That was just awesome overflow from your current job into the past. Your body just wouldn't be able to handle it all at one time, so they spread it out.

Michael Bay won't stop beating my inner child.  :(

Well, Michael Bay will be Michael Bay. There's a small chance that, if we're lucky, he's building on a familiarity with their little-known dark and edgy origins?

I'll just quote myself from the WTF thread:
Seriously, everything wrong with TMNT can be summed up with the word "aliens."

The worst issues of the original comic book series were the ones where they were in outer space or fighting space aliens. The best issues were when they were more down to earth, figuratively and literally. They had a damn good subplot about not fitting in due to being "freaks," but half the writers ignored that in favor of laser guns and space battles.

Lacking aliens and weirdness was why the first live action movie was the best. Having such is why the original cartoon's strength was in wackiness, not any serious themes.

They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Ok I am going to be honest, I never felt strongly about the Turtles. Seriously, they were loud, obnoxious pizza eating reptiles that solved confrontation with martial arts. There was nothing in that I could relate to, or admire.

However, looking at that, it is just gritty enough to swing into full parody and attract my interest. I think I would read that, or at least try.

The first issues are free to read over the wondrous conveyer of information known as the ....

*looks for a link*

The crap? Aww looks like Mirage Comics took them down off their website. They were free a year or so ago when I read them! Oh well.



The obnoxiousness and pizza eating came from the cartoon. The original comics were dark, gritty, occasionally brilliant, occasionally terrible. Most faithful adaptation of them was the first live action movie.

Was just reading some of the things I posted on the internet when I first became active back in 2007.

Jesus Christ I was an idiot, for a very long time. And I'm pretty sure that means that in two years I'm going to be thinking the same thing about me, right now. I'm not looking forward to discovering exactly why I'm a twat right now.

Could be worse; could look back and see that you were a better person. 'Lease you know you're improving, rather than degrading.

Well. My dog just died today, at 1:30 AM. Despite the rain, me and my family manged to bury him.

I have an emptiness inside.

One thing to always remember about a dog, is that so long as you were around it and gave it affection when it died, it was happy. It was likely in pain, but so long as it's master was there with it at the time or was with it before it slept, it was as happy as can be. There is no reason you should not feel the same way.

I wish I never read http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1120 reminds me of the "noise" I see in the dark.

I'm scared :O no sleep tonight again.
Don't be. I've actually been halfway tempted to start up a visual snow thread to see how many other folks here have it/have experienced it.

It took my almost two decades to realize that it wasn't how most other people saw the world, heh. I'm semi-lucky as it didn't onset for me; seem to have been born with it. A lot less distracting when it's the only thing you know, yeah.

But yeah the dark was fucking terrifying for a long time. Giant multicolored amoeba-things larger than you floating around is not conducive to untroubled sleep. Eventually figured out they weren't going to eat me, though!

If that happens to me at all it's usually when my eyes are adjusting to low-light conditions from being outside. Some times I'll even see little floating particles in my peripheral vision at these times. Like dust particles, but shining and winking out of sight as they enter my field of view with strange, dancing, swerving movements.

Actually, this sounds a lot like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-sky_sprites or floaters after reading the article, and here I was hoping that I was special. :( Ho-hum

My PS3 just died on me, and I have three games on pre-order that are released today. I am pretty upset.

I've had visual floaters for years (started when I was young), in part because thanks to certain genetic flaws, bits of my retina have been flaking off over time. I'm sad because in reading the Wiki entry on floaters, I came across the entry for "ocular herpes". I could have lived a full and happy life without ever knowing that was a condition that was possible to have.  :o

THAT DOESN'T GO THERE!!  :'(

I'm trying to figure out how you'd catch it...is it the same virus as genital herpes?

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.
