fluffy: Hee hee, I know, I could do a comic about Mussolini... where the trains are using time as fuel. [Shoveling clocks?] And then he's all "That's not what I meant!"
fluffy: I'll save this for when I have time to draw.
[[One week later]]
fluffy: Oh hey, a new xkcd... "Thyme?"
xkcd: "Corns, leaves, spices..." "Spices? Really?" "Sure-- Mussolini made the trains run on thyme."
For the record, I don't normally sit at the computer naked, though I do often use the computer while wearing just my plaid bathrobe so maybe that's what I'm symbolizing there? Who knows!
Anyway. When I get back to Seattle I have a few journal comics I could do, and then I have an idea of doing a metaphorical retelling of the last two years. And then I could, uh, I guess work on Unity and Pernicious and stuff.
Procrastination!? (yeah I have a stack of unfinished FOR YOUR ONLY pages sitting on my desk, what of it!?)
So metaphorical auto-biography? As in "Today I was working on Pokemon Firetruck Rally and Shigeru Miyomoto came in and I had to arm-wrestle him" And have a little lexicon/Stan Lee box: [ Shigeru Miyomoto represents unrealistc deadlines!~ Feverishly overworked Fluffy. ]That would make for good entertainment.
I was drinking heavily when I posted so I guess I rescind my KXCD guy needs to be raped repeatedly in the mouth. It was kind of a Screw Flanders moment. I still don't care much for his work, so.. maybe just an occasional mouth rape.
No, like, a journey along the Amazon river to find the princess's lost treasure. All of the cast of characters I encountered along the way map themselves perfectly to the sorts of people and creatures one would expect to find on such a journey, and secret project names also lend themselves perfectly to objects and character names.
