And then things got worse.

Journal Entry: Mon Nov 16, 2009, 1:42 PM


Don't loose faith yet, my dearies. I'll be back. I'm thinking I'll just head over to my parents house when I return from Florida on Saturday and scan the stuff I have now and at least do SOMETHING with it. I can't verify that anything will be coloured, though.

I've made a sad conclusion, as much as I appreciate my Wacom tablet, I feel that its disconnection is more of an impediment to my actual skills. From the time I purchased the tablet to the time my computer committed suicide, I did not draw on paper. Period. But once that happened, I went out, picked up a tablet, and to my astonishment everything exploded into this "how am I this good on paper and that shitty on the computer?" sort of deal. To say the least, I shit bricks.

That being said, I haven't touched my tablet since. I'm convinced it's the devil of electronics. Well, haha, perhaps not THAT insanely against it, but hey, I'll try colouring some pre-lined stuff and see how it goes from there. It's safe to say I'm personally disgusted with my own gallery. Not that it's bad, but it is. Seriously. Like poop on a stick.

So if anything, you all shall be seeing a few rough sketch scans if worst comes to worst, but if all things go according to plan, you might actually get to see something cool. And coloured. With makes me giggle inside with jolly goodness.

So like I said, don't lose faith! It won't be for a couple weeks. I have to scan it in at my parent's house, transport it home, colour it, take it back to my parents, and post it. Cause you know, I don't have webbernets. Apparently NOT paying bills does that. Who knew. Lawl.

So thanks to all of you faithful badass mofos who continued to check up on my lameness. I promise you jetpacks in return for your cool points. And art. Eventually. Keep it up.

DEUCES!


*** Oh, and on that side note with the whole Wacom dilemma, I'll be aiming my super-mutant sights toward a Cintiq this spring or summer. I must acquire a laptop first, which I'm shooting for Febuary and no later.

Alice on Ratio (A Death Note Rant)

So it has come to my attention in the last year that I have been avidly participating in Death Note activities, that there seems to be an overabundance of fans that refer to Yagami Light as "Ratio". This is something that has perplexed me, but I have spent little time actually thinking about it, and rather just concluded that it is related to the copious amounts of morons that populate this planet.

However, in light of a recent discussion with my sister, who apparently DID deduce the idiotic reasoning behind this little frustration, I have regathered my WTF Army and am ready for battle against what I have deemed to be the most silence-and-awe inducing fad of all time.

Ratio, according to my sis, and this is incredibly plausible, is a mispronunciation of 'Light' by the Japanese accent. Now, it seems that rabid anime fangirls, in a misguided attempt to either be cute, sound smart, or 'out-dork' their equally annoying buddies, have cleverly decided to pronounce it with this Japanese accent we have seen in the dubs. It sounds a little bit like 'Ratio' (not in the literal form of the word) due to the fact that the Japanese alphabet contains no 'L', nor an 'R', but a misconjumbled mush of the two. So when a Japanese-speaking voice actor says "Light", as it is only pronounced in its English format, it involves a little bit of accenting. Now we can assume (without making asses of ourselves ;) that fans are only pronouncing it this way for one of the three reasons previously listed. My bit on this?

Shut the fuck up and say 'Light', you idiotic wannabe pansies. You sound like a douche, and you are probably an idiot, and you're confusing the hell out of people who don't really take the time to figure out WHY in god's name you are calling someone by a name that isn't theirs. You fucking suck dick. Fat throbbing dick.


GAWD.
