3 little words, so hard to say

Unsuccessful troll is unsuccessful.

Business as Usual

This is what I deal with on a day-to-day basis

Sexy Time

So Alone

The Untimely Demise of the Treacherous Jungle Path

Tissue Advertising

This had to happen eventually

Shit hit the fan

A comic I'll probably never finish, so why not take a peek at how they look before they get pretty:

Guarding

There's nothing like some guy flying willy nilly over a base while you watch helplessly from the gaurd tower to make you feel useless

This one doesn't really have a point

but then again none of them do

COMICS FOR YOUR FACE

Rastas

I have discovered the reason that the army is all for short hair on men:

Traitor Cat

The world's meekest officer

Allow me to introduce you to the world's meekest officer. In contrast to our commander, I don't think she has ever raised her voice, even if only to be heard in a loud crowded room.

One time she got me a croissant when she went to buy some food, but she could only find some slightly squashed ones:

As you can see, she felt pretty bad about that - it was really cute.

Having seen this example, you can imagine my surprise when she called to ask me for a favour:

World's meekest officer, there is hope for you yet!

(I'll be honest, that second comic feels a little rushed to me. Like there should be a few more panels with me running around being excited or something. But it's too late now...)

Pep Talk

True story.

I tidied my room while waiting for this to upload...
There may be upsides to a shoddy internet connection.

Peggle

woohoo

Editing Movies

PRE-EMPTIVE TL;DR WARNING: This post is long

Occasionally I am asked to supervise the production of some movie for my department. The reason for this is not clear, as I have not studied media nor have any experience in this field. All the same, the task falls on me.

Now, that doesn't mean I have to do the work. Not in theory, anyways - there is a separate department dedicated to doing all this stuff, a department full of people who have passed relevant courses. Unfortunately it appears these people are semi retarded, not to mention lazy - I could figure out how to use their software and make a better movie than them in the time it takes them to squabble over who has to deal with the work this time (and once someone is chosen, you have to stick with that one person regardless of how little of their precious time they can spare you). The one time I did try to get something done by myself however, I was reprimanded. So, so much for that.

So, I find myself watching over some primitive reminder that we are indeed descended from apes as she clicks hopelessly at the raw material, quietly cursing the fact that from all the options available to her in this powerful software, the best she can come up with is fade in/out and the occasional badly timed cut. Any attempts at input or helpful advice ("don't cut there, it looks ridiculous") are disregarded because I, of course, have not passed the prestigious editing courses they have - making my presence there all the less meaningful. This will go on for a few days, with me essentially babysitting these wastes of salary without contributing anything until somehow the project is finished. At the end of this I am given partial credit for the movie, something which I would rather not have. 

...

Background over, story begin:

I was meant to go out on a kinda sorta date with someone [the "wild physicist"] recently. Half an hour before I was set to leave, and with him already waiting somewhere an hour away, these imbeciles remember to call me down to finish something super urgent. Something that could not be put off until the next day.

Very well, thus I - for we have already edited everything, I continue to assure myself, and this is a mere issue of finishing touches, which shall surely not hamper my timely departure from the base, I conclude. Ah, optimism. 

I sit down with them to only to discover that our work has mysteriously vanished. At some point over a span of 48 short hours, some buffoon managed to sift through the disorganised mess on their computers and, in the confusion, delete not only the edited movie but also the original clips.

  "No matter," says my commander upon this discovery, before aiming a charming Moroccan saying at me, the innocent victim of this all: "Where there isn't a brain, there are legs."

And so off I go in search of the original clips.

And then there I stay an hour overtime* while we make the movie from scratch.

And then off I go, in the rain, to the poor physicist who's been waiting for an hour in some random place with nothing to do.

That kinda-sorta-date went well, but... well, more on that later.

Rushed rant over.

And now, an attempt to capture my frustration in watercolour! I will speak no more of this department (for now).

Enjoy
