I'D RATHER NOT EPISODE 43

I'd Rather Not is going bi-weekly now instead of weekly.

All Your Base Are Belong To Us!


And, in early gamer cringe, I give to you, Gurlz N' Gamez!


Mr. Burns Completely Invincible


"Under the circumstances, I'd Rather Not"

The definition of Indestructible according to Magic The Gathering:

• 702.12. Indestructible
  • 702.12a Indestructible is a static ability.
  • 702.12b A permanent with indestructible can’t be destroyed. Such permanents aren’t destroyed by lethal damage, and they ignore the state-based action that checks for lethal damage (see rule 704.5g).
  • 702.12c Multiple instances of indestructible on the same permanent are redundant.

-The Magic 8-Ball is even a better lover than Steve Bannon.



This debate basically boiled down to this:

Echo Chamber Recap Episode 135

THE PREFERRED BAND OF US GARFIENDS IN THE GARFANDOM IS GAWRFIELD


-The lead singer is Odieus Urungus. Also in the band is Nermalus Erectus, Pookielus Maximus and Jonmak the Gusha.

That's ricotta cheese shooting out of Odie's nose.

-Guacamelee is a very fun game so far. Even when though I'm not that far in, the aestechtic is enough to give me plenty to look at.

-In this week's edition of "I swear I'm not crazy, this exists", Pearls Before Swine:

This could be a dope rap.

For newspaper comics, you take what you can get, and Pearls Behind Swine did the impossible by eliciting a sensible chuckle every now and then. Oddly enough, there was enough a Rugrats daily strip around the time the first movie came out. It wasn't terrible, and I was old enough to still like the cartoon.

But the comics even 8 year old me hated qualify for the worst, like we can agree Family Circus is grade-A bullshit, right? FUCK YOU JEFFY!!!

-I could spent HOURS talk about all the memes and nuances in the Garfandom and the most popular Garfiction writers and ships (NERDIE (Nermal/Odie) OTP (One True Pairing) 4 (for) LIFE!!! (the period in which a being is considered alive (not dead))), but a true Garfiend like me knows that the best place to start would be LASAGNA CAT.

-SNOOD is basically Puzzle Bobble/Bust-A-Move. You launch shit at same colored shit and you gotta do it before they go down. The website says that it's for the GBA and PDA. Yeah...

-GIANT BOMB PLAYS... ROCKET LEAGUE!

West coast = Best coast?

-And last, but not least, the Buck Bumble theme, part of my mixtape called "Booty Jams To Fuck To Vol. 7"

Status Quo Sunday Gives You An Early Christmas Present

The cover to Status Quo Radio!

Big ups to Mervyn McCoy of PaperLab Studios, this was awesome. 

You can check out the comic series that's being collected in a trade paperback in January, Giant Robot Warrior Maintenance Crew.

Also, I'm a track ahead of schedule, so I might put out some new music soon. I got a lot of concepts on the docket.

I wanted to have my UltraCon Video up, but that fell by the wayside. :(

Changeling Guest Comic Song

Guys! Want to get introduced to a new comic AND hear a new song by me?

CHANGELING GUEST COMIC PAGE 2: The Case of the Changeling Song

WAY BETTER THAN THIS SONG:

Master Debating

All right, so,
1. It's been a while since my last post, and 2. For someone makes nerd friendly music, I don't really talk about "nerd stuff" much. I guess I don't have much time to post anyways, so that kind of falls by the wayside.

-Now kids, once upon a currently, there was a show called "Young Justice". My brother liked it, and I haven't seen an animated superhero show since Batman Beyond. We were looking for something to do in the lead up to Christmas, and this filled that void. It's good, and if you're familiar with DC Lore, I'd recommend it. Even for a neophyte such as myself, I get a lot out of it.

So I forget when, but in I think the 5th or 6th episode, there was a character called "Sportsmaster", a mercenary wearing a hockey mask resembling that of a skull. It was interesting, because the name sounded a lot like Taskmaster, a skull faced mercenary. I rock Tasky's logo on my guitar (it helps with covers), so the similarity was enough to check out Sporty's (new nickname) "deal". Now, despite the name similarities, the two are quite different.

You see, Sportsmaster is a skull masked mercenary with "photographic reflexes", the ability to replicate someone else's movements, who's under DC, and Taskmaster is skull masked mercenary with "photographic reflexes", the ability to replicate someone else's movements, who's under Marvel. BIG DIFFERENCE.

-Speaking of which, TM was on this past Sunday's "Ultimate Spiderman", and HOLY CRAP IS THAT SHOW OBNOXIOUS. I get it's not for me, but my God, it's like a Disney show on fast forward. The cutaways can really break the flow, and at a point it doesn't become a cohesive presentation, it's just things.

Though Coulson and Stan Lee cameos were pretty badass.


But I'm not watching that show again.

-Trials Evolution. Get it. It's only $15.

-Changeling, a comic by friend of the Bastard, Koltreg, is really starting to hit its stride. I also have a song in the works for it, so you might be able to hear that.

-AXE COP IS GETTING IT'S OWN TV SHOW!!

That's it for nerdy stuff! See you next time when I'll most up music videos or crushingly depressing news.
