Man, Digg people are dumb. Or should I say most of the commentors are way stupid, like so stupid they paid for they myspace account. It got like 600 Diggs so that means at least some of them are pretty good.
One of my favorite stupid things people do on Internet is type "CAN I HAVE MY 30 SECONDS BACK." Dude, you're dicking around on internet, it's not like you were gonna do anything worthwhile with that 30 seconds. |

It feels sort of weird not being at Comic-Con when everybody else is. I was kinda expecting to be a bit sadder than I am, but things changed. First time we went was 2001, with just me and Rich and Johnny as spectators and it was so exciting and new. Then the next year we exhibited at small press and it was so much fun!
Then it got bigger and bigger and more difficult each year until last year to me it really felt like just going through the motions. Completely expected stress. Not having a new book ready because of all the time spent on other junk.
I feel like there's a way to make it fun like it was at first. I think what I need to do to get that moving is get TopatoCo completely autonomous. Then become a "creator" again. I'm a cartoonist, dangit.
Time to restart! Which reminds me...
Poll #1228622 Wigu Vs OC

Let me be clear nothing is going on "hiatus" again, I'm just trying to iron out a better schedule that's fairer to myself and the social life I once had. |

Once upon a time Guillermo del Toro thought to himself, "Hey I got a bunch of rubber skin and fake eyeballs and feathers and shit left over from Pan's Labyrinth."
And with that, they made Hellboy 2.
The end.
FUN FACTS: Selma Blair was not technically conscious at any time during the filming of Hellboy 2, and the Hellboy/Abe drunk scene was 100% improvised.

I just got an email from someone asking if I was at some point, in fact, a police officer.
For the record I am not, nor have I ever been a police officer. |

God dangit I just found some scripts I had written that I was missing for Wigu where him an Hugo go into a "scary ride" but it's just a trick to get them into a "Hell House" type thing but instead of being about Jesus it was more about the Buckle People and their Protestant Scientologist ways.
This was some pretty good stuff too I think but who knows...
Susan has special feelings for a boy, but unless she intends to procreate, she’d better just put a cork in it, so to speak.
What happened to Timmy?
He used the phone on a Tuesday… and Lord Xenu doesn’t like it when you use the phone on a Tuesday.
Oh my goodness Charlie what’s going on in there
Throwing up my guts
Why
Because I touched myself
...maybe it wasn't so good, maybe the Lord was looking out for me.
Oh well can't go back now!

I should probably take a moment to mention that I am not going to San Diego Movie TV Celebrity Star Trek Comic Con this year. I'm actually sort of excited about not going. I may not go next year. If I do go again I'm just gonna set up a little personal table with artwork and books and stuff.
I wanna go to APE and stuff like that.
OH YEAH. I am going to Connecticon. Me and Aaron Diaz are gonna have a booth. |

Sometimes, and by sometimes I mean basically all the time, when I'm tryin' to fall asleep my stomach drops and I get a sick feeling because I'm suddenly fully aware that I'm gonna die someday. Everything as I know it is gonna be over, just like how it was before I was born.
Then I read something like this and it's actually somehow sort of comforting. I'm not sure how it works, but it works. Good night. |

Picked up at a 99c shop. A HIDDEN MESSAGE? Somebody call fox news.
It looks like sometime around 10pm last night the new TopatoCo hit 10,000 orders. The site launched on Valentime's Day.

Dang I'm glad ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) goldfwinch told me you don't have to pay sales tax on clothing sales in MA before I filed for this quarter (still haven't filed for q01 for 2008 anyway). Also why don't you have to pay sales tax on clothing? I'm not complaining but it doesn't make very much sense.
I have the worst accountant. I wonder if I can get back what I accidentally paid in so far?
PS You don't have to pay sales tax on t-shirts in MA
but you do on bathing caps
But you don't on neckties
But you do on handkerchiefs
But you don't on costumes
But you do on bowling shoes
It's nice how it all makes perfect sense.

This is one of the first things I saw today (thanks hey_friend), and the day hasn't really improved much since then.
Off the top of my head I can think of 78,554 things you can spend your money on to "support the troops" than a thing made in an overseas factory that will make your neighbors justifiably want to fucking murder you. |

 At long last we have absolute, definitive proof of the existence of Bigfoot. Oh wait, I mean another lonely insane person further damaging the credibility of the study and search for this noble creature.
I'm going to pretend that Live Free or Die Hard was just a non-canon high-budget fan movie.
There is a New Wigu Comic today that is about Ray Parker Jr.
I'm going to start a grassroots effort for telecom immunity.
WHAT DO WE WANT? LEGAL IMMUNITY FOR PREDATORY BILLION DOLLAR COMPANIES
WHEN DO WE WANT IT? RETROACTIVELY, SIX MONTHS PRIOR TO NINE ELEVEN |

If you are like me and have crunchy boners every time you think about Google Earth and Crop Circles this is basically like when you accidentally saw a Playboy "Wet and Wild" video when you were 13 years old, or if you are a girl like the first time you noticed that boys are mad gullible.
I just noticed there is kind a cruddy song on that, just turn it down and listen to your Jennifer Lopez or whatever it is you listen to.
I gotta get that good at Google Earth. |
