could be any more of a stereotype after that is if I transformed into a hockey-playing beaver in a toque, but:
A)It's a good career that will get me away from manual labour forever
B)It pays stupid well
C)As opposed to endlessly moving random car parts around, it's, you know, meaningful and stuff.
D)<Some comment about truth, justice, freedom, and defending the Northland>
So. Yeah.
Also, trying to figure out what I'm going to write my NaNoWriMo novel about is kicking my ass. I suspect I've been writing too much smut recently.
I'm sure I'll figure something out. I'm crafty that way.

Sausage Party
Posted 17 years agoSo let's chase that downer entry off the page... by giving everyone too much information. Not that meme, just something I've noticed.
So I'm not gay. I feel absolutely nothing for the dude-type people in real life.
But sometimes I've seen furry pics of dudes, and I really like what I see. Usually by someone like
blotch or 
zen. So what does that say about me? That I'll swing the other way, but only for fictional dudes? That I would go on a man-date with a werewolf? Or am I overthinking this?
Only one thing is certain. You probably didn't want to know that about me. :D
ČASOPIS KONIEC.

Meaningful for a change
Posted 17 years agoLet me tell you a story.
About a year ago, I signed up with job placement agency A.
They find people what need grunt workers, and I go do the work. They call me up, say "Hey, we've got a placement for you at <wherever>." They didn't even get mad if I turned an offer down. It was a pretty good working relationship. Problem is, Agency A seems to specialize in finding small holes in schedules and patches them, so I'd get sent to a place for a couple of days at most. Their record was 4 days in a row at one place. Nowhere near "stable", although working with them does mean that now I can say I've worked at a chocolate factory. (Boxing white chocolate chips :D)
So back in April, I sign up with Agency B, who seems to be directly tied to a major corporation with two factories in the area. Notably, whenever whatever section I was in didn't need me any more, I'd call Agency B to let them know, and within the same conversation they'd always find somewhere else in those two factories where I could go. This worked splendidly. (Even if working in a car manufacturing plant isn't exactly my dream job.)
Until last month. I showed up for work one morning and got turned away at the door. I was no longer on the list. The company had canceled my contract or failed to renew it or something. I find out that they've dropped LOTS of people from Agency B, so what I believed was that B had screwed up and fallen out of favour with the company, especially since the managers had not said word one to me about bad behaviour. Not a "don't take so many bathroom breaks" not a "you're doing it wrong too often" not even a "work faster".
After a month of not being able to get me anything, I give B the boot and go back to A. Amazingly enough, they manage to get me back into the same factory I'd been working with for B.
Turns out they didn't know I had already been there with B. One day after I started working there, the place cancelled my contract with A. To their credit, they instantly found me another placement, but...
One day? One? This implies to me that they cancelled my contract not because they didn't like Agency B, but because they didn't like me. Did they think I was sloppy? Lazy? Stupid? They never said anything about it to me. And now if it was something like that, since I don't know what it was, I can't improve on it at the next place.
I don't feel very good about myself today.

Ummm...
Posted 17 years agoSo last night I had a dream that there was a little shiny dome thing about the size of a quarter set into the upper left of my left palm, like a very large, very pretty wart almost. I asked my dad "Hey, what the hell is this?" and while he wasn't sure, he did know that the only way to make it go away was by putting hot glue on it. So I tied my arm down and used a glue gun on my own hand.
O.o
I wonder if this is somehow related to the new job...

Posted 17 years agoSo I find it amusing that the Green party got a grand total of zero seats of representation. Wow. Didn't win one single riding. On the other hand, the Bloc Quebecois, whose sole purpose is dividing the country into pieces, got 48.
We are a silly country.
Oh, and for the record, the Tories won again. This does not surprise me.

I am a silly person.
Posted 17 years agoI only just noticed that I can't seem to decide how to spell a word I invented in the first place.
Sometimes I write Vincent's species as Makoji, sometimes as Mokaji. And now that I look at it, I can't decide which one I prefer.
The hell with it, I'll sleep on it.
JOURNAL OVER.

Slow Day.
Posted 17 years agoVery, very slow.
I've had nothing to do for most of the day, and am bored out of my skull.
I'm not even getting many submissions in the old inbox, despite having watched 300+ people to date.
I guess everyone hates Mondays.
Hey, at least I`ve gotten a lot of writing in. :P
LEHTI YLI.

Refreshing.
Posted 17 years agoSo, I finally finished Afternoon Delight, the sequel to Nocturnal Intermission. I wonder if it's a coincidence that an hour after I posted it I got another watch. This may seem insignificant to some of you, but I only have nine watches now, and I'm a writer, not an artist (see previous journal for angst) so each and every one is like a gigantic victory for me. (Thanks to all of you, by the way) This chapter one goes into way more detail on the sexings, if that's your bag, you sick little monkeys!
Hmmm. Somehow that last sentence turned into a Ren Hoek quote.
Anywhay, now that that's out of the way, I'm going to get writing a story about a certain beagle and a certain... thing with a green tongue.
After that, who knows? Maybe I'll continue the Dave/Kelly saga, or maybe I'll write the story in my head about the guy who gets raped* by his own computer.
You never know.
REVISTA SOBRE.
*It's okay though, he starts to like it, like he was a girl in a Japanese cartoon or something.

Visuality
Posted 17 years agoAs I'm sure I've mentioned about four million times on nice pics, sometimes I wish I was a more traditional artist, rather than a writer. Writing's not particularly visual, you see. "Picture's worth a thousand words" and all that. I had this thought today that if I were an artist, I would draw a sketch of Vincent every day for a month, as a different person each time, and the only thing that would stay the same would be the green tongue, the only part of the pic in colour. I'm not really the commissioning type, and I'm not the type to bother artists to do such a project for free, and I'm certainly not going to subject you all to my horrible sketches. I know where my talents lie, and I accept the fact that my writing is a hell of a lot better than my drawing.
Please don't interpret this as a mind-game thing to guilt people into doing this for me, I wasn't kidding when I said I would never ask anyone to do it for free. I'm just venting really.
